them pass without a word. 。The coachman outside asked, "Where are we going now To the residence of General Yipin Please, Lord Chi, lead the way." 。"No, we're going to the Imperial Palace!" cried Zhu...Huǒ Fèng Wǔ is not a sudden whim of Yè Wēn Yán, but a confirmed existence.

It is an ancient sacrificial rite of the Xuan脈 Ye Family, used by those with the strongest spiritual power to dance in fire, dancing out the Phoenix Soul. The phoenix's cry summons spirits, thereby receiving guidance and enlightenment for the future.

Every head of the Fire Phoenix Dance Clan would practice the Xuanmai. Even Ye Wenyan had seen her grandfather practicing it at a young age. She herself began learning from the age of three. Each step, each posture and movement was strictly required to be precise. This included which foot to step into the fire first, how high to lift the foot, and the direction to face when entering the fire. All these details were meticulously considered.

She later summarized that the precision of movements in such a ritual should be like a real phone number. As long as every digit is accurate, you can dial the desired phone number. Otherwise, no matter how many times you dial, you won't be able to reach the person you want.

Just like Huofengwu, if you want to use its cries to ask questions, you must first dance out the fire phoenix. This requires precise and accurate movements, with every detail flawless. Otherwise, the fire phoenix won't appear, let alone be able to cry out to ask questions.

Ye Wen was the last head of the Xuan脈 Ye family. Her grandfather had passed away, and the Fire Phoenix Dance had been passed down for thousands, even tens of thousands of years. Through so many generations of heads, she was the one who danced it best. Or perhaps, she was the only one who communicated with the Fire Phoenix most smoothly.

Just now, as soon as we stepped into the fire, the Phoenix Soul was awakened and flew up, startling everyone who witnessed this scene.

On the peak of Yanhuashan, Di Zun Shi Liyuan silently watched a fire phoenix soaring towards Feidian from afar. The corner of his lips couldn't help but curl into a smile.

A fiery phoenix dances amidst flames, its cry echoing through the heavens. This is the aura her beloved desired, and it went beyond this.

A red light flashed, dashing towards the fire phoenix, converging in the night sky and giving out a dragon's roar.

The phoenix's cry accompanied by the dragon's roar made this year's New Year's Eve a historic one, and it will still be talked about for centuries to come.

Lian knelt on the top of Yan Hua mountain, his heart brimming with excitement. He asked his master, Li Yuan, "Master, could this be a sign that spiritual energy is reviving"

Shi Li Yuan shook his head, "Spiritual energy cannot be restored, but the Dao has already shown cracks. Perhaps by using this crack, we can break through the shackles of a human lifespan of only one decade. This is the opportunity for mortals, and it will also be the lifelong mission of this deity and Night Four Sister."

The phoenix soared in the flying palace, everyone was astonished by that fire phoenix rising up, some even saw the dragon's roar emerging from the red shadow.

Perhaps people don't know what the fire phoenix is, but everyone remembers what history records: the emperor Hong Ling, with a dragon as his soul, the dragon roared together, and the dragon soul settled the land.

At this moment, the dragon soul and dragon roar erupt together. Is this a warning that the Emperor wants to send to mortals

Everyone knelt down and shouted towards the red dragon, "Emperor's birthday! Emperor's birthday!"

The Sky Phoenix chuckled softly, no one could hear it, only the red dragon shadow could sense it. It casually asked, “What are you laughing at”

Huǒ Fèng's voice was light and playful: "Why aren't you staying in Yánhuá Palace You had to come join my festivities. Well then, is this a New Year's Eve dance with me Shī Lí Yuān, can you dance"

A woman dances in the midst of flames, her movements seeming to coexist with the roaring fire. No matter how she twirls and leaps, the flames do not harm her in the slightest.

Someone discovered that Sister Ye Si had a faint silver light surrounding her body, with a protective layer of silver light. Fire couldn't get close to her, no matter how she danced.

