It's Safe With the Emperor's Security Detail's Hu Po Here

　　"Zhong Ning, come in!" Nan junfei chuckled indifferently as he faced the emperor who sat up and said: "I must introduce you to my brother Zhong Ning. your highness. He's ranked fourth in our group, Mystery. His martial arts skills are inferior to mine, but his evilness far exceeds the three of us. While the other three of us do admit to committing evil, we only take on a.s.sa.s.sination or sabotage jobs from the rich.

　　My brother, Zhong Ning however, is a rare to come by evil sp.a.w.n that's been around for decades. He kills, robs and rapes women. There's no atrocity he doesn't commit. He's bloodthirsty. Our former master and servant relations.h.i.+p would not be complete if I don't introduce you to such a peculiar individual."

　　The emperor sat up but still couldn't muster up any strength. There wasn't a single hint of capitulation in his eyes, but he struggled to ask: "Why? Yes, you came from the pugilistic world, but you are just and brave. I took you in without questioning you when you came to offer your services to me back then. I've never treated you as a servant despite you entering the palace to work as a servant. I treated you as a hero nonetheless. Nan Junfei, ask yourself, when and where did I wrong you? Why are you betraying me?"

　　"You didn't wrong me. Of course you didn't!" Nan Junfei's gaze changed. He exclaimed: "You're a saint. A great emperor that is proficient in literacy and martial arts. You're an emperor that is superior to the previous emperors, so naturally, you never wronged me. But I became reduced to a eunuch because of you!"

　　The emperor frowned and replied: "You already did it to yourself when you came to offer your services to me back then, and told me yourself that you wanted to enter the palace as a eunuch. I never forced you to, so how did I force you?"

　　"Of course you don't remember. You're busy with thousands of things every day. How would you have time to remember these minor matters? In your eyes, my life is but a sentence on your doc.u.ments." Nan Junfei glared at the emperor aggressively and then explained in an enraged voice: "Fifteen years ago, I offered my serves to the Nine Rivers Sect. Someone reported to Liu Shan Men that our group was planning to revolt. With just one written decree from you and Liu Shan Men's Yan s.h.i.+san immediately led his men to eradicate our Nine Rivers Sect.

　　Heh, skilled fighters of the imperial, big shots, huh? A huge sect was eradicated in half a day. All those who resisted were killed. Those captured were subjected to the punishments in the palace. I didn't castrate myself. I was castrated after I was captured as a prisoner!"

　　"Nine Rivers Sect… Nine Rivers Sect……" The emperor muttered the name several times and then blurted: "I somewhat remember that incident. There was solid evidence that the sect-leader was planning to revolt back then. Yan s.h.i.+san didn't make a wrong judgement. Why do you……"

　　Nan Junfei cut him off, shouting: "So what?! If it weren't for you and Yan s.h.i.+san, I wouldn't have become a eunuch!"

　　So it turns out Nan Junfei didn't know the sect-leader of the Nine Rivers Sect was in fact guilty. It was just that he suffered more than he could handle. He didn't care about reason. He just needed a target to vent his hatred and pain. Life in the palace for over a decade didn't reduce his hatred. To the contrary, it made him angrier and more averse to accepting the outcome, thus wanting to change his life even more.

　　Nan Junfei laughed pitifully for himself: "Heh, a hero, huh? If I truly was still a hero, I wouldn't be here today wearing these clothes and speaking to you here in the palace. Unfortunately, I'm just a eunuch, a eunuch who can only realise his dream of heroism by killing people. What's the point of the martial arts skills I possess?"

　　The emperor didn't respond. Nan Junfei's gaze turned cold. He snickered and went on: "I hate you and Yan s.h.i.+san most in this life. I couldn't kill him, but I at least got to watch him fall. You were the one who spun this coc.o.o.n around for yourself. If he was still by your side you wouldn't be in this situation now. You have treated me decently all these years, so I did want to make it swift. But you didn't want the favour. I've managed to save myself trouble. Before you experience the pain I suffered, don't even dream of having a moment to relax."
