The court lackeys of the eight-hour workday

Chapter 344 Inferiority
The middle-aged eunuch was truly panicked and genuinely afraid.

No one could remain calm while having their neck bitten and feeling their flesh being swallowed bit by bit—except perhaps Li Miao, who might have been even more excited.

The middle-aged eunuch let out a scream like a woman, his hands and legs completely out of control, and kept hitting Gu Feixuan's broken body.

Gu Feixuan was like a tattered flag, his mouth tightly gripping his neck, his body constantly being knocked up and down, flesh and blood falling out from his abdomen.

But he didn't budge an inch. He even used his only remaining, broken left hand to grab the middle-aged eunuch's neck, his teeth digging deeper and deeper into the eunuch's flesh.

"Ahhh—gaha!"

The middle-aged eunuch's screams abruptly stopped.

Gu Feixuan had already bitten through his trachea, and blood poured into it, silencing him.

Just one bite, and if Gu Feixuan takes another bite, he will surely die.

Faced with life and death, he unleashed a power far exceeding his usual strength, channeling all his inner energy and throwing a desperate punch at Gu Feixuan's chest!
*Splash!*
It pierced through Gu Feixuan's chest!
Gu Feixuan's vision went black, and he felt as if a hole had been opened in his body—which was indeed the case. The strength he had forcibly mustered flowed out of that hole and poured onto the ground.

That's it for now.

He did a quick mental calculation and then laughed.

He held us back for exactly the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The middle-aged eunuch, unaware that he had run out of strength, still threw another punch at him with a terrified expression, landing it on his shoulder.

Gu Feixuan was sent flying backwards, landing on the ground with a thud. He didn't even have the strength to say his last words, so he could only cast a mocking glance at the middle-aged eunuch.

Then he closed his eyes and waited for death.

"Cough cough cough..."

The middle-aged eunuch coughed a few times, and seeing that Gu Feixuan had finally collapsed, he regained his senses. He reached into the wound that Gu Feixuan had torn open, plugged the puncture in his trachea with his fingers, and then spat the blood from his mouth onto the ground.

Fortunately, Gu Feixuan was eventually at his limit. Even though he risked his life, he only managed to bite a tiny hole in his trachea.

The healing techniques below the Celestial Realm have not yet reached a qualitative leap. If Gu Feixuan were to take another bite, the blood flowing into his lungs would kill him.

Just a little bit.

Fear lingered, extreme terror filled him as he turned to look at Gu Feixuan, whose eyes had already closed.

After fear and lingering dread comes extreme anger.

What are you doing?!

His speech was no longer coherent, his voice was broken, and it was filled with endless resentment.

The middle-aged eunuch covered his wound with one hand and walked quickly toward Gu Feixuan, having made up his mind—he was going to save Gu Feixuan.

He would never let Gu Feixuan die so easily!

Three days... no, a month!
Gu Feixuan is already dying, but he will use all the money and wealth he has accumulated to keep Gu Feixuan alive!

A sinister smile spread across his face.

"You look down on eunuchs... Fine."

"We'll castrate you, carve the word 'eunuch' on your face, strip you naked, and take you on a tour of... a tour of Nanjing!"

"Young Master Gu, you can't be a hero. Only those who die beautifully can be heroes. From now on, everyone who mentions you will remember you as a eunuch!"

"Our family will put that child's head in front of you. Your worthless life is worthless!"

Gu Feixuan heard his words but did not react.

The middle-aged eunuch's words did not frighten him.

From the day he was called "the idle gossip," he had already guessed his fate. But that fate came much later than he had anticipated.

He is already content.

Gu Feixuan mustered his last bit of strength, closed his eyes, and squeezed out his last words through gritted teeth.

"Rotten, rotten buttocks."

His head lolled to the side, and he completely lost consciousness.

"Fine, fine!" "You look down on us... our flaws are hidden beneath our clothes, but we'll make sure your flaws are etched on your face!"

Enraged, the middle-aged eunuch picked up the arrow that Gu Feixuan had dropped from the ground, strode over to Gu Feixuan's side, and grinned as he reached out to carve the word "eunuch" onto Gu Feixuan's face.

Just as the arrow was only an inch away from Gu Feixuan's face.

Suddenly, voices came from behind him.

“Look at Xiao Gao, this is the part you couldn’t hear.”

"I'm not going to tell you how pitiful they are."

The middle-aged eunuch's pupils suddenly contracted!

"who!?"

He was injured, and he had to cover the wound on his trachea with one hand. He could only use 30% of his martial arts skills at most, and he no longer had the confidence to fight with others.

Swish!
With a flutter of her clothes, she darted away.

"Let you go?"

The voice spoke again.

As the sound rang out, he suddenly froze in place.

He couldn't move.

A small figure ran past him and pounced on Gu Feixuan, desperately covering the large wound on his chest with its two small hands.

"Get up, you little brat."

The footsteps approached Gu Feixuan's side at a leisurely pace. Li Miao reached out, grabbed the child by the collar, and tossed him to Gao Anyu.

He then grabbed Gu Feixuan's arm and pinched his pulse.

Under the shocked gaze of the middle-aged eunuch, the flesh around Gu Feixuan's wound began to writhe and entwine as if it were alive, and the wound visibly shrank.

Li Miao didn't need to concentrate at all and turned to Gao Anyu.

"You saw everything that just happened, right?"

Gao Anyu raised his hand and pinched the neck of the crying and struggling child, knocking him unconscious, before scratching his head.

"Uncle, are you trying to tell me that there's always a reason why someone is pitiful?"

Li Miao scoffed.

"Would I do something like that, something only women would do?"

He looked up and gestured to the frozen middle-aged eunuch.

"What that eunuch just said—Gu Feixuan almost killed him, he was filled with hatred and the most vicious revenge he could think of was to turn the other party into a eunuch as well."

"That's the true nature of these eunuchs."

Li Miao slowly and deliberately uttered words that made the middle-aged eunuch's eyes widen in fury.

"Not only others, but they themselves never respected themselves. From the moment they stepped out of that room, not only their bodies were crippled, but their spirits were also broken."

"Little Gao, do you know what the most wicked and vicious nature in the world is?"

Gao Anyu shook his head.

Li Miao said, twirling his fingers.

"It's not malicious, not domineering, and not arrogant."

"Instead, it's inferiority complex."

"The underlying logic behind people's willingness to abide by morality and rules is a kind of self-acceptance."

"If a person despises himself from the bottom of his heart, then all morality and rules are meaningless to him."
