Ch. 318 - An Miaoyi
The Divine City at night was not quiet. There were people in every street and ancient alley, and melodious music flowed from the halls and palaces. Along the grand avenue, the endless palaces gleamed with gold and jade, lights bright everywhere, brilliance flashing in all directions. The songs were ethereal, drifting and enchanting, stirring the heart and making people lose themselves in it. The Celestial City was a city that never slept, filled with divine radiance, auspicious glow bursting everywhere, like a dreamlike realm.
Ye Fan said, “In this Celestial City, half the people here are cultivators. Why is it so extravagant? It doesn’t look like sacred land, it looks like a city of indulgence.”
Blackwater smiled and said, “Cultivators are still human, not emotionless immortals. They have the seven emotions and six desires. This is a city of cultivators.”
Starlight fell, and the moonlight was like water. The entire Celestial City was shrouded in a sacred veil, beautiful beyond words, the sound of songs and zithers softly resonating through the night.
