Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

"Song of the Starry River"

When I first met Emperor Huang, I felt that she had an extraordinary temperament and walked as lightly as the wind, like a fairy descending to the earth. Her face was as delicate as jade, and her eyes were as deep and deep as stars. Her eyes swept over me, as if there was magic that made people unable to look away. She was wearing a white long dress, with fluttering sleeves, and she walked to the song, as if she was walking on clouds.

"Miss, would you be willing to dance with me?" An elegant young gentleman stepped forward and invited.

Emperor Huang smiled faintly, and his thin and pleasant voice was as beautiful as a silver bell: "Thank you for your kind invitation, sir. I will gladly honor you."

After saying that, Emperor Huang frowned slightly, reached out and put her hand on the other's arm, and followed him into the dance floor. The two danced gracefully to the elegant and melodious music, their movements were coordinated and tacit, like two towering trees swaying in the breeze. The whole audience was amazed and cast their eyes on the dancing fairy and the young man.

After the dance, Emperor Huang bowed slightly to the other party and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, sir. I will take my leave now."

"Girl, since you are dancing with me here, would you please do me the honor of having dinner with me?" the young man pleaded.

Di Huang paused for a moment, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally responded gently: "Unfortunately, I have something important to attend to, so I can't stay long. Thank you again for your hospitality, and I wish you a pleasant evening."

As soon as she finished speaking, Emperor Huang's figure flashed and disappeared in an instant, leaving only the young man looking at the direction she left with regret.

At this time, Di Huang was walking quickly out of the palace, with a worried look on her face. She was thinking about something in her mind, and her pace accelerated involuntarily.

Soon, she came to a secluded courtyard. She saw a figure pacing there in deep thought. When he saw Emperor Phoenix coming, his face suddenly showed joy.

"Huang'er, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time." The man stepped forward and held Di Huang's hand, his eyes full of concern.

"Father, I am sorry for being late." Di Huang replied meekly, then frowned slightly, "Father, is there anything important to discuss with you?"

"It's like this, Huang'er." Di Huang's father said solemnly, "Some unusual things have happened in the imperial city recently, and I'm worried that something unexpected will happen. You came here this time just to discuss countermeasures with you."

Emperor Huang nodded: "Then please let father tell us."

Di Huang's father spoke slowly: "According to secret reports from the court, many strange incidents have occurred in the palace in recent days. A maid has disappeared, a palace maid has been assassinated, and even several ministers have died inexplicably. These have caused panic in the court and the country, and no one knows who is behind this. And I am worried that this may be related to you."

Emperor Huang was slightly startled, then asked: "Father, what do you mean?"

"Huang'er, although I have long guessed your background, I have not been able to confirm it until today." Emperor Huang's father said solemnly, "You are the orphan of the previous emperor. Now is the critical moment when the dark forces covet the throne. I am afraid you have been targeted."

Emperor Huang frowned, his expression solemn: "Father, what is going on? I am just a commoner now, how can I be related to the throne?"

"Huang'er, I know you have always been cautious and don't want to cause trouble." Emperor Huang's father sighed, "But now the situation is turbulent, and some people in the court are eyeing you covetously. I believe you have also noticed the recent abnormal events? I am worried that these are all related to you."

Emperor Huang was silent for a long time, and finally nodded: "I know. I also found these strange things, but I don't understand the reason. Father, who is targeting me?"

"That's hard to say." Emperor Huang's father shook his head and sighed, "There are many powerful officials in the court, and who knows which ambitious person is behind it. But one thing is certain, they must know your background, so they are targeting you."

Emperor Huang's expression was stern: "If that's the case, I'm afraid I'm really in danger. Father, you just said you have a solution, can you tell me?"

"Yes, I had expected this to happen." Emperor Huang's father said solemnly, "So I made some preparations in advance. Huang'er, you must temporarily stay away from the imperial city and avoid those who are chasing you. I will meet you again after I find out the truth of the matter."

Emperor Huang frowned: "Father, although I don't want to get involved in the court disputes, but now the crisis is everywhere. How can I abandon you and escape alone? Besides, I also want to know what happened."

"Huang'er, you must not meddle in other people's business." Emperor Huang's father said seriously, "The most important thing now is to save your life. Since you are the orphan of the previous emperor, those people will not let you go. You must get away as soon as possible. I will find a way to find out what happened, and come to pick you up after everything is settled."

"But..." Di Huang wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by his father.

"Huang'er, don't be willful." Di Huang's father said sternly, "If you stay here, your life will be in danger. You must leave immediately, and I will find a way to contact you. This is the only thing I can do for you."

Emperor Huang felt a pain in his heart, but he finally nodded helplessly: "Since father insists on this, I have no choice but to obey. But please take care of yourself, father, and don't let anything happen to you."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Di Huang's father smiled slightly, "You must be careful and cautious, and don't act rashly. I will leave someone here to keep an eye on it, and will tell you immediately if there is any unusual movement. You should leave quickly, don't delay."

