The Magical Power Of “The Coiling Dragon” Continues

The week before.

The second volume of "The Coiling Dragon" was released.

Under Lilith's guidance, 500,000 copies of "The Coiling Dragon" were printed and sold in various bookstores, but even so, it was not enough for readers.

All kinds of pirated copies eventually emerged, and the legal department received a continuous stream of customer complaints.

In the end, the price of the book went from $19.99 to $1,999 per book.

It was simply hard to find it on the market.

The popularity of "The Coiling Dragon" exceeded everyone's expectations.

Putting aside the writing style, its smooth plot and its carefree rhythm made this book a rare treasure in this world full of traditional fantasy literature.

In a world where everything was gold, people would not think that gold was very precious. Instead, if a small piece of iron suddenly fell from the sky, it might become a treasure.

The mainstream media like Chicago Daily even interviewed the masses about "The Coiling Dragon".

"Before this, my son never knew what his goal was and never read a book until 'The Coiling Dragon' was released. He actually learned to love reading now. This is too incredible! I read 'The Coiling Dragon' too and it's truly magical. I'm really looking forward to volume three!"

"OMG, I absolutely love this book! I've read a lot of books in my life, but I've never read anything like 'The Coiling Dragon'."

"I feel this book gave me confidence. I beat up my bully today, so he won't bully me anymore."

"I got back together with my girlfriend today because of it."

"'The Coiling Dragon' is so my savior, literally. I used to be a drug addict and the only thing I wanted to do when I got home was cocaine or drink. That was all I could think about before. I would've stolen money or hurt someone just to get what I wanted. I'm just regretful that I didn't find such a good book sooner. After reading 'The Coiling Dragon', I actually succeeded in quitting. I'm already 10 days sober now, which is more than I could've ever accomplished. Now, all I can think about are the plots in 'The Coiling Dragon'. I really want to read the third volume!"

A long confession suddenly exploded on the internet.

At first, there were many people who were skeptical and checked the IP address of the person who had posted the long comment.

In the end, they verified that everything was true.

Everyone felt that it was quite unbelievable and amazing that a mere book could be so magical that it could change one's mental state.

Soon, more news like this emerged.

All these doubts were silenced when the Iowa News Channel reported, "Since the release of 'The Coiling Dragon', the crime rate in Iowa has dropped by 15 percent. Thefts, prostitution, and other crimes were significantly reduced. There are even fewer police on the streets at night. Reliable sources show that the Italian Mafia, who used to cause trouble during this time, locked themselves at home to discuss and read 'The Coiling Dragon'. They actually stopped going out to terrorize people for a book..."

The news anchor could not keep a straight face in front of the camera.

Although this was edited out the next day after the live session, a lot of people managed to record the full version.

Iowa Evening News also reported similar statistics. "With the release of 'The Coiling Dragon', the number of drug addicts in our city has plummeted by 10%. Many of them have voluntarily entered rehab. This is a truly rare phenomenon."

At this time, people recalled the ex-drug addict who posted the comment online.

They were all a little dazed.

This was a little too astonishing.

..

At this moment, Fang Yuan, who was at the party, hung up the phone in a daze and could not help but laugh. He did not expect that "The Coiling dragon" would have such an effect.

"Fang Yuan, please excuse me. I can feel an inspiration coming, so I need to shut myself in a quiet room for three days. I'm really sorry to have to leave so soon."

Stephen King quickly stood up as he said that. Fang Yuan's words earlier had given him great inspiration.

Fang Yuan smiled and nodded.

Sherry also smiled and said, "Little guy, it seems that you've just realized how much of an impact 'The Coiling Dragon' has on others."

Fang Yuan instinctively said, "My little guy's not that little. I can show it to you if you want to see it yourself."

Sherry's face turned red all the way to her neck, which was obvious because of her white skin.

She thought about that day when the two of them were in the same room, sleeping on the same bed.

When she turned around, she inevitably bumped into the wrong place. 

'It did look quite big...ah! What the f*ck am I thinking?!"

Sherry was a little distressed because she was already 30 years old and Fang Yuan was only in his early 20s.

She was the dean and he was her student. Although he was already somewhat famous, he was still a student.

'How could I have such thoughts?'

A strong sense of guilt made her shut her mouth, lower her head, and take a few deep breaths.

Then, she raised her head and said, "Mr. Fang Yuan, you now have a chance to participate in the New York Book Fair."

A writer near them heard the words "New York Book Fair" and was shocked, then started to discuss with her friends in a low voice.

"OMG, Fang Yuan really made it this time!"

"Yeah! The New York Book Fair is a world-class stage!"

"Many big shots' books are being displayed at the exhibition and they're being signed."

"Yeah, this is definitely the biggest new book signing venue in the entire United States."

"Many Nobel Prize winners would sometimes participate in this book fair too."

"Yeah, before this, I thought that Fang Yuan was just talking big about winning the Nobel Prize in Literature, but I totally believe him now!"

Everyone around her nodded in agreement.

Sherry saw everything and laughed even more. No matter what, "Candle in the Tomb" was "written" by her.

Although Fang Yuan dictated while she wrote, for some reason, having written this personally gave her an indescribable feeling. Perhaps that was because she made a contribution to this masterpiece.

It was a feeling of achieving great harmony in life.

Thinking of this, she felt elated like never before.

"Little punk, I helped you so much yet you didn't even thank me? How rude!"

Sherry went to Fang Yuan and patted his shoulder. "You should think about how to properly thank me because I worked so hard that night!"

Fang Yuan was a simple-minded person and was thinking whether he should go to Shawshank Prison to have a look, so he did not think much about Sherry's words. He thought she was talking about their co-creation that night and said, "Oh? If you don't think that night is enough, we can work together for a few more nights."
