Nine Rings C58
by MarineTL — Chapter 58: Sudden Upheaval I hadn’t even finished speaking when Hou Jinshan burst out laughing. "Kid, trying to trick me again? This time, I’m not falling for it." My thoughts were much clearer now. Earlier, I’d been influenced by He Yu, but ever since we entered the cave this time, I’d been paying close attention to the passage of time. Exactly two hours had passed from the moment we started diving until now. I figured it was time to stop and sort out my thoughts. Li Wanchou had…

Nine Rings C59
by MarineTL — Chapter 59: Man Eats Man My limbs were pinned down, leaving me unable to move. Deep down, I had already sensed something like this might happen, but my reaction was far too slow. If it had been Tian Yuqing in my place, he would have had a strategy prepared and a way to handle it ahead of time. At the very least, he wouldn't have ended up at such a severe disadvantage. To say I was a rare clever person among the juniors of the Five Masters was giving me way too much credit. Calling me the most…

Nine Rings C60
by MarineTL — Chapter 60: Suffocation This covered bridge probably doesn’t have many traps, but that’s just my preliminary guess. After all, I’m not the one who built these ruins. Someone capable of embedding iron chains into the bases of underwater stone statues is definitely no ordinary craftsman. If he insisted on rigging the bridge with something, I’d just have to accept my fate. Besides, it’s not as if my mouth is actually blessed with divine foresight. I raised my hand and gave Hou Jinshan a…

Nine Rings C61
by MarineTL — Chapter 61: Ghost Paintings and the Ghost Ruins "Get some rest and prepare to move out again." "This cave must have been flooded. Everything's damp. What a damn mess." "Keep your voice down. Don’t let Boss Yu hear you." The rustling voices stirred me from sleep. The stone beneath me was hard enough to bruise bone, and there was still water in my lungs I hadn’t completely coughed out. I sat up and hacked a few times, the world slowly coming into focus. I saw a fire burning nearby, a blanket…

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 speaking, and Yujingzi 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 had 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? I was deeply puzzled.…

Nine Rings C51
by MarineTL — Chapter 51: Muddy Waters I never expected to see Yu Jingzi under these circumstances. Her sudden appearance caught me completely off guard. I hid behind Xiao Wu, sneaking glances at her group taking shelter from the rain; there were a lot of them, at least a dozen. Four Hummers were parked outside the restaurant. Yu Jingzi was dressed lightly, wearing a black athletic jacket over a camisole that dipped low across her chest. She walked in, found a seat, and began ordering food with her…

Nine Rings C52
by MarineTL — Chapter 52: Gan Ji’s Risky Move Hou Jinshan had made it pretty clear that he had no intention of letting me go any further. But I've always had a strong rebellious streak and hated playing by the rules. The more flatly he tried to keep me out, the more determined I became to stick with the team and keep moving forward. We got back in the car. The rain had stopped, and the sun broke through quickly, causing the temperature to spike. One by one, we started peeling off our jackets. The mood in the car…

Chapter
Nine Rings C53
by MarineTL — Chapter 53: Li Wanchou’s Revenge From Xiao Wu’s brief description, I gathered that the bottom of the pool still had a stone-paved shore, though it was directly beneath us, completely hidden by the overhanging rocks. But beyond the stone shore, Xiao Wu also said that at the far end of the pool, beneath the waterfall, there seemed to be something else. Once Xiao Wu finished his brief description, Hou Jinshan’s eyes gleamed with greed. He frantically rummaged through his bag, pulled out a large…
