Lu Fei waved his hand and said, "Duke Wei, there is no need to be so formal. If you need anything in the future, feel free to tell me. As long as it is within my power, I will definitely agree."
Wei Ning once again bowed and took his leave. Lu Fei placed the mask in his hands into his bosom and continued to write. Suddenly, the sound of Wei Ning's footsteps rang out again. Lu Fei frowned. These were indeed Wei Ning's footsteps. Why had he come back?
Lu Fei took down the treasured saber from the wall and placed it by the door. Wei Ning was very happy when he left, and his footsteps were light. It was impossible for him to return the same way.
That person's figure stopped outside the door and knocked. Lu Fei said, "Please come in."
The door was opened, and thousands of sword lights came at him. Lu Fei was already prepared. He brandished his saber and hacked into the endless sword lights. A loud "clang" rang out in the air. Lu Fei's blood and Qi surged as he took a few steps back. The endless sword lights in front of him dissipated, revealing a figure dressed like a servant. However, this person's face was covered with a black cloth, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Lu Fei spat and said, "Ye Ying, we are so familiar with each other. You don't need to cover yourself with that black cloth anymore."
Ye Ying snorted coldly and continued to attack Lu Fei. Lu Fei immediately felt that something was wrong. Normally, Ye Ying would quickly escape after his attack failed, because the loud sound of the sword clashing could be heard by everyone in the residence. As long as Ye Ying was held back, the experts in the residence would rush over and he would immediately be surrounded. Whether or not he could escape was still a problem.
Ye Ying was not the only one who came this time. Lu Fei deduced that the opponent's target should be Han. Ye Ying's goal was only to hold him back and let the others deal with Han. Furthermore, no one had come to rescue him yet. This meant that most of the people had already been lured to Han's side. The opponent wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
Thinking of this, Lu Fei laughed and said, "I'm afraid your plan is going to fail. Take another strike of my saber."
This strike of his was a move that put his life on the line. He flew into the air and slashed at Ye Ying. Ye Ying's endless sword lights also stabbed at Lu Fei. The two of them clashed once again. Lu Fei spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying toward the roof. he crashed through the roof and fled far away. Ye Ying was shocked. He hurriedly chased after him through the hole.
After Lu Feifei went up to the roof, he instantly heard the loud shouts coming from the southeast direction. He immediately rushed in that direction. At the same time, he saw Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and the others also rushing in that direction. The Nighthawk behind him suddenly let out a sharp and long whistle. The sounds of fighting in that direction immediately stopped. Several figures quickly leaped over the courtyard wall and fled far away. The Nighthawk behind them also disappeared without a trace.
Lu Fei immediately relaxed. He sat on the ground and took deep breaths. He felt nauseous and could not help but spit out another mouthful of blood. He did not use much zhenqi in his fight with Ye Ying just now. He had completely used his protective zhenqi to withstand the opponent's attack. That was how he was able to borrow enough strength to break through the roof and escape. Otherwise, he might have lost his life at the hands of this person today.
At this moment, Kong Ning leaped over the wall and quickly ran back to Lu Fei's side. "How are you?"
Lu Fei circulated his zhenqi to suppress his injuries. "Help me up. Take me to see Han."
Kong Ning picked up Lu Fei and rushed in the direction of Han. When the two of them arrived, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, and the others had already arrived. They all formed a circle around Han, who was lying on the ground covered in blood. It was unknown whether he was still alive. Lu Fei immediately went forward and pushed the crowd aside. "How are Zhiyu's injuries?"
Guan Yu reached out and pressed against Han's back. "He's still breathing. We have to stop the bleeding quickly."
Lu Fei saw that Han's throat had been stabbed. Fortunately, it did not pierce an artery, so there was not much blood flowing out. The most fatal thing was that there was a bloody hole in his chest that was still bleeding. He went forward and pressed a nearby acupoint. "It's useless. It has already pierced a major artery."
Lu Fei immediately used the "One Yang Finger" to seal the acupoint near Han Fei's heart. The blood immediately stopped flowing. Lu Fei said, "After a while, you have to unseal the acupoint and then seal it again." As he spoke, he reached out to check Han's breathing. He found that his breathing was very weak. He immediately bought a Nine-Turn Bear Snake Pill from the System and fed it to Han. He also applied the best Golden Sore Powder on the wound. After that, the bleeding had almost stopped. Lu Fei said, "Don't let him move around too much. Use a frame to carry him back to rest. Second Brother, check the entire Lu Mansion to see if there are still people hiding here."
They sent Han back to his room. After a while, Guan Yu came over and said, "All the hidden sentries on the east wall of the mansion have been killed."
Lu Fei's eyes gradually turned cold. "If there is no traitor in the mansion, how would the people of Secluded Night know the location of the hidden sentries? Investigate and find out who the traitor is."
Hearing that there was a traitor, Zhang Fei was immediately enraged. He said furiously, "Someone actually dares to betray Big Brother. I'll go investigate and find out who it is. I'll definitely beat him to death."
Everyone agreed. Lu Fei said, "I'll have to trouble Third Brother to keep watch here. If anything happens, immediately send someone to report. This time, the assassin disguised himself as a servant and carried out the assassination. You have to be careful to prevent the assassin from carrying out a second assassination."
Zhang Fei said, "Don't worry, Big Brother. I guarantee that no one will sneak in."
Lu Fei pondered for a moment before saying, "Everyone, disperse. Be careful for the next few days. Second Brother, send people to conduct a thorough search in the city. Just say that someone is trying to assassinate an official of the imperial court. Announce a bounty, and anyone who reports will be rewarded. We have to thoroughly investigate all of these treacherous assassins."
Guan Yu immediately accepted the order and left. Lu Fei returned to his room and began to treat his internal injuries. He only fully healed them when the sky was about to turn dark. It was already an anomaly that he could recover so quickly after taking a blow from "Nighthawk" for no reason.
Lu Fei racked his brains, trying to think of something to improve the defense system of the Lu mansion. Since the other party was able to bribe his men this time, there was no guarantee that they wouldn't be able to do so again in the future. Thus, the hidden sentries needed to be strengthened and a set of facilities to report in a timely manner. Just as he was thinking, Wei Ning knocked on the door. Lu Fei said, "Please come in."
Wei Ning walked in. Lu Fei said, "Have a seat, Grandpa Wei." Wei Ning sat opposite him and sighed. "Young Master, I've heard about Zhiyu. How are his injuries?"
Lu Fei said, "He's alright. It's not clear yet. If he can survive tonight, he should be fine."
