He just learned two days ago that Jing'en and the 500,000-strong Xiliang army were captured on the first day of entering Nanyue. Based on his understanding of Qian Yeming and Baili Xiao, the couple will definitely not let him have an easy time.

The three Baili brothers were extremely kind to their sister. After knowing that Xiliang had helped Qian Yeyao, they still began to station troops in Xiliang even in the face of the threat from Chi Nu.

Judging from the situation, he doesn't need to accept the invitation to go to Nanyue, because Xiliang and Northern Wei are about to go to war.

Xiliang's military strength was originally inferior to that of Northern Wei. Some time ago, he had lost a lot of troops in order to defeat the rebellious vassal kings as quickly as possible. If he faced Northern Wei at this moment, he would have no chance of winning, not to mention that once Northern Wei declared war on him, Nanyue would definitely come.

Therefore, in order to contain the Northern Wei Dynasty, Xuanyuan Yexiao is really important!

Because of this, he was willing to spend any amount of money to capture Xuanyuan Yexiao.

Although Xuanyuan Yexiao thought about the dangers he might face if he returned to Xiliang now, he never expected that Yelu Boyan would take such an extreme approach and pin the victory or defeat of the entire war on him.

If that were the case, even if he knew his mother was seriously ill, he would find another way to rescue her and would never allow himself to become a weapon to threaten Baili Feng.

Although the Northern Wei spies in the capital of Xiliang had received a pigeon message from Nanyue two days ago, they lurked around General Xuanyuan's mansion as quickly as possible. However, they could not recognize Xuanyuan Yexiao after he had changed his appearance, so they did not see him at all.

Although late at night was usually the best time for action, Xuanyuan Yexiao couldn't guarantee it at this moment. It was afternoon, and the ladies and young ladies had woken up from their naps, some had gone out, and some had returned from lunch. The servants of the Xuanyuan Mansion were coming and going, making it the most chaotic time.

It is better to act at the right time than to choose the right time. Taking advantage of the chaos, Xuanyuan Yexiao jumped over the wall silently.

Having just entered the Xuanyuan Mansion, while still in mid-air, he sensed a hidden murderous aura emanating from the large tree within the courtyard. The other party had clearly been hiding there for some time, feeling drowsy and lethargic in the afternoon. Before he could react to Xuanyuan Yexiao's sudden appearance, he had his neck snapped.

This big tree is very dense, and it is difficult for people hiding inside to be detected, so Xuanyuan Chun placed the killer here.

Looking at the corpse, Xuanyuan Yexiao let out a cold, mocking sneer. Although he had never held any hope for his grandfather, Xuanyuan Chun, because of his mother, he still considered this place his home. He even thought that if the Northern Wei or Nanyue cavalry broke through the borders of Xiliang one day, he would do his best to protect the Xuanyuan family.

But after seeing the killer, this idea disappeared instantly.

This family had never given him any warmth, but he could tolerate it because it was his mother's home. But now that the people in this family wanted to kill him, he couldn't blame himself for not considering himself a member of the Xuanyuan family.

After quickly taking off the killer's clothes and putting them on himself, and then tying the other party to a tree with his own clothes, Xuanyuan Yexiao sneaked towards the courtyard where the third wife's mother was at the fastest speed.

This courtyard is the smallest side courtyard of the Xuanyuan family. Ever since my father married my mother, Xuanyuan Chun was furious and drove their family to this remote courtyard where servants usually lived.
