Chapter 2030: The Mysteriously Appearing City

Sister, could this really be the legendary Wuji Xiancheng? Wow, it truly lives up to its reputation—look, this place is extraordinarily bustling and splendid as brocade.

The young man's face was full of excitement, his eyes shining as he stared at the town before him that looked prosperous yet slightly shabby, so excited he almost started jumping for joy.

The girl standing aside, seeing this, gave him a harsh look, speechless, her delicate brows furrowed, her sharp gaze scanning up and down the mysterious town before her.

You should know, this is one of the twenty-four famed immortal cities on the outskirts of the Wuji Shanmai—namely, Wuji Xiancheng.

Moreover, it is the only city within a radius of ten thousand li, naturally becoming a gathering place where countless human cultivators flock.

Almost everyone who ventures into the Wuji Shanmai for adventure, treasure hunting, or training chooses to first come to Wuji Xiancheng to rest awhile, adjust their condition, so they can face the upcoming unknown challenges and opportunities in the best shape.

Consequently, Wuji Xiancheng is bustling day and night with carriages and horses, its prosperity simply beyond imagination.

There are even rumors that even in the dead of night, the city remains brightly lit, as bright as day, seemingly never tiring.

Moreover, the city's shops are filled with a dazzling variety of goods, overwhelming the eyes; auctions of all sizes constantly appear, rare treasures from time to time surface, attracting countless gazes and attention.

Yet at this moment, gazing at the city before her, the girl felt a doubt arise unbidden in her heart: …Could this really be the renowned Wuji Xiancheng?

Why does she constantly feel that something is off? Although she has never been here before, that strange feeling lingers in her heart, impossible to shake.

The energetic young man, completely unaware of his sister's deep-seated doubts, happily believed that he and his sister had finally reached the legendary Wuji Xiancheng.

Unable to contain his excitement, he tightly grasped his sister's hand and eagerly stepped toward the city.

However, as they drew nearer to the mysterious city, the girl's confusion grew stronger and stronger.

You should know, this brother and sister are both of the xian clan, possessing a deep understanding of various extraordinary phenomena and spells.

Therefore, as they approached, it was easy to see that the city's buildings were not made of ordinary construction materials, but were formed from countless precious magical artifacts and from a spirit city imbued with powerful Línglì.

Moreover, what surprised the girl even more was that this so-called Wuji Xiancheng had not even a single city wall.

It gives the impression that someone simply found an empty plot of land and hastily threw together this city.

Nevertheless, despite the many doubts, upon truly entering the city, they could not deny that it was indeed extraordinarily bustling, with crowds flowing like a woven tapestry.

Furthermore, the people coming and going in the city were clearly not ordinary folk; they were far beyond common mortals.

At this moment, the girl fell into thought: within a radius of ten thousand li, she had never heard of any other human settlement besides Wuji Xiancheng.

Then, if what lies before them is not the true Wuji Xiancheng, what place could this be?

Thinking this, the girl suddenly felt a waver in her earlier judgment, even losing some confidence.

After all, if this is not Wuji Xiancheng, it is hard to imagine what else it could be.

Sister, look, there are so many people here, and I can't even see through their cultivation levels.

Sister...................

Be quiet.

After entering the city, surprisingly, they encountered no interrogation along the way.

Indeed, not even a common defensive feature like a city wall exists, let alone the so-called city guards.

The young man was unusually excited, chattering away like a machine gun.

He was full of curiosity and freshness about everything around him, like a bird just released from its cage.

However, the girl gradually grew impatient.

She finally couldn't help but softly scold him.

Don't make noise.

Hearing that, the young man instantly became as dejected as a frost‑hit eggplant.

Nevertheless, he obediently shut his mouth, but his bright big eyes kept darting around, curiously surveying the unfamiliar place.

At the same time, other passersby in the city noticed the sibling pair.

They cast strange glances, looked them up and down, then quickly looked away and went back to their own business.

Regarding the siblings' sudden appearance, these people might have felt a hint of doubt, but it was not strong and soon vanished without a trace.

After all, in such a large city, strangers of all kinds come and go every day.

Thus, the brother and sister walked a long stretch through the city.

Walking on, the girl began to notice something amiss—not a single shop could be seen in the city.

You should know, under normal circumstances a city always has various shops, stalls, and other commercial venues.

Here, aside from ordinary residential buildings on either side of the streets, there is not a trace of commercial activity to be found.

The more she thought about it, the more puzzling it seemed, so the girl stopped in her tracks—just then, Ma Lin walked toward her from the opposite direction.

The girl quickly stepped forward, slightly bowed to Ma Lin, and politely asked.

Excuse me, senior, I would like to ask—is this place Wuji Xiancheng?

Her attitude was very respectful and humble, hoping to get an accurate answer from him.

Who would have thought, when faced with the girl's question, Ma Lin wore a blank expression, completely clueless, blinking his eyes as he countered.

Are you looking for Wuji Xiancheng?

Seeing Ma Lin's strange demeanor, the girl silently nodded, feeling as if she already had the answer.

As for the young man, he still hadn't noticed, and he spoke in a sturdy, naive way.

Sister, what nonsense are you spouting? Outside the Wuji Shanmai there is only this one city, Wuji Xiancheng—if this isn't it, what else could it be?

Huh???

Upon hearing that, Ma Lin became even more bewildered, remaining silent for a while before slowly speaking.

You've got it wrong—Wuji Xiancheng is still another ten thousand li to the west.

How could one searching for Wuji Xiancheng end up here? As soon as he said that, the young man froze on the spot, while the girl let out a sigh of relief.

She had guessed right—this really isn't Wuji Xiancheng, but now the question arises: what place is this?

How could a city suddenly appear out there beyond the Wuji Shanmai? That's not right.
