Destined Episode 39 Reactions
I liked that the final sequence of steps by Gu Jiu Si and Jiang He to stop Lou Zishang were clever and precise, but not over-the top flashy. It seemed more realistic. Overall a very good episode that got to a very bad extreme before turning around. The only 'negative' of the episode was the overly-drawn out end scene between Jiang He and Lou Zi Shang. After a minute of that I was rooting for the gunpowder to go off.
