"Master Zhang!" Steward Zhao shouted when he saw the madness in Zhang Feng's eyes.
Such a loud shout actually woke Zhang Feng up in an instant.
If he really attacked Master Ling and the rest, even if he could take them down, he would be attacked by the castellan and the other families in the city. By then, even if he could take down Master Ling and the rest, they would not be able to escape from Twin Springs City.
So, if he really did that, it would be a disaster for the Zhang Family!
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng broke out in a cold sweat. The killing intent that was burning in his eyes was instantly extinguished.
Then, he looked at Zhang Lei and shouted, "Zhang Lei, how dare you try to assassinate Master Ling's disciple!"
At this time, he could only sacrifice the rook to save the king!
Although Zhang Feng asked him to do this, Zhang Lei still knelt down and said with fear and trepidation, "Master, I was wrong, I should not have done this!"
Zhang Lei did this because he knew that this was the only way to protect the Zhang Family.
"Zhang Lei, why did you do this?" Zhang Feng shouted again.
"I suspected that Young Master's disappearance had something to do with Lin Li, so I wanted to go to Master Ling's courtyard to catch him and interrogate him about Young Master's whereabouts. Actually, I didn't intend to assassinate him," Zhang Lei said hurriedly.
"I see, so you did this for our Zhang Family. However, you should not have done this, so I can only hand you over to the castellan's mansion," Zhang Feng said helplessly.
Then, he looked at Steward Zhao and said, "Steward Zhao, I will hand Zhang Lei over to you."
"Wait," Zheng Le suddenly said.
"Yes, what else do you want?" Zhang Feng looked at Zheng Le.
"There is one more thing we have not figured out. Is Zhang Lei a level three beastman?" Zheng Le said.
"I am not a level three beastman, they just mistook me as one," Zhang Lei shook his head.
To him, it was best not to expose his strength, so he naturally would not admit it.
"Misunderstanding? Impossible," the two level three beastmen behind Master Ling said.
"It really is like that," Zhang Lei insisted.
"Since that is the case, let's bring Zhang Lei back to the castellan's mansion first," Steward Zhao said.
"That's it," Master Ling said.
They had no other way, so they could only do this.
After that, Steward Zhao ordered the people from the City Lord's Mansion to escort Zhang Lei back to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Junior Lin, it's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find the culprit!" Zheng Le couldn't help but say as soon as they left the Zhang Clan.
"That's right, Lin Li. If it wasn't for you, my reputation as Master Ling would have been ruined," Master Ling said with a smile.
He wasn't joking, it was the truth.
This matter came to an end just like that. In the following time, Linlong naturally planned to seriously study alchemy with Zheng Le.
On the other side, Zhang Lei, who had been escorted to the City Lord's Mansion, was sent to the dungeon.
Who was brought in? This thought flashed through Wei Wenhan and Han Feicheng's minds when they saw someone being escorted in.
Wei Wenhan then said to the people who brought Zhang Lei in, "Bring that person over for me to have a look."
Although Wei Wenhan was locked up in the dungeon, he was still the City Lord's son. How could the person who brought Zhang Lei in not dare to disobey him? "Yes!"
Then, he brought Zhang Lei in front of Wei Wenhan.
"Greetings, Young Master Wei," Zhang Lei said respectfully when he saw Wei Wenhan.
Han Feicheng exclaimed, "You're from the Zhang Family!"
He had seen Zhang Lei by Zhang Feng's side before, so he naturally had an impression of him.
"That's right, I'm from the Zhang Family." Zhang Lei nodded.
"But, why are you locked up in the dungeon?" Wei Wenhan couldn't help but be shocked when he thought of what they had asked Zhang Feng to do.
"It's a long story." Zhang Lei sighed, then looked at the people who brought him in.
Wei Wenhan could naturally tell that something was up. He immediately said to the people who brought Zhang Lei in, "Just lock him in the room beside me."
"Yes, Young Master!" The few of them immediately replied.
The room beside Wei Wenhan's was empty, so they didn't have to do anything else. Zhang Lei was directly locked in.
"You guys can leave now," Wei Wenhan said.
The few of them hurriedly left. After they left, Zhang Lei said, "Young Master Wei, I was sent by the patriarch to deal with Lin Li, but I failed!"
"Didn't the patriarch ask the patriarch to send someone stronger? Why did he send you?" Wei Wenhan couldn't help but frown.
With his strength, he naturally couldn't see Zhang Lei's true strength.
"Actually, I'm a level-3 beastmaster." Saying so, Zhang Lei directly released his aura as a level-3 beastmaster.
Feeling the powerful aura from Zhang Lei, Wei Wenhan's expression changed. "Indeed, you're a level-3 beastmaster!"
Then, he frowned again, "But, how did you fail?"
"I don't know how Lin Li found out about me. He used the blanket to pretend that there was someone moving inside, but he hid at the side. When I rushed in to deal with the blanket, he sneaked an attack from the side, and even stabbed me … It's my fault for being careless. I thought that I would be able to deal with such a weak person. I didn't expect such a mistake to occur." Zhang Lei shook his head.
"That fella actually found out about a level-3 beastmaster's sneak attack? How did he do that?" Wei Wenhan couldn't help but be surprised.
"Yeah, how did he do that?" Han Feicheng on the other side was also extremely surprised.
He had interacted with Lin Long many times, and thought that he understood Lin Long very well. He didn't expect Lin Long to not only find out about a level-3 beastmaster's sneak attack, but also injure him.
"I don't know about that." Zhang Lei shook his head again.
At this moment, Han Feicheng couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Wei, the Zhang Family has failed. What should we do now?"
"Don't worry, I still have my second uncle. As long as he comes back, he will definitely be able to deal with Lin Li!" Wei Wenhan said coldly.
His second uncle was not only a relative of the castellan, but also had his own forces in the city. Two families even supported him, so he was so sure that his second uncle would be able to deal with Lin Long.
"When second uncle comes back, not only will he deal with Lin Long, I will also ask him to think of a way to get us out of here. Don't worry, you are my people. I won't let you suffer any losses!" Wei Wenhan said.
Hearing Wei Wenhan's words, Han Feicheng and Zhang Lei's eyes immediately lit up, and they said in unison, "Thank you, Young Master Wei!"
After all, Wei Wenhan's identity was different, and he had a second uncle with power and authority. Naturally, they believed that he could do it.
