In an early issue, Bou Tin gets into a fight with one of the members of the Tong Men Hui. After killing him, he picks him up and takes him to a cave. Uknown to Bou Tin, Bou Keng Wan (Cloud) follows. After putting down the slain man, Bou Tin shocks his father by biting into the victim. It is thought that Bou Tin himself had turned into a cannibal or suffered from a blow by Yi Fung's Evil King Sword. It is later revealed that Bou Tin is not a cannibal or suffered from the Evil King.

Bou Tin had gotten into a fight with two men. He had no intentions on killing them, but he did anyway. He had a felt a lot of pain since returning to China and killing relieved him of it. He felt even more relieved when he tasted their blood. Since this, Bou Tin would seek out victims to kill and taste their blood to keep his pain under control. Cloud is at ease when he learns his son isn't killing for pleasure. Cloud vows to help Bou Tin and decides to take him to the Magic Healer Shen Yi. Along the way, Cloud and Bou Tin are met with heavy resistance from the Alliance. Cloud tells them that he will fight to help his son, but the Alliance doesn't allow them to pass. Cloud fights with several of them and blood from the men falls on Bou Tin's face. Bou Tin can't hold his urge any longer and runs away.

He finds a young boy on an ox going through the water. Bou Tin immediately tries to fight the urge and succeeds barely. Instead of the boy, he attacks the ox. With this, every good left in Bou Tin leaves and he now has become neutral to those in the martial world.
