Chapter 1334: It’s Great to Be Alive

Chapter 1334: It’s Great to Be Alive

Lin Nuo felt that everyone’s reaction was a bit too exaggerated.

Did they look as surprised as if they saw a monster?

Also, why is everyone wearing mourning clothes? Whose funeral is it? Is there going to be a feast afterward?

Will there be food for me?

Well, in an illusion, even if there was food for me, I wouldn’t be able to eat it.

But at least being able to see my loved ones in the end isn’t a bad outcome; I can consider it a relief, even if it’s just an illusion.

Wait, this shouldn’t be—I feel more real than before!

Could it be that I’m feeling human again?

What year is it tonight?

Lin Nuo looked around at the place where he had just lain—it was a coffin.

“No, this funeral can’t be for me, right? Are you all mourning for me?”

Lin Nuo jumped out of the coffin, startling the villagers, who panicked and ran away.

But as Lin Nuo’s closest relative, Xia Hanmo certainly wouldn’t back off; she slowly stepped forward to approach Lin Nuo.

“Madam Xia, be careful! Many doctors have confirmed that Lin Nuo is dead; this resurrection is no good omen.”

The villagers hurriedly advised Xia Hanmo to stay back, but she insisted on approaching.

Even if everyone wanted to avoid Lin Nuo, she wouldn’t do so because he was her child.

“Aunt, let me check him. There’s an unknown Demon Qi left on Junior Martial Brother; it might be dangerous for you.”

Liu Shuqin stepped forward; among the crowd, her medical skills were the best, so it was best she check Lin Nuo’s condition.

“Are you the vengeful spirit invading Junior Martial Brother’s body? If you are, I hope you leave him. If you refuse to go, I’ll make sure you completely vanish!”

Liu Shuqin began to prepare her spirit-dispelling techniques, ready to expel the vengeful spirit from Lin Nuo’s body.

If I can’t protect him in life, I can’t even protect his corpse in death; how can I face him as his fiancée?

“What ghostly spirit? I am Lin Nuo. So, this funeral really is for me? Am I really dead? What state am I in now? Am I a ghost? Doesn’t seem like it. Liu Shuqin, you’re the expert; come check my pulse.”

Lin Nuo said, and everyone was half-convinced. Has anyone really come back from the dead? No one has accomplished that for a long time.

Oh, no, Lin Nuo has done it before; he had died and then arrived in this new world.

Could it really be resurrection?

“Hmm, good.”

Liu Shuqin continued to prepare for spirit expulsion; she couldn’t fully believe it, so she had to be cautious.

Liu Shuqin approached Lin Nuo and began to check his pulse to determine his condition.

If a vengeful spirit had entered his body, there would be no pulse—he’d be like a walking corpse.

However, now…

“This… how do you have signs of life…?!”

Liu Shuqin was surprised. The Lin Nuo that multiple doctors had diagnosed as dead now surprisingly showed signs of life, albeit weak.

“Great, looks like I’m alive then. The Demon Star didn’t trick me.”

Lin Nuo snapped back to attention; the situation could only be explained by the Demon Star’s claim.

He still retained a bit of soul and was using that to come back to life.

No wonder he felt weak; it turned out he was mainly dead, not completely!

“So, is it really Junior Martial Brother? Junior Martial Brother, do you remember what happened in Huan Tian City?”

“The incident where we picked the rings?”

Lin Nuo immediately recalled that event; after all, it had only been a short while since he met the time-traveling old man.

“Yes, so…”

Before Liu Shuqin could finish her sentence, she directly rushed to hug Lin Nuo—she was the first person to hug him after his resurrection, the first to welcome his new life!

Seeing Liu Shuqin hug him, the other girls felt something was off and quickly rushed over, not allowing Liu Shuqin to monopolize Lin Nuo.

“Ahem… I’m going to die… don’t squeeze me…”

Lin Nuo felt his breathing becoming difficult; it was hard to believe he had just come back to life, and now he might be squished to death by them.

Now they were mindful of his state, realizing he wasn’t well, and quickly stepped back. If he was truly alive, he hadn’t eaten for days, so he must be weak.

“Get me some food, water, and Meat Floss Cake; I’m starving to death.”

Lin Nuo finally felt hunger; he had regained the feeling of being human.

“Okay, okay, Young Master, just a moment, I’ll get it for you right away!”

Ruo’er hurried down the mountain, but she was too slow; the Sword Saint directly flew her back on his sword.

“Why go back… isn’t there offerings…”

Lin Nuo noticed the offerings and wanted to grab a bite, but Su Kexin stopped him.

“Senior Martial Brother, those offerings should be consumed after the ceremony.”

“Offerings for whom?”

“It was originally to honor you, so…”

“What are you thinking? I came back to life; are you still going to honor me? Shouldn’t honoring me mean letting me eat? Now that I’m alive, you can just give it to me directly; what’s the problem?”

Lin Nuo was speechless. Why can’t you people think outside the box? Offering me food is essentially letting me eat it; since I’m alive, you should just let me eat while you pay respects!

“Ah, right, right!”

Su Kexin finally caught on; indeed, a person is alive and shouldn’t care about the process.

So they hurriedly brought the offerings before Lin Nuo, who devoured them ravenously, only to choke.

“Here.”

Mu Yiting handed him a cup of cold water, and Lin Nuo gulped it down. The icy cold water relieved all his heat.

“Uh… that’s still not enough.”

So little food wasn’t enough to satisfy Lin Nuo’s appetite, but soon Ruo’er and the Sword Saint brought over a large quantity of food; they had brought everything edible from the ancestral home, including chicken stewed by the neighbors.

“Young Master, it’s here! Take your time eating.”

“Okay.”

Another round of ravenous eating, and Lin Nuo had finally solved his hunger problem.

Ah, finally alive again.

Originally on the verge of starvation, now about to burst.

Well, at least it’s better than truly dying.

“Nuo’er, you… resurrected? They said you were dead; why is that?”

Xia Hanmo asked; no one knew the intricacies behind this, as it had deceived everyone.

“It seems my life was not meant to end yet. Well, don’t wear those funeral clothes; by the way, isn’t there a feast today?”

“Yes, that’s the custom of Ru Yu Village. But since Nuo’er has resurrected, we don’t need it anymore.”

“We’re still having the feast, keep it!”

“But this is Nuo’er’s funeral banquet; it’s inauspicious.”

“There’s nothing inauspicious about it. As long as there’s food, it’s fine.”

Lin Nuo didn’t care why there was a feast; it was rare for him to have the occasion to eat at Ru Yu Village. Shouldn’t he enjoy a good meal?

If possible, he’d sit at the children’s table.

Eating at his own funeral banquet—throughout history, no one has ever done this. If he writes an autobiography, he will definitely include this event.

Being alive is truly wonderful.
