The bounty hunter, under the impression the subject's lover was merely a human given his vulnerability in the Underground, is taken off guard by the attacks. They knock the rifle from his hands, bullet firing off into the sky. Undeterred and seasoned at fighting metahumans, he pulls out a handgun and fires it twice at Lan Zhan.
It turns out to be the last thing the bounty hunter ever does.
"Wangji, look out!"
There's a flash as a blur of white trenchoat and black hair as a figure leaps down from one of the gothic buildings close by out of nowhere, which what appears to be a sword forged of pure, bluish white light in his hands. Without mercy or sound, Lan Xichen slices the man's arms off like cutting through both like sticks of butter, the limbs flopping uselessly to the ground.
The bounty hunter soon follows, completely in shock. There's no blood, the wound cauterized on contact.
Once the threat to his brother has been eliminated, Xichen strides as quickly over to the couple as he can.
"Tell me what happened while I take a look at him," he orders, gently but firmly pushing Wanji aside to make room for himself.
