Nine Rings C229
by MarineTL — Chapter 229: Disappearance I lay flat, carefully scrutinizing the faces of those coming and going. I discovered that every single one of them was a familiar face, and the scale was even larger than the operation in Gansu. The sheer number of people involved made me feel as if I had been transported back to the Republican era. It was said that when Ye Yuzhu led his men to excavate tombs for treasure back then, it was on a similar scale. He Yu nudged me with his elbow. "Do you think we should take the…

Nine Rings C261
by MarineTL — Chapter 261: Miss Xiaoqi He Yu clearly thought this explanation was a bit far-fetched, but as the saying goes, "one does not believe in ghosts and gods until one has suffered." I was in a pathetic state—limbs weak, face pale, without a shred of strength left. The fissure was exceptionally narrow, forcing He Yu to drag me along as he crawled forward. Even with all that jostling, my eyelids kept drooping as I drifted in and out of consciousness. Eventually, I began to lose all sensation of my…

Nine Rings C293
by MarineTL — Chapter 293: The Visitor (Part 3) They tossed me into the car, likely the back seat given how spacious it felt. Two men were assigned to watch me, flanking me on either side. As soon as I sat down, I started feeling grateful that they hadn't bothered to gag me with cloth again. However, the hemp ropes were tied in tight knots; even with the right techniques, untying them would take time. I listened as the kidnappers climbed in and slammed the doors. Judging by the way the sound traveled, I estimated…

Nine Rings C80
by MarineTL — Chapter 80: Into the Thieves' Den I was a little surprised by He Yu’s conclusion. He spoke with such certainty, which probably meant he’d seen plenty of antique markets like this before. But he also said the waters in places like this ran deep, and without a local guide, you were bound to get ripped off. I gave an "oh" and lifted my leg to step into the village, but He Yu grabbed my arm. He was so nervous he stammered, "Y-you-you're just going in like that? Who knows if this is that Qiao guy's…

Nine Rings C112
by MarineTL — Chapter 112: Reinforcements from the Heavens I wondered if he was being a bit dramatic. Lu Ayao had only exchanged a few words with Tian Yuqing, so how did they end up being labeled as thick as thieves? Besides, even if he really was in league with Tian Yuqing, the man was still Tian Xiaoqi's cousin. She couldn't possibly fly into a murderous rage just because she couldn't get the answers she wanted, right? "This is a bit much, isn't it?" I forced a chuckle. Guangtou waved a hand dismissively.…

Chapter
Nine Rings C144
by MarineTL — Chapter 144: A Part of the Truth? I grew interested, but from a different perspective, so I continued to press him. "Your Lu Clan has an ancestral hall? Is it in Nanjing too? Ancestral halls should have a family tree, right? I've never seen one of those in my life. Why haven't you ever mentioned this before?" Lu Ayao didn't answer, so Fourth Brother spoke up sternly. "No matter how close you are to him, you've only known him for six months. Why are you always prying into these random things? We…

Chapter
Nine Rings C176
by MarineTL — Chapter 176: Seeking Death I watched in silence as Lu Ayao walked toward me. He ignored me at first, instead looking the White Corpse Turtle Immortal up and down where it was pinned to the wall, split in two by his Mountain-Cleaving Machete. Only after confirming it was thoroughly dead did he pull the blade free. Blood dripped all over the floor as he drew it out, bypassing me to sit in a dark corner of the passage. I sat where I was, taking a long moment to recover my wits. From the darkness about…

Chapter
Nine Rings C208
by MarineTL — Chapter 208: Leaving, But Not Quite This time, it wasn't Lu Ayao who noticed first. All three of us spotted them the moment we stepped out the door. The watchers followed from a distance, looking very much like Gan Rong's people. They made no effort to hide; on the contrary, they were remarkably blatant about it, as if being followed was simply our natural state of being. After this had gone on for two or three days, I caught He Yu's eye one morning. The three of us headed up to the second floor…
