Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

In this mysterious forest of anticipation, the Emperor Phoenix narrowed her eyes, and an elusive attraction flashed across her delicate face. She slowly stood up, wearing a white dress that flowed like a dream. Looking around, the narrative mood was gradually getting better.

This is the secret place she came across by chance when she was trying to escape from the prison. It is surrounded by layers of branches and leaves, as if forming a natural maze. The sunlight shines through it, making it crystal clear and refreshing.

And in this secret place, she accidentally discovered an incredible contradiction in the story. She saw a white-haired old man having an intense conversation with a beautiful girl, and the conversation between the two was full of irreconcilable contradictions.

Emperor Huang frowned and thought to herself. Who exactly is this old man? Where did the girl come from? What happened between the two of them? She couldn't help but feel strongly involved in the situation and decided to hide here temporarily and wait and see.

"How dare you insult me, you unfilial descendant!" The old man roared, as loud as thunder. "Do you know how much your grandfather paid to protect our family?"

The girl's eyebrows were full of anger, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, full of disdain, "Humph, I don't care about any family secrets! That old man is just a coward. He can't even protect his own life. How can he be called the head of the family?"

"How dare you say that!" The old man was so angry that his face turned red, and his withered hands clenched into fists. "You ignorant girl, your grandfather sacrificed his life to protect our family, but you don't even know his achievements!"

The girl snorted coldly, "Humph, so what? Should I be grateful and look up to you old fools? I think you are a bunch of incompetent people who just sit back and wait for opportunities!"

The old man was furious when he heard this, "You...you ungrateful girl!"

At this moment, Emperor Huang slowly walked out of the bushes and elegantly interrupted the two people's argument, "You two, why don't you tell me, what is going on?"

The old man and the girl turned their heads and showed surprise at the same time. After a long while, the old man said, "My dear girl, this is a private matter of our family. Please don't ask about it."

The girl raised her eyebrows, "Oh? You are an outsider? Then I don't want to tell you even more."

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, "If that's the case, then I won't ask any more questions. However, I am quite interested in the secrets of your family. I wonder if you can let me find out?"

The old man's face changed, and he quickly shook his head and said, "No, no! This is our family's secret, and it must not be passed on to others."

The girl chuckled and said, "Humph, do you think you are qualified to pry into our family's secrets? Don't dream on."

Emperor Huang paused for a moment, then said calmly: "If that's the case, then I won't force you. But, do you two need any help? I happen to have some special herbs here that may be able to help you solve the problem at hand."

The old man's expression changed when he heard this, and he seemed a little shaken. But the next moment, he shook his head and said, "No need. This is our family's business, and we don't need outsiders to interfere."

The girl looked at Di Huang sarcastically, "Humph, do you think you can buy us off with your little trick? Dream on."

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, not angry at their attitude, "If that's the case, then I won't force you. However, if you change your mind, you can always come to me. I will always be here."

After saying this, she bowed gracefully to the two of them, turned around and walked into the bushes, disappearing.

The old man and the young girl looked at each other, not knowing what to do. After a long while, the old man sighed and murmured, "Who on earth is this girl? She is so considerate."

The girl snorted coldly, "Humph, who knows if she is just pretending? Anyway, I won't believe her."

The old man pondered for a moment and said slowly: "However, since she can meet us here, she must not be an ordinary person. Maybe she can really help us solve the problem at hand."

A hint of hesitation flashed across the girl's eyes, but she immediately shook her head and said, "No, I won't trust outsiders easily. This is our family's business, we can just solve it ourselves."

The old man was silent for a while, and finally nodded helplessly, "Well, since you insist on doing this, then I can't do anything. However, if you really can't solve it, you might as well consider her suggestion."

The girl snorted coldly, "Hmph, I don't think it's necessary."

At this moment, a slight noise came from the bushes, attracting the attention of the two. Emperor Huang walked out of the bushes again, with a glimmer of inquiry in his eyes.

"You two, is there anything I can help you with? I have observed you for a long time and found that you seem to be in a tricky situation. Let me try to give you some advice." Emperor Huang spoke gently.

