Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

As the sun sets, a blood-red glow dyes the sky red. Meng Chen, wearing a plain white dress, slowly walks along the quiet garden path, exuding an indescribable temperament in her light steps. She looks up at the sky, and her star-like eyes reveal a deep loneliness.

"Back then, I was also the empress of this world, ruling over all realms and driving the six reincarnations. But now..." Meng Chen sighed softly, with a trace of sadness in her eyes. She was immersed in the vortex of memories and unknowingly walked to a small bridge. The gurgling stream under the bridge passed through the winding and deep path, and the vicissitudes of the bridge piers reflected the afterglow of the setting sun, which had a sense of vicissitudes.

Meng Chen stopped and stared at the small bridge in front of her, as if she saw her past. Back then, she ascended the throne and came to China, roaming the world, and her reputation spread far and wide. But now she has returned to the mortal world and can no longer have the glory of the past. Both her parents died, her pet passed away, and her peerless martial arts were gradually lost in the torrent of time. A female emperor who was once invincible in the world has now fallen into such a situation.

"Time flies, and a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye. I once thought that I would never fall into the dust, but now I am lingering in the world. What is the reason for all this?" Meng Chen frowned, his heart full of confusion and helplessness.

Just as Mengchen was immersed in endless sadness, suddenly a light sound of footsteps came from behind, breaking the silence around him. Mengchen was slightly startled, turned around, and saw a young man in a blue robe walking towards him, with a solemn and majestic expression.

"I wonder why you are so sad here alone, Your Excellency?" There was a hint of concern in the young man's voice. He slowly walked to Meng Chen's side, staring at her with burning eyes.

Meng Chen was slightly stunned, and looked at the young man in front of him. He had a handsome face, delicate features, and a pair of eyes full of light, giving people a feeling of vicissitudes and wisdom. Meng Chen's heart moved slightly, and suddenly he felt that this young man seemed familiar.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Meng Chen said lightly, his eyes full of vigilance.

"I am Yun Yi, the head disciple of Yunmeng Villa. I am grateful to you for not abandoning me, Your Excellency, and I have come to visit you." The young man bowed respectfully, "I wonder why Your Excellency is here alone, feeling sad?"

"Yunmeng Villa?" Meng Chen frowned slightly. She did vaguely remember the name. But the young man in front of her gave her an unprecedented sense of familiarity.

"That's right." Yun Yi smiled slightly, "I have seen the Venerable once in the fairy world, but it has been many years. Now the Venerable has returned to the mortal world. I really can't imagine that the empress who once dominated the nine heavens would be in such a state of desolation now."

"I see." Meng Chen nodded, "It seems that you and I do have some connections. However, I am no longer the empress who was so powerful in the nine heavens, but a mortal. What is your purpose in coming all the way to visit me?"

"Purpose?" Yun Yi smiled slightly, "Of course, it is to serve the Venerable. Although the Venerable no longer has the prestige he once had, I still admire the Venerable's prestige. I wonder if the Venerable can tell me about his situation, perhaps I can serve the Venerable."

Meng Chen was slightly startled. She had never thought that this disciple from Yunmeng Villa would treat her so sincerely. In her opinion, as an ordinary person, she was already an insignificant existence. Who would be willing to serve her?

"You're welcome." Meng Chen shook her head. "I am no longer the empress of the past. I am just an ordinary person now. You don't need to be so respectful. As for my situation, it is not worth mentioning. It's just that life is hard and I can only barely survive."

"How can this be!" Yun Yi frowned upon hearing this. "Your Excellency was once the empress who was feared by the Ninth Heaven. How could she fall into such a state? This is clearly unfair!"

"The spirit in heaven has now become a mortal. This is a sad story." Meng Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I am powerless now and can only accept the status quo. You don't need to feel unfair about this. This is my own fate."

"How can this be possible!" Yun Yi frowned, his eyes revealing a determined look, "Since Your Excellency has been reborn here, there must be a special reason. In this case, I will do my best to serve Your Excellency and help You regain your former glory!"

Meng Chen was slightly stunned. She had never thought that this disciple of Yunmeng Villa would serve her so enthusiastically. She stared at the young man in front of her and saw a firm light flashing in his eyes, as if he was determined to help her regain her former glory.

"Is that so..." Meng Chen sighed softly, "It seems that you really intend to serve me. However, I am now an ordinary person, how can you help me regain my former glory?"

"Of course this is not difficult." Yun Yi smiled slightly, "Although I am only a disciple of Yunmeng Villa, I have also cultivated a good martial arts skill. Perhaps I can give you some guidance in cultivation and help you regain your former strength."

"Practice?" Meng Chen was slightly stunned. "You mean, you plan to help me regain my martial arts skills?"

"That's right." Yun Yi nodded, "Since the Venerable has been reborn here, there must be a special reason. I also want to find out the truth, and perhaps I can help the Venerable find his past cultivation and regain his former glory."

Meng Chen stared at the young man in front of her, and saw a firm light flashing in his eyes, as if he was determined to help her. She couldn't help but smile slightly, and felt a little warm in her heart.

"In that case, thank you for your kindness." Meng Chen nodded, "However, I am now a mortal, and it is still unknown whether I can regain my past cultivation. You don't have to force yourself."

"You're welcome." Yun Yi smiled slightly, "I naturally want to serve you from the bottom of my heart. Since you were reborn here, there must be a special reason. I will do my best to serve you and help you regain your former glory!"

Meng Chen looked at the young man in front of her, and a warm feeling rose in her heart. She had never thought that in this unfamiliar world, there would be someone who would serve her so sincerely.

"In that case, thank you for your kindness." Meng Chen smiled slightly, "But I don't want to cause you too much trouble. Why don't we start with the basics of cultivation and see if we can regain our past cultivation."

"Okay!" Yun Yi's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement, and he nodded eagerly, "I will definitely do my best to serve you, Your Excellency!"

Meng Chen nodded, and a sense of inexplicable expectation surged in her heart. Perhaps, this time she could finally regain her former glory and her former reputation.

At this moment, a huge explosion suddenly sounded from the horizon, deafening. Meng Chen and Yun Yi were startled and looked in the direction of the explosion.

"What's going on?" Meng Chen frowned and asked, "This breath... could it be a demonic force?"

"Not good!" Yun Yi's face darkened, "It looks like the demonic forces are attacking again. Your Excellency, let's go and take a look!"

After saying that, Yun Yi hurriedly ran towards the direction of the explosion. Meng Chen frowned and hurriedly followed.

Along the way, Meng Chen saw panicked people everywhere and the land was devastated. The explosions were getting closer and closer, and finally, she and Yun Yi arrived at a battlefield where a fierce battle was going on.

A group of black-robed demons were frantically attacking a city. The people outside the city were terrified and fled in all directions. On the top of the city wall, several warriors in white were struggling to resist the demons' attacks.

"Quick, let's go up and help!" Yun Yi shouted, and quickly took off on the cloud and flew towards the city wall.

Meng Chen couldn't help but chase after him. Although she had lost her past cultivation, as a former empress, she would not sit idly by.

"How dare these demons be so rampant? I will definitely kill them one by one!" A determined light flashed in Meng Chen's eyes. She clenched her fists and rushed into the battlefield with Yun Yi.
