It is possible.
Several Mahayana Cultivators from the Zhao Family, currently residing in Jing Yue Country due to a certain alliance, are inherently of Xuanlong. Xiongchu, ready to stab them in the back, should have expected a counterattack.
Even if their sudden departure had caused turmoil on the borders of Jing Yue Country, it all came down to Xiongchu's initial fault.
The logic behind this would hold true regardless of which country it happened in. There is no room for criticism.
Lack of foresight, no sense of the bigger picture?
Nonsense, your house is almost being stolen.
