Her father was Tao Yúan (道円, also known as "Tao En"), and her mother was Ran with her being the older sister to her brother Tao Ren. After her fathers death, she and her brother began to live with their uncle who was training Ren to participate in the Shaman Tournament.

Jun and Tamao fight against Hana-gumi in order to defend Redseb and Seyrem until Mikihisa shows up. During the fight was is revealed that Bailong received an 'upgrade' of sorts after being defeated by En, in the form of a piston in his right arm which greatly increases his punching power.

She later became an apprentice of Sati due to her knowledge of human anatomy allowing her to revive people.

Jun's control over him was maintained through he use of Jufu talismans causing him to follow her commands. This later changed after she lost a battle against Yoh Asakura where her entire view of spirits changed as she saw them as having hearts as well and that they could not just be controlled.
