      Nine Rings C56

      Nine Rings C56 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 56: A Misstep in the Dark I had too many questions, but there was no time to dwell on them. I quickly stepped onto the stone platform and shouted, “Hey! Over here! Xiao Wu! I’m right here!” Xiao Wu heard my voice and froze for a second in the water. He quickly pulled off his diving mask, and his flashlight swung in my direction. In an instant, all six of them saw me. Hou Jinshan recoiled in shock, then recovered and started cursing from the water. “You little bastard! What the…

      Nine Rings C35

      Nine Rings C35 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 35: The Suspended Woman We continued climbing upward. After another twenty meters, I could just make out the dome of the Side Chamber from my position. I clenched the flashlight between my teeth and swept the beam upward—what I saw made my heart jolt. A corpse was hanging in midair, swaying in the breeze. And it seemed the higher we went, the more of them there were. That was definitely not a good sign. I stopped climbing. He Yu saw it too and halted beside me. Lu A’yao swept his flashlight…

      Nine Rings C67

      Nine Rings C67 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 67: Memory Distortion? After changing the bandages and doing a quick rewrap, we all fell into silence. When Hou Jinshan woke up, he immediately started fawning over Lu A’yao, babbling nonsense non-stop. Lu A’yao didn’t respond to a single word, but that didn’t stop Hou Jinshan from chattering away like he was on fire. I kept quiet simply because I didn’t want to deal with him. I also didn’t want him overhearing too much of our conversation. As for Lu A’yao, I figured he had…

      Nine Rings C46

      Nine Rings C46 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 46: The Recorder As I was opening it, I reached into the file envelope and felt around. There was a noticeable bulge inside—probably photos or something similar. I took a utility knife and sliced the envelope open, then turned it upside down. Several photographs slid out immediately and landed in my hands. I only caught a glimpse before I was so startled I threw the envelope away. My heart began pounding wildly. It’s hard to describe exactly what was in the photos. Even though I only glanced…

      Nine Rings C78

      Nine Rings C78 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 78: 4341951009 After talking for quite a while, He Yu finally gave in. He asked, “You want to investigate the Five Masters? That’s not going to be easy. Especially Tian Yuqing and Chen Si, those two are the trickiest of the bunch. If they team up to come after you, you won’t even know how you died. Who do you plan to ask for help?” That question hit right at my blind spot. When it came to industry insiders and backdoor dealings, I was completely out of my depth. Everyone always said…

      Nine Rings C25

      Nine Rings C25 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 25: A Twenty-Six-Year-Old Minor I smacked He Yu hard on the shoulder. “Don’t just stand there! Move!” The slap snapped him out of it. The two of us crouched low, eyes on the ceiling as we hurriedly backed toward the Coffin and Outer Coffin. We’d barely taken two steps when a beam of flashlight flickered—and in that brief flash, I saw it. A pale corpse clinging to the rock wall, gliding sideways like a spider. “Shit! Is that a Corpse Reanimation?” He Yu clearly saw it too. He…

      Nine Rings C57

      Nine Rings C57 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 57: First Brush with Death The ringing in my ears vanished a split second before the cloud of scales descended. All I could hear was the roar of water, and from the corner of my eye, I saw Li Wanchou, his bloodied eyes shut tight, breaking the surface of the lake. He must have taken me for his last hope of survival. He grabbed onto me in desperation, probably thinking I could pull him up to the stone path. What he didn’t expect was how terrible my balance was. His sudden yank caught me…

      Nine Rings C36

      Nine Rings C36 Cover
      by MarineTL Chapter 36: Jumping into Quicksand I hurriedly bent my knees, trying to crouch on the eaves like Lu A'yao, but the moment I looked down, all I saw was a pitch-black abyss. My legs instantly gave out, and I ended up kneeling on the ledge instead. But I didn’t care about looking ridiculous anymore—I started scanning the darkness, searching for He Yu. Lu A'yao crouched beside me for about two minutes before decisively standing up. Grabbing onto an iron chain, he said, “I’m going down to take a…
