I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1891: Chapter 1891: Hong Ying’s First Life

A vast stretch of ruined main hall of the Imperial Palace, with crumbling walls and broken pillars, nowhere intact; yet even so, one could discern how opulent and majestic the complete palace once was.

War flames spread everywhere, even the entire sky and space were scorched to a fiery red.

The cries of children, the wails of the commoners, the roars of warriors, all converged into a tragic and desperate symphony echoing through this palace.

Above the sky, countless lightning dragons emerged from the clouds, their dragon heads peering out, eyes fierce, breathing out lightning with each breath.

Above those dragons, a man seemingly without a physical form, his body void-like, gazed down indifferently, overlooking the empire engulfed by war flames.

And beneath the sky, above the empire, hundreds of soldiers clad in armor, wielding spears, knives, or swords, their aura despondent, as if fighting to the death as the dynasty’s last bulwark.

Among these hundreds of soldiers, leading them was the Empress Hong Ying, clad in red armor stained with dark red blood, exuding a heroic yet mournful beauty.

Hong Ying looked upon these scenes, memories flowing like tides in her mind.

This was Hong Ying’s first life, when she was the Empress of the Cloud Phoenix Empire, waging wars on the Heavenly Road, giving the people of the Wilderness Realm a chance to enter other realms and waging wars against the heavens.

Yet, at this time, the Cloud Phoenix Empire was also destined to fail, leading to its destruction.

The empire’s demise, the Nine Heavens Tribe suppressed, Hong Ying died in battle, but relied on the Nine Cycles Reincarnation Technique to live again and reincarnate.

Seeing this scene, Hong Ying couldn’t help but sigh, her heart heavy.

It was too tragic then...too many people died, too many subordinates.

Hong Ying, lost in the scene, didn’t even notice the person by her side.

”It seems this was your past life; no wonder you carry the emperor’s intent, it turns out you were once an empress in your past life.”

Hong Ying was slightly stunned, swiftly turning her head to look at the man beside, it was Chu Yan.

”Why have you followed me?” Hong Ying slightly frowned.

Chu Yan smiled and said, ”Do I need a reason to get close to you? Moreover...” at this, Chu Yan glanced at the Empress Hong Ying in red armor in mid-air and looked meaningfully at Hong Ying, laughed boldly: ”You are the one I’ve, Chu Yan, always wanted to get close to.”

”No wonder I sense a familiar aura from you, perhaps you’re avoiding me after I took your Sun and Moon Token and covered your head?”

Upon hearing this, Hong Ying understood that the other had seen through her true identity.

The cover on Hong Ying’s face didn’t fade, she merely said softly: ”I’m not so frivolous.”

Chu Yan didn’t mind Hong Ying’s aloofness, shrugged and said, ”This is your past life, but logically speaking, since I followed into this place, there should also be my reincarnation scenario here.”

Hong Ying also thought of this issue.

There should be absolutely no overlapping spots in their past lives, or does it mean...this mirror’s reincarnation world calculates based on whoever enters first as their past life?

But Hong Ying temporarily didn’t want to delve, now that entering the scene of the first life, how to pass this trial?

Seeing through Hong Ying’s thoughts, Chu Yan chuckled, ”Why think so much? Why not remedy the regrets of the first life and intervene to see if you can change the outcome? After all, it won’t change the present outcome.”

Upon hearing this, Hong Ying glanced at Chu Yan.

Indeed, the regret of the first life had accompanied Hong Ying through nine reincarnations.

This has been a knot in her heart all along.

Judging from the current scene.

Sooner than an incense stick to burn, the Cloud Phoenix Empire would be utterly destroyed.

All soldiers would die, the Imperial Preceptor would fall, the Nine Heavens Tribe suppressed, Hong Ying’s body destroyed and plunged into reincarnation.

Hong Ying looked up at the lightning dragons emerging from the clouds, as well as at the void man standing atop the dragon-cloud.

Given her current strength, there should be no challenge in crushing the opponent.

Moreover.

The present Hong Ying not only possesses the Heart of the Wilderness Realm and the Low Latitude Realm but also the Heart of the Mortal Realm...

It’s not an exaggeration to say.

Hong Ying now controls the lifeline of the entire Mortal Realm, three major latitudes, countless realms of various sizes.

Or rather...Hong Ying is the Heavenly Dao of the Mortal Realm.

Thinking of this, Hong Ying’s gaze fiercely lifted to the void man above the clouds.

Directly reaching out towards him, pressing down fiercely!

The emperor’s intent and reincarnation power were fully unleashed at this moment, combined with the power of the Heart of Latitude.

White robes fluttered, at this moment, Hong Ying seemed to be the master of this world.

Even Chu Yan watching from the side couldn’t help but furrow his brows, his gaze heavy.

If it were during the fight over the Sun and Moon Token here, even Chu Yan might not have the full confidence to seize it from Hong Ying.

But what Chu Yan didn’t know was.

If Hong Ying had fully unleashed the power of the Heart of the Mortal Realm, along with the emperor’s intent and reincarnation power, plus the magic treasure given by her master, Chu Yan undoubtedly would not be a match.

But at that time, Hong Ying didn’t want to expose too much of the Mortal Realm’s power.

As the ruler of the Mortal Realm, if her identity were exposed, even the empress left, this would be exploited by the opportunists to attack the Mortal Realm.

With the commander absent, it would undoubtedly leave the rear vulnerable, highly prone to invasion taking advantage of the void.

Now, Hong Ying had none of these concerns, looking at the void man above the clouds with rage in her eyes.

At this moment.

The earth shook, and the sky trembled!

All the lightning dragons above the clouds turned to ash in an instant! The clouds began to fall, the void man’s previously indifferent gaze now changed expression.

Under Hong Ying’s strike, the void man glanced at Hong Ying, a strange glint in his eyes, a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, then dissipated in this suppressive power.

And in this cycle of time and space, all the soldiers of the Cloud Phoenix Empire, including Empress Hong Ying, were momentarily stunned.

They scanned the surroundings, but couldn’t see the presence of Hong Ying.

Empress Hong Ying bowed towards the void, saying loudly: ”Thank you, senior, for your assistance!”

Hong Ying herself watched this scene, a sigh on her face.

At this point, Chu Yan said with a smile, ”This reincarnation has been changed by you; what will happen next?”

Hong Ying glanced at Chu Yan, saying lightly, ”What do you want to say?”

Chu Yan shook his head, smiled, ”Just curious, the process can change, but the result is not so easy to change...”

It was clear, these words meant that the fate of the Cloud Phoenix Empire heading toward ruin could not easily be changed.

As the saying goes.

Things’ outcomes are predestined by heaven; changing it is like going against the heavens.

Upon hearing this, Hong Ying frowned slightly, she also understood this.

But she too wanted to see, having broken through all the heavens, to what extent would the Cloud Phoenix Empire reach.

Suddenly.

The surrounding scene began to twist, the previously tragic scene of continuous war dissipating like Mirror Flower Water Moon.

Replaced by the brighter rebuilt Cloud Phoenix Empire.

Yet, beneath the glorious exterior, it was filled with death...
