Phoenix Cry Mountain: A fallen phoenix cries across the nine heavens, reborn in fire as dragon and phoenix illuminate the world!

After watching the invasion plot of this world, Ling Yi kept thinking about how to ruin the ending.

In the grand finale, the male and female leads successfully get together, and the two emperors of the Great Qian Empire ascend to the throne, ushering in Great Qian age that lasts for a thousand years.

So what's the fastest way to end Honkai Impact 3rd?

Kill the male and female leads?

No, killing the male and female leads and invading the Plot Rules won't cause the story to collapse. Either new male and female leads will automatically emerge, or the male and female leads Revive.

The storyline changes from the first playthrough to the second or even the third playthrough.

Just like in Qin Shuang's world, the death of the Protagonist does not resolve the plot collapse; it only causes the male and female protagonists to enter Infinite Reincarnation, entering a second cycle of the story.

Once you enter the second playthrough, breaking the Plot Rules becomes very difficult.

If you don't kill off the male and female leads, the first thing you need to do to change the ending is to separate them. Not only should they be separated, but they should also become enemies, preferably mortal enemies.

Imagine the male protagonist is a time traveler, a science student, possessing the knowledge and abilities of the future.

No matter where you are, whether Dangshan, you can quickly grow up to be a capable leader.

The male protagonist was an ambitious person who transmigrated to this world to start a rebellion.

However, because of the Empress, the rebellion became an act of helping his wife.

But without the Empress as a Karma, the male protagonist would definitely rebel.

Won't the male and female leads become mortal enemies?

As for whether the male and female leads will still be attracted to each other? With Ling Yi around, of course not.

Ling Yi is Plot Ravagers. As long as the female lead stays by Ling Yi's side, she will not be affected by the Plot Rules and will be able to be herself.

How could an empress, unaffected by the Plot Rules, possibly fall for a bandit?

Unless the Empress is out of her mind.

Of course, that's not enough.

Although the male protagonist rebels to overthrow the empress, there's a chance that the empress might grant him amnesty because she values his abilities.

Ling Yi wants to create a reason for the male protagonist to either kill the Empress or be killed by the Empress.

Inside the dilapidated temple, Ying Xue and Lü Yuan were eating roasted meat.

The roasted meat comes from the two Rabbit that Ling Yi hunted.

Rabbit the size of a lamb.

This was the first time Ling Yi had ever seen such a large Rabbit; it was abnormally large.

This also shows that the level of energy in this world is quite high; otherwise, it wouldn't have become a super martial arts world.

Animals in the Main World are dangerous, especially in the wild.

It's not just Rabbit that are big; almost all animals are large.

However, these animals are only large in size; they have not evolved into Demonic Beast or Magical Beast beasts.

Those destined to be food will remain food, and those destined to be mounts will remain mounts.

They are simply stronger in terms of strength, size, and speed.

But this world is a world of super martial arts, where animals are strong, but humans are even stronger.

The Rabbit is Rabbit this world, but the seasoning is one that Ling Yi had previously stored in his storage ring in Qin Shuang's world.

Ling Yi has a storage ring and travels between multiple worlds, so he naturally collects some useful or potentially useful items.

We can't rely entirely on Regret Points for winning prizes, can we?

"You said before that there are people in the stronghold you can't see or touch? What did you mean?" Ying Xue asked casually after cutting off a piece of meat with her dagger and putting it in her mouth.

It's not that I can't see or move, but that you can't see or move.

"That's utter nonsense! My young lady has never been to Phoenix Cry Mountain. How could there possibly be someone here whom she can't move or see?"

Before Ying Xue could speak, Lü Yuan started chattering again.

"Furthermore, do you know who my young lady is? There is no one in the entire world that my young lady cannot touch or see."

"Do you know why this place is called Phoenix Cry Mountain? 'Cry' means 'mourning,' and it refers to a phoenix with broken wings, crying out in the heavens. Hence, Phoenix Cry Mountain," Ling Yi said.

This wasn't something Ling Yi made up; it's from the original text.

However, there's a second part to that statement.

Though the phoenix cries out in sorrow, it rises from the ashes to Revive, a dragon and phoen

These words were spoken by the Grand Preceptor of the Great Qian Empire, but that was in the original storyline, when Ying Xue returned to the capital six months later and met with the Grand Preceptor.

The Imperial Advisor, like Ling Yi, only spoke the first half of his sentence, and didn't finish his sentence either.

The second half of the sentence was not said in front of Ying Xue, but rather uttered by the Grand Preceptor to himself in private after Ying Xue left.

This imperial advisor is actually the most deeply hidden villain in the original storyline.

The Grand Tutor's Shadow is behind almost every major event in the original storyline.

It wasn't until the very end of the story, just before the Imperial Advisor was dying, that he uttered the second half of his sentence. But by then, Ye Feng and Ying Xue already had a child.

Whether the second half of the sentence is said or not is irrelevant.

"Do you know who I am?" Ying Xue asked, frowning.

"I didn't know before I met you, but I knew after I met you. I overheard this sentence by chance, and it was because of this sentence that I went to Phoenix Cry Mountain."

"After serving as a lackey at Phoenix Cry Mountain for three years, if it weren't for your intervention, I would have left Phoenix Cry Mountain Stronghold today and headed to the capital."

"Who exactly are you!" Ying Xue stared at Ling Yi with her beautiful phoenix eyes, instantly releasing an aura of imperial power.

Unfortunately, this imperial aura had no effect on Ling Yi.

As expected of the Empress, no, as expected of the female lead, even in her fallen state, even with dirt on her face, her stunning beauty remains undeniable.

