"Feixing mercenaries and the Death Valley assassins are really here since boss ties them through (the deceased) Ji Lin… and Jiu-jie is the Death Valley's current leader, Ji Ren's sweetheart."

Meanwhile, the ones left of the Death Valley assassins remained in Huichen to help them out, at the same time protecting them.