Emperor Huang sighed, and finally nodded obediently: "Okay, I'll leave right away. Take care, father."

"Take care." Di Huang's father said solemnly.

Di Huang turned around and was about to leave, but she accidentally caught a glimpse of a figure flashing by not far away, and she was startled. She instinctively became nervous and subconsciously looked at her father, only to see him watching her leave with a heavy face.

"Father, what happened just now..." Di Huang hesitated to speak.

"It's nothing, just go ahead." Di Huang's father said soothingly, "Be careful on your journey and take care."

Di Huang hesitated for a moment, but turned around and left. She felt a little uneasy in her heart, but she still obeyed her father's instructions.

After leaving the imperial city, Di Huang traveled all the way and did not dare to delay for a moment. She was worried that the dark forces in the court would hunt her down at any time, so she was always cautious and carefully hid her whereabouts and stayed away from people.

Finally, in a remote valley, Emperor Huang stopped. She was exhausted by this time, and the long journey had exhausted her.

"We're finally here." Emperor Huang took a breath and looked around. "It looks like this place should be safe."

At this moment, an old voice came from behind: "It seems that you are finally here."

Di Huang was startled and turned around quickly. She saw a white-haired old man sitting peacefully on a boulder, looking at her and smiling.

"You are..." Emperor Huang looked at the other person warily.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not your enemy." The old man said soothingly, "I am the guardian of this valley, my name is Baiyunjian. I knew you would come here a long time ago."

Emperor Huang was slightly startled, then asked: "How did you know?"

"Because I have been waiting for your arrival for a long time." Bai Yunjian said kindly, "I once knew your father, and he specifically asked me to take care of you."

"So that's how it is." Emperor Huang suddenly realized, "It seems that my father had planned this in advance, and that's why he let me take refuge here."

"Yes, your father is a very cautious man." Bai Yunjian nodded and said, "He was worried that you would be hunted down, so he asked me to wait for you here. Now you have finally arrived safely."

Emperor Huang breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great. I wonder if the old immortal has any instructions?"

"Haha, you don't have to be so reserved." Bai Yunjian said with a smile, "I am just taking care of you on behalf of your father this time, and I have no other intentions. Now that you have arrived safely, you should have a good rest. When you have recovered your strength, I will tell you what to do next."

"Okay, thank you, old immortal." Emperor Huang bowed slightly.

Later, under the guidance of Baiyunjian, Dihuang came to a small wooden house hidden in the mountains. The environment there was quiet and very suitable for her to rest.

Here, Di Huang was able to temporarily escape the threat of the pursuers and relax. She unloaded her burden, collapsed on the bed, and finally had a good sleep.

At this moment, she had completely forgotten her previous fatigue and worries, and was immersed in peace and tranquility.

In his dream, Emperor Huang seemed to be in a sea of ​​stars, walking on the Milky Way. The stars around him sparkled like stardust, dazzling and bright.

Before she knew it, a beautiful woman in a white dress appeared in front of her. She had skin as white as cream and a beautiful face, like a fairy from heaven.

"Who are you?" Di Huang asked curiously.

"I am the Moon Goddess." The woman said gently, "I have been waiting for you, Emperor Phoenix."

"Moon God?" Emperor Huang was slightly stunned, "Why do I meet you here?"

"You will understand soon." The Moon Goddess smiled, "You are involved in a great change that concerns the world, and I will be your guide in this storm."

"Great changes?" Emperor Huang frowned, "Are you referring to the things my father just mentioned?"

"That's right." Moon God nodded and said, "Your background is extraordinary, so naturally you will be involved in this unprecedented war. This is undoubtedly a huge test for you."

Emperor Huang pondered for a long time, and finally asked: "Then, how should I deal with it?"

"You don't have to rush." ​​The Moon God said gently, "First, you need to rest well and recover your strength. When the time is right, I will tell you how to move forward. I believe you will be able to survive this storm and become the master of this galaxy."

"Master?" Emperor Huang was slightly surprised. "You mean, what kind of danger will I face?"

"Dangers do exist, but they also contain endless opportunities." The Moon Goddess looked at Emperor Huang with a hint of encouragement in her eyes, "You have an extraordinary destiny. You will definitely rise up in adversity and achieve an extraordinary career. As long as you are tenacious, you will be able to conquer the world and become a true empress."

Emperor Huang was speechless for a moment, and then he spoke after a while: "I understand. I will do my best to live up to your expectations."

"Very good." The Moon Goddess nodded with satisfaction, "Then have a good rest. When you wake up, everything will be clear."

As the words fell, the Moon Goddess' figure gradually merged into the galaxy and disappeared. The Emperor Phoenix also fell into a deep sleep in this peaceful starry sky.

The next morning, Di Huang opened his eyes and found himself lying in that quiet little wooden house.

"It turns out it was all a dream." Emperor Huang murmured to himself, feeling a little dazed.

At this moment, Bai Yunjian appeared at the door: "It seems that you have slept enough. Is there anything wrong?"

"No, I'm fine." Emperor Huang shook his head. "Thank you very much."