Now, let's look at Li's sister's performance. Although her knife-dancing was rare and graceful, when compared to the other performance, it seemed rather simplistic and lacked any real appeal.

All eyes were on Ye Wen, except for the Li family, no one else cared what Li Yanran was doing. Even the Li family members at this moment were attracted by the fire phoenix and red dragon in mid-air, each of them guessing: besides the red dragon, when could the Sovereign Emperor conjure a fire phoenix

Yes, no one thought that the fire phoenix was summoned by Ye Wenyan. Everyone believed it was because the Emperor's spiritual power had advanced again, adding a phoenix soul besides the dragon soul. The dragon and phoenix meeting in mid-air symbolized peace and prosperity for Beqi, a great auspicious sign.

Many were moved to tears and some even kowtowed repeatedly in the direction of Yanhuapalace.

Ye Wen looked at this scene, the smile on her lips deepening. She wasn't just smiling though, she was also trying to communicate with the Phoenix.

Huǒ Fèng Wǔ is a sacrificial ceremony, seeking divine guidance. Every night, the head of each generation of the Ye family uses this form to seek answers for their confusion.

But though she had skipped the ceremony in her past life, she had never used it to ask any questions.

Because of Grandfather, the future of the Ye family is already very clear. Asking Feng Ming again would be pointless. The Fire Phoenix Dance could only give hints, but it couldn't provide a solution. It was a premonition, but not a life-saving measure.

Ye Wen deeply agreed with this.

But today, as the phoenix rose again, she suddenly wanted to ask about this Northern Qi. This place that didn't exist in her familiar history and was completely unfamiliar to her. Was it truly here Would she meet the person she longed for here

She also wanted to ask about the future of this Northern Qi, and if there was any possibility of breaking through the limit of a lifespan of one generation.

Since she has come, she cannot merely live for sixty years; otherwise, this journey would have been in vain.

Yes, it's asking Feng to do this, and this is the real reason why she challenged Li Yanran to a duel.

Women's petty rivalries have never been something she cared about. She wouldn't do anything she didn't want to, and no one could coerce her in any way. Even if Li Yanran challenged her to a dance in front of so many people, if she had no interest, she could easily crush the petals and cripple Li Yanran's dancing feet.

I agreed because I wanted to take this opportunity to perform a Huofengwu dance.

At this moment, the person is in fire, yet they don't feel the heat. It's impossible for flames to burn her clothes or body.

Under the embrace of spiritual energy, dancing in fire and dancing outside fire make no difference.

What surprised her was Shi Li Yuan's crimson dragon shadow appearing. It wasn't until this moment that she realized Shi Li Yuan had already cultivated a dragon soul within his primordial spirit. That person's primordial spirit was indeed alive.

This is good too, phoenixes cry and dragons roar, flags and drums clash equally, she likes this feeling.

At the middle of the dance, ask the phoenix to begin.

One question, where exactly is this Northern Qi located!

Phoenix's answer: A time-space vortex, beyond dimensions.

Then ask her if she can see the person she longs for!

The Phoenix replied: "It can be seen, wait for the path to open, wait for the sea route to merge."

Can the shackles of three questions be opened, and can a lifespan of sixty years be extended!

Phoenix answer: Phoenix dance meets dragon's roar, mortal flowers bloom again. The day of breaking the path is the time to be a hundred years old and long-lived.

Finally, perhaps because Fire Phoenix met with the Red Dragon and felt good, she even gave her a free enlightenment—

Northern Qi recently experienced a major upheaval, with widespread disasters!

The Scarlet Dragon retreated, the Fire Phoenix descended, and Ye Wen heard a scream from beside her, it was Li Jie, who was performing a knife dance.

The questioning of the phoenix was conducted in a state of consciousness, and no one heard it. People only watched the dragons and phoenixes dance in the night sky, forgetting that too much time had passed. Time passed until even Li Jiajie could no longer hold on. Her light kung fu broke, her feet landed on the blades, blood splattered everywhere, and she rolled directly from the blade formation to the ground.