If the dirt on her face were removed, the empress would probably be even more beautiful.

"My name is Ling Yi, Ling as in 'reaching the Ling Jue,' and Yi as in 'strange.' I came to Phoenix Cry Mountain to find the Phoenix Emperor because of the second half of that sentence."

"The first half of the statement should be verified, but I'm very curious to know whether the second half can be verified."

"What's the second half of the sentence?" Ying Xue asked.

"I can't say now," Ling Yi said, taking a bite of a Rabbit leg and shaking his head.

Ying Xue frowned, not knowing why, but she really wanted to punch Ling Yi.

Accustomed to being in control and high above everyone else, the Empress was now feeling extremely frustrated because of Ling Yi's few words.

When had she, a dignified empress, ever suffered such humiliation?

Unfortunately, he couldn't defeat Ling Yi.

Even if she and Lü Yuan recovered, they still couldn't win, so they could only endure this frustration.

"But don't worry, I'm here to help you. From now on, as long as I'm here, no one will be able to bully you," Ling Yi said earnestly.

"With me, Lü Yuan Duck, protecting my young lady is enough; she doesn't need you."

"Really? Three experts have arrived outside. Although they're disguised, the weapons they carry belong to the Brocade Guard. All three are junior officers; they'll be yours later."

The junior officers of the Brocade Guard are all masters of Innate talent, or possess Innate Battle Power.

Lü Yuan is currently suffering from cold poison in her body and cannot use any Internal Energy at all.

Let alone those at the Innate, they can't even beat Martial Practitioner at the third or fourth level of the Acquired.

A junior officer in the Brocade Guard is not a minor official in this world; within the Brocade Guard, they are considered top-tier Battle Power.

After the small flags come the thousand guards, and after the thousand guards come the general flags.

Throughout the entire Great Qian Empire, there is only one General Banner Commander with the cultivation level of Grandmaster, and nine Guards with the cultivation level of Master.

There are no more than three thousand six hundred small flags, all of which are Innate.

The Brocade Guard was originally a pillar of the imperial court protecting the Great Qian Empire, but unfortunately, it has now secretly submitted to the Grand Preceptor.

The reason Ying Xue and Lü Yuan were in such a predicament was because of the pursuit by the Brocade Guard.

As for why the Empress of the mighty Great Qian Empire was being hunted down, it was because she had nothing better to do than to go on an incognito visit.

In the capital, because of the Black Phoenix Guard, no one dared to lay a hand on the Empress.

But things are a different story once you leave the capital.

" The Brocade Guard, a junior officer?" Lü Yuan immediately tensed up.

He took out two daggers from his waist and watched the entrance to the dilapidated temple warily.

After waiting for a long time, no one came in and no sound was heard. Lü Yuan even went outside to look, but she didn't see a single person.

"There's no one outside! You're lying to me!" Lü Yuan Duck said angrily to Ling Yi.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she Yinyin heard voices in the distance.

However, because it was far away, I couldn't hear it very clearly.

"Good luck, Lü Yuan Duck! I believe you can defeat three Brocade Guard squad leaders at the Innate Realm and protect your young lady." Ling Yi gave Lü Yuan a cheering gesture.

"Miss, let's go quickly." Lü Yuan's face looked rather grim.

If she hadn't been poisoned by the cold, and was at her peak, she would have been quite confident in killing three small flags.

But now, she's at her limit; how could she possibly protect the Empress?

Ying Xue, however, remained completely still, continuing to eat her grilled meat.

"You should be able to protect me, right?" Ying Xue asked, glancing at Ling Yi.

"Miss, you actually believe this guy? These three Brocade Guard sergeants must have been brought here by him, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?"

Ling Yi glanced at Ying Xue, then tapped his temple and asked, "Is there something wrong with your guard here?"

"Hey, what do you mean?"

I mean, you're stupid!

" Ling Yi, how dare you call me stupid? You, you believe me or not, I'll bite you!" Lü Yuan was so angry she wanted to hit someone, but remembering the scene of Ling Yi shattering the meteorite iron sword with a flick of his finger, she knew she couldn't beat Ling Yi.

So the words you're about to say often taste different the moment they're about to come out.

"Isn't that so? If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't have dragged you out of the mountain stronghold. If I wanted to kill you, why would I need anyone else to do it?"

"Has your brain been completely new since birth?"

"What's the meaning?"

"It means you 'Dadu used your brain in your entire life!"

"Pfft!" Ying Xue couldn't help but laugh when she heard Ling Yi's words were interesting.

The Empress smiled, and that was something extraordinary.

She was truly stunningly beautiful, with charm at its peak, leaving Ling Yi momentarily stunned.

"Miss, you're laughing at me!" Lü Yuan said, feeling wronged.

"You should say less. We have to trust Ling Yi now, and we can only trust Ling Yi," Ying Xue said, her smile fading as she shook her head.

Ling Yi gave Ying Xue a thumbs up. "As expected of the Empress, you're so smart."

At this moment, the three Brocade Guard squad leaders had already approached the dilapidated temple.

"According to our information, the woman was last seen near Phoenix Cry County. Beyond Phoenix Cry Mountain lies the border region," one of them Human Dao.

"Yes, she probably wants to go to the border and, with the help of the border guards, return to the capital."

"The other squads are on their way and are blocking all the exits of Phoenix Cry Mountain. We must not let her reach the border."

"Hmm, there's a light coming from the dilapidated temple ahead; it seems there are people there."

"Do you think that woman might be inside this dilapidated temple?"