The old man and the girl looked at each other. After a while, the old man sighed and said, "Since you are so sincere, I might as well tell you our problem."

So, he simply told Di Huang about the history of their family and the current difficulties they were facing. It turned out that their family had been guarding a treasure with a great origin for generations. This treasure not only had powerful power, but was also an important token of the family.

However, recently many foreign enemies have been eyeing this treasure and trying to seize it. In order to protect the family, they had to hide this treasure and set up many traps to prevent it from being discovered.

But not long ago, this treasure was stolen. The two were looking for its whereabouts when they unexpectedly met Emperor Huang.

Emperor Huang listened carefully and nodded, "I see, it seems that you are indeed facing a very difficult situation. However, since this treasure is so important, I believe there must be a way to get it back."

The old man nodded, "Yes, this treasure is not only related to the future of our family, but also to the fate of the entire martial arts world. If it is obtained by bad guys, the consequences will be disastrous."

The girl snorted coldly, "Since you know everything, then help us find a solution."

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, "Since you two are willing to trust me, then I will naturally not break my promise. However, I have one condition."

The old man and the girl looked at each other, and the old man said, "What conditions? As long as it is worthy of our family, we will naturally cooperate unconditionally."

A sly look flashed across Emperor Huang's eyes. "That is, can you let me join in the search for treasures?"

The old man and the girl were both stunned, and then the old man said, "Well, I don't know how to answer you. After all, this treasure is an important secret of our family, and we can't let outsiders interfere easily."

The girl sneered, "Humph, it's true. Do you think you can fool us with your little tricks? Dream on."

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, "I know this treasure is very important to you, so I won't force you. However, I can give you a suggestion. Why don't you let me keep this treasure for you temporarily, and come back to retrieve it after you find its whereabouts. This way, you can ensure the safety of the treasure and prevent outsiders from interfering."

The old man pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "This is a good idea. But how can you make us feel at ease to hand over the treasure to you for safekeeping?"

Emperor Huang smiled and said, "I can give you a promise. As long as this treasure is kept safe and sound by me, I will never reveal its whereabouts, nor will I participate in the search for it."

The old man and the girl exchanged a glance, and the girl snorted coldly, "You want us to believe your promise? Ha, that's ridiculous."

Emperor Huang chuckled, "I understand your concerns. However, I can give you a guarantee. You can send someone to check the safety of the treasure at any time. As long as there is nothing abnormal, I will guard it until you find its whereabouts."

The old man pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "If that's the case, then we have no other choice. However, you must remember your promise and not betray our trust."

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect this treasure. So, you can hand it over to me now."

The old man took a deep breath, took out an exquisite jade box from his arms, and handed it to Di Huang, "This is our family's treasure, please be sure to keep it well."

Emperor Huang took the jade box and gently stroked its surface, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect it well."

The girl snorted coldly, "Humph, you'd better not mess with us. Otherwise, I will make you pay the price."

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I will always keep my promise. Then, I will take my leave first. I wish you a smooth journey in finding the treasure."

After saying this, she turned around gracefully and disappeared into the bushes.

The old man and the girl looked at each other, not knowing what to do. After a long while, the old man sighed and said, "It seems we have no other choice. I just hope this girl can really keep her promise."

The girl snorted coldly, "Hmph, I don't really trust her. But now we can only place our hopes on her. Let's set off quickly, time waits for no one."

The old man nodded, "Okay, then let's act quickly. I hope we can find the whereabouts of the treasure as soon as possible."

After saying that, the two of them quickly left the woods and headed towards the distant target without looking back.

As for Emperor Huang, he was standing in the bushes at this time, his eyes slightly narrowed, with a faint smile on the corners of his lips.

"Oh, it seems that my guess is correct. This treasure is indeed a very special thing. However, since you are willing to give it to me for safekeeping, I will definitely take good care of it."

She gently opened the jade box, revealing a crystal clear jade pendant inside. The jade pendant exuded a faint light, as if it contained infinite power.

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, put the jade pendant back into the jade box and gently closed it.

"This time, I must personally explore the origin and secrets of this treasure. It seems that the journey ahead will become even more exciting."
