After breaking the window, Zhang Lei's expression changed drastically because he realized that the person in front of him was not a real person, but a dummy made up of a quilt.
Realizing that he had fallen into a trap, he hurriedly retreated. At this moment, a ray of Sword Qi attacked him from the right.
Caught off guard, he was stabbed by the sword. Fortunately, his movement technique was outstanding, so this sword only caused him some light injuries.
Although he could clearly sense that the person who stabbed him was only a level-2 beastman, he couldn't care less, and immediately turned around to escape.
He knew that if he stayed any longer, the level-3 beastmen in the courtyard would definitely surround him. By then, it would be difficult for him to escape.
Besides, he didn't know if the person who attacked him was his target.
"Where are you going!?"
As soon as he jumped over the wall, he heard a roar coming from the other side of the courtyard.
Clearly, a level-3 beastman had chased after him.
At this moment, he didn't dare to stop, and dashed towards the darkness ahead.
Two level-3 beastmen dashed out of the courtyard, and chased after Zhang Lei.
A young man dashed out from behind the two level-3 beastmen, and he was none other than Linlong.
Previously, the person who tried to assassinate Zhang Lei in the house was naturally Linlong. With his powerful aura, he discovered Zhang Lei who was hiding outside before Zhang Lei attacked. He then plotted to let Zhang Lei in, and suddenly launched a sneak attack.
Initially, he wanted to severely injure Zhang Lei, but he didn't expect Zhang Lei to have such quick reflexes that he actually dodged his sneak attack and escaped.
After coming out, Linlong also chased after the two level-3 beastmen.
After chasing for a while, the two level-3 beastmen returned dejectedly because they didn't manage to catch up with Zhang Lei.
As soon as they returned, they saw that the people in the courtyard had gathered in the front yard.
Master Ling looked at them directly and asked, "What happened?"
Although the people in the courtyard were alarmed, they only saw the broken window when they arrived, so they naturally didn't know what happened.
"A level-3 beastman snuck into the courtyard, and seemed to be trying to sneak an attack on someone. I don't know if he succeeded. When we came over, we only saw him jumping over the wall and escaping," one of the two level-3 beastmen said.
"The broken window belongs to Junior Brother Lin, which means that he was attacked by a level-3 beastman … Since we didn't see him in the room, it seems that Junior Brother Lin is in danger!" Zheng Le said with a frown.
"Did Lin Li disappear? We only saw the level-3 beastman escape, but we didn't see him bring anyone with him, "one of the level-3 beastmen said in confusion.
"That's strange." Master Ling couldn't help but frown.
Then, he looked at the two level-three beasts and asked, "Did you guys not catch up with that person?"
"We couldn't catch up to him. That person's movement technique was outstanding. We lost him after chasing for a while. We have no idea where he escaped to." The two Level 3 beasts shook their heads.
Right at this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard from outside the door. Everyone hurriedly turned their heads to look and a look of joy appeared on their faces. That was because the person who had walked in was none other than Linlong.
"Junior Brother Lin, I thought something happened to you," Zheng Le couldn't help but say.
"Yeah, we were scared to death."
Seeing that Lin Long was safe and sound, they couldn't help but say so.
"I just chased after that person," Lin Long said.
"You chased after that person? Why didn't we see you?" The level-3 beastmen were naturally confused.
"I went in another direction, so you guys couldn't see me," Lin Long said with a smile.
"Is that so?" The two level-3 beastmen said doubtfully.
"Junior Brother Lin, what did you find?" Zheng Le asked.
"I found that person entering the Zhang Family," Lin Long said.
"What?" Hearing Lin Long's words, everyone present was shocked.
"Lin Li, is that true?" Master Ling couldn't help but ask.
After all, it was the Zhang Family, if Lin Long was wrong, there would be negative consequences.
"But, Lin Li, how did you find that person entering the Zhang Family?" One of the level-3 beastmen asked in confusion.
They didn't even follow the person, so how could Lin Long find out that he had entered the Zhang Family? How could they not be confused?
"I took another path, and thought that I could meet him by chance. Then, to my great joy, I really saw him jump into the Zhang Family's courtyard," Lin Long said.
