When the golden waterfall spilled across the city like a heavenly curtain, and a faint figure shrouded by the golden light particles stood suspended within it, awe rippled through the crowd like a tidal wave.
Gasps, whispers, and exclamations broke out one after another.
"It's her… It's Fairy Bai!" shouted a middle-aged man as he fell to his knees.
"Truly a goddess descended…"
"Look at the light! Even Heaven welcomes her!"
"Fairy Bai comes down from Heaven for us!"
As more and more exclamations came from the crowd, one by one, soldiers, citizens, and refugees fell to their knees, foreheads pressed to the ground. Their fear, hope, and reverence mingled into a single, thunderous chorus of devotion.
"This believer welcomes Fairy Bai!"
"This subordinate welcomes Fairy Bai!"
Even those who had never heard her name felt their hearts shaken at this scene, as if some ancient instinct forced them to bow before a higher power.
