Chapter 213: The True Number One Under Heaven
Not only was Xiang Yu himself stunned by this battle result.
The people watching the battle nearby.
Whether they were Xiang Yu’s subordinates.
Or the common people of Xiangcheng who were about to fall under the butcher’s knife.
They were all stunned by this battle result!
Xiang Yu was the number one under heaven certified by the Heavenly Dao Ranking List!
The number one under heaven, actually… was defeated in one move!
This was truly unimaginable.
If this was said out loud, no one would believe it.
Who exactly is this Dragon Riding Taoist?
How could he be so powerful!
This Dragon Riding Taoist is the true number one under heaven!
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Everyone was so shocked by this battle result that they were unable to speak or move.
Finally, Peng Feng moved.
He saw Peng Feng walking step by step towards Xiang Yu: “Xiang Yu, now we can have a calm discussion.”
Xiang Yu was defeated by Peng Feng in one move, and he also understood that if he continued to resist, he might be directly killed by Peng Feng. He said in a muffled voice, “What do you want to talk about?”
“Talk about what? Of course, about the matter of the city massacre. This is the first time you’ve wanted to massacre a city. Considering that you are a figure of some importance, I’ll spare you this time. If you ever want to massacre a city again in the future, I will definitely not let you off lightly, and I will surely take your head.”
Xiang Yu’s overbearing nature made him furious inside after hearing what Peng Feng said.
However, he also knew that his strength was inferior to Peng Feng’s, so he could only nod: “Alright, this great one will not massacre civilians again in the future. Is that satisfactory?”
“That’s fine. You must remember what you said today. In addition, those who have massacred civilians and seen blood today must die,” Peng Feng sneered.
Xiang Yu naturally wanted to protect his subordinates: “These people only did this under my orders, and it’s also their first time massacring a city. Can you spare them this time?”
Peng Feng shook his head: “No way. They must die so that people can remember this painful lesson.”
Xiang Yu’s hands clenched around the Hegemon’s Spear, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Peng Feng, his teeth almost grinding to pieces. He really wanted to fight Peng Feng to the death.
But the situation was stronger than him.
In the end, Xiang Yu could only nod and agree to this matter.
Finally, Peng Feng killed those who had taken action to massacre the common people.
Of course, because Peng Feng had arrived just as the Chu army was about to start the massacre, and had shouted “Stop!” in mid-air in time, only a few hundred Chu soldiers had actually killed civilians.
Peng Feng flicked his finger, and a burst of Qi Jin killed those few hundred people who had killed civilians. Then, he smiled faintly: “I’ll say it again here. No matter which warlord, which force, dares to kill civilians indiscriminately, dares to massacre a city, they will die! I, Peng Feng, keep my word. Anyone who dares to act recklessly, don’t blame me, Peng Feng, for being merciless.”
At this time, the people of Xiangcheng were already kneeling on the ground.
These people of Xiangcheng also knew that if Peng Feng had not appeared.
They would probably all have died under the Chu army’s butcher’s knife.
At that time, out of the tens of thousands of people in Xiangcheng, who knows how many would have survived.
Therefore, these people all knelt on the ground, thanking Peng Feng for his life-saving grace.
Especially those whose families had been killed, after seeing Peng Feng avenge them, were even more grateful and prostrated themselves before Peng Feng: “Thank you, Taoist Master Peng.”
“If it weren’t for Taoist Master Peng, I’m afraid we would never have been able to avenge this.”
“Taoist Master Peng is our savior, when we return, we will erect a longevity tablet for Taoist Master Peng.”
“If it weren’t for Taoist Master Peng, we would probably already be dead without a burial place.”
Peng Feng turned his head and looked at these people with tattered clothes, and sighed: “Alas, in times of prosperity, the common people suffer, and in times of decline, the common people suffer.”
After saying that, he rode the Tyrannosaurus Rex and flew away from this place.
The next place he was going to was to find Liu Bang. Liu Bang had also massacred cities in history, so he needed to threaten him in the same way to prevent Liu Bang from acting recklessly.
โโโ
At this time.
The forces of the world.
For example, the forces of King Han, Liu Bang.
At this time, King Han, Liu Bang, was also attacking another city of the Qin State.
Liu Bang’s appearance was refined and scholarly, with a hint of gentleness. He looked six or seven parts similar to the appearance of Liu Bei in the *Romance of the Three Kingdoms* television series.
Liu Bang was also surrounded by talented people, including the Immortal of Military Strategy Han Xin, the veteran Heaven List expert Zhang Liang, and the Heaven List expert Xiao He, as well as Cao Can, Fan Kuai, and others.
Liu Bang and his subordinates were discussing where to attack next, while looking at a very simple and error-filled map.
At this moment, someone rushed in: “King Han, King Han, important news has arrived.”
Liu Bang said unhurriedly: “What news?”
“News about Xiang Yu.” The person who came to report said breathlessly.
Hearing this, Liu Bang finally became a little more serious.
โโโ
Although the Qin State currently occupied the largest territory and seemed to be the legitimate power on the surface, everyone knew that the Qin State would not last long and was doomed to collapse.
Liu Bang also knew that no one else was worthy of being his opponent. Only Xiang Yu was too strong and was his only true opponent.
“Speak.”
