would not rewatch
Pros:- There were a lot of sweet and cute interactions between FL and ML. Loved the skinship.
- ML actor has unexpected charm. I found his teasing, flirty, shy expressions very appealing as they were not the norm for the ML’s character
- The overall story line is actually interesting, even if the execution could have been better
- Good comedic side characters like brother Lu and teng she
- cute animals
- lots of food appreciation
- good fight scenes
- unexpected BL towards the end
- cgi wasn’t bad
- cute ending
Cons:
- FL says the ML’s name like 10 times per minute sometimes. At some point it becomes unbearable
- ML is either vomiting blood or has a bloody lip
- FL lacks complete agency and is easily manipulated to the point where it goes against the character development we’re supposed to believe she has gained.
- ML is supposed to be the moral compass of the show, teaching the FL how to love and be human. and while it’s a good concept, his self sacrifice was overdone. Also, his need to shield her from suffering ends up causing stupid misunderstandings
- Very repetitive, too many iterations of basically the same scene, same conflict, same misunderstandings. I ended up skipping so many scenes bc of this and was still able to keep up with the plot
- too many annoying and one dimensional side characters. Another reason I skipped scenes.
- the sister side story took up too much unnecessary space

powerful drama with a lot of pain and sacrifice
Die ten life times for the one you love mostthis is the message that this drama is telling ,, How to give your self completely to the one you love no matter how much you suffer or hurt even from them
The first half of the drama wasn't that strong and I got bored a little at the beginning ,, I was so annoyed with the Female lead's stupidity ,, she has the lowest IQ ,,, I got annoyed a lot of her lack of good judgment till episode 20 then she started to have some common sense and to grow up a bit .... the writer made the lack of her senses is the reason she was stupid but I don't think that was logical ,, may be the lack of her senses can make her cold or arogenate or heartless but not full on love and stupid hahaha
the second half of the drama it became more powerful and really exciting ,, I was really interested and involved more in the story in the second half ,, I didn't like the misunderstandings between the leads but I liked the male lead's suffering ,, it was really good Whump ,,this drama is considered the king of Whumper (hurt male lead the most )
The acting
was perfect from every single actor ,, they are all were the best ,, I enjoyed their performance and their unique characterization to every one of them ,,, every one has his own story yet it didn't get lost along the way and every one has his own purpose and happy ending ,, I really really liked that
I liked every thing about the second part of the drama that I want to repeat it again and again
This drama deserves all the hype around it ,, you just need to withstand the first few episodes and you will be surprised How good this drama is ,, the second part of it was The best
I recommend it so much to any one but I will advice always to bare the first half of it so you can enjoy the rest

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
i was late indeed, but lemme tell you how i experienced an upside down feelings while watching this drama.1. i wasn't into colossal cdrama beforehand (let alone angst drama), basically i love light modern drama w full of fluffiness. YET THIS ONE IS DIFF. idk i determined to binge watching it and eventually couldn't stop myself.:)))
2. i kept thinking that this drama has many eps hence i was afraid to give it a shot at first. turned out it's really worth my time.
3. why did i love it? simple, i like seeing strong FL (as she could stand by herself, defend her principle as well as the one that she loves. the ML was also great, he would protect FL at all costs and otherwise. their chemistry, its ost, and those support roles were very funny. they successfully intertwine to its storyline. (sometimes i laugh, sometimes i cry) *sobs
4. u should watch it! i assure u won't regret!

Boring drama
I saw this drama go viral because people were talking about it a lot on social media. And I saw a scene of the supporting ML and FL (where she was captured) so I liked it thinking it was the actual ML and FL so I decided to watch it.Usually when I find a new drama to watch I download the first 3-10 episodes to watch to see if I’d continue but with this I was so convinced it’ll be worth the watch and downloaded all episodes at a goal! I regretted it! I had to force myself to watch the whole drama since Ive wasted my data to download the whole show.
I must say I was utterly disappointed with this drama. Storyline was wack, the actors didn’t impress me.
I honestly wouldn’t recommend this to anyone to watch unless I dislike the person.

