<p>Chilling videos have emerged from the mother accused of killing her 10-year-old daughter, Sophie Wang. </p>
<p>Yingying Xu, who was named in court on Wednesday, posted a series of videos to TikTok before she allegedly murdered her daughter. </p>
<p>“I want to let everyone know that the situation you see is fake. Fake god, the antichrist is a fake god,” Xu, 46, said while speaking in Mandarin.</p>
<p>“I have felt the devil Satan saying to me how he has been influencing me, disturbing my soul.</p>
<p>“Eventually possessing me 100 per cent. Possessing my soul to do evil things.”</p>
<p>The videos were posted earlier in the day on Tuesday, and the little girl's body was found by her father, Yun Wang, later that evening.</p>
<p>Sophie is alleged to have suffered several<a href="https://www.oversixty.com.au/finance/legal/schoolgirl-identified-after-allegedly-being-murdered-by-mother" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> injuries</a>, and was allegedly killed by having her throat slashed in her Carrara home.</p>
<p>Her father, who is an associate professor at Griffith University, could reportedly be heard screaming by neighbours after discovering her body. </p>
<p>Paramedics attempted to revive the girl, but she was declared dead at the “incredibly confronting” scene.</p>
<p>Xu was arrested in a nearby street hours later and charged with murder.</p>
<p>“This is absolutely sickening, gut-wrenching, awful,” Queensland Premier Steven Miles said.</p>
<p>“I just can’t imagine how that father felt and hearing the reports of him screaming - nobody would ever wish that on him.”</p>
<p>Her mother was formally remanded in custody until she appears in court again on November 29. </p>
<p>The family's home remains a crime scene, but flowers have been left outside the home, as the local community try to come to terms with the horrific news. </p>
<p>Police are continuing to investigate the motive of the alleged murder, and are taking into account Xu's social media activity. </p>
<p>“Police are continuing to investigate the motive of the alleged homicide, including social media activity of the accused,” police told <em>7News</em>.</p>
<p>Sophie has been remembered as a caring, kind and high-achieving Year 5 student, with the local community honouring her memory in an hour-long vigil on Friday at The Boulevard in Emerald Lakes.</p>
<p>Sophie’s school, Emmanuel College, is also offering counselling to students, staff and parents.</p>
<p>“Our prayers are with the family, friends, first responders and all affected by the loss of this beloved child in her home,” the school said in a statement.</p>
