Chapter 218 A Sword Through the Heart

Ji Weiming was as fast as lightning and appeared before his eyes. Ji Wenyi blocked him with his life sword and took Ji Weiming's move.

The two swords clashed, and their long hair and robes flew backwards. They were like the eye of an earthquake, and the fluctuations of their spiritual energy resonated outward in circles, collapsing countless pavilions and towers around them.

The ground where the two stood sank deeply.

Ji Wenyi said gently: "Prince Rui, calm down."

Ji Weiming glared at him, "The hatred for having my wife stolen is irreconcilable! How can you expect me to remain calm?"

Ji Wenyi offered a solution: "If you like something, I can arrange additional compensation for you."

Ji Weiming gritted his teeth and said, "Give her to me!"

Ji Wenyi sneered: "You are dreaming."

The negotiations broke down.

The two figures separated in an instant.

The next moment, two figures appeared in the air.

You and I exchanged blows, and in an instant, a hundred moves were exchanged.

The lights in the Prince's Mansion illuminated the night as if it were day.

The swords of Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming were stained with blood in the light!

Upon hearing the noise, the servants, guards, and secret guards of the Prince's Mansion all rushed over, blocking the outside and forming a big circle.

Some people were standing on the ground, while others were jumping onto the roofs of tall buildings. They all looked up in surprise and watched the duel between Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming.

There were also experts who tried to separate the two, but no one dared to stop them.

One is the crown prince and the other is a prince.

In the divine realm, apart from the emperor, they are the two people with the most noble status.

We are brothers who are connected by bones.

They were not helping anyone, nor did they dare to attack the other person. They could only stand there and worry.

"Your Highness, Crown Prince, Your Highness, Prince Rui, please stop fighting!"

"Swords have no eyes. I beg you two for mercy."

"If you keep fighting, someone from the palace will come!"

More people were whispering to each other.

"What on earth happened?"

"Why are the two masters suddenly acting like enemies?"

The onlookers discussed and discussed, and their attention gradually focused on the only woman at the scene.

Ye Xiaoman was seen clenching her fists, wearing the clothes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, hiding far away behind the rockery, with her head lowered, her body trembling slightly with fear, and she said nothing.

The crowd was like a hornet's nest that had been poked, and the discussion suddenly became lively.

"A woman and two men. Sorry, my well-read brain has already automatically imagined it."

"Me too."

"So, the trigger for tonight's events—the masters' rage for their beloved?"

"You don't have to put it so nicely. They just fought over a woman."

Some people also recalled the incident when Ji Weiming caused a big disturbance in Prince Teng's Mansion.

I still remember that day, Prince Teng cursed loudly: "Prince Rui, you beast, you and your brother share a woman."

The explosive effect of that kind of gossip is simply deafening.

The scene was so shocking that it left a deep impression on my mind, and the scene is as vivid as yesterday.

"Wait, what Prince Teng said is actually true?"

"What's the matter? Tell me more, brother!"

"This is a life-or-death matter. Just give me an ear, and I'm only telling you..."

"Balaabala..."

"My dear Master Qingtang!"

"Shh!"

“Is this true?!”

"Wow, this is the highlight of our secret guard career. Who would have thought that just by working, we could get such exciting news."

"No! We share the good times and the bad times. This secret could cost you your life if you tell it. I'm going to send a message over a thousand miles to tell the other brothers who are out on missions!"

The people said whatever they wanted, but no one stood up to condemn Ye Xiaoman.

Her face looks so honest, her expression so sad, her image so broken, she must be innocent!

What's wrong with being an honest person? The only misfortune of an honest person is that he is favored by the powerful.

She must be more reluctant to see this scene happen tonight than anyone else present.

Oh, how miserable!

The fight between Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming became more and more intense, and they became more and more bloodthirsty.

Despite this, no one went to the palace to report the news for the time being.

The quarrel between the brothers over a woman caused a huge uproar in the city.

When the emperor heard this, he was furious.

When the news spread outside the divine realm, it became a royal scandal and a laughing stock throughout the world.

Try to keep it secret unless it is absolutely necessary.

Everyone was of one mind, working together to support the restriction and conceal the huge movement within the magic circle.

Ye Xiaoman raised her head and watched from a distance as Ji Wenyi and Ji Weiming fought each other in the air.

The competition among masters affected a wide area, so she stayed away from him to protect her life.

Everything happened as she planned.

She succeeded in tricking Ji Wenyi.

And tonight is just the beginning of her revenge.

Like dominoes, the starting point of the collapse is a snowflake falling from the snow mountain, and then the affected area becomes larger and larger, eventually causing an avalanche.

Ye Xiaoman was planning and thinking intently when she suddenly heard the guards who were watching the battle scream in surprise.

She looked ahead.

Ji Weiming activated the Soul Burning Technique, releasing all his cultivation, and his whole body turned into a sword beam, rushing towards Ji Wenyi as fast as a meteor.

The Soul Burning Technique is a killing move that cultivators in the Divine Realm will use when they are fighting for their lives. It burns their own lifespan as a driving force, causing great self-damage.

In contrast, the power of a life-and-death attack is also extremely great, and it is almost unstoppable in a duel between opponents of the same level.

The fighting had reached the point where the brothers were killing each other, and the old man in the mansion had to take action.

But it was still too late.

Ji Wenyi had always been an older brother, and still had some protective feelings for his younger brother. He did not use a fatal move, but chose to take the blow.

"King Rui, stop!"

The old man in the mansion intervened and neutralized most of Ji Weiming's attack power, but Ji Weiming's killing move had already been launched and it was unstoppable.

The sound of a long sword sinking into flesh and blood.

Ye Xiaoman opened her eyes wide along with everyone else.

A dazzling sword light flashed across his pupils.

"Your Highness!"

Ji Wenyi was pierced through the body by Ji Weiming's sword. The tip of the sword entered from the chest and appeared from the back. The blood-red blade nailed Ji Wenyi to the collapsed palace wall.

The entire space was silent for a moment.

No one could have guessed it would end so badly.

Ji Weiming's long hair was disheveled, his Taoist robe was torn into countless holes, and he held the hilt of the sword with both hands, breathing heavily.

Ji Wenyi lowered his head, frowned, and looked at the sword blade that pierced his chest.

If the sword tip had deviated even slightly, it would have pierced his heart.

Even so, Ji Wenyi remained calm, and even after being injured, his expression did not change much.

It seemed as if today's life-and-death struggle between brothers was already part of his plan.

He could have dodged, but he chose to take Ji Weiming's sword to atone for his mistake of snatching Ye Xiaoman from Ji Weiming.

Ji Weiming rebelled against his superiors and plotted to murder the crown prince. No matter what the reason, according to the law, he must be put to death.

He spared Ji Weiming's life, and the debt of love was cleared. Ji Weiming could no longer be entangled in this matter in the future.

Ji Wenyi said calmly, "Come here, send Prince Rui back to the palace."