Love and misunderstanding
More like Love and misunderstanding. Guy keeps getting cursed. The times she says his name leave him alone by the end. Then we find out the back story djin and star were having a whole BL with their daily tea. But the celestial roofies him and turns him into a girl and makes God of war kill all her clan. Then he gaslights her as her senior when she falls for a guy. Then he ends with am i villain The only thing I love is seeing celestial beast tenghe how he portraying that he is really a snake when he is human form is really good. Why did little fox and little yahua have to go. The trauma of sister oh boyWas this review helpful to you?
The saddest series with the happiest ending.
Just finished watching this series and I-I am speechless. I have never watched something soo great! At first, I read the synopsis and thought it was interesting. To my surprise, this series was much better than my expectations. The suspense keeps you hanging, while the plot twists shock you again and again. Not only were the Main leads good, but the side characters and even the cameos also did a very good job. The Couple's chemistry is on point and the Osts serve as a cherry on top, followed by the amazingly done action scenes. This is a whole package! Love, Friendship, Family, Trust, Hate, Betrayal, and of course Fate. It's just that it happens to be a Sad + Sweet type of series. One moment you'll be crying of sadness, another moment tears of happiness will flow down your cheeks. Some might feel 59 episodes are too long, but you'll feel like they're too short when you start watching. Although the FL is dumb and naive in the start, as the series goes on, the character development is good. An equal relationship, this is what I think of the main couple. Followed by a happy ending, this series will leave you questioning you're existence.

Obsession, Deception, Love and Redemption...
In a fantasy world more or less anything can happen and I mean anything... As I started this drama the 59 episodes felt a tad overwhelming and to be honest while it had several interesting characters to catch my interest right from the start it did tend to be a tad draggy, extremely aggravating and annoying at times making me wonder if I could actually finish this.As time/episodes went by my interest and aggravation came and went... Besides suddenly craving cranberry juice I was pretty intrigued and though some twist where annoyingly easy to figure out most of them where not and quite a few of the twists/ new directions of the plot where fairly interesting making the last part of the show captivating making me even long for more odd but true...
If you look closely you can probably notice quite a few rainbows and LGBTQ+ storylines in disguise (for obvious reasons), playing with both gender identity (I am pretty sure one of the characters is gender fluid), sexuality etc.
The casting of the Male lead (and most of the others too) probably went something like: Here is some cranberry juice, try to spit/drool it out slowly... As the amount of fake blood/cranberry juice like substances where overflowing in each episode...
For the female lead it was more: cry out Sifaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang in desperation...
The chemistry between them is pretty awesome, and their acting and characters give you 2 or 3 personalities per beautiful body... Most of them lovable and fun to watch, Not bad right!
The main villains are so annoying you may want to see them crushed, tortured and turned in to fountains off cranberry juice.
There are a lot of thought provoking scenes about, evil, power, corruption, sacrifice, looking at the whole picture. the whole going beyond he is mean type of deal... As well as doing things for the greater good... Is there a greater good and will solving things with violence only lead to more violence or is there violence that is justified and could lead to peace, love and fluff? Any way you name it, this drama probably has it... Also some people just need to shut up and let people think...
There is a lot going on in this drama making giving you not only several personalities in each character but also give the feel of 3 or 4 dramas in one, the CGI effects could be better, however there are quite a few gorgeous scenic shots here and there.
So... in numbers:
Aggravation: 5-999999
Bingabilaty: Low first half, High second half
Lovable leeds: 9
Chemistry: 2-999999
Cranberry juice: 99999999
If you chose to watch it, you should prepare yourself for frustration, but if you can handle it i

Satisfying drama
Such a wonderful story! I truly love how the leads stand by each other through every trial, showing deep trust and understanding. Their bond grows beautifully, and the ending feels happy, complete, and so satisfying. It’s a perfect reward after all the pain. At least they finally gave justice to Sifeng’s long and emotional struggle, lol!Was this review helpful to you?

