Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

A ray of sunlight poured into the room through the window, falling on the sleeping Feng Jiu's delicate face. Feng Jiu's eyelashes moved slightly, and she gradually opened her eyes. Her clear eyes looked out the window, full of expectation. Today was the seventieth day after her rebirth, and it was also the first time she had her big day.

In the previous 69 days, Fengjiu had been trying hard to adapt to this strange world. Reborn in another world, she lost everything she had, even her own identity became a mystery. But in this long process of adaptation, she finally got a clue last night. She recalled the scene in her dream: she was wearing a white dress, standing on a high peak, overlooking the vast mountains and rivers at her feet, surrounded by layers of mountains, vast and magnificent, like a fairyland. Behind her, a towering phoenix rose slowly, spread its wings and flew into the distance, leaving a string of dazzling flames. This dream made Fengjiu feel a strong attraction, making her curious and expectant about her identity and past.

Feng Jiu, immersed in her memories, suddenly heard footsteps outside the door. She quickly sat up from the bed, and saw a maid cautiously push the door open and bow respectfully: "Greetings, Emperor, today is the big day after your rebirth, please get ready and follow me to the sacrificial hall."

"Sacrificial Hall?" Feng Jiu frowned in confusion. This unfamiliar name and place made her a little confused for a moment. But seeing the maid's respectful face, she didn't ask too much, so she nodded and followed the maid out.

After walking through a long corridor, Fengjiu finally arrived in front of a grand and magnificent building. The palace was all white, exuding a sacred and solemn atmosphere. It was surrounded by layers of mountains, like a fairyland. The door of the palace was closed, and dozens of maids in plain clothes were waiting in front of the palace. When they saw Fengjiu coming, the maids came forward and saluted.

The leading maid said respectfully: "Emperor, the sacrificial hall is ready. Please follow me inside to offer sacrifice."

Feng Jiu nodded slightly, and then, under the guidance of the maid, she pushed open the door of the palace and walked in. The furnishings in the palace were extremely simple. Apart from a golden altar in the center, the surroundings were empty, with only a circle of wide circular steps surrounding it.

The maids lined up in two rows at the palace gate, standing respectfully on both sides. The leading maid stepped forward and said respectfully: "Emperor, please step forward and pay your respects."

Fengjiu looked around. Although she was confused for a moment, she still walked to the altar as she was told, knelt on her knees, and reverently performed three great salutes.

At this moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly rose from the altar, shining on Fengjiu's body, causing her to open her eyes wide. The golden light became brighter and brighter, as if it was going to swallow her up.

Fengjiu was panicking and subconsciously wanted to retreat, but her legs seemed to be fixed, not moving at all. She looked at the maids anxiously, but saw that they were all kneeling on the ground, bowing their heads devoutly.

"What's going on?" Fengjiu was confused, but before she could cry for help, she felt a powerful force sweeping over her, causing her to lose consciousness and fall into darkness.

A shrill bird song sounded beside her ears, and Fengjiu slowly opened her heavy eyes. In front of her was a green forest, with sunlight shining through the branches and leaves onto the ground, creating mottled shadows. She looked around blankly and found herself in an unfamiliar valley, not knowing where she was.

"Where is this? How did I get here?" Fengjiu frowned, her heart full of doubts and confusion. She tried to recall how she got here, but she only vaguely remembered that she was in the sacrificial hall, surrounded by golden light, and then fell into darkness.

What on earth was going on? Fengjiu was confused for a moment, so she could only stand up carefully and look around. She saw mountains and lush trees, and could faintly hear the roar of waterfalls in the distance. The whole scene was like a paradise.

"Have I arrived in a fairyland?" Feng Jiu wondered in her heart. Just as she was about to explore, she suddenly heard a pleasant bird song. She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a colorful phoenix spreading its wings and flying, shining brightly in the sun.

Feng Jiu stared at the phoenix with her eyes wide open. She was so excited that she could see this magical and beautiful creature in this strange world.

At this moment, the phoenix suddenly turned sharply and swooped down towards Fengjiu. Fengjiu panicked and subconsciously took a few steps back, fearing that she would be hit by it.

But to her surprise, the phoenix did not attack her, but stopped very close to her and looked at her coldly. Feng Jiu looked at the phoenix carefully, and saw that it had a slender body, shining feathers, and sharp and noble eyes, as if examining something.

After a moment, the phoenix suddenly opened its hoarse throat and let out a deep and loud cry. The sound echoed in the valley like thunder, causing Fengjiu to tremble all over.

Before Fengjiu could react, the phoenix suddenly pounced forward, spread its wings, and completely covered Fengjiu under its wings.

