So Li Yifei was just a step too late, and because of that step, he couldn't save the person being pursued. The person widened his eyes, clearly not expecting to truly die. He still held out hope, thinking they were coming to steal something. In that case, he could just give them whatever they wanted. But it turned out the other party was really just... here to kill, here to kill him!
And so he died swiftly, not even having a chance to fight back. The cold gleam pierced his heart, the poison coating it took his life instantly. Li Yifei watched as the man's body twitched for a few seconds before collapsing.
Sighing, if he had known the man in black killed so straightforwardly, he would have intervened directly, although he wasn't clear on who the person being pursued was.
