CH 1

Ch 1 - Second Generation Ancestor x Illegitimate Child: Rebirth

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

1 成王敗寇 lit. succeed king, lose bandit. From the longer ‘called a king if successful, called a bandit if defeated’ Meaning that, in a struggle for power, the winners are legitimised and the losers are vilified. Like the saying ‘A thief passes for a gentleman when thieving has made him rich’. Top.

2 Text says 點家修真文里 which I think is referring to a cultivation novel from the website Qidian? I used the word ‘xuanhuan’ since apparently Qidian is popular for its fantasy/cultivation adventure novels aimed at a male audience. Top.

3 Human cauldron/furnace or vessel. Basically a type of person whose constitution dooms them to be used up by other cultivators and drained of their vitality, and who can’t really cultivate on their own. Here’s a slightly longer explanation. Top.

4 Describes a handsome, heroic appearance. Sword eyebrows are thick and straight, star eyes are bright and piercing. Top.

T/N: What’s up. I picked this novel up the other day and I was having fun with it, so I figured I’d put it here. Updates will be a little sporadic until I’m finished with Life Going Wild With Plug-Ins, but I’ll try to not leave too much time between chapters. ~(￣▽￣)~