Too Much sacrifice for love!
I watched it recently in Netflix and got me frustrated most of the time. I actually forwarded almost all episodes.. lol. Si Feng's sacrifice was just too much! I was also waiting for him to get that BIG redemption arc where he is this SUPER strong character that wipes out all the enemies, but until the end, he was still all about the FL, then poof! went into coma. The effects were great though & glad it was still a happy ending, coz I'd be really frustrated if Si Feng went through all that difficulties, then just dies at the end.. I just think the story should have been better, if they weren't torturing the ML most of the time. =D. It was an okay drama overall.Was this review helpful to you?

i am crying literally crying not over how amazing or tragic or whatever this drama is but because of the stupidity of the characters. in one word we can give this drama the tile a whole bunch of misunderstandings made on purpose. like shut the hell up just be direct and resolve the misunderstandings but no to drag the drama to 60 eps there was nothing but misunderstanding and trust issues!!!!. i hate the fact that the hero tried to prove his loyalty again and again and again but his "friends" and "lover" just doubted him again and again. i was in support of devils at last. the stupidity of other sects were not in my bear. no investigations just accuse the one who seems the most.. i am like in the 47 eps and crying over my wasted time. but will end this and give review again. and at last i dont even want the male lead to end up with the female lead!!!!

NOT LIKE MY EXPECTATIONS ..NOT MY TASTE FANTASY DRAMA
I tried to start this drama after reading some comments about this drama ... but this drama is not like what I imagined so wow ...... far from my predictions ...This drama starts with a more interesting story and then gets more and more absurd (although at first I was a little amazed by those humans who have god-like abilities, but I still try to accept it and think of it as their cultivation style, even though it is true and should not be that far human capabilities should be)
I even recommended this drama on social media at first but as I continued watching it, I started to feel disappointed about it. too much plot hole in this drama.
The story in this drama is exaggerating in my opinion and cannot be logically accepted, even though it is a fantasy drama story but it has exceeded the limits of a fantasy drama in my opinion. humans can behave like gods, gods mingle with humans, as well as demons. as if there are no restrictions between these 3 realms. so that the story in this drama seems a bit chaotic and messy.there is no clarity of where this fantasy drama story will be taken ... humans can find out the origin of their reincarnation easily and it seems like it is something normal in their minds ... with bells they can communicate like now we are using cellphones ... lol ... totally absurd and exaggerating (for those who are still human) humans and gods have the same abilities ... there is no definite boundary between the three realms in this drama.honestly I am very disappointed with the story in this drama ...and once again " vomit blood and get a hurt is the best thing in this drama "especially the ML is very very weak, maybe He is the most weak male character I've see...lol...always get a hurt and vomit blood.
but I like the actors and actresses who play in this drama ... they have very good acting skills. besides that they are all very beautiful and handsome ... but unfortunately the story in this drama really doesn't attract me to be able to continue it anymore ...
Overall I can only give a 4/10 rating for this drama ... and of course I will not continue it anymore especially for rewatched it ..thanks.

NOT XIANXIA DRAMA...THIS IS MOXIA DRAMA... (finished it very disappointed)
at first I thought this is a very heavy fantasy xianxia drama, but after watching it to the end, it is not a xianxia drama but a drama "MOXIA" which focuses the story on mystical things, stealth mixed into the human realm (humans are friends with demons or other kind)This drama explains that the realm of demon is better and has a better character than the realm of the god.. This drama insults the realm of the god and distorts the facts about reality.
story development that is too wordy and boring ... this drama is closer to a kind of children's cartoon story ... and weightless ...
The chemistry between the two main players is also weak. the male lead character is not attractive at all ...
This is the most boring fantasy drama I've ever watched .. (1/10)
