Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

Chapter 407: Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven Part 407

The morning sun slowly rose over Yunyong City, shining on the blue tiles and white walls, giving the entire city a golden sheen. As the sky gradually brightened, the sound of horse hooves and the shouts of soldiers could be heard in the distance. It seemed that today was going to be another busy day.

In the palace, a woman in gorgeous brocade clothes was thinking alone. Her hair was like a waterfall, her face was flawless, and her eyebrows revealed an indescribable majesty. This was the legendary goddess, the Phoenix Emperor.

"I have been waiting for a long time. Something big is bound to happen today." Emperor Huang spoke lightly, his voice as sweet as a jade zither.

At this moment, the palace door was pushed open, and a man in a brocade robe walked in and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to your Majesty."

Emperor Huang nodded slightly and motioned him to stand up: "I know you have something to report. But before that, can you tell me if there have been any unusual movements in the court recently?"

The man replied respectfully: "Reporting to the Queen, the situation in the court and the country has changed suddenly recently, and there are many unstable factors. Some time ago, news came from the border that the enemy was ready to move, and the military situation was tense. In addition, a few people appeared in the imperial city to fan the flames and attempt to rebel. I have sent people to monitor closely and report the situation one by one."

Emperor Huang frowned slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his dark phoenix eyes: "I understand. Go on, is there anything else you want to report?"

The man continued, "Also, a few days ago, a strange story came from the border. It is said that a mysterious woman killed a large number of enemy troops with her extraordinary skills and successfully stopped the enemy's attack. This person's whereabouts are erratic and the news is unclear, but she is said to have combat power and cultivation far beyond ordinary people."

Hearing this, Emperor Huang raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes became particularly solemn: "In this case, this mysterious woman must be no simple matter. I order you to quickly send someone to investigate this matter and make sure to find out the details. If this person has bad intentions, you must stop her in advance."

"As you command, I'll send someone to investigate." The man retreated, and outside the hall there was another chaotic scene.

After the man left, Di Huang pondered for a long time. After a while, she slowly said: "It seems that this disturbance is more serious than I imagined. I don't know the true origin of this mysterious woman, and I don't know if she has any plans. However, since she has attracted my attention, I must get to the bottom of it."

After saying this, Emperor Huang stood up, narrowed his eyes, and his expression became a little cold: "No matter what, anyone who dares to harm my people or covet my kingdom will not be able to escape."

At the same time, in a valley far away, a beautiful woman in a moon-white dress was thinking alone. This was the mysterious woman who defeated the enemy in the legend.

"It seems that my actions have attracted the attention of Her Majesty the Queen. However, since it has come to this, I have no way out. I hope that my plan can go on smoothly." She whispered to herself, and a gleam of determination flashed in her dark phoenix eyes.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, and a guard in light armor ran over in a hurry, with a nervous look on his face: "Woman, it's bad! I just received news that an assassination occurred in the palace of Yunyong City, and the victim was the senior strategist employed by Her Majesty the Queen!"

"What?!" The woman frowned, a hint of uneasiness flashing across her eyes.

"It is said that this man was stabbed several times and died on the spot. Moreover, a strange hidden weapon was found on the body, which seemed to be made by a master." The guard said anxiously.

The woman hesitated for a moment and said calmly: "If that's the case, it means someone is impersonating me and doing something in secret. It seems that we have to be more cautious in the next thing."

"So what are you going to do?" asked the guard.

The woman smiled slightly, with a sly light in her eyes: "It's simple. I will go to Yunyong City in person to uncover the truth of this conspiracy."

Yunyong City, inside the imperial palace.

A group of civil and military officials were anxiously discussing the assassination that had just occurred.

"This incident is so unusual. Someone actually dared to assassinate my confidant in the imperial city. It seems that someone must be behind this!" said a bearded old man angrily.

"Your Excellency is right. There must be something fishy about this matter. However, we still have no idea who committed this assassination and what the purpose was." Another scholar said worriedly.

At this moment, the palace door was pushed open, and a beautiful woman slowly walked in. She had beautiful features, elegant manners, and an indescribable majesty. This was the Goddess Emperor Huang.

"Everyone, I have understood the whole story." Emperor Huang spoke slowly, his voice as sweet as a jade zither.

"Your Majesty!" Everyone hurriedly saluted.

"I know that the purpose of this assassination must be aimed at me. But who is behind it and what purpose they want to achieve requires further investigation." Emperor Huang said lightly.

"Your Majesty, we have sent people to inquire everywhere, but we still have no clue. I wonder if Your Majesty has any clues to tell us?" a military general asked respectfully.

Emperor Huang nodded slightly: "I have sent people to investigate this matter secretly, and there will be results soon. However, before that, I have an important decision to announce."

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what the Queen was going to say.

Emperor Huang said calmly: "In order to thoroughly investigate this case and prevent similar incidents from happening again, I have decided to temporarily put aside the government affairs and go to the border in person to inspect the military situation. During this period, I will investigate the truth of this case in depth as a mysterious person."

