"Congratulations to the host for signing in and obtaining the Sunflower Manual."
Chu Fan's new day began with the crisp system notification sound. When he woke up, he saw the monthly sign-in button on the system interface, which filled him with anticipation.
Chu Fan clicked the sign-in button without hesitation, looking forward to what kind of surprise the system would bring him.
However, when the name of the sign-in reward item appeared on the screen, Chu Fan couldn't believe his eyes. Sunflower Manual? This was outrageous! He even wondered if he had seen it wrong. But the large, glittering golden characters on the screen clearly told him that it was indeed the Sunflower Manual.
Chu Fan's mood instantly became complicated. He picked up the book the system had given him as a reward, opened the first page, and saw eight large characters: "To practice this skill, you must first castrate yourself."
These eight words seemed to mock him, leaving him feeling heartbroken. Chu Fan couldn't help but shed tears. He felt like he'd been severely teased by the system. This martial arts manual was powerful, but he really didn't want to practice it.
Just the day before, in order to cheer up Yu Huatian who saved his life, Chu Fan painted a big rosy picture for him, telling him that even if he became a eunuch, there would be endless glory waiting for him in the future.
Unexpectedly, the system was so "considerate" and directly gave him the Sunflower Manual.
Chu Fan thought to himself, if the system wasn't monitoring him, then such a coincidence wouldn't be possible. He even began to wonder if the system was deliberately playing a trick on him, putting him in this awkward situation.
As if sensing Chu Fan's deep dissatisfaction and complaints, the system suddenly displayed a line of text in front of him:
All items in the system are obtained through random sampling, and there is absolutely no backpack detection or monitoring of user behavior.
Chu Fan couldn't help but continue to complain in his heart: "If you really didn't monitor my inner thoughts, how could you know what I was thinking at this moment?"
After Chu Fan finished complaining about these things in his mind, the system seemed to fall into silence and there was no response.
Chu Fan was even more dissatisfied, and continued to complain in his heart: "Don't play dead, come out and explain everything clearly."
At this moment, a female voice with a slightly clipped tone suddenly sounded in Chu Fan's mind: "Brother, I'm only eighteen years old." The voice sounded a little childish and a little naughty, as if trying to resolve the dissatisfaction and doubts in Chu Fan's heart in this way.
Chu Fan was complaining wildly in his heart. He felt extremely angry and helpless about the system which had no entity.
He mentally questioned the system loudly, "Do these systems of yours still distinguish between genders? Regardless of whether you're male or female, could you please stop monitoring my daily life? Do you hear me?"
At this moment, a subtitle suddenly appeared in front of Chu Fan, as if responding to his question.
The subtitles read: "Got it. You're a piece of shit who can't even complete a simple task, and you dare to ask me for something? You're such a loser."
Chu Fan's face turned red instantly when he heard this. He felt deeply insulted.
Was it really his own fault that he couldn't complete the task? It was the ministers and princes in the court who were always incompetent and always let him down.
Chu Fan felt that he had given them countless opportunities to rebel, but they had disappointed him every time. Chu Fan felt that he had tried his best, but those ministers and princes were always indifferent. What else could he do?
The system subtitles appeared again: What's the point of finding more excuses? You're just a piece of crap anyway. I'm ignoring you.
After displaying this sentence, no matter how Chu Fan provoked the system in his heart, the system remained silent and no longer responded to him.
After careful consideration, Chu Fan decided to give the mysterious martial arts manual, the Sunflower Manual, to Yu Huatian, asking him to study it first to see if he could practice it. Chu Fan himself was determined not to practice this martial arts manual because he did not want to lose the joy of being a man.
When Chu Fan handed the Sunflower Manual to Yu Huatian, Eunuch Li suddenly asked Chu Fan, "Your Majesty, can we eunuchs also practice this technique?"
Chu Fan did not refuse Eunuch Li's request. After all, Eunuch Li had helped him a lot since he came to this era, so it was reasonable for him to show him this technique.
In addition, considering that Yuhuatian is currently in need of a master with superb martial arts skills to guide him, Eunuch Li, with his profound martial arts attainments, is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
After examining the Sunflower Manual, Eunuch Li was deeply attracted by the internal energy and martial arts techniques contained therein. This technique seemed to be tailor-made for eunuchs.
In particular, the martial art "Using Qi to Control Needles" can be described as a unique skill that can take people's lives invisibly. For those who do not understand its moves, they cannot defend against sudden attacks at all.
Chu Fan noticed that Eunuch Li was fascinated and said to him, "Little Li, the instruction of Yu Huatian is now in your hands. I hope you can teach him all the skills you have mastered."
After Chu Fan left, Eunuch Li immediately took the Sunflower Manual to Wei Zhongxian. After reading the Sunflower Manual, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but exclaimed:
"When you came to see me last night, I thought Your Majesty had only fabricated this story about the invincible manual to restore Yu Huatian's confidence. I never expected Your Majesty to actually produce this treasured manual today. It seems I underestimated Your Majesty."
Eunuch Li suggested, "Should we report this to the elders of the royal family?"
Wei Zhongxian glared at Eunuch Li sternly and retorted, "This technique is only suitable for eunuchs. Do you want all the princes of the royal family to become eunuchs?
You have to understand that even the most upright gentleman, when encountering a bottleneck in his cultivation, would not have evil thoughts if he saw a manual like this? Have you ever considered how much damage this would cause to the reputation of the imperial family if the princes became eunuchs?
Wei Zhongxian then continued, "Didn't you hear His Majesty mention yesterday a sword technique even more powerful than the Sunflower Manual, called the Dugu Nine Swords? Since His Majesty possesses the Sunflower Manual, does he also possess the Dugu Nine Swords?"
Eunuch Li found Wei Zhongxian's inference unbelievable. As a person with no talent for martial arts, could His Majesty really perform such supreme swordsmanship?
But if you think about it carefully, since His Majesty can take out such a powerful secret book as the Sunflower Manual, it is not impossible for him to take out the sword manual of the Dugu Nine Swords.
