Dude is an absolute serial killer. He just collecting trophies. I won't lie though when he was down there I was…
He was set up to enter that room, he was tested by the marquis, otherwise why would you think the marquis casually gives him free access to enter his study whenever he wants? He wanted to see his reaction after finding what's in the secret room... Marquis is not a simpleton.
I suspect that his old friend isn't good man anymore and ZH may fall with his trust on him
Here's some perplexities I have: When the Marquis killed Zinu's clansmen, they knew how many people there were exactly. So, the numbers don’t add up. How didn't they not noticed that Gaofeng was missing? Why didn’t the Marquis of Pingjin look for him? They even vent so far as to kill the neighbors but left out that child. Also, I suspect Zhinu’s family has been under surveillance all along. They should’ve known Guan Feng was punished and sent to chop wood on the mountain, so why didn’t they catch him then? My suspicion is, it's all an experiment, one was taken and trained, the other left to grow up freely. Either way, both would eventually return to the Marquis’s residence. Each is being watched by different factions, and it’s a test to see who’s more capable of finding the missing seal. So I think Gao Feng is Marquis' puppet.
About Guanfeng, the childhood friend, how/from where did he learned to skin people off? Was he adopted by the one who skinned Zhinu's parents? Did he learned from Zang Hai's worst enemy? I have this heavy foreboding...
