Goddess Emperor Phoenix: Rebirth Against Heaven

The goddess Di Huang was bathed in the soft moonlight, staring at the sparkling lake in front of her. Countless stars twinkled by the lake, adding a bit of mystery to the quiet night. She squinted her eyes slightly, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow on her cheek.

She is the ruler of this divine domain, possessing endless power and authority. But at this moment, her heart is stirred up by an unprecedented wave.

Today, she met a girl from a remote mountain village in the palace. The girl had a pair of clear eyes, as if she could see through a person's soul. She had never seen such pure and thorough eyes, and Di Huang was deeply attracted to her instantly.

The girl introduced herself, her name was Xue'e. She had amazing cultivation, but she lived in seclusion in the mountains, not caring about worldly affairs. When Emperor Huang asked her why she didn't go out to explore the world, Xue'e just smiled and said: "I don't seek fame, wealth or power, I only practice to pursue what I want in my heart, this is my life creed."

Emperor Huang had never met such a noble soul, and she was immediately filled with admiration. She wanted to keep Xue'e by her side immediately so that they could have a good exchange and discussion. But Xue'e politely declined, saying that she had made a vow and must abide by it.

Di Huang looked at Xue'e's receding back, and an indescribable sense of loss rose in her heart. She had never longed for someone's company so much, and never longed for someone's uniqueness so much.

"Xue'e, who are you? Why can you attract my heart so deeply?" Emperor Huang murmured to himself.

Late at night, Di Huang paced alone in the palace corridor. Her consciousness drifted through bits and pieces of the past, recalling Xue'e's figure over and over again.

Suddenly, a pleasant singing voice came from afar, accompanied by waves of elegant fragrance. Emperor Huang stopped to listen, and saw a woman in a moon-white dress approaching slowly, singing a melodious and beautiful voice that made people intoxicated.

The woman had skin as white as jade, and her features were beautiful. As she slowly walked over, she stretched out her hand and gently swept the flowers and plants beside her, causing the petals to fall one after another and float in the air, looking as beautiful as a fairy.

Di Huang was distracted for a moment, and felt that the woman in front of her was like a dreamy fairy, and she couldn't take her eyes off her.

The woman walked closer and closer until she stopped in front of Emperor Huang. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I am the fairy Xue'e from the Western Regions. I was invited to visit you tonight."

Di Huang opened his eyes wide in surprise and murmured in disbelief: "Xue'e? Is that you?"

Xue'e nodded, a hint of mischief flashed in her eyes. "Your Majesty, don't be surprised. I am indeed the person you think about day and night. I know you have a crush on me, so I came here specially for a while."

Emperor Huang was suddenly excited and asked: "If that's the case, why did you decline earlier and not want to stay with me?"

Xue'e smiled gently: "I am a cultivator. I only care about cultivation and practice. How can I have any thoughts about fame and fortune? I am not here to join your court, but just to have a chat with you."

She paused, and looked at Di Huang with burning eyes: "Your Majesty, I can see that you are a little attracted to me. But our cultivation realms are so different that it is difficult for us to know each other and fall in love. I just want you to comfort the heart of an ordinary woman and not put me in too high a position."

Emperor Huang was slightly startled, then frowned: "You said that there is a huge difference between our cultivation levels, but aren't you all immortals? How can you tell who is better?"

Xue'e sighed: "Your Majesty, do you know that there are differences between us cultivators and mortals? I am a Mahayana fairy who has reached the pinnacle of cultivation. My cultivation has reached the late stage of the Golden Core. I can be said to be a rare genius in the fairy world. And you, although you are also a cultivator, are still far behind me. The gap between us is too big and difficult to bridge."

Upon hearing this, Di Huang's pupils shrank slightly, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face. She had never thought that this fairy with bright eyes, white teeth, gentleness and moving grace had actually reached such a level of cultivation.

After a long while, Emperor Huang slowly spoke: "If that's the case, why did you come to see me? Is it just to tell me that there is an unbridgeable gap between us?"

Xue'e shook her head and smiled: "No, Your Majesty. The reason I came here is to let you know that although I have a high level of cultivation, I am still an ordinary woman in my heart. I admire your talent and like your character, so I took the initiative to come and visit you."

She stretched out her jade hand and gently stroked Di Huang's cheek, her eyes as gentle as water: "Your Majesty, I know you have a good impression of me, and I appreciate your kindness. But after all, we are from two different worlds, and there will inevitably be all kinds of barriers between you and me. So I only ask you to comfort the heart of an ordinary woman like me, and don't put me in too high a position. I am already very satisfied to be able to meet you once."

Emperor Huang stared at the fairy in front of him blankly, and nodded after a while: "Okay, I understand. I will try not to put you in a high position, just treat you as an ordinary woman, and get along with me on an equal footing."

Xue'e smiled with satisfaction and turned to leave. But at this moment, she suddenly stopped and looked back at Di Huang: "By the way, I have one more thing to tell you."

Emperor Huang looked at her in confusion: "What's the matter?"

