Nine Rings C141
by MarineTL — Chapter 141: Deep Coma After hanging up the phone, I headed straight for the location Lu Ayao had given me. At the same time, a faint, ominous premonition stirred in my heart because the place he described was an intersection. By the time I arrived, the scene was already a chaotic mess. The broad lanes were almost completely covered in splatters of blood. Aside from the blood and unrecognizable fragments of organs, there were fallen car parts. The brake marks from the dump truck stretched at least a…

Nine Rings C140
by MarineTL — Chapter 140: Special Savings I suddenly grew excited, the cold blood in my veins seemingly boiling in that instant. I lowered my phone and shone the light up and down the door again, taking a silent, deep breath. My heart was a mix of trepidation and excitement. Had I really found the right place? The room number was 434. Could this be the official site where that secret project from 1951 began? If so, did this prove that the 1951 project and the current Nine Rings Project were actually one and the…

Nine Rings C139
by MarineTL — Chapter 139: Number 434 Liang Zicheng lay on the ground, cowering and begging for mercy. As soon as I moved the stick away, he suddenly scrambled up and tried to slip away. I reached out, grabbed him by the collar, and hauled him right back. "Look, man, I was really wrong! I'll definitely pay you back once we get back, okay? Just let me go home!" I didn't actually care much about the money he made from reselling my two paintings. Liang Zicheng's family had always been poor, so to win scholarships,…

Nine Rings C138
by MarineTL — Chapter 138: 18 North Bookstore Street Bookstore Street is a relatively bustling commercial district in Kaifeng's old city. I'm not someone who likes going out; in modern terms, I'm a bit of a homebody. I prefer staying in my room tinkering with things. Coming to Kaifeng was purely for school, and I don't like wandering around aimlessly. So, I've never been to this North Bookstore Street on the address and don't know anything about it. I had no classes in the afternoon, so I put on my glasses and…

Nine Rings C137
by MarineTL — Chapter 137: Selling a Painting The next day we caught a bus back to Kaifeng. A couple of days later, He Yu packed his bags and went back to his hometown. I was so busy with the start of the semester that my feet barely touched the ground. At first, He Yu and I worried that Lu Ayao would be bored staying by himself, but it turned out we were overthinking it. Lu Ayao spent all day in his room tinkering with those diagrams of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. He was so focused that if I didn't…

Chapter
Nine Rings C136
by MarineTL — Chapter 136: A Difficult Hurdle I froze for a moment. Once I processed what he said, I wanted to explode and start cursing right then and there. But He Yu knew me well. Seeing that things were about to go south, he stepped in before I could and grabbed my arm firmly. His pull caused the anger that had just surged to the top of my head to vanish instantly. Instead, I began to seriously reconsider the possibility of what Bai Shenxian had said. My grandfather was the only one among the Five Masters who…

Chapter
Nine Rings C135
by MarineTL — Chapter 135: Bazi He Yu gave me a nudge and told me to pay. I was reluctant because I felt in my heart that this guy was nothing but a scammer. He Yu pulled me to the side and whispered in my ear: "Don't be so stubborn. Since Old Lu brought us here, there's no way he got the wrong guy. What's a few cheap rings compared to the poison in Old Lu's system? Who knows if that corpse poison will flare up later and threaten his life? Let me just grit my teeth and get this over with. If this guy's scamming…

Chapter
Nine Rings C134
by MarineTL — Chapter 134: The Profiteering Divine Doctor Hearing He Yu talk with such certainty made it sound genuinely bizarre, but regardless, hearsay is never as convincing as seeing something with your own eyes. This only made me more determined to make the trip to Luoyang. We sat for a while longer before heading off to sleep. Those two days on the train were pretty boring. At first, He Yu and I were still in the mood to fool around, but eventually, we ate so much instant ramen we wanted to throw up. By the…
