Strong Start

Epic fight scenes, well choreographed and constructed with intriguing weapons and fight moves. High production value. Intrigues one from the very beginning with the characters, cgi, etc. Like the juxtaposition between the serious and more light-hearted, lazy character as well as the woman, doctor character and the "elders" seem cool too. Off to a great start,

Old-fashioned adventure

I enjoyed the powerful duel between the white-haired old men at the beginning. Then comes the young man, who also fights skillfully. He's serious, with a grim face, and his dragon mask. He only yearns for freedom. Will the special doctor girl be able to cure the main character's old master? Their conversation was also interesting.
I know this drama is part of the same universe as "The Blood of Youth." All the main actors from "Blood of Youth" promoted "River of Blood" on their Weibo pages. Does this mean we'll actually get a "Blood of Youth" season 2?

As long as one’s not dead, he can be saved

I have not read the novel or watched any of the dramas with this storyline so this is my introduction to this world and characters. The first battle was interesting as two elders were continuing a duel with a 30 year gap. One represents Tang and the other Blood River. They get reacquainted and are interrupted by assassins who want them both dead. The Patriarch’s guardian steps in and protects the patriarch who still gets a poisoned dart from a blossom thrown by his opponent. A healer is found and brought back who immediately and accurately assessed the situation but informed the Patriarch he had successfully killed the one best able to heal him. She says she can heal him for the right price. Two Blood River representatives were unsuccessful at thwarting the healer, but when the guardian refused to walk away, the knife wielder takes first shot at killing the Kui for the sword. Whoever gets the Patrarch’s sword and returns will become the next Blood River leader so there is guaranteed bloody chaos to see who will return victorious. This episode ends with the Kui’s mask cut in half and no winner determined. The Uncle is casually watching and waiting. Blood River is earning its title already.
