Chapter 376 Brother Killing
Taoist Master Cihang dodged back and forth in the Tianjue Formation, his body as fast as lightning, but he still could not find a way to break the formation.
She frowned and felt a little anxious, but still remained calm and composed.
"I still don't believe it. A small Heavenly Absolute Formation can trap me."
After saying this, she looked at every detail of the formation with sharp eyes, trying to find any flaws.
"Hmph, Cihang, I'm not underestimating you, but you can't break through this Tianjue Formation. You'd better surrender!" Qin Wan said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Master Cihang remained calm, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer.
That smile contained both contempt for Qin Wan and disdain for the Tian Jue Formation.
"Qin Wan, you are too confident. Although this Tianjue Formation has some mysteries, it may not be flawless. After I break the formation, I will definitely kill you with my sword." Taoist Cihang's voice was cold, but with unquestionable firmness.
However, the Tian Jue Formation seemed to have infinite changes. Whenever she was about to find a flaw, the formation would adjust itself and dissolve her attacks one by one.
Qin Wan saw it clearly in the formation and couldn't help but sneer.
"Cihang, just give up. This Tianjue Formation was carefully set up by me, and you can't find a way to break it at all." Qin Wan's voice sounded again, with a hint of teasing and provocation.
However, this time, Master Cihang did not respond to him. Instead, he concentrated on finding a way to break the formation.
"Hmph, you're stubborn." Qin Wan sneered again when he saw this.
……
"Second Prince, everything is ready. We are just waiting for your order. Lingluo Powder will be added to the food of the First Prince. If it gets a little bit of it, he will die immediately!"
The servant's voice was low and fierce, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
He bent his body, his eyes flashing with flattery and awe for his master.
Jifa stood in his tent, with his back to his attendants, staring at the sword hanging on the wooden rack.
His figure seemed exceptionally tall in the dim light, yet he also exuded an unmistakable coldness.
He turned around slowly, and his eyes flashed with not only coldness, but also years of pent-up jealousy and resentment.
When he heard the attendant's report, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, as if it was a sharp sword light, instantly breaking the peace in his heart.
"The action will take place at the You hour. Instruct those who are carrying out the mission to be careful." Ji Fa's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight.
He turned around and stared at the attendant with a dagger-like gaze, as if he wanted to see through his inner thoughts. "Humph, while the Prime Minister leads his troops out of the camp, I will send my brother to reincarnation."
"There must be no mistakes this time!"
The attendant's heart trembled when he heard this, but he didn't dare to show it at all.
He was well aware of the Second Prince's methods and schemes, and he understood even more clearly the role he played in this power struggle.
So the attendant responded respectfully, and then disappeared silently from the spot.
After the attendants left, Jifa was left alone in the empty tent, his thoughts like a wild horse running wildly in the wilderness of memories.
He thought that since his brother Bo Yikao came back from the dead in Chaoge, his status in his father Ji Chang's heart had plummeted.
Even after his father Ji Chang passed away, his elder brother Bo Yikao would be the heir.
"Is it just because he is the eldest son?" Ji Fa asked silently in his heart, with reluctance and helplessness in his voice.
He knew very well what being the eldest son meant in this era where blood ties and clan rules were important.
But he didn't understand why a brother who had no interest in governing the country and even seemed a little dull could easily take away everything he dreamed of just by relying on this identity.
With this result, he felt an unprecedented sense of frustration, as if all his efforts were just to highlight Bo Yikao's mediocrity.
"I won't accept this!" Jifa roared in his heart, his fists clenched tightly, veins bulging.
As time went on, Ji Fa could no longer suppress his inner impulse. He knew that as long as his brother Bo Yikao was alive, it would be difficult for him to succeed.
Therefore, in order to achieve his own ambitions, he had to put his brother Bo Yikao in a difficult position.
Because Jiang Ziya and the immortals of the Chan Sect had been staying in the camp before, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, there was no chance to take action.
Now is a good opportunity to take action.
……
Unitary time
In another tent, Bo Yikao was busy dealing with military affairs, and he had no idea that danger was approaching.
The servants were waiting outside the tent, and no one noticed the conspiracy in the air.
However, at this moment, a mysterious figure sneaked into Bo Yikao's tent.
He was holding a small porcelain bottle in his hand, which contained "Ling He San".
He looked around and made sure that there was no one around, then quickly poured the poison into the tea that Bo Yikao was about to drink.
After doing all this, he quickly evacuated the scene and disappeared into the night.
……
"Your Highness, please have some tea." A servant respectfully handed over a cup of steaming hot tea.
Bo Yikao took the tea, took a sip, and immediately felt the fragrance of the tea, refreshing his heart.
However, he didn't know that Ji Fa had poisoned the cup of tea.
"Yeah, good tea."
Bo Yikao praised the dish highly, but suddenly he felt dizzy. The teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and he fell limply to the ground.
"Your Highness! Your Highness!" The servant was horrified upon seeing this and hurried forward to check.
However, Bo Yikao was already dead at this time, his face was as pale as paper, and there was still some tea left at the corners of his mouth.
"Someone come! His Highness has fainted!" The servants shouted in horror, and the tent suddenly fell into chaos.
The soldiers guarding outside the tent rushed over when they heard the noise, and when they saw Bo Yikao lying on the ground, they all showed expressions of shock and grief.
They hurried forward to check, but found that Bo Yikao had no breath and his body was gradually becoming cold.
"This...what's going on?" a soldier asked in a trembling voice.
"His Highness drank this cup of tea, and then suddenly fell down." The servant pointed at the teacup on the ground, his voice filled with tears.
"Quick, go get the military doctor, maybe His Highness can still be saved!" a soldier suddenly shouted, his words filled with anxiety and anticipation.
"Yes, yes, let's go get the military doctor!" Everyone echoed as if they had just woken up from a dream.
"Also, notify the Second Prince, Doctor San..." another soldier added.
Soon, the military doctor hurried over. He looked at Bo Yikao lying on the ground with a frown on his face.
He squatted down, carefully examined Bo Yikao's condition, then shook his head helplessly.
"I can't do anything. His Highness has passed away... This tea is poisonous..."
The tent suddenly fell into deathly silence. Everyone looked at Bo Yikao lying on the bed in astonishment, unable to believe this fact.
Soon, Ji Fa, San Yisheng and others arrived.
When they saw Bo Yikao lying quietly on the ground, his face as pale as paper, they felt an indescribable grief in their hearts.
“How could this happen… Why would my brother suddenly…” Jifa choked up and was speechless.
"Who sent this tea?" San Yisheng asked suddenly, his voice cold and serious.
"Yes... I brought it here, but... I didn't know the tea was poisonous... Please check it carefully, Your Highness." The attendant said tremblingly. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly with his hands.
He knew very well that he had become the target of public criticism, but he really didn't know why the tea was poisonous.
"You stand up first." Ji Fa's voice was low, but it revealed a kind of majesty that could not be ignored. "I will investigate this matter thoroughly. You just need to answer my questions truthfully."
The attendant nodded repeatedly and narrated the whole story in detail.
