Chapter 1: The Three Ghost Lords (Part 1)
his mouth.At the city gate, Li Qiye silently burned paper money, whispering in his heart, "Little Hei Zi, rest in peace. In this life, you helped me regain my body. One day, I will stomp on the Wicke...Chapter 1: Three Ghost Lords (Part 1)
“Whoosh!” With a sound, Li Qiye, who was floating in the river, was pulled ashore.
"Ah!" Li Qiye let out a cry, jolted awake by the pressure on his chest. As soon as he woke up, his first reaction was to jump up. With a "jump", Li Qiye felt a sudden unfamiliarity with his body and stumbled, nearly falling over.
"My, my body!" Looking down, he found that his body was intact. Li Qiye was both surprised and delighted. After living for millions of years as a Yin Crow, he had finally reclaimed his own body. Even though he had endured countless hardships and seen countless storms, he couldn't help but feel excited at this moment.
Finally, Li Qiye took a deep breath and looked up. He saw an old man standing in front of him.
“Hee hee hee, it's old me who fished you out of the river,” the old man chuckled. As he spoke, three large yellow teeth were exposed in a grin that was as sleazy as it gets.

Li Qiye followed the river, gazing into the distance where he could faintly see the outline of the Immortal Devil Cave. At the sight of the Immortal Devil Cave, his thirteen-year-old appearance hid a cold glint in his eyes, and an aura that belied his age emanated from him.
Li Qiye took a deep breath, looked at the old man, and after a long while, he said, "How should I address you"
"Three Ghosts' Grandpa, washing face ancient style." The old man said with a sly grin, opening his mouth to reveal three yellow teeth and drool dripping down.
"Facial Cleansing Ancient Method"—Li Qiyue couldn't help but mutter to himself. For a moment, it triggered his long-forgotten memories. He had been trapped in the Yin Ya body for millions of years.
“Who now holds the Mandate of Heaven” Li Qiye came back to his senses and couldn’t help but ask.
"Heaven's mandate Heaven's mandate is something no one can yet bear." The Third Ghost King said with a sly smile.
"Where is the Void Immortal Emperor" Hearing this, Li Qiye's face changed slightly. Could it be that he had slept for hundreds of thousands of years this time
"The Voidwalker Emperor disappeared three thousand years ago." Three Ghost Grandpa still said with a grin, revealing three yellow teeth, very wretched.
"Where is the Black Dragon King of Zhen Tian Hai City" Li Qiye asked again.
The Three Ghosts Grandfather shook his head and said, “No one knows, the Black Dragon King also disappeared 30,000 years ago.”
Upon hearing this, Li Qiye's face changed drastically. He looked up at the faintly visible Immortal Demon Cave in the distance. At this moment, he understood why he had regained his own body.
“Let’s go!” Li Qiye’s face darkened, he turned and walked away without caring if the Three Ghost Lords followed him. Having lived for countless years and endured countless hardships, he already knew what to do.
Zhen Tianhai City, in the present day, is the most powerful and invincible legacy. Back when the Black Dragon King was alive, he reigned supreme over the heavens and earth, with no one who could rival him! Three generations revered him!
Although the Black Dragon King has been missing for 30,000 years, today's Zhentianhai City still stands majestically between heaven and earth.
Outside the town of Zhen Tianhai, there was a thirteen-year-old boy and an old man who looked wretched and had three yellow teeth showing whenever he opened his mouth.
At the city gate, Li Qiye silently burned paper money, whispering in his heart, "Little Hei Zi, rest in peace. In this life, you helped me regain my body. One day, I will stomp on the Wicked Domain and avenge you!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Finally, Li Qiye raised his head and looked at the massive Zhentian City. Time had changed everything, making it feel like a stranger to him. He recalled how this city rose from the ground, year after year, thanks to his and Xiao Hei's hard work!
Unfortunately, after 30,000 years, who would know about the shadows that once lurked in the darkness
"Well, let's go wash up the old-fashioned way." At this moment, the Third Ghost Master popped out again, three yellow teeth shining in Li Qiye's eyes.
"Let's go," Li Qiye calmly nodded. Regardless of how the Third Ghost Lord appeared and disappeared, regardless of the Third Ghost Lord's origins, none of it surprised Li Qiye. After enduring countless hardships and being trapped within the Crow Demon's body for millions of years, experiencing one era after another, he had accompanied emperors and walked with divine pharmacists. What else could surprise him
Li Qiye walked away for not long when a stunningly beautiful woman emerged from Zhen Tianhai City. She was like a fairy of the blue waves, a goddess of the sea. As she walked out of the city gate to journey afar, suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a corner of burnt paper money at the foot of the city wall. On this corner of paper money, there was faintly visible a symbol.
At the sight of this symbol, the goddess's face turned pale. She said in a low voice, "Who burned paper money here just now"
An elderly servant beside her quickly got the answer and replied, "According to the guards, a short while ago an old man with a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old came here to burn paper money."

“Chase them, find them!” the goddess said in a low voice immediately.

