Instead, he spoke with utter indifference.
"Lord Wei, do you still think you're the all-powerful Eunuch you once were?"
"A tavern is a place where you pay to eat; if you don't have money, you still want to eat?"
"Gonna use force, is that it? If you've got the guts, kill me—after all, I've got no parents, no wife, no kids; dying doesn't mean a thing to me. But I'm afraid when the time comes, the Embroidered Uniform Guard won't let you off, Lord Wei!"
Once he finished speaking,
he shot Wei Hongfang a final look of disdain, as if mocking how Wei Hongfang didn't dare do anything at all.
"You!"
Wei Hongfang's anger grew even greater.
Yet, he gave up the notion of taking action. After all, if he killed someone in the Imperial City, the Embroidered Uniform Guard would never turn a blind eye.
