Nine Rings C287
by MarineTL — Chapter 287: The Bandit Series - Kidnapping the Bride (Part III) The following day, Ye Yuzhu, Gan Zhao, and Qian Chuanzi officially set up a temporary base at Shulong Fortress. Using Old Monster Xiong's large mahogany table, they mapped out the basic plan for the kidnapping. However, a significant problem remained: Lady Xue's father's dilapidated ancestral home was located outside the city. When Marshal Zhao came to claim his bride, he would likely lead the procession personally, accompanied by a large…

Nine Rings C278
by MarineTL — Chapter 278: Long Life and the Birth of a Son (Part 2) Qu Zhang casually exchanged contact info with Cui Fengji and left with his painting supplies. Watching his retreating back, Cui Fengji was struck by a strange sensation that if his attention drifted for even a second, this man would vanish in an instant. It felt as though meeting him here today was a dream, one that would fade the moment he returned to the hotel. Back at the hotel, Cui Fengji took a quick hot shower and began organizing his gear…

Nine Rings C279
by MarineTL — Chapter 279: Long Life and the Birth of a Son (Part 3) Cui Fengji found it hard to imagine what kind of person Qu Zhang's friend might be, but he figured they must have been close. Otherwise, Qu Zhang wouldn't have shown such a relaxed smile. Cui Fengji began removing unnecessary items from his pack, and the bag slowly deflated. By the time he tied it back up and put it on, Qu Zhang beside him was already rolling his shoulders and steadying his breath, preparing for his second dive. "Be careful.…

Nine Rings C280
by MarineTL — Chapter 280: Long Life and the Birth of a Son (Part 4) The main burial chamber was a vast, empty expanse. Cui Fengji walked forward, sweeping his flashlight across the murals on the four walls. The colors remained strikingly vivid, making him wonder what kind of pigments could possibly resist fading for so many years. "If these were ever excavated, they'd be considered rare treasures, wouldn't they?" Cui Fengji muttered to himself as he moved closer to inspect a mural, but Qu Zhang suddenly…

Nine Rings C281
by MarineTL — Chapter 281: Long Life and the Birth of a Son (End) The scene was far too terrifying. Before Cui Fengji could squeeze the words out of his throat, Qu Zhang rolled up a sleeve and reached his hand directly into the pried-open corner of the coffin. Cui Fengji was frightened senseless by the move, sitting frozen on the spot and unable to speak. Qu Zhang used his hand to peel back the layers of silk covering the female corpse's face one by one. Her features were delicate, her lips painted with rouge, and…

Nine Rings C282
by MarineTL — Chapter 282: The Chess Player (Tian Family Side Story) Tian Yuqing stood in the courtyard, watching the small waterfall cascading down from the top of the rockery. An auntie of the household was scattering feed into the fishpond. The fat, oversized koi were round and plump, sluggishly swaying their tails back and forth as they opened their mouths to eat. After two rounds of feeding, the auntie collected her basin and returned inside. As she passed Tian Yuqing, she gave him a slight nod. Tian Yuqing…

Nine Rings C283
by MarineTL — Chapter 283: The Hidden Suicide Note I don't know who this letter should be sent to, or rather, who I even could send it to. No one wants to receive a suicide note out of the blue. At least, that is what I think. Logically, something like a suicide note should be sent to blood relatives, but the south is too far away. I'm afraid it would be intercepted before it even got there. If it were intercepted, matters would only become more complicated. So, after thinking it over, I plan to leave it in a…

Nine Rings C284
by MarineTL — Chapter 284: Madame He I was back in my hometown during the summer break after my eighth-grade year. That summer was absurdly hot, so much so that as soon as vacation started, I hid in Fourth Brother's shop to leech off the air conditioning and fan. After lying there for three hours, the constant blast of the fan left my head spinning. I eventually had to wait for Fourth Brother to come back, haul me out of the room, and toss me under the large shade canopy in the courtyard to sit. The moment of…
