He is a charlatan killer who kills many people. He is the commander of the emperor's secret guard.
He failed to assassinate the emperor and was stabbed by the commander of the secret guards. He fled to the ruined temple and fell into a coma, but was found by the secret guard commander. He was supposed to be separated from his head with a sword and returned to life, but because of a moment of soft-heartedness, he became entangled with him.

He patted him on the shoulder, "Hey, see you later. If you need help, go there..." He paused and changed his words: "I thought you wouldn't go there, so I give you this thing, so consider it as my repayment of gratitude. With this thing, I will die even if I go up to the mountain of swords or the sea of fire."
He didn't want to answer it at first, but after hearing the last word, he took it with a thought. He would not give up even if he died, he repeated these words carefully.
…
He covered his waist injury but it was of no use. Scarlet still flowed from his fingers and fell to the ground in drops. The subtle sound of dripping water was like thunder in his ears. I saw him inhaling painfully, but without making a sound. His body was also shaky, as if he would fall to the ground in the next second.
He walked up to him and took out the pendant he had given him, "Didn't you say that if I need your help in something, I will fight to the death even if I have to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire?"
He finally raised his head and looked at him, and he could clearly see the stubbornness and resentment in his eyes. In fact, he felt that he had gone too far. He had clearly stabbed the shoulder injury, yet he shamelessly took out the pendant to ask for the oath.
He smiled. "I won't give up even if I die..."
"Can it still count?"
The two looked at each other, and he watched as those clear and beautiful eyes gradually became foggy. His throat suddenly felt sore, and he clenched his fists to keep himself calm.
Deny it. As long as you say nothing, I will let you go immediately.
He waited with bated breath for a long while before he heard a sigh.
…
"Count."
