The person blocking Xiaofan was Wu Hu, Wu Long's younger brother. The two are close in age and look quite similar.
Assassins are all ruthless, but the only thing that can keep them from abandoning everything is familial love.
Their loneliness is probably something only their kind would know, so the brothers share a good bond.
Not being able to beat the opponent directly into submission left Xiaofan somewhat annoyed. If he had acted sooner, the opponent wouldn't have been able to stop him.
Xiaofan knew he was already being watched, so he kept a low profile, not wanting to be too excessive.
Amidst a series of cheers, Xiaofan walked into the backstage area and climbed the stairs to the attic.
Just arriving at the attic's corridor, a man passed by him, and the faint scent of a cologne made Xiaofan pause.
Though it was just a fleeting moment, the man who brushed past him threw him a sharp glance that sent shivers down Xiaofan's spine.