“My lord, are you going to Mount Shen” the old servant couldn't help but say.
"Chase—" As the goddess's words left her lips, she vanished into the sky, instantly chasing after him.
In the end, the goddess still couldn't find the person burning paper money. She returned to Zhen Tian Hai City, and remained silent for a long time. That symbol hadn't appeared in Zhen Tian Hai City for a very long time. Why did it appear again after tens of thousands of years Was it friend or foe

“My lord, I haven't found the one burning paper money.” Finally, the loyal old servant reported.
“Order everyone to keep an eye on these two people. Don't make a fuss, and report back to me immediately if you hear anything.” The goddess said in a low voice.
This statement caused the old servant to be taken aback. Their Heavenly Sea City wielded power over the world, and their Highness, the Ocean-Suppressing Goddess, was also renowned throughout the ages. It was rare to see her in such a solemn state.
>
“Over at Mount Shen…” the old servant said, hesitating for a moment.
"Cancel—" The goddess said in a low voice: "I need to review the ancient books left by my ancestors. This matter is a bit strange!" Saying that, she entered the deepest forbidden area of Zhen Tianhai City.
The ancient school of Xiyuan is located within the territory of Baosheng Shangguo. Xiyuan Ancient School can be said to be a long-standing inheritance, a fairy gate imperial lineage. In the early days of the reign of emperors, Mingren Xiandi, who dominated the nine heavens and ten earths, founded the school here, naming it Xiyuan Ancient School.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Unfortunately, after millions of years, times changed. The Xianmen Dynasty that was once powerful and dominant no longer exists. After countless years, the Xiyuan Ancient Sect began to decline. Although it experienced a revival, it still couldn't reverse its downfall.
“Elder, something’s wrong. A mortal has come to our sect and wants to be our chief disciple.” That day, the great elder of the Xiyangu Sect woke up early, and his disciples rushed to report.
"Blast him off the mountain!" The Grand Elder said without even glancing, "Such a trivial matter, does it even need reporting"
A mere mortal, wanting to become the chief disciple of the Xiyang Ancient School What a joke! The chief disciple of the Xiyang Ancient School holds a different meaning. The chief disciple is also the successor of the headmaster. Chief disciples often have the possibility of becoming the next generation headmaster. Although the headmaster is not in the sect, elders can still make decisions on this matter.
>
“Well, but... he was recommended by the San Gui Ye.” The disciple stammered out, unwilling to speak.
“Three Ghost Grandpa” The Great Elder couldn’t help but glance at him and said, “He’s not going to borrow someone else’s wine and promise them favors, is he”
The Three Ghosts Grandfather, yes, he was indeed a person from the ancient washing face school, but the ancient washing face school was even more reluctant to admit that he was one of them.
Sān Guǐ Yé, the name sounds quite imposing, but it leaves the elders of the Xǐyán Gǔpai school with shame on their faces. Sān Guǐ Yé has three great loves: wealth, gambling, and prostitution. He calls himself "Ye" (Master), so people jokingly call him Sān Guǐ Yé (Three Ghosts Master).
Sān Guī Yé hadn't practiced his kung fu for very long, but he happened to be quite influential in the Xǐyán Gǔpai. It was said that he was the illegitimate son of the previous generation's master of the Xǐyán Gǔpai. Therefore, when the previous generation's master was on his deathbed, he instructed the current master to take good care of Sān Guī Yé.
There are also some rumors that the Third Ghost Lord is actually the illegitimate son of the previous generation's master. Because the previous generation's master owed a great debt to the current generation's master, the current generation's master took on this black pot and has been taking care of the Third Ghost Lord ever since. When the previous generation's master passed away, he also instructed the current master to take good care of the Third Ghost Lord.
No matter who the illegitimate son of the Third Ghost Lord is, his disgraceful background makes even the high-ranking officials of the Xiyuan Ancient Clan unwilling to delve deeper or speak about it publicly.
For such a man who loves wealth, gambling, and women but has little virtue, neither the elders of the Washing Face Ancient School nor the other disciples liked him.
“What's so good about San Gu Ye anyway He deserves to be blasted off the mountain!” The Grand Elder was in a bad mood. He had woken up early only to have his mood ruined by this name.
>
"Well, well, but... he, he, he had the Cleansing Ancient Decree from the Three Ghost Lords in his hand." The disciple stammered.
"Wash the ancient decree!" Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder's face changed involuntarily. After pondering for a long while, he ordered, "Summon the other elders and have that mortal wait in the main hall!"
When the elders heard the phrase "Ancient Washing Face Order," all five of them immediately changed color and had to attend. There are six elders in total in the Ancient Washing Face sect.
The Washing Face Ancient Decree, is the only remaining one of three ancient decrees left by Mingren Xiandi, the founder of the Ancient Washing Face School. The other two were long ago retrieved, but for some unknown reason, this last one ended up in the hands of the Three Ghost Lord.
Apart from being told by the previous master to take care of Sān Guǐ Yé, there was another reason why Sān Guǐ Yé could remain in Xǐyán Gǔpai. The elders couldn't do anything about him because he possessed a Xǐyán Gǔlìng.
He who carries this decree, is like the Heavenly Emperor Mingren descending upon us. He who carries this decree, may present one condition to the ancient washing face decree.
Sitting in the grand hall of Xiyangu School, looking at this ancient hall, and at the statue on the main altar shrouded in smoke and fire, Li Qiniang couldn't help but be reminded of many dusty past events.
>
The statue enshrined in the main hall was that of the Mingren Immortal Emperor. Although countless years had passed, the hazy statue still possessed an aura of ancient might. It soared high above the heavens, inspiring a sense of awe and reverence.
Looking at the statue, Li Qiye felt a mix of emotions. Countless years had passed, Emperor Mingren was gone, but he had lived through countless eras. Today, he finally reclaimed his own body as he wished, but how many heroes and legends had vanished into smoke and dust.found the one burning paper money.” Finally, the loyal old servant reported.“Order everyone to keep an eye on these two people.