Mrs. Li, surnamed Tao, let out a shriek and rushed forward, tightly embracing her daughter while frantically calling out, "Doctor! Quickly summon a doctor to save my daughter! Her leg cannot be crippled, please save her!"

Only then did people remember that there was someone else dancing, and that this was a competition, a contest fought to the death.

Then everyone looked at Li Yanran, and at the same time saw Sister Ye Si gracefully stepping out from the fire, unharmed.

Someone was amazed that Sister Four wouldn't be afraid of fire at night, and even her clothes wouldn't burn. Could she have used some sorcery

Some people lamented that Li's elder sister was such a good person, but now her feet were covered in blood, staining the ground. If things weren't handled properly, she might even break her tendons.

Tao was almost crazy, and Li Zhiyuan rushed over here, constantly shouting for the imperial physician.

Empress Dowager Li could no longer stand idly by. She personally summoned the imperial physicians to treat Li Yanran's injuries and ordered palace maids to carry her to Yong'an Palace for temporary residence.

Tao followed along, while Li Zhiyuan couldn't go to the inner palace and could only stay behind.

But he wasn't idle either. He immediately pointed at Ye Wen as the culprit and declared, "Being able to dance in the fire is clearly the work of a demon! Sister Ye Si is an anomaly, a monster here to harm humans!"

Then someone objected to this. Wu Fei then brought up the life-or-death agreement signed before the competition: "The challenge was initiated by the eldest daughter of the Li family, who insisted on it despite advice and even signed a life-or-death agreement. Now that the Li family has lost, they are blaming Ye Si's sister instead. Is the Li family too domineering Do you think all the rules and regulations in Lin'an City are decided by your family"

Then someone in the crowd started chanting, "The Li family can't accept defeat! They signed a death pact and are still blaming Sister Ye Si They really have no dignity!"

Li Zhiyuan gritted his teeth in anger, "Don't you even think about why she can dance in the fire at night Is this something normal people would do If she is a demonic being, she would be a threat to the entire Lin'an and even the entire Beiqi. Today it's my Li family who has fallen, tomorrow it might be the Zhang family or the Wang family, sooner or later someone will fall into her hands!"

"Lord Li, who are you cursing" Ye Wenyan walked back to Mu's side with a smile,挽著 her arm and asked Li Zhiyuan, "Is it not enough that the Li family is having bad luck Do you want to drag other official residences into this chaos To curse like this during the New Year, the Li family's hearts are too wicked."

Nightingale's words angered the officials present, those surnamed Zhang and Li. At that moment, he started a verbal altercation with Li Zhideyuan.

For a time, outside the great hall was in complete chaos.

Feng Zhaolian giggled and rubbed against Ye Wenyan, grabbing his arm and shaking it. "I knew our little beauty was the best! This move is too cool, even I have to concede defeat."

Jiang Wanting and Chi Feifei also came closer. Chi Feifei boldly predicted: "Li Yanran's foot is probably going to be bad, and in the future, she might even become a cripple. Wen Yan, this means you have directly destroyed the Li family's hopes."

Jiang Wanting laughed and said, "Let him dream the grand dream of the Li family! Having one empress isn't enough, he still wants to hope for another. Are they trying to say that the North Qi imperial court is fixed as their own This is like trying to take it all!"

Yefeiyu stood aside, constantly sizing up Yevenyan, afraid she would have even the slightest bit of harm.

At this moment, the envoy of Guiyue seemed to have been awakened by the scene just now where the Fire Phoenix charged. His mind whirled and he quickly came up with an idea...rmer Minister of Punishment's elder sister also pleaded for half a day before leaving. You should hurry back as well!Zhuier recalled meeting the Jiang family at the temple, and Chi Hongfang also remem...