"That person seemed to be masked, right? How did you know it was him? "One of the level-3 beastmen asked in confusion.
"What I saw was his figure. Furthermore, I noticed a drop of blood dripping from that person's body when he flipped over and entered the Zhang family's courtyard. I injured him with my sword when he charged into my room," Linlong explained.
"Wait, he's a level-3 beastman. How did you injure him?" Hearing Lin Long's words, the two level-3 beastmen were shocked again.
They weren't the only ones. Everyone present had their eyes wide open.
How could they not be surprised that Lin Long could injure a level-3 beastman when he was so weak?
"I used the blanket to pretend to be me, and then hid at the side. When that person rushed in to deal with the blanket, I launched a sneak attack from the side. Just like that, I stabbed him with my sword," Lin Long said.
"That can't be right. He's a level-3 beastman. How could he allow you to launch a sneak attack from the side?" someone couldn't help but ask.
The one who said that was not the two level-3 beastmen, but another disciple.
Of course, he wasn't the only one who thought so. Everyone else at the scene thought so too. Hence, at this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Long again.
"When that person came near my room, he made a sound. At first, I thought it was Night Cat, but when I looked up, I was immediately shocked because a figure had clearly appeared on my window. At that time, there happened to be light coming from that direction. Although the light was not strong, there was still a little shadow, so I could see it. "
"However, that person didn't know that, so he wasn't prepared at all. I immediately used the blanket to pretend to be a dummy, and then hid at the side. That person thought that he would be able to deal with me, but he didn't expect me to set such a trap. Hence, he fell for it. "
Lin Long said.
Although there were some loopholes in his words, the others didn't think too much about it. If it wasn't for what Lin Long said, there wouldn't be any other reason.
"Looks like that person was too careless. Otherwise, Junior Brother Lin would have been in trouble." Someone couldn't help but say.
"This is also because Junior Brother Lin is lucky. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable." Another person said.
"Yeah." The others also agreed.
"Master, since Junior Brother said that that person entered the Zhang family, then let's directly kill our way to the Zhang family and find that person!" Zheng Le said.
"Yes, find that person and let him know that we aren't that easy to bully!" The surrounding people also echoed.
"Alright, then let's go now!" Master Ling said in a deep voice.
He chose to believe in Lin Long.
He felt that it wasn't safe for them to go alone. Hence, Master Ling looked at Zheng Le and said, "Zheng Le, immediately report this matter to the City Lord and request for him to send people to assist us!"
"Yes!" Zheng Le replied and immediately headed to the City Lord's Mansion.
As for the others, they started to make preparations.
Very quickly, Steward Zhao brought over a hundred people. Among these hundred people, there were two third-grade beastmen. Previously, Lin Long and the others saved the Second Madam, and the City Lord was grateful. Hence, when he heard about this matter, he naturally sent people over.
Subsequently, Steward Zhao and the others, along with Master Ling's disciples, directly headed towards the Zhang family.
Not long after, they arrived outside the Zhang family's gate. Once they arrived, they immediately surrounded the Zhang family's courtyard.
Seeing this situation, the Zhang family members were naturally shocked. Very quickly, the Zhang family's head walked out of the gate with a gloomy face.
"Steward Zhao, Master Ling, what are you doing?" Looking at Steward Zhao and Master Ling, Zhang Feng said coldly.
"Zhang family head, just now, a third-grade beastman entered my courtyard to assassinate my disciple. After we chased him out, we discovered that he entered your Zhang family. Hence, we notified the City Lord and brought people over," Master Ling said indifferently.
"Master Ling, Steward Zhao, are you suspecting that the assassin is from our Zhang family?" Zhang Feng's expression was ugly.
He already knew that Zhang Lei had failed his mission. Now that he realized that the other party could actually come to his door, how could he still look good?
Didn't Zhang Lei say that he had shaken them off? How could these people still come to his door? Zhang Feng was very confused.
How could he know that Lin Long, one of the people in front of him, was a beastman with an extremely powerful divine sense?
"It's not suspicion. I saw that person enter your Zhang family, so I'm sure that he is from your Zhang family! Your Zhang family doesn't have many third-grade beastmen. If he is really from your Zhang family, it should be very easy to find him, "Master Ling said.
