Nine Gates: More Children, More Blessings, Beginning with Marrying Huo Xiangu

[The Grave Robbers' Chronicles × The Mystic Nine] A suspenseful alternate-history tale of a Republican-era son-in-law

Chen Afu transmigrates to Changsha during the Republican era and becomes the down-on-his-luck young master of a coffin shop. From the start, a local thug kicks him straight into a coffin.

After binding to the [More Children, More Blessings System], he gets the picture: marry and have children to gain bloodlines, then build a family by expanding the family tree.

He turns to look at the icy eldest daughter of the Huo family. “Madam, how about we get married?”

From then on, the Nine Gates gains a son-in-law who’s the best at living off his wife. The Huo family gives him Qilin blood, the Xie family gives him an intelligence network, the Miaojiang saintess gives him an army of a hundred thousand gu troops, and even a Wang family spy gives him their ancestral secret arts.

Zhang Qishan calls him brother, Zhang Qiling fights by his side, and “It,” lurking in the shadows of history, finally realizes: this isn’t a son-in-law, he’s here to flip the table.
