护心 ‧ Drama ‧ 2023
In order to save human lives, a dragon prince takes on the task of ending the drought. He falls in love with a young woman, yet finds himself stuck on land for 500 years after she goes missing with his inverted dragon scale.

Because of a severe drought, the rivers and seas have dried and the people have been suffering. Ning Xiu Rui is the second prince of the Dragon clan. On his journey to land, he falls in love a young girl from a fishing village and gifts her his inverted dragon scale as a token of their union. As the drought comes to an end, Ning Xiu Rui realizes that both the girl and his inverted dragon scale are nowhere to be found. Ning Xiu Rui learns that the young girl escaped in the middle of the night. Thinking that he has been duped, Ning Xiu Rui is left to wander the lands because he is unable to return home without his dragon scale.

Five hundred years later just when Ning Xiu Rui was at the verge of giving up, he suddenly senses his inverted dragon scale. At the same time, a woman named Su Yin Yin who looks just like the swindler who fooled him appears once more.

Both dramas were romance fantasy. It is set on historical setting and has supernatural and wuxia elements.

I have read the novel for Heart Protection and recently watched Who Rules the World. They are similar as they both have some form of martial art in it, though heart protection focuses more on xianxia and WRTW focuses more on wuxia. They have similar plot where there is an overarching mystery for the main couple to overcome. They both have bickering couples, and it is a sweet romance

It is also similar as the 1000 year old white snake which had to become a dragon faces backslash from people she loved.
She falls in love with a human and undergoes many hurdles to protect each other. The fasty plot of the drama is interesting. I love Dramas invoking mythological creatures like pheonix,dragon , vermilion etc. And this drama adds that texture to the characters and everything inside

Zhou Ye leads a fight in the adventure and I find a lot of her acting in both dramas. I think that just for the chemistry you might enjoy this xianxia
