Which is fact and which is fiction?

The lengths these 8 sect leaders are willing to go. 😝She is the mother of that girl who killed lower cultivated ones. Shi is almost mad in his efforts to get Tingyan as a weapon vs the price it is costing. He will truly be crazy before this is over. Nobody was more surprised than Sima Jiao at those memories. He knew they were false but to be so embedded in the soul manor was some serious memory tampering. He had no way to know she would willingly take her own life to be deceitful. Tingyan was surprised to see a vengeful ‘brother’ in her soul manor. She knows that in spite of what she’s been told, ‘she’ was the one that killed him. Ruling is cute as a kid.😂 Like all children she tends to see things more clearly than the grownups and asks the right questions. It is becoming more clear who the true deceiver is, but she still doesn’t understand why. It is also funny how fast Shi got his ass out of that wheelchair when he needed to. There is absolutely nothing he has not lied about. Unfortunately this will fall well with the demon magistrates wanting a coup against the lazy devil lord. But had that one shown any interest at all, he is probably the only one that could have truly gotten along with her. They have the same outlook in living. So Nianju wasn’t cultivated enough to see through their disguise and that is how Shi escaped the first time. He now knows it is Ruling that had her soul transferred and that he already assisted. He is sad that she might not remember him as Jiao let him know what might happen from personal experience, but he is encouraged that while she is alive there is hope. Tingyan is still not convinced Jiao has told her the truth, but she is no longer completely convinced that her ‘father and aunt’ haven’t lied. So she now must determine who is the biggest liar to her. The only thing she can really count on right now is her friendship with Ruling. Tbh, I wasn’t enthused with it in the celestial realm. But, without the burden of her mother’s death wish for Sima Jiao, she is more who she truly wants to be. I am not sure if she will remember Shi causing her sister’s death, but I hope she does. We need all the power we can get against that conniving old man😝 He unfortunately is truly a source to be reckoned with, but there is no depth he will not sink to to gain power. Here he might match the demon precept. Tingyan’s mind is reeling from the conflict of memories bombarding. Shi has been quite thorough in dismantling her feelings and memories from her life in celestial palace. He has forged her into the weapon everybody wants her to be. I truly despise his character. This actor has done a fine job making him despicable. Feng Qi actor gets to be annoying in two dramas for me.😂😝 He seems to do well in these roles. 😝The beauty of the lanterns and stars, how he mocked them. Shows he knows nothing about her. He is as bad as the others thinking training is her preference. However, with what is coming up, I am glad she is stronger rather than weaker. It remains to be seen how she will use her abilities. The cast and production are doing an excellent job portraying the different environments and I really like the music. I have not liked every episode, but the story is well told so far. They make you feel the conflicts quite vividly. You really hate the villains and really root for the good guys.
