2166 Secret of the Dead, Volume 5, Sinking Song! The book was dead. Even without being activated, it could affect Begin Lady, who had already set its spirit fire alight. Just what was this book? Begin Lady did not use its body to touch the purple and gray-bound tome. Instead, it used a stream of water to deliver the book to Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan instinctively used True Data to check on the book. The instant that he found out that the book was called ‘Secret of the Dead, Volume 5, Sinking Song’, the book sensed the fresh vitality of a living creature and entered Lin Yuan’s body. At that moment, just like when he had awakened Morbius back in Xia Region, the darkness captured Lin Yuan and he lost consciousness. … The monsoon season in the Great Lush Federation lasted from April to May. Hurricanes swept through Clean Brahma City every one or two weeks. No matter how efficient the water drainage system was in Clean Brahma City, the streets were rarely dry during this period. But today, when the citizens of Clean Brahma City woke up, they realized with shock that the sun was hanging proudly in the cloudless sky. Many residents in Clean Brahma City started to take pictures of this unusual but welcome weather. The Great Lush Federation had undergone a big change in the past two weeks. Usually, even the smallest of changes affected ordinary people the most. But this change did not affect ordinary people at all. Rather, Jin Qianxun had invested many funds into repairing the city. This greatly lifted the standards of living for the citizens of Clean Brahma City. It was not just the capital city that was undergoing repairs but the smaller towns as well. Jin Qianxun used this method to obtain a large wave of support from the citizens. In two weeks, Jin Qianxun’s organization of affairs had smoothened into a well-oiled machine, and he could sit soundly on the throne of the Great Lush Federation. However, Jin Qianxun did not feel relaxed in the slightest. In fact, he had been steeped in worry for the past two weeks. Lin Yuan had gone to collect the Truth Association’s resources after receiving notice from Jin Qianxun. Yet, he had ended up losing consciousness and had yet to open his eyes. Jin Qianxun was worried about the condition of Lin Yuan’s body but also about whether he could continue to occupy the throne without Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan’s comatose state left Jin Qianxun no different from a blade of grass floating in the wind. Jin Qianxun’s main concern was for himself, but this was not the case for Su Yiren, Liu Jie, and Begin Lady. At that moment, in one of the rooms in the Great Lush Federation’s imperial court, a man and two women were staring at a young man sleeping on the bed with distress written all over their faces. The young man’s shadow was moving erratically. When Su Yiren noticed the movement of the shadow, she said, “Shadow, if you’re worried about Lin Yuan, come out and watch him with us.” She turned to Liu Jie and said, “Big Brother Liu, it won’t do you any good to sit here forever. We don’t know when Lin Yuan is going to wake up. You haven’t rested in 15 days and are only making do with your spiritual power now. This might impact your brain. Lin Yuan won’t want to see you like this when he wakes up.” When Liu Jie heard what Su Yiren said, he shook his head austerely Begin Lady had told him about what had happened to Lin Yuan inside the tower. Liu Jie pinned all the blame onto himself. If only he had gone with Lin Yuan, he might have been able to shield him and prevent that strange book from entering Lin Yuan’s body. However, the one feeling the most self-reproachful was not Liu Jie. Begin Lady was feeling more blame than Liu Jie did. It was the one who had brought the strange book to Lin Yuan. When Liu Jie did not respond, Begin Lady grabbed his hand and pointed at Lin Yuan, saying, “This bed is three-meters-wide. Go and lie down there to get some rest. That way, you won’t have to leave Lin Yuan’s side. He isn’t in critical condition, and his signs of life haven’t diminished in the slightest. “This is why I told Jin Qianxun to put a lockdown on the news. Not even Weng Queji knows that Lin Yuan is in a coma. If Lin Yuan doesn’t wake up soon, we will have to take him out of the Great Lush Federation!” Su Yiren looked at Begin Lady. Liu Jie had seen Begin Lady, but Su Yiren had not. But once Begin Lady dashed out of Fifth Page Truth’s tower with Lin Yuan, she immediately placed it as an expert that was protecting Lin Yuan. Su Yiren nodded when it heard what Begin Lady said. If Lin Yuan did not wake up soon, the news should no longer be sealed. Begin Lady had carefully examined Lin Yuan 15 days ago but could not find out the reason behind Lin Yuan’s coma. Begin Lady had heard Lin Yuan say before that the Moon Empress was a Class 6 Creation Master. If Lin Yuan did not wake up soon, Begin Lady would seek Lin Yuan’s master out and let her study Lin Yuan’s condition. Just as Begin Lady was about to speak, it sensed Lin Yuan’s breathing had changed. Delight immediately bloomed on its face, and its gaze locked on Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan’s eyelashes started to flutter. Begin Lady knew that Lin Yuan was finally about to wake up! Su Yiren and Liu Jie were not strong enough to sense the change in Lin Yuan’s breathing. But both of their minds were fully focused on Lin Yuan and had noticed the movement in his eyelashes. Liu Jie and Su Yiren immediately jumped to their feet with joy. When Lin Yuan groggily opened his eyes, he was instantly starving. It was as though he desperately needed to replenish his blood sugar. Lin Yuan could sense how badly his body was craving nutrients. The cause of all this was the strange book that had taken root in the divine kingdom. It was the book that was pushing his desire for replenishment. All of the nutrients in Lin Yuan’s body had been sucked dry by the book known as ‘Secret of the Dead, Volume 5, Sinking Song’. Liu Jie, Su Yiren, and Begin Lady were waiting for Lin Yuan to fully open his eyes so they could check on his condition. When Lin Yuan finally opened his eyes, he said feebly, “Get me something to eat.” Liu Jie immediately brought out food from his Diamond fey storage box and piled them on the table next to the bed so Lin Yuan could pick what he wanted himself.