"What?!" Everyone exclaimed and looked at each other, unable to believe that Her Majesty the Queen would make such a decision.

A scholar hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, how can this be done? You are the pillar of the country, you cannot risk going to the border. If you encounter any accidents, it may endanger the overall situation of the country."

Emperor Huang smiled and said calmly: "I know my limits. Besides, this matter is of great importance, and I must personally find out the truth. However, while I am away from the capital, you will temporarily handle the affairs of state on my behalf."

Everyone looked at each other. Although they were worried, they didn't dare to say anything more.

Soon, Di Huang put on makeup and disguised herself as an ordinary woman. She quietly left the imperial city and embarked on a journey to the border.

Along the way, Di Huang was cautious and guarded against any unexpected events. She was always alert to the movements around her, fearing that she would be ambushed again.

Finally, after several days of trekking, Emperor Huang arrived at a remote town on the border.

The environment here is simple, sparsely populated, and filled with a murderous atmosphere. Emperor Huang looked around and frowned slightly.

At this moment, a young man holding a long sword and wearing light armor suddenly appeared in front of him. He had a sharp gaze, an imposing manner, and a murderous aura.

"My dear girl, this is not the place for you to come. Leave now, otherwise you will be seeking your own death." The young man said in a cold voice.

Emperor Huang smiled slightly, not moved at all: "I am not a passerby, but I came here specially to investigate the case. I wonder if you know what happened here recently?"

The young man was slightly startled, then snorted coldly: "Humph, so you are here to investigate a case. In that case, I might as well tell you that a lot of things have happened here recently."

Emperor Huang nodded, motioning for him to continue.

"As you can see, this place is quiet, but there have been repeated attacks by the enemy some time ago, and the destructive power is astonishing. We, the border guards, are almost exhausted from dealing with them." The young man said with a frown.

Emperor Huang smiled slightly: "It seems that there are indeed many problems here. However, where did these enemy troops come from and what is their purpose?"

The young man shook his head and sighed: "This is the question we have been trying to figure out. The enemy's actions are very secretive, and we have never been able to figure out their movements. What's even more incredible is that every time the enemy attacks, they will be blocked by a mysterious woman."

"Mysterious woman?" Emperor Huang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes, it is said that this woman has extraordinary fighting power and ruthless means, and has repeatedly repelled the enemy's attacks. However, her whereabouts are elusive and we have not been able to catch her whereabouts." said the young man.

Emperor Huang thought to himself: "It seems that this legendary mysterious woman is the one I have been looking for. However, who is she and why does she act this way? This requires further investigation."

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried horse hooves and weapons colliding in the distance.

The young man immediately became alert, holding a long sword in his hand, and shouted to Emperor Huang: "Little girl, hide quickly! It seems that the enemy is coming again."

Emperor Huang nodded slightly, then quickly hid in a nearby corner.

After a while, a group of well-equipped enemy soldiers rushed over, holding sharp blades and whistling.

The young man stepped forward, wielding his sword, and engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy. He was agile and precise, and the enemy soldiers fell under his sword one after another.

But at this moment, a beautiful woman in white suddenly rushed out, holding an exquisite long sword, and quickly killed several enemy soldiers.

Emperor Huang took a closer look and couldn't help but gasp: "This is the mysterious woman in the legend!"

Sure enough, the woman in white was the target they had been looking for. She was agile and powerful, and every move she made was lethal. Soon, all the enemy soldiers fell under her sword.

The young man was also greatly shocked when he saw this, and exclaimed: "It's actually you!"

The woman in white turned around and looked at the young man. A hint of teasing flashed across her dark phoenix eyes: "It seems that you also know me. However, since you know of my existence, it means that you are also part of this conspiracy."

As she spoke, she raised the long knife in her hand high and chopped at the young man.

The young man quickly raised his sword to block her attack, and started a fierce battle with her. The two swords flashed like dragons, their moves were swift, and they were evenly matched.

At this moment, Emperor Huang finally saw the face of the woman in white. She was beautiful, with clear eyes and eyebrows. She was indeed a peerless beauty. However, there was a cold murderous intent in her eyes, which formed a sharp contrast with her stunning appearance.

Emperor Huang thought to himself: "It seems that the origin of this mysterious woman must be complicated. Why did she attack the border guards here, and for what purpose? I must find out the truth as soon as possible."

At this moment, the woman in white suddenly flashed, turned around, and stabbed the young man in the heart with her long knife. The young man had no time to dodge and had to take the attack.

"Ah!" The young man screamed and fell to the ground with serious injuries.

The woman in white put away her long knife, looked coldly at the young man lying on the ground, and said calmly: "It seems that you are indeed part of this conspiracy. In this case, don't blame me for being rude."

As she spoke, she raised her long sword high again, ready to attack again.

At this moment, Emperor Huang, who had been hiding in the corner, finally couldn't help but stand up and greet the woman in white.

"Wait a minute!" she shouted.
