Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651: Chapter 581: The Blood Clan’s Prophecy Book

Shen Li seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and suddenly said, "Xiao Tang’er, can I go with you?"

Shen Tang naturally wouldn’t refuse him.

The Beast Husbands had gone through many battles, and their mental state was not good. After Shen Tang completed spiritual soothing for them, she set out for the former location of Necro’s palace.

This place had once been territory occupied by the rebel army, now it still retained some residual forces. Shen Tang ordered Commander North to come in person to incorporate them.

The current rebel army had long lost its former arrogance. Seeing the two arrive, they respectfully knelt in salute, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

North was sharp-eyed and immediately changed his tone, respectfully stepping forward to salute, "Why has Your Majesty come personally? What orders do you have?"

Shen Tang got straight to the point, "Do you know where the Blood Clan prophecy book is?"

From the memory left by the blood beads, she learned that an ancestral Priest of the Blood Clan had left a prophecy book. Most of the prophecies in the book had come true, making it not just a prophecy but almost a documentary. Through it, one could deduce many secrets of the Blood Clan’s past.

North was shocked and after seriously contemplating, replied, "I do not know the whereabouts of the prophecy book. But if it is important, it would likely be stored in the leader’s study. Why not let me take Your Majesty there to investigate?"

"Alright, lead the way."

North then guided the two forward.

The palace built by Necro was extremely magnificent, not inferior to the Imperial Palace of the Night Glow Empire. But compared to the palaces of various countries, this place seemed empty and cold, almost uninhabited.

Since his departure, no one dared to set foot here.

The entire palace was shrouded in darkness, like a sleeping Fierce Beast, exuding a chilling aura. From a distance, it appeared like a haunted house.

Even though Shen Tang had stayed here briefly before, the palace was so large that she only dared to roam around the sleeping quarters or nearby palaces and gardens. She avoided sensitive areas like the conference hall and study to prevent arousing Necro’s suspicion.

Shen Tang searched the study but did not find the prophecy book.

Later, she used spiritual power to probe and found a hidden compartment on the wall bricks to the left of the entrance.

"There’s actually a mechanism here." Shen Tang stepped forward in surprise.

Shen Li also raised an eyebrow and stepped closer, attempting a few times before successfully triggering the mechanism.

A secret drawer popped out.

Inside it was an ancient book with yellowed pages.

This dusty book was very heavy, even after centuries and careful preservation by the Blood Clan over generations, it was still somewhat damaged.

The cover was blank, but the two of them recognized it should be the legendary prophecy book of the Blood Clan Priest.

Shen Tang started in earnest from the first page.

As soon as she opened it, she was in trouble.

Though the book recorded various events large and small, the written language was an ancient style unknown to her, likely the Blood Clan’s common ancient language, difficult for outsiders to interpret. Only major events were accompanied by hand-drawn illustrations, but after centuries of fading and damage, they were hard to discern.

"System, can you parse these ancient characters?"

The system regrettably stated that there was no relevant corpus support.

Shen Li gazed at the dense ancient script, suddenly pausing, then narrowing his long fox-like eyes in contemplation.

Shen Tang flipped page after page, nearing the book’s end, finally seeing the prophecy illustration of the Blood Clan’s demise day—

A great fire consumed everything.

The pure white halls burned black.

Ravens and bats swirled overhead, feasting on corpses and blood.

The sky was stained crimson.

Reveling plunderers took away the Blood Clan’s treasure.

However, this was not the last prophecy.

Shen Tang continued flipping forward.

Her fingertips suddenly halted.

Stopping on the second-to-last page, trembling slightly.

This was the book’s final prophecy, likewise accompanied by an illustration.
