Chapter 93: The Burial Coffin Later, the two of us chatted some more, and I realized that He Yu had an extremely stereotyped view of the Lu family. It was so intense that I started to wonder if someone from a Lu family branch had offended his family in the past. Otherwise, where would all that resentment come from? Chen Canghai turned out to be pretty skilled at wilderness survival. I’d been too caught up in conversation to notice earlier, but now I realized the pile of coffin boards we’d used to…-

Chapter 92: The One Who Carved the Words Liu Sanshui was a man shrouded in mystery. He was the youngest among the Five Masters of his generation, the first to die, but also the first Liu family member to rise to prominence. It's no exaggeration to say that the Liu family's vast client base today was built largely thanks to him. Of all the people my grandfather disliked dealing with, Liu Sanshui topped the list. I’d heard bits and pieces about his early years—how he once joined a group of tomb…

Chapter 91: Breaking Free This wasn’t the first time I’d been bitten by a snake. When I was a kid, I got too caught up playing and wrestling in the grass with some friends. Just my luck, I landed right on a snake that had been lounging in the shade. I must’ve disturbed its nap, because it twisted its neck and sank its fangs into me. Thankfully, it wasn’t venomous, but it still left me miserable for quite a while. The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became. In the end, it was just…

Chapter 90 - A Rash Decision The water below was pitch-black, and the nighttime chill cut straight to the bone. Honestly, if it had been daytime, I probably wouldn’t have jumped into the river so easily. As someone from the Central Plains, I’d grown up learning about the Yellow River. So I knew all too well that the most dangerous things in rivers weren’t the visible currents, but the hidden undertows and whirlpools. Those could silently drag even the strongest swimmers to their deaths. That was…

Chapter 89: Snake Tide The two of us stood in front of the rear cargo hatch and exchanged a glance with He Yu. I gave him a nod, and he stepped forward and kicked the door open with a loud bang. The space where the diving gear—once covered with waterproof tarps—should have been was now completely empty. I let out a sharp breath of relief. He Yu came over and clapped me on the shoulder. "See? I told you, you were overthinking it. They must’ve found something, maybe even struck gold. Saw us too…

Chapter 266: He Yu There was no time to get Tian Xiaoqi onto my back. He Yu simply grabbed me and hauled me up from the ground. I was sobbing so hard I was hyperventilating, and I followed his instructions in a daze. He Yu supported me from below, pushing me up first. I gripped the rocks above the crevice and began to pull myself upward. The stones I touched were still vibrating slightly; one moment of inattention and a rock would split in two, slipping from my grasp and plummeting into the…

Chapter 265: My Fourth Brother Take note, this person tumbled in, he didn't crawl. The first thing I noticed wasn't actually the man himself, but the black rope attached to him. This type of rope has a steel core, giving it incredible resilience. The only people I could think of who would use such professional gear were Chen Si and his crew. "Fourth Brother!" I cried out instinctively the moment I recognized the figure on the ground. I rushed over to help Chen Si up, while He Yu, hearing my shout,…

Chapter 264: Adding Insult to Injury We retreated from the mouth of the fissure back into its depths to hide. However, the moment we raised our flashlights, we could see the murals on the opposite wall again. The Giant Centipede returned to patrol the area from time to time; if I wasn't mistaken, this was its territory. There was no telling how high this cliff actually was. Our flashlights couldn't reach the top, but we couldn't go down either. Once we hit the ground, we would lose the protection of…
