Chapter 39: Shaking the Liao Kingdom
After Zhong Shidao and Peng Feng plundered the imperial palace of the Western Xia Kingdom.
Zhong Shidao continued to guard the west.
After all, the Liao Kingdom might still send people.
The Liao Kingdom and the Song Kingdom are not at war yet, and are still considered brotherly states, with Liao as the elder brother and Song as the younger brother.
Zhong Shidao estimated that he would have to negotiate with the Liao Kingdom.
Peng Feng, on the other hand, planned to return to the capital and beat up Cai Jing.
At the same moment.
The Emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom, Li Ganshun, had already used a secret technique, Burning Blood Thousand Miles, and had run several hundred miles. He was now exhausted, his body aching all over, and his meridians were about to rupture.
It could be said that his strength would not improve in the next ten years at least, and would even regress to some extent.
Li Ganshun could not care less. He arrived at a nearby town, bought a horse, and then headed directly to the Western Capital of the Liao Kingdom.
The Liao Kingdom had a five-capital system, namely the Upper Capital Linhuang Prefecture, the Central Capital Dading Prefecture, the Eastern Capital Liaoyang Prefecture, the Southern Capital Xijin Prefecture, and the Western Capital Datong Prefecture.
During this period, the Emperor of the Liao Kingdom, Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi, was in the Western Capital.
After entering the Western Capital.
Li Ganshun went to pay his respects to Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi.
Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi was in his forties, the prime of his life, about two and a half meters tall. Sitting there, his hands and feet were large, and his eyes were deep.
He looked like a middle-aged lion or tiger.
Even without speaking, he could awe the world.
This was the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, the number one power in East Asia!
He was also recognized as one of the top two experts in East Asia.
Beside Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi were also Yelü Mingzhu and Yelü Dashi.
Yelü Mingzhu was the daughter of Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi.
Yelü Dashi was Yelü’s nephew.
“Your Majesty, Emperor Daozong, you must make the decision for this small emperor!” Li Ganshun entered the main hall with a sorrowful expression.
Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was stunned: “Huh? So it’s the Emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom. That’s not right, you should be in Zhenwu City, besieging Zhong Shidao, how come you look so miserable?”
Li Ganshun said helplessly: “Originally, my generals, Yeli Tongtian, and I were besieging Zhong Shidao. That Zhong Shidao was soft-hearted, and for the sake of his more than 100,000 troops, he did not want to escape, which was extremely foolish. He was about to be killed by me.
As a result, at this time, someone from the Song Kingdom came to support him.”
Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi sneered: “The Song Kingdom only has four Land Immortals. Lin Lingsu and Tong Guan are both held back at the Song-Liao border. Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji of Song is a weakling. If it weren’t for the fact that the Song imperial family has the magical artifact Ten Thousand Crows Pot from the Investiture of the Gods era, I would have already destroyed the Song Kingdom.
Who else can support the western battlefield? Does Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji dare to go to the battlefield?”
Li Ganshun said depressingly: “Logically, that is indeed the case. The person who came to support the Song Kingdom was Peng Feng, who ten years ago single-handedly defeated the top ten on the Liao Kingdom’s Hidden Dragon List. At first, I thought, what is a mere Peng Feng?
So I sent the top two on our Western Xia Earth List, Yaohong and Canlu, to assassinate Peng Feng, but Yaohong and Canlu died at Peng Feng’s hands.
Then, Peng Feng arrived at Zhenwu City. He immediately engaged Yeli Tongtian in a one-on-one fight. Then, he actually killed Yeli Tongtian.”
“What!!!” Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi, who had been extremely calm at first, could not help but exclaim in shock.
Even Yelü Dashi and Yelü Mingzhu on the side could not help but exclaim in shock, completely stunned.
The court officials of the Liao Kingdom on both sides were also dumbfounded.
Yelü Dashi could not help but interject: “Do you know what you are saying? Peng Feng is the first on the Song Kingdom’s Earth List, which means he is still in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, at most a Half-Step Land Immortal Realm.
Your Yeli Tongtian of Western Xia, although he is only a Land Immortal First Level, he is still a Land Immortal.
A Land Immortal can directly crush a non-Land Immortal.
◈◈◈
How could Peng Feng possibly defeat Yeli Tongtian, a Land Immortal???”
Li Ganshun sighed helplessly: “Actually, this small emperor was also very surprised. It is clear that a non-Land Immortal cannot defeat a Land Immortal. Why, then, could Peng Feng defeat Yeli Tongtian?
However, during that battle, this small emperor was nearby and personally saw Peng Feng kill Yeli Tongtian. Afterwards, this small emperor had to use the secret technique Burning Blood Thousand Miles to escape.”
Li Ganshun was, after all, the ruler of a country.
A major figure in the Land Immortal Fifth Level!
He really had no need to fabricate this.
That is to say…
Peng Feng really killed Yeli Tongtian, a Land Immortal.
At the age of twenty-seven, he could kill a Land Immortal, this is simply outrageous!
How did he do it?
It can be said that such a record is unprecedented!
The entire Liao court fell into a moment of dead silence, everyone was shocked and dumbfounded.
After a long while…
Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi then said with emotion: “I said long ago that this Peng Feng must not be allowed to live.
It’s a pity that this person has always been careful and has been living in the capital. Otherwise, I would have sent the Ordo to assassinate him long ago.
I did not expect that this person could actually fight a Land Immortal First Level at the age of twenty-seven, how terrifying.”
The Ordo was the Liao Kingdom’s intelligence and assassination organization.
It was equivalent to the Song Kingdom’s Imperial City Bureau.
And the Western Xia’s First Rank Hall.
Yelü Dashi was also very shocked.
Ten years ago, he was in the Diamond Realm First Level.
Now, ten years later, he is already in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm First Level, and he was still proud of his strength.
But he never expected that Peng Feng could already fight a Land Immortal!
This gap has actually widened further.
Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi said: “Everyone, is there any way to kill Peng Feng? We cannot let this person continue to grow.”
The officials below were silent.
What a joke.
If it was before, when Peng Feng was in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, they could still assassinate him.
Now, he already has the combat power of a Land Immortal. There are only twelve Land Immortals in East Asia, how can they assassinate him now???
In the end.
Emperor Tianzuo Yelü Yanxi sent Vermilion Bird Shangren, along with Li Ganshun, to Western Xia to ensure that Western Xia would not be annexed by the Song Kingdom.
Of course!
This kind of sending out a Land Immortal meant that Western Xia had to pay a large amount of silver to the Liao Kingdom. This was also called tribute.
After Li Ganshun returned to Western Xia, he discovered that his imperial palace had been emptied by Zhong Shidao and Peng Feng. In particular, the most precious dragon blood of the Western Xia Kingdom had been taken away.
Li Ganshun was already weak after using the secret technique Burning Blood Thousand Miles. After receiving such a shock, he directly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper.