Xue'e's eyes flashed with a cunning look: "I heard that you are looking for a top alchemist recently, wanting to refine a more powerful pill. It happens that I am quite accomplished in alchemy. If you are interested, why not let me help you?"

Emperor Huang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened: "You, you can also make pills?"

Xue'e chuckled: "Yes, I am a master in the alchemy world. Of course, I am not here to help you for fame, wealth or power, but I really want to have more contact with you. So, Your Majesty, are you willing to accept my help?"

Emperor Huang pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "In that case, I will gladly accept it. Ever since I heard of your great name, I have always wanted to personally witness your alchemy skills. Then, come with me to the palace tomorrow, and I will arrange a special alchemy room for you to use."

Xue'e nodded, a look of satisfaction in her eyes: "Very good, then it's settled. See you tomorrow, Your Majesty."

After saying this, she bowed lightly and her figure gradually disappeared in the moonlight.

Standing alone on the curved corridor, Di Huang could not calm down for a long time. Her heart was filled with longing and admiration for this fairy, and she wished she could stay by her side immediately to have a good exchange and discussion.

"Xue'e, who are you? You have attracted my attention so deeply. Tomorrow I will ask you about the secret of alchemy, hoping to find opportunities to communicate with you more." Emperor Huang whispered to himself, with anticipation in his eyes.

The next morning, Emperor Huang personally came to the palace's alchemy room, eagerly waiting for Xue'e's arrival. After a while, Xue'e came in slowly, holding an exquisite alchemy furnace in her hand.

"Your Majesty, I'm here." Xue'e smiled slightly and placed the alchemy furnace on the table.

Emperor Huang hurried forward and carefully looked at the alchemy furnace in Xue'e's hand. The alchemy furnace had a unique shape and exuded a faint fairy spirit, which made people want to touch it.

"Is this your alchemy furnace? It looks so beautiful." Emperor Huang admired sincerely.

Xue'e nodded: "Yes, this alchemy furnace was made by me, integrating many immortal crafting techniques. If you are interested, I can teach you how to make it."

Emperor Huang's eyes lit up: "That's great! I have always wanted to learn the art of alchemy, but I have always been troubled by not being able to find a good teacher. Since you are willing to teach me, I will do my best to learn."

Xue'e smiled slightly, took out a crystal clear pill from the alchemy furnace, and handed it to Di Huang: "This is an elixir I recently refined, you can try it."

Di Huang carefully took the pill and looked at it carefully. She saw that the pill exuded a faint fragrance, as if it could cleanse the soul. She took a deep breath and put the pill into her mouth.

A warm current instantly surged through her body, and Di Huang felt extremely relaxed, with her blood flowing freely. She opened her eyes wide in surprise, unable to believe what was happening before her eyes.

"This, this elixir is so magical, it can improve my cultivation so quickly! Xue'e, you are really an amazing alchemist."

Xue'e smiled and nodded: "This pill is a special elixir I recently developed. It can quickly improve your cultivation and is very helpful for some cultivators who are at a bottleneck. I believe you will definitely make a breakthrough from it."

Emperor Huang nodded repeatedly: "That's great! Why don't we start learning the art of alchemy right away? I can't wait to master this magical skill."

Xue'e chuckled: "Okay, then let me teach you step by step."

In the following time, Emperor Huang followed Xue'e to learn alchemy wholeheartedly, and tried to refine various elixirs again and again. Xue'e patiently pointed out the way, and gradually let Emperor Huang understand the secret.

Under Xue'e's guidance, Di Huang's alchemy skills improved by leaps and bounds, becoming more and more proficient. Her eyes sparkled with joy, and she wished she could master this skill immediately.

"Xue'e, you are such a great teacher! With you here, my alchemy skills have improved rapidly. I am so grateful to you." Di Huang said sincerely.

Xue'e smiled faintly: "Your Majesty is too polite. I am just doing my best. Your talent is extraordinary. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will soon master the art of alchemy."

Emperor Huang nodded repeatedly: "Yes, thanks to your guidance, I can make such rapid progress. Speaking of which, we have been together for so long, can you please stop calling me 'Your Majesty'? Just call me by my name."

Xue'e was slightly stunned, then said gently: "Okay, that's it, Di Huang."

The two got along well, concentrating on alchemy in the alchemy room day after day. Gradually, Emperor Huang's admiration for Xue'e turned into a special attachment and attachment.

Xue'e gradually let go of her initial guard and showed some affinity towards Di Huang. Sometimes she would patiently teach Di Huang, and sometimes she would chat with her, slowly narrowing the distance between the two.

In the process, Di Huang discovered that Xue'e was no longer just a fairy who was high above her, but a warm and amiable woman. The relationship between them gradually surpassed the simple master-disciple relationship and became a true close friend.

That day, when the two were concentrating on refining the elixir in the alchemy room again, Xue'e suddenly stopped what she was doing, looked at Di Huang and said seriously: "Di Huang, I want to tell you something."

Emperor Huang looked at her in confusion: "What's the matter, Xue'e? Do you have anything to say?"

Xue'e took a deep breath and said seriously: "I actually knew long ago that you have special feelings for me, not just admiration and worship. I have been observing you and thinking about how to respond to you."
