   The tumultuous life of the Fengdu Emperor + the humorous and loyal Black and White Impermanence. — *The Legend of Fengdu*! Please try the dish! — A moment later, a ragged figure slowly rose from the thick smoke and dust, then floated into the air. The severely injured Western Emperor, Zhenren, was in a rather disheveled state. He glared viciously at the Great Xia Emperor. "Cough cough... Good! Good you, Great Xia Emperor! Today I am defeated here, but one day I will lead a million Yin soldiers to slaughter your capital!" With that, the Western Emperor, Zhenren, slashed his hand across the void in front of him, and a black spatial rift appeared. The Western Emperor, Zhenren, turned back and glared fiercely at the Great Xia Emperor, then without hesitation, stepped into the spatial rift and disappeared. "Trying to run?" The Emperor's face darkened, and he also casually slashed his hand across the void in front of him, then stepped into it and disappeared as well. Crown Prince Si Zhenting was greatly surprised by this. "Father, don't pursue a cornered enemy!" The crowd below was stunned by the scene. It seemed the Great Xia Emperor was determined to keep the Western Emperor here! A moment later, the void in the sky rippled, and then a spatial rift appeared, from which two figures leaped out. Looking again, the Great Xia Emperor stood majestically high in the sky, one hand gripping the Western Emperor's neck. The Western Emperor, however, hung limply in the air like a dead dog. Zhang Xuanyi was also greatly surprised; the Great Xia Emperor was indeed incredibly powerful! The Emperor coldly looked at the Western Emperor: "I said I would eliminate you today, and I will! I want to show Ji Kang that Great Xia is not something you, the Underworld, can manipulate!" The Western Emperor suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the Great Xia Emperor with venomous glare. "I admit you are indeed very strong! But if you want to get rid of me... Hehe, then let's go together!" With that, the Western Emperor suddenly grabbed the Great Xia Emperor tightly, and a dazzling light erupted from his body! "How dare you?!" The Emperor was shocked! He tried to break free but was held firmly by the Western Emperor! To everyone's astonishment, the dazzling light instantly engulfed the two of them, as if a small sun had appeared in the sky! A deafening explosion resounded high in the sky! Then, a terrifying surge of true energy rapidly swept outwards... "Father!—"

    It wasn't boring, but I wouldn't call it particularly outstanding either; I finished it. It's a rebirth/transmigration story without any special abilities. The plot progresses step by step, and the relationship between the male and female leads gradually develops. I quite liked the second male lead; after learning about the couple's marriage, he rushed to see the female lead. After exchanging only a few words, he mounted his horse, turned it around, and rode a few steps before stopping without looking back. "Mother, don't lose the painting. When I get old, I won't be able to paint anymore." "It won't be lost," the female lead replied. Then he rode away. The sound of hooves faded into the distance, disappearing at the end of the long street. The female lead stood at the doorway, holding the painting, staring at the empty alleyway for a long time.
