My Hidden Strength Was Exposed by the Heavenly Dao Ranking List – Chapter 105

Chapter 105: Peng Lang, About to Laugh Himself Silly

This time, the Yuan Khanate’s large-scale southward advance also caused a stir among the martial arts world and the common people.

“The Yuan Khanate’s Tore and Chilaowen, two Heavenly Human Realm experts, are leading five Land Immortals and an army of 300,000. I wonder if our Song State can withstand them?” someone said worriedly.

“Of course, we can withstand them. Back when our Great Song had Marshal Yue Fei and Prince Jin Peng Lang, we could withstand the Yuan’s attacks.”

“It was only later, after Marshal Yue Fei passed away, that we couldn’t resist and were forced to move south.”

“Now, our Great Song has another Old Prince of Jin, and the Old Prince of Jin is at the Heavenly Human Realm. Our Great Song now has two Heavenly Human Realms; how can we not withstand the Yuan’s attacks?” someone said with full confidence.

“You’re getting ahead of yourself. It’s true that our Great Song now has two Heavenly Human Realms. Logically, we shouldn’t be afraid of the Yuan. But don’t forget the Old Prince of Jin’s age. The Old Prince of Jin is already one hundred and forty-eight years old.”

“Even for those above the Land Immortal Realm, one hundred and fifty years old is the limit of their lifespan. At one hundred and thirty or forty years old, their strength generally declines and is not as good as their peak.”

“Like Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, in his prime, what kind of strength did he have? He was called the number one in the East. But after he grew old and weak, he couldn’t defeat An Lushan.”

“The Old Prince of Jin’s current strength is definitely not as good as it was sixty-six years ago. It’s estimated that it would be very, very difficult for him to fight other Heavenly Human Realm experts.”

“Our Song State’s two Heavenly Human Realms are just for show,” someone said worriedly.

Hearing this, the person next to them was also taken aback: “It seems so. I heard that even at the Heavenly Human Realm, when they reach one hundred and thirty or forty years old, their strength will decline. The Old Prince of Jin’s strength is probably far from his peak, so what should we do?”

“The odds of our Song State winning this battle are indeed not high. If you don’t have money, just lie down and wait for death. If you have money, it’s better to go to sea. The world overseas is endless, and there are still many places that the Mongol Empire hasn’t attacked.”

“That makes sense.”

For a while, many people were not optimistic about Peng Feng.

There was no other way.

It is a law that has existed for thousands of years that a person’s strength will decline before their lifespan is exhausted, and no one has ever been an exception.

◈◈◈

While everyone was not optimistic,

Peng Feng had already arrived at Xiangyang City with the Song State’s reinforcements.

The two main generals in Xiangyang City, Yu Yunwen and Guo Jing, as well as the martial arts experts Huang Yaoshi and Zhu Ziliu in the city, all came to greet him.

Yu Yunwen cupped his fist towards Peng Feng: “Thank you, Old Prince of Jin, for the Azure Dragon Detoxification Holy Pill. If it weren’t for the Old Prince of Jin’s pill, I’m afraid Yu would have already died.”

Guo Jing said even more awkwardly: “Last time, I didn’t know the Old Prince of Jin’s true identity and made a joke. Please forgive me, Old Prince of Jin.”

Peng Feng shook his head: “A small misunderstanding, why bother? Could it be that in Great Hero Guo’s eyes, I, Peng, am such a petty person?”

Guo Jing quickly said: “Of course not, of course not.”

And since they had arrived at Xiangyang City,

the many Land Immortal big shots present held a war meeting.

Those attending the meeting were Peng Feng,

Peng Lang, first on the Heaven List,

Xin Qiji, second on the Heaven List,

Ling Donglai, third on the Heaven List,

Yu Yunwen, fifth on the Heaven List,

Meng Gong, sixth on the Heaven List,

Guo Jing, seventh on the Heaven List,

and Peng Yun, a newly promoted Land Immortal.

There were a total of eight people participating in the meeting.

◈◈◈

The first person to speak was Xin Qiji, second on the Heaven List, who said: “This time, the Yuan Khanate is attacking with all its might. We must not be careless. The Yuan Khanate currently has two Heavenly Human Realm experts and five Land Immortals. On our side, we also have two Heavenly Human Realm experts and six Land Immortals.”

“We have one more Land Immortal than the other side. Even if the quality is slightly inferior, we should be able to withstand their five Land Immortals.”

“But there is still one problem. The other side has two Heavenly Human Realm experts.” Xin Qiji cupped his fists and said to Peng Feng: “Please forgive me, Old Prince of Jin, it’s not that I, Xin, doubt you. It’s just that the Old Prince of Jin is indeed one hundred and forty-eight years old, close to the limit of one hundred and fifty years old.”

“Since ancient times, whether it is a Land Immortal, a Heavenly Human Realm expert, or even a Loose Immortal, when they approach the limit of their lifespan, their strength will decline. I’m afraid that the Old Prince of Jin’s current strength cannot match the Heavenly Human Realm experts Chilaowen or Tore.”

“So, what we are worried about now is how to deal with Chilaowen and Tore. At most, Prince Jin can hold one of them back. How do we deal with the other?”

Hearing this,

Peng Lang directly laughed out loud.

Xin Qiji, Ling Donglai, Meng Gong, and others all looked puzzled, completely unaware of what Peng Lang was laughing at.

Peng Lang laughed so hard that he was bent over: “Hahahaha, hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter.”

Xin Qiji, Ling Donglai, Meng Gong, and others were even more puzzled.

Xin Qiji said with a solemn expression: “I wonder what Prince Jin is laughing at?”

Peng Lang looked at Peng Feng and said: “Old man, there are only eight people here. Can you briefly explain your situation so they understand they’re worrying for nothing?”

Peng Feng nodded indifferently.

Peng Lang then said with a smile: “You guys are always worried that my old man can’t defeat a mere Heavenly Human Realm expert. That’s what I’m laughing at. We’re all our own people, brothers who are fighting together. I won’t hide it from you. I’ll tell you a secret.”

“However, this secret must never be spread.”

Xin Qiji, Ling Donglai, Meng Gong, Yu Yunwen, and Guo Jing all nodded and said that they would never reveal this secret.

These five people…

Among those who could write poems, Xin Qiji was not good at fighting, and among those who could fight, he was not good at writing poems.

Ling Donglai pursued the Heavenly Dao.

Meng Gong had an imposing aura like a tiger, and his personality was quite similar to Zhong Shidao of that time.

Yu Yunwen was also a famous general who was concerned about the country and its people.

Guo Jing was a great hero of his generation.

These five people each had their own personalities, but they were all gentlemen who kept their promises.

Once they agreed to keep a secret, they would never reveal it, even if it meant death.

Peng Lang then said: “This secret is that my old man, more than sixty years ago, went to chase a phoenix and succeeded. He obtained phoenix blood, and can live forever. So, there’s no such thing as his strength declining when his lifespan is about to end. My old man has no lifespan limit, and I’m so envious of that.”

“Let me tell you another secret. My old man, before he went to chase the phoenix more than sixty years ago, had already reached the Loose Immortal Realm. In this world, only Genghis Khan Temujin was at the same level as him, and could compete with him.”

“What is Tore? What is Chilaowen? Those who dare to challenge my old man are simply overestimating themselves.”

“I, this Heavenly Human Realm expert, have already prepared to lie down and win. I don’t even need to exert any effort, and the enemy will fall.”

“So, you guys are still afraid that my old man can’t handle a mere Heavenly Human Realm expert. It’s really very funny.”

After Peng Lang finished speaking,

the entire room was in shock!