"Ah!" Fengjiu screamed in surprise. Before she could react, she felt a powerful force instantly enveloping her, and then her whole body seemed to fall into endless darkness.

When she opened her eyes again, Fengjiu found herself in an unfamiliar environment. This was a grand and magnificent building, all white and inlaid with golden decorations, like a sacred palace. She was standing alone on a straight and wide corridor, with columns on both sides towering into the sky, casting thick shadows.

"Where is this? How did I get here?" Fengjiu couldn't help but talk to herself, her heart full of doubts and uneasiness. Just now, the phoenix enveloped her under its wings and then disappeared. She completely lost consciousness. Now she came to this strange palace again, and she couldn't help feeling a little panic and confusion.

Just as she was looking around, trying to find some clues, she saw a woman in gorgeous clothes suddenly walk out quickly from the palace door in front of her and walk straight towards her.

“Emperor, why are you here?” The woman bowed respectfully when she saw Feng Jiu, her tone full of fear and trepidation, “Haven’t we been waiting for you in the sacrificial hall for a long time? Why are you here?”

"What? Emperor?" Feng Jiu took a breath and stared at the woman with wide eyes, her heart filled with confusion and doubt. Could she really be some extraordinary person?

Seeing that Fengjiu didn't speak for a long time, the woman immediately stepped forward and asked with concern: "Emperor, are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to help you go to the palace to rest?"

Feng Jiu hesitated for a while, but decided to follow the woman's words. She cleared her throat and tried to speak in a steady tone: "It's okay, I don't feel uncomfortable. I just feel a little confused and don't know how I got here."

"This..." The woman was stunned when she heard this, "Have you, Your Majesty, forgotten what happened in the sacrificial hall just now?"

Sacrificial Hall? Feng Jiu frowned, vaguely recalling some vague memories. She recalled that she was wrapped in golden light, then fell into darkness, and then appeared in this strange palace.

Seeing Feng Jiu's confusion, the woman immediately explained: "So that's how it is. In the sacrificial hall, you, the Emperor, received the sacred power of Xuan Huang, which gave you the status of the Emperor now. However, we all thought that you were clear about this process."

Emperor? The sacred power of Xuanhuang? Fengjiu was completely confused and could not understand the meaning of these words. She had always thought that she was an ordinary woman, so how could she suddenly become such a great figure? All this made her feel surprised and confused.

Seeing Feng Jiu still looking confused, the woman stepped forward and said respectfully: "Emperor, let me explain it to you. You are actually the sacred emperor we have been waiting for for a long time. You have extraordinary power and status, and you are our supreme ruler. Today you received the sacred power of Xuanhuang in the sacrificial hall, which made you truly our goddess emperor."

At this point, the woman hurriedly added respectfully: "We all feel extremely honored and excited about this. We have been waiting in the palace for a long time, waiting for the emperor to appear. But we didn't expect that the emperor would appear here, which surprised us. However, we are all ecstatic and can't wait to offer the most sincere blessings and worship to the emperor immediately."

Holy Emperor? Goddess Emperor? Fengjiu was confused and her mind was in a mess. What on earth was going on? She clearly remembered that she was an ordinary woman before, how did she suddenly become the ruler here?

Just when she was puzzled, she heard the woman again respectfully say: "Since you are here, please follow me into the palace. The subjects in the palace are waiting for your arrival. I think they must have been eager to see you."

Hearing this, Feng Jiu nodded subconsciously. Although she was still confused and uneasy, since she had already confirmed that she was the ruler here, she couldn't go against the good intentions of the ministers. So, she followed the woman and slowly walked into the grand and magnificent hall in front of her.

As soon as she entered the palace, Feng Jiu's eyes lit up. She saw that the palace was magnificent and splendid, decorated with exquisite dragon and phoenix patterns everywhere, exuding a sacred and solemn atmosphere. In the center of the palace, a high throne stood there, surrounded by layers of stairs.

At this moment, both sides of the palace gate were filled with male and female officials dressed in gorgeous clothes, all of them with happy faces, staring at Feng Jiu intently. When they saw her enter the palace, all the officials immediately knelt on one knee in unison, shouting in unison: "Greetings to the Supreme Goddess Emperor!"

"Emperor!"

"goddess!"

"Long live!"

The deafening shouts echoed in the hall, making Fengjiu panic. She subconsciously looked around, and saw that the kneeling ministers all looked pious, with eyes full of reverence and worship. What was going on? Who was she to be worshipped by so many ministers?

Just when she was at a loss, the woman who had led her into the palace came forward again and said respectfully: "Emperor, please ascend the throne and sit down."

Fengjiu hesitated for a moment, but still walked slowly to the throne surrounded by the ministers, and sat down carefully under the gaze of everyone in the hall.
