Outside Xiangyang City, Yuan Yao rode on a spirit horse, with Xiahou Lan beside him and 10,000 Yuan Shujun soldiers behind him.

Xun Yan still failed to let Yuan Yao stay in Xiangyang City in the end, not because Xun Yan felt that Huang Zhong was worthy of Yuan Yao's personal visit, on the contrary, in Xun Yan's heart, although Huang Zhong was strong, it was not enough for Yuan Yao to take such a risk, but what Yuan Yao decided was something that Xun Yan could change alone.

Xiahou Lan and Li Yan supported Yuan Yao, and the other was silent, not supporting but not opposing, Xun Yan was also helpless.

Of course, Xun Yan didn't want to confine Yuan Yao in Xiangyang City, but with Yuan Yao's character, how could he listen to Xun Yan's words so obediently, before Xun Yan joined Yuan Shu's forces, Yuan Yao didn't even fully obey Yuan Shu's words. And even if Xun Yan is grounded, with Yuan Yao's intelligence, there are always various ways to run out.

Instead of letting Xun Yan sneak out of Xiangyang City from behind, it is better to promise Yuan Yao now, but in order to ensure Yuan Yao's safety, Xun Yan also specially told Xiahou Lan that after Xiahou Lan and Pan Feng meet, they must ensure Yuan Yao's safety, and not let Yuan Yao have even the slightest damage.

Although Xia Houlan also agreed with Yuan Yao's risky behavior, after all, the greater the danger, the greater the benefit afterwards, but Xia Houlan also knew that Yuan Yao's safety must be ensured. If something happened to Yuan Yao, they would not be able to withstand Yuan Shu's anger.

After Yuan Yao said hello to Xun Yan and Li Yan, who stayed in Xiangyang City, he followed behind Xiahou Lan, and the 10,000-strong army marched in the direction of Yicheng County. By Yuan Yao's side, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Liao Hua, and Huo Du also followed closely, and Qi Ji and Qin Yi were guarding Yuan Yao on the left and right, not leaving half a step.

In the defense of Xiangyang City during these days, Yuan Yao came to the front-line battlefield in person, and Qi Ji and Qin Yi were also scarred in the battle in the past few days in order to protect Yuan Yao, but fortunately, they have almost recovered now, and it does not affect their actual combat effectiveness.

Under the gate of Xiangyang City, Xun Yan looked at Yuan Yao who was leaving, and couldn't help sighing: "Childe is too worry-free, although Huang Zhong has this value, but there is no need for Childe to go into danger like this." ”

Li Yan knew that Xun Yan was still opposed to Yuan Yao going to Yicheng County in person, because in Xun Yan's opinion, this matter was too dangerous, in case Huang Zhong had some bad intentions, would Yuan Yao still survive?

He had seen Huang Zhong's strength with his own eyes, and he was only one step away from being able to fight an opponent who was inseparable from Lu Bu, and he was only one step away from being able to advance his cultivation to a higher level. If Yuan Yao sent himself to Huang Zhong, it would be completely a weak little sheep to run in front of a vicious wolf by himself, and he could only pray that the wolf had eaten enough, which was too dangerous.

Li Yan shook his head slightly when he heard this, and said, "Xun Taishou, I'm afraid that Gongzi also has a reason to go, otherwise Gongzi would not have put himself in such a dangerous situation." ”

Hearing this, a light flashed in Xun Yan's eyes, looked at Li Yan, and asked, "Li Zhengfang, what do you mean by this?" Is there anything I don't know? ”

Li Yan said: "I don't know very well, but I vaguely heard a news when I was in Nanyang, that is, the lord and Lu Bu seem to have been at odds recently. ”

"Lu Bu!" Xun Yan's pupils shrank at this time, and he said angrily: "Does this slave with three surnames want to betray the lord?" ”

Li Yan looked at Xun Yan and said, "Xun Taishou, this is just my hearsay, so I can't take it seriously." ”

Xun Yan said: "There is no wind and no waves, Lu Bu betrayed Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo successively, and later escaped from Chang'an City alone. ”

Li Yan said: "I'm afraid that Gongzi has already seen what is wrong with Lu Bu, so he wants to subdue Huang Zhong." If Huang Zhong can be subdued, with the strength of Huang Zhong and Xu Chu, a Lu Bu will not be afraid. ”

"Maybe, but your news should have come out recently, and the time that Childe came to Xiangyang City is not short, could it be that Childe saw Lu Bu's wolf ambition back then?"

"I don't know!" Li Yan shook his head and said: "Childe has always been smart, although he is young, but his thoughts are not clear to us, maybe Childe has already seen it clearly, maybe Childe is just a whim this time." ”

"Alas!" Xun Yan sighed and said, "I hope the son can succeed this time, otherwise if the lord blames him, you and I will be to blame!" ”

Li Yan smiled: "Xun Taishou, I have a lot of confidence in my son. ”

"Oh!" Xun Yan looked at Li Yan with interest and said, "Zhengfang, why is this?" ”

Li Yan said: "I don't know, but I feel that Gongzi has a special personality charm that can attract many people." ”

Xun Yan shook his head slightly after listening to Li Yan's words, and then looked into the distance.

Xun Yan is different from Li Yan, Li Yan judges Yuan Yao by his own feelings, and Xun Yan's cultivation has a pair of spiritual eyes, so that Xun Yan can see some things that ordinary people can't see, at this time, there is a faint light in Xun Yan's eyes, it is Xun Yan who uses his spiritual eyes.

In Xun Yan's eyes at this moment, Yuan Yao in the distance is no longer in human form, but like a dragon, constantly accumulating momentum and strength on his body, full of vitality, just waiting to rise to the sky.

It was precisely because his spiritual eyes did not see a trace of death in Yuan Yao that Xun Yan would not stop Yuan Yao from following Xiahou Lan south to support Pan Feng. If Xun Yan insisted on stopping it, it would be impossible for Yuan Yao to leave Xiangyang City so smoothly.

Of course, Yuan Yao didn't know about the conversation between Xun Yan and Li Yan, he naturally had his considerations when he wanted to subdue Huang Zhong this time, and he also had a certain relationship with Lu Bu, but it wasn't all.

In short, this subduing Huang Zhong is very important for Yuan Yao's next strategy, if Huang Zhong can be taken under his command, it will be of great help to Yuan Yao's next plan.

Huang Zhong's strength, even if you count those strange people in today's world, you can be among the best, if you can have such a fierce general to help, it will be a great thing for Yuan Yao.

When Yuan Yao followed Xiahoulan all the way to Yicheng County, and kept thinking about how to subdue Huang Zhong on the way, Yicheng County had already arrived. Pan Feng had already received the news from Xiahoulan and went out of the city to greet him in advance, and welcomed Xiahoulan, Yuan Yao and others into Yicheng.

And at this time, a thunderbolt-like news reached the ears of Yuan Yao and others, causing an uproar.

Liu Biao, dead!
