Nine Rings C71
by MarineTL — Chapter 71: Lu Ayao's Warning Of course I wasn't willing to agree to that. The man wasn't even dead yet, and even if he were, I'd still have to bring him back to give him a proper burial. But Fourth Brother wasn't joking. He was discussing it with me completely seriously, or maybe he never intended to get my consent in the first place. After all, these people all listened to him. If he told them to leave someone behind, wouldn't everyone have to obey him blindly? Seeing that I didn't say anything,…

Nine Rings C103
by MarineTL — Chapter 103: Inside the Pagoda 1 The hook at the top of the pagoda kept making that hair-raising sound. After some thought, I decided to climb up and take a look, but these five flights of stairs were quite a challenge to navigate with only one good leg. Besides, ever since I had been bound by that mycelium, I felt as though I couldn't muster any strength in my body. I gripped the ladder and hauled myself upward. It was pitch black inside the stone pagoda. As I climbed, a faint sound of chanting…

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…

Nine Rings C167
by MarineTL — Chapter 167: Wrapped Ancient Corpses As he spoke, I began to survey our surroundings. This was a new side chamber, more than twice the size of the previous one with the caisson ceiling and the tortoise, but the ceiling was relatively low. I wasn't sure why it had been designed that way. We sat in a corner of the side chamber, leaning against the wall. The walls here weren't as damp as before. I guessed we were deeper inside now, and this was likely just a simple storage area for funerary objects, as…

Nine Rings C199
by MarineTL — Chapter 199: Rest He Yu and I went back and forth, our conversation peppered with the occasional curse word, but by now, Fourth Brother must have understood the whole story. He had never cared much about material possessions, and since he had always spoiled me, he clearly wanted to avoid making a big deal out of it. Thus, Fourth Brother began to plead on my behalf. He turned to my mother and said, "Sister, based on what they're saying, things must have been extremely dangerous down there. I remember…

Chapter
Nine Rings C231
by MarineTL — Chapter 231: Original Intent "A breeding ground? So you're saying these things are multiplying inside Brother Kuba's stomach? Then wouldn't Old Qian also be..." He Yu looked at me with an indescribable expression. Chen Canghai seemed to have undergone some military training abroad and possessed some knowledge of emergency medical care. I made room for him, and he immediately knelt on one knee, gently pressing his hand against Kuba's abdomen. After feeling around for a moment, he looked up at me. I…

Chapter
Nine Rings C263
by MarineTL — Chapter 263: The Prophecy I pulled my arm free from He Yu's grip and braced myself against the narrow stone walls of the crevice, inching a few steps toward the opening. I clicked on my flashlight and swept the beam outside. Right then, I saw a figure clad entirely in white robes drifting through the air in plain sight. The figure passed no more than ten meters away from me, close enough that I could see every detail of the ornaments on his body and head with startling clarity. A cold sweat broke out…

Chapter
Nine Rings C295
by MarineTL — Chapter 295: The Parenting Manual (Part 1) I stood in the kitchen staring at the bottle warmer as it heated up. He Yu's giggles as he pulled funny faces with toys out in the courtyard were still echoing in my ears, and I suddenly felt that my recent decision had been ridiculously rash. Leaning against the counter, I counted on my fingers. It hadn't even been half a month, yet the improved spirits and daily routine I had worked so hard to rebuild had all been dealt a severe blow. My insomnia was…
