"Haha, Mu Rong Xiu, it seems that you think it's time to take a good rest." Yuan Hao also wanted to provoke Murong Xiu, but the other side didn't say anything. Instead, he coldly swept his gaze at the other two. A trace of a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Yuan Hao, you're pretty good. At the very least, our army doesn't have such a person like you. But I'm thinking, for a person like you to work together with a foolish person like Nangong Xiong, don't you feel wronged?" Mu Rong Xiu didn't look at Nangong Xiong and Li Zhen, but looked directly at Yuan Hao and sneered.

"Murong Xiu, you're trying to sow dissension. I'm afraid I already knew you knew this when you were a kid and I hit your butt." "Haha …" Before Yuan Hao could say anything, Nangong Xiong suddenly laughed loudly. It was obvious that Murong Xiu's plan of attacking was useless against the three of them. Li Zhen, who usually didn't like to talk, also spoke up at this moment.

"Eldest Nephew, I also think that you're wasting your time in Xilai. Why don't you come to my army, I'll seal you left and I'll accept the centurion on the right?" When Murong Xiu heard the mockery in their eyes, he didn't get angry. Right now, it was a waste of his mood and it was completely useless. Just as Murong Xiu was about to attack, a loud shout came from the Northern Yue Army.

"Retreat to the camp!" A loud shout pierced the sky and reached the center of the battlefield. Mu Rong Xiu knew that it was Lan Cang's voice, but when he heard it, the three of them relaxed. Their mission was finally completed, and Mu Rong Xiu spoke in a cold voice.

"It would seem that your General Zi Yuan has been saved. In that case, you all can relax. Do you dare to fight against me?" Mu Rong Xiu's voice became unspeakably sinister as he finished speaking. His eyes also shone with a bright light. When Nangong Xiong heard that Murong Xiu wasn't worried about the safety of the Violet Garden and instead wanted to fight against him, he was afraid that he knew that Murong Xiu wanted to kill him. Even if it meant that he would risk his life to injure him, he still wanted to kill them.

Yuan Hao and Li Zhen naturally noticed it as well. When they thought of this, they all looked at each other. Everyone understood what they were thinking about. After which, Yuan Hao took the lead and said.

"Murong Xiu, everyone knows what you're thinking, but I suggest you stop thinking about it. I love and cherish my own flesh and blood. I won't do anything to you, so naturally, someone will attack you." Yuan Hao didn't forget to mock Murong Xiu in the end. After hearing his words, Murong Xiu knew that the other party didn't have the mood to fight him anymore. He wasn't angry and spoke calmly instead.

"Yuan Hao, I, Murong Xiu, didn't lose this time. Go back and tell your Commander Lan Cang to obediently bring the Violet Garden over to me. Otherwise, the Violet Garden won't be able to live much longer, haha." After he finished speaking, Murong Xiu turned around and leaped onto his warhorse as he galloped back into his own military camp. Nangong Xiong and the other two men looked at each other and immediately knew that something had happened to Zi Yuan.

At this moment, Lan Cang was tightly pressing both of his hands against the back of Zi Yuan. A surge of inner energy, mixed with a stream of air, was groping all over Zi Yuan's body, but he did not find the source of the current, so he was unable to find out where the poison hidden in Zi Yuan's body.

Lan Cang originally wanted to use his own inner force to expel the poison from Zi Yuan's body, but Murong Xiu had clearly predicted this. The poison was exceptionally strong, so he didn't have any other methods. He could only watch as the poison spread throughout Zi Yuan's body.

"Zi Yuan, what poison did that Mu Rong Xiu do to you? There's no way I can force the poison out of you." Originally, he had thought that saving the Violet Garden would be the end of the matter. However, at this moment, he actually had no way to force the poison out of the Violet Garden's body. Thinking of this, Lan Cang felt helpless and anxious.

"General, I don't know either. However, when this poison enters the body, the inner force will quickly dissipate. Until now, I still haven't gotten used to it, but I don't have the strength to do so." He knew that Murong Xiu had the intention to kill him, even if he couldn't get it. Thinking about this, Zi Yuan wasn't afraid at all. He had already transmigrated here. If he were to die again, would he have to teleport again? But what about Helian? What if I have so many people here? In the heart of the Violet Garden, she also felt extremely uneasy, but the Violet Garden was not afraid of death. As for Lan Cang, when he saw the absent-minded expression on Zi Yuan's face, he was worried that she would let her imagination run wild.

