Nine Rings C83
by MarineTL — Chapter 83: Making Enemies Qiao Sangui was urging me, but I was surprisingly calm. I didn’t agree right away. First of all, it was strange that he hadn’t been the least bit surprised by my arrival. That alone was suspicious. He also knew my grandfather and was clearly aware that I was the one who leaked the information about the Jade Casket in Yunnan. So I had a bold guess: Qiao Sangui had anticipated my arrival from the moment I released the news about the casket. Not only that, but with his wide…

Nine Rings C30
by MarineTL — Chapter 30: Look Up and See All Beings He Yu sat down by the tomb wall, brushing dirt off his pants. “I told you this was pointless. If you’re going to leave a message, at least make it clear. Writing something cryptic like this is worse than writing nothing at all.” I was still mulling over the meaning of “Look up and see all beings.” The phrase itself wasn’t hard to translate, but using it in this context felt bizarre. I thought about it for a long time but couldn’t make sense of it, so I…

Nine Rings C62
by MarineTL — Chapter 62: A Counterfeit Relic As soon as she finished speaking, I realized something was off. A logical person always has a focus when they speak, and Yu Jingzi was undoubtedly that type. She had said a lot, but every point she made stuck clearly in my mind. Also, this was the first time I’d ever heard of something called the "Wood-Returning Stone." Her emphasis leaned heavily toward that, unlike Hou Jinshan, who had clearly focused more on the Ghost Market Map itself. Why the difference? I was…

Nine Rings C94
by MarineTL — Chapter 94: Infant Corpse I was at the back of the group. Just one glance at He Yu’s reaction after seeing what was inside the coffin, and I knew something was seriously wrong. He had spent a full twenty minutes earlier with a waterlogged corpse without so much as flinching, but now he was sucking in a sharp breath. That told me whatever was in this coffin might be beyond what I could handle. But I had already walked over. The moment I peeked inside, my stomach turned violently. What lay in the…

Chapter
Nine Rings C09
by MarineTL — Chapter 9: Five Masters Our family doesn't have any genealogical records. The origins of my grandfather's craft have only been passed down orally through generations. According to my grandfather, our ancestors were once part of an immense family, as prosperous as the Ningguo Mansion in "Dream of the Red Chamber" at its peak. The exact years of these past events are now impossible to verify. Moreover, it seems their work was somewhat related to imperial tombs. They needed not only to master the I Ching…

Nine Rings C41
by MarineTL — Chapter 41: Another Version I thought for a moment, then quickly steered the conversation back. “Senior, from what you just said, does that mean you know the origin of this casket?” The old man coughed a few times, then suddenly lowered his voice. “It’s a long story. As of now, I’d say no more than three people in all of China know the true origin of this Nine-Ring Jade Casket. I only caught wind of it because of my previous line of work. Are you sure you want to hear it?” I was stunned. If…

Nine Rings C73
by MarineTL — Chapter 73: The False Miracle The space inside the stone gate was vast, easily the size of two or three football fields. I couldn’t say for certain whether this was a side chamber or the main tomb chamber, but judging by its sheer scale, I decided to call it the Tomb Chamber for now. Beneath my feet lay piles of golden artifacts and gleaming jewels. Five bronze pillars stood in five different directions, their bases buried beneath golden sand. These pillars were crafted from the same material and…

Nine Rings C105
by MarineTL — Chapter 105: Inside the Pagoda 3 Mentioning this, we all fell into a collective silence. He Yu shot me several meaningful looks, and as we stared at each other, I knew we both had plenty of theories. However, since we had tacitly agreed that Tian Xiaoqi was an outsider, we could not voice those thoughts right now. Tian Xiaoqi spoke with such sincerity that I decided to believe her for the time being. As Tian Xiao's biological grandson, Tian Yuqing had been sent abroad by his grandfather before he…
