Nine Rings C105
by MarineTL — Chapter 105: Inside the Pagoda 3 Mentioning this, we all fell into a collective silence. He Yu shot me several meaningful looks, and as we stared at each other, I knew we both had plenty of theories. However, since we had tacitly agreed that Tian Xiaoqi was an outsider, we could not voice those thoughts right now. Tian Xiaoqi spoke with such sincerity that I decided to believe her for the time being. As Tian Xiao's biological grandson, Tian Yuqing had been sent abroad by his grandfather before he…

Nine Rings C84
by MarineTL — Chapter 84: Han Jian’s Request Han Jian settled He Yu into the inner room to rest, and the two of us sat in silence on the living room couch. He brewed a cup of tea using a few small tea leaves, handed it to me, and then we just stared at each other. I really didn’t feel like talking, nor did I know what to say. The minor clash with Lu A’yao had already sunk my mood to rock bottom. I couldn’t understand how Han Jian and Lu A’yao had ended up teaming up, and from the looks of it, they clearly…

Nine Rings C95
by MarineTL — Chapter 95: A Strange Message I lunged forward too quickly, and both my hands just barely managed to grab one of Chen Canghai’s. After everything we’d been through, my upper body strength had clearly improved a lot. But I was panicking. With so many loose stones already falling from the edge, it was obvious that the rock here was unstable and brittle. If I pulled too slowly, the next ones to fall could be the two of us. I was desperate to haul Chen Canghai up. So I shouted at him, “Give me your…

Nine Rings C74
by MarineTL — Chapter 74: Breaking Free No one knows when this iron chain bridge was built. Every step made it tremble violently. I gripped the chains on either side, moving with extreme caution, afraid that even the slightest extra movement might snap the fragile links and send the whole thing collapsing. As I held onto the chains and walked forward, I called out Fourth Brother’s name loudly. But most of my shouts echoed into silence. The more silence I got, the slower I moved. Ten minutes later, I found myself…

Nine Rings C106
by MarineTL — Chapter 106: Blowing up the Buddha The Soul-Suppressing Pagoda. I understood it as a stone tower meant for suppressing and performing the Transcendence Ritual for the souls of the dead. Lu A'yao told me that the incantations chiseled into the pagoda were actually the text of the Diamond Sutra. Logically, the chanting I heard was likely meant for lonely spirits. "What do you mean? Why can't any of you hear it, but I can?" I protested. I wondered if the Bodhisattva thought my soul was impure and wanted…

Nine Rings C85
by MarineTL — Chapter 85: Blackmail "What kind of help?" I asked. Han Jian said, "I'm leaving tomorrow, taking a boat to find that tower. I want you to come with me. We'll share information, and if there's really something there, we split whatever we find fifty-fifty. How about it?" I stared at him and smiled. "Why? Just because of a rubbing manuscript that may or may not matter, and a former owner who vanished into thin air? I don't buy it. I don’t believe that’s enough to lure you in. Uncle Han, your excuse…

Chapter
Nine Rings C96
by MarineTL — Chapter 96: Leaping Across the Stone Pillars While I had been zoning out for just a moment, Chen Canghai had already leapt onto a stone pillar not far ahead. I slowly got to my feet, trying to gauge the distance between me and that pillar. No matter what, I needed a bit of mental prep before jumping. Thankfully, it wasn’t too far. I didn’t dare hesitate. Clamping the flashlight between my teeth, I shut my eyes and jumped like a toad. I landed with both hands on the stone, hitting it with a dull…

Chapter
Nine Rings C75
by MarineTL — Chapter 75: Xiao Wu’s Account When I woke up, the first thing I heard was the noisy chatter of some older folks nearby. They were speaking in dialect, and I couldn’t understand a single word. The bed beneath me was soft, and I wanted to stay curled up a bit longer. But sunlight streaming through the window stabbed at my eyes, making it nearly impossible to keep them open. I squinted and struggled to sit up, only to see Xiao Wu cheerfully pulling open the curtains. He dragged over a metal stool and…