"Zi Yuan, don't worry. No matter what, I will find the antidote. Trust me, okay?" At this moment, Lan Cang could only console Zi Yuan.

"General, Zi Yuan is already very satisfied with the care you've given her. There are some things that shouldn't be forced upon her. She should be what she is. General, don't worry. Zi Yuan will definitely have some ideas." At this moment, Zi Yuan weakly chuckled. It was also because of this smile that caused Lan Cang to feel anxious. Just when the two of them were silent, Nangong Xiong also returned. He immediately rushed into Lan Cang's tent. When he saw Zi Yuan lying weakly in Lan Cang's embrace, he immediately became worried.

"General Zi Yuan, are you alright? Is there something wrong with you?" The relationship between him and the Purple Garden could be said to be extremely good in normal times. At this moment, when he saw how the Purple Garden acted, Nangong immediately felt a heartache in his heart, and how could Yuan Hao and the rest not know that what Murong Xiu had said to them was actually true? When he thought about it, Yuan Hao shot a look at Lan Cang before speaking to the Purple Garden.

"General Zi Yuan, don't worry. No matter what, we will think of a way to cure you." Yuan Hao paused for a moment after speaking.

"Marshal, let's let General Zi Yuan rest first." Yuan Hao pulled at the anxious Nangong Xiong after he finished speaking. Nangong Xiong also understood what he meant and said to Zi Yuan with concern.

"Zi Yuan, you should rest well for the night. I'll come see you tomorrow."

General Nangong, why are you acting like a daughter? I'm fine, I'm fine. You guys can leave. Let me have a good rest." He did not want these people to worry for him excessively. Moreover, he also felt a little tired, so he was prepared to stay inside and have a good rest. When the others saw this, they did not say anything and slowly retreated. Lan Cang was also leading the way. He knew that Yuan Hao definitely had something to say to him.

"Speak, what is it?" After Lan Cang returned to his camp, he turned around and looked at Yuan Hao and the rest.

"Marshal, when the three of us were fighting against Murong Xiu, he told us that General Zi Yuan wouldn't be able to live much longer and told us to send him there." Yuan Hao also paused for a moment before he recounted the entire situation at that time. When Lan Cang heard this, he fell silent.

Murong Xiu, oh Murong Xiu, this move is truly beautiful. Just in case he made the preparations when he first entered the Western District from the Violet Garden, Murong Xiu had already made the decision. If the Violet Garden was truly taken away by Lan Cang, then he didn't have any way of capturing it back, so when he first entered the Western Army camp, he made the decision to have the Violet Garden consume poison first. Even if Zi Yuan ran away, he still had a way to make the Violet Garden look normal, and Murong Xiu knew that with her personality, she wouldn't so easily deliver the pill to him.

Otherwise, when he went to save the Violet Garden, there was actually someone waiting for him. Judging from this, Murong Xiu should have been prepared for this, but what Lan Cang didn't know was that Murong Xiu didn't expect Lan Cang to come and save him, so the preparation came from his own instincts. However, Murong Xiu wouldn't worry too much about it since he had the Violet Garden's poison in his hands, so when Lan Cang thought about it, he let out a helpless sigh.

"So, Mu Rong Xiu really is Mu Rong Xiu. He's pretty good at it."

"Marshal, we already know that Mu Rong Xiu is extremely difficult to deal with after our fight with him. What should we do next, General?" Yuan Hao also knew that Lan Cang was definitely extremely unhappy at this moment. However, since the matter had already occurred, he had to properly resolve it. Therefore, he spoke out.

"In your opinion, how should we proceed?" There was nothing Lan Cang could do. He thought that his subordinates would be able to come up with a good idea for him.

"General, we're going to start a war and fight to the death with Murong Xiu. Then, we'll lock him up and send people inside to find the antidote. What do you think?" Nangong Xiong suddenly said. Right now, he was thinking of a way to deal with Mu Rong Xiu. He couldn't wait to fly over and fight Murong Xiu to the death.

"Hmph, which one of you has the ability to truly trap him? Let me tell you, if it wasn't for the rest of you holding the enemy general back, do you think you'd have the chance to do so? Murong Xiu isn't an idiot, so he'll naturally come next time." Lan Cang was also speechless with anger at Nangong Xiong's thoughts. If Murong Xiu had fallen into his trap twice, then he really could be considered a top class marshal.