"Hence, I suggest that Zhang family head summon all the third-grade beastmen from your Zhang family. This way, we can know if that person is from your Zhang family," Steward Zhao said.
"I can do that, but what if the assassin is not from our Zhang family? How are you going to give our Zhang family an explanation?" Zhang Feng said coldly.
"That's right. You can't suspect our Zhang family for no reason!" The few people who followed Zhang Feng echoed.
"If we can't find him here, I'm willing to refine the elixir that you want in the future!" Master Ling said.
"Great!" Zhang Feng was delighted to hear what Master Ling said.
Seeing Zhang Feng's confident look, Master Ling's disciple could not help but worry.
Even Master Ling could not help but worry. However, he still chose to believe in Lin Long.
"Then, Zhang family head, summon the third-grade beastmen from your Zhang family!" Steward Zhao said again.
"Alright, Master Ling, Steward Zhao, please wait for a moment." Zhang Feng looked at the people behind him and said, "Get the three Level 3 beasts out here!"
Soon, the three third-grade beastmen from the Zhang family were summoned to the door.
Two of them were middle-aged men and the other was a white-haired elder.
"The third-grade beastmen from our Zhang family are here." Zhang Feng pointed at the three of them and continued, "I hope you can prove that one of them is the assassin!"
Master Ling looked at Lin Long and the two third-grade beastmen and asked, "Can you tell who it is?"
"I can't." The two third-grade beastmen shook their heads after taking a closer look at the three of them.
Thinking of something, Master Ling looked at Lin Long and asked, "Lin Li, you said that the person is injured. Where is the wound?"
"The right abdomen," Lin Long said as he pointed at the same spot on his body.
It was actually Lin Li who injured Zhang Lei! Hearing Lin Long's words, Zhang Feng could not help but be shocked.
When he heard Zhang Lei's words, he thought that the other party had already noticed something was wrong and arranged people inside. He did not expect that the person who injured Zhang Lei was actually Lin Long.
In that case, Zhang Lei must have been discovered when he was outside the room. Then, the other party beat him at his own game. He thought to himself.
"Since it's the right abdomen, can Patriarch Zhang ask them to remove their clothes?" Master Ling asked.
"Of course." Zhang Feng nodded and looked at the three of them. "The three of you, remove the clothes on the right side of your abdomen."
Zhang Feng still did not look worried.
This made Master Ling and the rest feel that something was wrong.
Then, the three of them removed the clothes on the right side of their abdomen. Once they did so, Master Ling and the rest's faces immediately turned ugly.
This was because there was no wound on the right side of their abdomen.
"How is it? I didn't lie to you, right?" Zhang Feng smiled.
"The Zhang Family might have other third-grade beastmen, right?" At this moment, a new disciple of Master Ling's side said.
"That's right. The Zhang Family only has three third-grade beastmen." Master Ling shook his head.
There were not many third-grade beastmen in the entire Twin Springs City, so he naturally knew how many there were in the Zhang Family.
"Master Ling, we can only trouble you to make elixirs for the Zhang Family in the future." Zhang Feng said proudly.
Originally, he was depressed that Zhang Lei failed. But now that things had developed to this stage, he was obviously much more comfortable that Master Ling could make elixirs for the Zhang Family in the future.
This was a great fortune amidst misfortune, he thought to himself.
"Patriarch Zhang, don't worry. I will definitely not go back on my word." Master Ling's face was ugly.
Just when everyone thought that things would end like this, Lin Long suddenly said, "It seems that the Zhang Family has another third-grade beastman."
Hearing Lin Long's words, Zhang Feng could not help but be shocked.
Their Zhang Family did have another third-grade beastman, and that was Zhang Lei.
He had been hiding the fact that Zhang Lei was a third-grade warrior. Apart from a few people in the Zhang Family, no one else knew about it. This was naturally for the sake of things in the future.
Who would have thought that Lin Long would suddenly say something like this.
Immediately, he stared at Lin Long and said, "Lin Li, what nonsense are you talking about? When did our Zhang Family have another third-grade beastman?"
