I don't think people will appreciate Mc being too rough with the girls
It is common in wuxia novels
The man was there mainly to confuse the readers who the real mc is; especially those that don't read the synopsis. If you want to look at it deeper, I can say he was there to show how cruel the world is as it will take some time before the mc leaves the sect. He was also to show how power can easily change a person's personality, other than that. He won't be relevant. As for your second question, Hong Lin mysteriously killed the man and the spirit was captured. The man won't be relevant but the spirit will, hope this clears your questions.
