"It's probably a remaining assassin, catch him quickly!"
A burst of angry shouts from patrolling soldiers came from all around.
After Mu Bai heard this, he jumped up high and disappeared into the street in the blink of an eye.
…
"My Lord Count."
Helen opened the door of the mansion and was shocked when she saw Mu Bai covered in blood and carrying an injured woman on his body.
"Shh!" Mu Bai immediately made a shushing gesture towards Helen and quickly entered the mansion.
Helen closed the door tightly and followed Mu Bai to the hall.
The woman in black robe on Mu Bai's shoulder was still on the sofa, and he let out a long breath. He really escaped from death just now.
Helen carefully brought Mu Bai a cup of herbal tea and said, "Your Majesty, please drink some water."
"Thank you." Mu Bai smiled slightly, took the teacup handed over by Helen, and drank all the herbal tea in the cup in one breath, feeling a lot more relaxed.
Helen glanced at the unconscious woman in black robe lying on the sofa, then looked at Mu Bai covered in blood, and asked in shock: "Your Majesty, what is going on? Are you not injured?"
Mu Bai shook his head and said: "This person wanted to assassinate me, but fortunately my life was strong enough. I was not injured at all. The blood on my body was all from her body."
After hearing this, Helen breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why did this assassin want to assassinate you?"
Mu Bai said: "I don't know, because I accidentally offended someone. I can only wait for her to wake up and then cross-examine her carefully."
"Lord Earl, if she wants to assassinate you when she wakes up, wouldn't you be in great danger?" Helen said.
"Haha, you don't have to worry about this, I have my own way." Mubai laughed and took out an animal skin bag from his arms.
"What is this?" Helen asked curiously.
"Nine Meridians Divine Needle." Mu Bai said. He opened the skin bag and saw nine slender golden needles shining with a faint golden luster quietly inserted inside.
…
Early the next morning.
Mubai was immersed in the practice of natural laws when he was suddenly awakened by the movement coming from downstairs. He quickly jumped out of bed, opened the room and ran towards the hall on the first floor.
"What happened?"
Mu Bai came to the hall and saw Helen standing in front of the sofa with a frightened expression.
