Wow. Spoiler: This episode ends with both ML & FL apparently 'dead'. That's pretty much the lowest point the series could get, right? Of course, with 9 more episodes to go, it obviously isn't that simple. Aside from whatever this leads to, this was a very emotionally intense episode and I gotta give major props to Zhou Ye (the FL) for delivering a helluva performance in this episode. She displayed intense pain, despair and defiance - heck, even kindness and compassion -- all while mostly chained to one spot. Such a great actor.

This drama is seriously neck and neck with The Moon for me. I dunno how I was able to stop the tears dropping…..mostly from looking up and fanning myself with both hands but still 😭 😂I’m loving the angst level in this. It’s not the same as The Moon but it’s close enough 😘🤌🏽❤️✨The flashbacks always makes me wanna restart this 🥺 this couple is just pure love, not the obsessive kind at all. It’s a new feeling 🥺💕✨

Omg, the tears! Their love was so strong, the anguish and despair was clearly portrayed in their faces! Both ml and fl nailed the feels! When Neo cried I felt my tears overflowing as well! ❤️❤️❤️

The inevitable Episode of separation and despair every Xianxia has. Your going to despair and love it. The MLs really deliver on the acting front.

The most painful episode, i couldn't stop my tears from the beginning till the end.😭😭😭And yet it shows how much they loved each other, even when in the great pain all they think is the other.
