On Jhin and Zed

I think there's an important point in Zed's lore that we've forgotten about. When he enters the temple, right before he kills his old master, his lore mentions that he screams in pain before emerging completely unscathed, and seething with rage.

  1. He had no reason to kill the man YET. He was going to lead Zed to the box he wanted.
  2. He screamed in pain, but emerged unscathed- other forms of hurt than physical
  3. Why would he be angry after beheading the man he wanted to kill?

I have two thoughts on this, both somewhat related to Jhin.

  1. Zed didn't kill his master, and Jhin doesn't know.
  2. The master revealed something in relation to Jhin, sending Zed into a rage.

Thoughts?

I don't know, and we'll never know, since Riot only develops a champion's lores 1-2 times a year.

It is possible that Kusho tried to attack Zed,or that Zed killed Kusho to protect the box(after all Kusho wanted to destroy the box with Zed). Just because Zed killed kusho doesn't mean he had no emotional attachement to him,Kusho was probably like a father for zed.
