Ten days later, the Holy Capital.

Midnight reined in his horse outside the city gate, looking up at this mysterious place that he had only heard of for a long time but had never seen with his own eyes. This legendary place is indeed full of legendary mystery - a boxy city is not special, but above the city, there is a high-rise pavilion built of white jade suspended in the sky, reflecting the sunlight in the air, scorching, looking solemn and magnificent.

Is this the "Heavenly City" that Tian Duxing talked about?

Que Wan'er, who was sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked up at this pavilion in the sky. Xiao Yao exclaimed: "I can't imagine that there is really a pavilion in this world that can float in the air!"

Que Wan'er exclaimed: "The world is full of wonders!"

Ling Ye said: "I think that what the little old man said in Tian Duxing is half-true, but this castle in the air is true." ”

It was the female officer who escorted the three of them to the Holy Capital. At this time, she also restrained her horse and looked up, and made a horse salute on her horse, and then smiled at the three of them: "Tiancheng is the place where the Holy Maiden lives. She was originally a fairy-like character who did not eat fireworks in the world, and only in this way could the unique Heavenly City in the world be worthy of her!"

Ling Ye nodded. He looked up at the celestial city, and a rather familiar feeling floated in his heart. Isn't this Heavenly City the one he saw when he was practicing?

Why is the pavilion you see on the inside so similar to a pavilion in the sky that actually exists but he has never seen it?

Who is like whom?

Who's related to whom? Who's like whom?

Que Wan'er smiled at the female officer and said, "Sister Zhao, we also heard some legends about this place when we were over there, but we didn't believe it very much. Now that I've seen it with my own eyes, I realize that I really took everything for granted before, thinking that there would be no such thing in this world!"

The female officer's surname was Zhao Mingyue, and on the way to escort the three of them to the holy capital, because of their similar age, they chatted very speculatively with Que Wan'er, so they were called sisters. Hearing Que Wan'er's words at this moment, she smiled slightly and said, "I have also heard some things about the Empire, saying that they are extremely hostile to our Holy Capital, and they are also extremely prejudiced, saying that we are evil demons. It's just that they don't understand, and they don't want to understand because of hatred. ”

Que Wan'er smiled: "Yes, what Sister Zhao said is very reasonable. Most of the people over there really think so, especially the government! Hmph, sitting in the well and watching the sky, a leaf is blind!"

Ling Ye looked at Tiancheng and thoughtfully said, "I'm wondering, why did the Holy Maiden want me to come here, and how did she know that I was over there?"

Zhao Yue smiled and said, "Young Master Ling, I don't know about this, I can't explain it to you." However, we saints are very approachable and not condescending. Ling Gongzi, you can ask the Holy Maiden directly!"

※※※

"You're wondering, why did I know you crossed the Moon River, and why I wanted to find you here, right?"

On the Divine Moon Hall of the Heavenly City, looking at Ling Ye standing in front of her, the holy woman asked softly.

The Celestial City was suspended in the air, and Midnight came up through a hanging basket. Zhao Yue accompanied them all the way, leading the three of them all the way to the Shenyue Temple, in front of the Holy Virgin.

All the maids in the heavenly city were dressed in white, and they all seemed to know Ling Ye, smiling and bowing to him. The chair on which she sat cross-legged was just a little higher than the ground, but she wore a light veil and a white cloak that hung down to the ground, adding a bit of mystery.

I don't know why, Ling Ye was quite kind to this holy woman in her heart, so she said honestly: "Yes, Holy Maiden, I have a lot of questions about this. ”

The face under the light veil seemed to smile. The saint whispered, "Because I can perceive and know when and where you are, about whether you are happy or troublesome." ”

Ling Ye was still a little puzzled: "Why?"

The saint whispered, "Because ...... You can call me Mother!"

"Huh?!"

Rao is Ling Ye has always been calm, and he can't help but be surprised at this moment.

Que Wan'er and Xiao Yao also looked at each other. Zhao Yue, who was standing on the side, was even more surprised, bowed down and said, "Holy Maiden......

The saint seemed to smile again, and said softly, "Do you think that a person like me will not become a mother?"

Zhao Yue bowed and said, "My subordinates don't dare!"

The saint said slowly: "That's just your misunderstanding, using ordinary people's thoughts to measure me." In fact, although Ling Ye can be said to be my son, he was not born like ordinary people. ”

"Then how did I get here?" Ling Ye asked strangely.

The saint slowly stretched out a hand. Her hands were very white, as white as the white jade that had built the Heavenly City. The palm of this white and flawless hand is upward, and a small white flower appears between the palms of the hands for no apparent reason. The florets grow larger and larger at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally cover the palms of the hand, becoming a bowl-sized white flower.

The saint whispered, "That's how you came. When I'm idle, I suddenly want to make a person, and that's how I make you. ”

Ling Ye was still a little dumbfounded, and felt unacceptable: "You made me, but why...... I remember I used to hunt with my dad for a living!"

The saint said: "Your father, in fact, he is not your father, but an attendant military attache in the Holy Capital, who belongs to the Flame Department. He secretly took you away from me. Since he has been raising you, it is not impossible for you to call him Daddy. ”

Ling Ye still felt very confused: "I don't understand!"

The saint smiled faintly: "Although I am a saint, among the men in the holy capital, there are still some people who are attracted to me, and some of them have ideas beyond me. Ling Lie of the Flame Department, that is, your father, thought that I had really given birth to a son, and he was very sad, so he secretly took you away from me, not only to kill you secretly, but also to keep the people of the Holy Capital from being disappointed in me. He's barely loyal to him, and I don't blame him. ”

Midnight: "......"

It dawned on him...... No wonder sometimes dad looks weird!

The saint said softly, "But he doesn't know that you are the one I created, using a substance and divine power called aether. To put it simply, your constitution is extremely special, and if you get too close to you, you will be affected by the aether, and you will get sick or even die. Your Daddy...... In the end, he couldn't resist the influence of the aether and gradually went crazy. I sent someone to summon him back to the Holy Capital, but I couldn't cure him, and he died two months ago. ”

Midnight: "......"

I came down the mountain to find my father, and now it's okay, my father, who worked so hard to find, is gone......