“Yes. It is said that the Hegemon-King of Western Chu, Xiang Yu, finally conquered Xiangcheng, but was angered by the losses he suffered in Xiangcheng. Therefore, he wanted to massacre the entire city of Xiangcheng. At this time, a Taoist rode a dragon and came. This Taoist claimed to be Peng Feng and stopped Xiang Yu from massacring the city.
Xiang Yu naturally refused.
And so, Peng Feng and Xiang Yu fought. Then, Xiang Yu’s Hegemon Spear Technique was blocked by a finger of this Taoist who suddenly appeared, named Peng Feng. And Peng Feng’s attack was just one move, and he defeated Xiang Yu, who was ranked first on the Heaven List.”
“What!? That’s impossible. Xiang Yu is ranked first on the Heaven List, how could he be defeated in one move?” Liu Bang was the first to disbelieve it.
And the others present also did not believe it.
The Immortal of Military Strategy Han Xin said: “Xiang Yu is ranked first on the Heaven List, with a cultivation of the Heavenly Human Realm Fifth Level, how could he be defeated in one move?”
Zhang Liang.
Xiao He.
Fan Kuai and the others did not believe this news either.
Immediately, Liu Bang ordered people to investigate again, but the news that came back was all the same. At this point, Liu Bang and the others finally believed it.
“I never thought that there would be such a divine person in the world who could defeat Xiang Yu in one move. If this person wanted to contend for the world, what would we use to stop him?” Liu Bang said with some worry.
“Wait. Peng Feng, this name, I have definitely seen it before.” Zhang Liang frowned. He immediately took out a book he carried with him and flipped through it non-stop. Then, he exclaimed: “I have found a record in history about this Peng Feng.”
“What? What is the origin of this Peng Feng?” Someone immediately asked.
Zhang Liang said: “More than two hundred years ago, in the Spring and Autumn Period before the Warring States began, the number one on the Heaven List at that time was King Goujian of Yue, who had defeated King Fuchai of Wu. At that time, King Goujian of Yue’s Queen, Queen of Yue, was jealous of Xishi’s beauty, who had made great contributions to the destruction of Wu, so she wanted to drown Xishi in the Yangtze River.
And just at this time, a Taoist passed by and saved Xishi, and cut off one of the Queen of Yue’s arms, and also drew a scar on the Queen of Yue’s face, ruining her appearance.
And at that time, King Goujian of Yue, who was ranked first on the Heaven List, how could he tolerate his Queen being humiliated like this, so he immediately went to find this Taoist.
In the end, King Goujian of Yue was defeated by this Taoist in one move, and he also had his right arm cut off.
King Goujian of Yue asked this Taoist for his name, and this Taoist said his name was Peng Feng.”
“Wait, it’s been almost three hundred years since King Goujian of Yue. Even if it’s a Heavenly Human Realm’s lifespan, it’s only a mere one hundred and fifty years, how could he live for three hundred years?” Fan Kuai asked curiously.
“Logically speaking, a person cannot live to be three hundred years old. However, if it is really the same person, and this person can defeat Goujian, who was the number one under heaven almost three hundred years ago, in one move, and can also defeat the current number one under heaven in one move, then this person cannot be viewed as an ordinary person, he might be… a celestial being.” Zhang Liang said thoughtfully: “In the records, many years ago, there was a person who rode a dragon to the Qin Palace in Xianyang and had a secret talk with the King of Qin. It is also possible that this is the same person.”
“If it is this person, then this person has lived for three hundred years.” Liu Bang was somewhat envious: “Qin King Ying Zheng sought immortality for so long and still died, could it be that there really is someone who can achieve immortality?”
“However, Zhang Liang, what you found is also good news. If it is really Peng Feng from almost three hundred years ago, then this person has lived for so long, he probably has no interest in contending for the world.
That’s good. Our only opponent is Xiang Yu. After this defeat, Xiang Yu is probably going to suffer a great loss of vitality. Wonderful!”
Liu Bang had not yet become an emperor, so he was most interested in the throne. He was relatively less interested in immortality.
And at this moment, Peng Feng came to visit.
Liu Bang and the others were so frightened that they immediately went out to greet him.
And the purpose of Peng Feng’s visit was also very simple, to tell Liu Bang not to massacre cities.
Liu Bang had seen that even Xiang Yu had been defeated in one move, so he naturally agreed repeatedly, guaranteeing that he would never massacre cities and never slaughter civilians.
Of course, Liu Bang also wanted to win Peng Feng over to join him in contending for the world, but how could Peng Feng be interested in such a thing? He directly declined.
โโโ
And the news of Peng Feng defeating Xiang Yu in one move not only reached the ears of King Han, Liu Bang, but also reached the ears of other forces.
For example, at this time, there were also King Wei, Wei Bao, King Zhao, King Qi, Tian Du, and others. After hearing about this, they were all shocked, and one by one they sent people to try to find Peng Feng to join their side.
And Qin Third Emperor, Hu Yun, after hearing about this, went to find the Great Qin Secret Archives. In the Great Qin Secret Archives, there was a record of five questions and answers between Peng Feng and the King of Qin.
After discovering that Peng Feng was so powerful, he also wanted to find someone to look for Peng Feng, wanting to get Peng Feng to join him.
Of course, none of these people got their wish.
After finding Liu Bang, Peng Feng returned to Maoshan by the sea and continued his secluded cultivation.
What did the changing situation of the world have to do with him?
Thank you to the book friends for their rewards.
In addition, for the past ten days, I was immersed in a frenzy of reading and could not extricate myself. Now I will return to three updates per day.
