The original reads: ็่ฅๆงๅ๏ผ้ฌ่ฅๅ่ฃ๏ผๅ็ๆ็ฎ๏ผๆฐ่ดจๆ็ถ.
The first part probably comes from โDream of the Red Chamberโ, chapter 3. At least the part about the hair on the temples.
ๅ็ๆ็ฎ, eyebrows like swords and eyes like stars, describe a certain kind of heroic, valiant and upright look.

Heavenly Tribulation (ๅคฉๅซ tiฤnjiรฉ) (้ๅซ zhรฒngjiรฉ) โ in some novels, a trial encountered by cultivators at key points in their cultivation, which they must resist and ultimately transcend. Because immortal cultivation (generally) goes against the Will of Heaven, the Heavens will send down tribulations to oppress high-level cultivators who make progress towards Immortality, often right when they enter a new cultivation stage. This typically takes the form of a lightning storm, with extraordinarily powerful bolts of lightning raining down from the Heavens to strike at the cultivator.

Taiji is understood to be the highest conceivable principle, that from which existence flows.

You might have seen this in other novels or historical dramas, the executioner spits a mouthful of wine before a beheading to ward off evil beings.

Original was ๅฆไบไธช่พฃๅญไธๅผ่ฑ. I appreciate better translation options.
1 month of nurturing in the dantian is just equivalent to a mouthful of wine
.(:ะทใโ ).
When spiritual wine has more spirit than the part of your body with the most spirit ๐
300 years of keeping the weapon as last resort :”)
…I unexpectedly feel a little pity for this old friend who was so easily fooled.
And sighs MTL…. to think even your friend acknowledges your obsession with your cat and doesn’t recognize you unless you behave like so… you really reached the peak with Xiaozhao’s cat form, huh. Might as well reach the peak “closeness” with his human form too since you’ve already started it xD
Thanks for the chapter! ๐
Wow, so many chapters at once! Thank you very much for the translation โค
Lord Kitty pretends to sulk but still accompanies Mo TianLiao and helps him on his swindling mission ๐
Tysm for the chapters!!!
A good friend/customer had just been swindled… for hundreds of years (เนหฬตแดหฬต)
Doesn’t Mo Tianlao’s oddities kind of act as a check and balance for the people using his powerful creations though? tries to put it in a nicer way, even though the real reason lies with aestheticsYaaay, shizun is floofy again~
Thanks for the mass update โฐ(ยด๏ธถ`)โฏโก
I wouldn’t go so far as to call SD a friend, at least not according to MTL (more like a useful idiot) SD did have some respect for Duantian as we’ll see later. This respect will be expressed in a truly ridiculous fashion.
Thanks for the chapter! Foolish guy & foolish beast, they suit well, lol.
lol. Poor guy hasnโt been able to properly use his weapon all along because of someone elseโs aesthetics ๐
Thanks for the great translation โฅ๏ธ
I just noticed that using the old chinese way of describing appearances for people always includes some type of flower or celestial when describing females and weapons when describing males ๐ no one realistically cuts their eyebrows with an axe and their hair with a sword, its so awkward to use and very dangerous, why canโt they just say โperfectly cut with a sharp itemโ or something ๐๐๐
And why are the people around MTL and MXZ so gullible and easily manipulated ๐๐๐๐ or are they just too good at lying and manipulating people? ๐ค๐ค
THANKS FOR THE CHAPTER!!
Thanks for the chapter! ^ ^)/
I wasn’t expecting another chapter! Thank you so much for the chapter!(เนยด>แ<)~โฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธ
Like master ๐, like lion ๐ฆ
๐ Thank you
Ahahaha, that big, black and ferocious lion… and then it meets Lord Litty lolol
Thx for all the bonus ch (ใท_ _)ใท
What does it mean when they say “xxx has MET xxx”, for example when MTL says ” Junior has met Lord Shi Di” as a greeting/salutation? Sorry just curious as I have not seen this kind of greeting before in other xianxia novels. Thank you for the extra chapter!!! ๐๐
It’s just a way of being polite. Perhaps it sounds odd in English but I also didn’t want to have too many translator notes.
Thank you for the explanation! ๐
I Just saw there’s another chapter!! Great!
This poor Shi Di is really gullible, but he’s taking advantage of this ‘nephew’ so I don’t feel Bad for him.
It’s hilarious how that big lion is scared of Lord Kitty. Haha
Thanks for the chapter!
Haha the lion is so funny! Thanks for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter! ๐
I love how all of these ferocious beasts are scared of Lord Kitty ๐
How powerful is a kittyโs yawn ? ๐คฃ๐๐ฆ
Lmao when everyone knows just how obsessed Mo Tianliao is with his cat
his explanation was so plausible that if i didn’t know the truth, i would have gotten scammed as well ๐๐
The way he’s so good at manipulation though. ๐
Bru, Tianlao is such an a$$hole ๐ Why is he like that ๐ญ
why is he giving the weapon to him after?? such a waste orz
