The air date is still listed as TBD on iqiyi.com. If you scroll nearly all the way to the bottom of the list of dramas to be aired in the link, you will find it.

I have had the exact same thoughts about why anyone would be willing to invest in these Chinese same-sex adaptation dramas that are meant to air in China when they know that there is a very large chance it may take years to air or may never air at all. It just doesn't make sense from a financial gains point of view. It would make more sense to invest in these types of dramas if the plan was for the drama to only air on streaming platforms outside of China, such as was the case with the Chinese Bromance drama "Stay With Me", which was very nearly fully into the BL category, and was practically spitting in the face of Chinese Censorship laws. Stay With Me did give me a laugh at how it was so blatantly giving the finger to Chinese Censorship without actually crossing the line into being a full-on BL, though it was most certainly implied in several scenes.

Thank you! That link was very helpful and even answered the question of when other dramas on my watchlist would air.

I have heard that it has a sad ending.

Where can I read the novel with english translations? I just checked novelupdates.com, and they only have the first chapter uploaded.

Well, The Demon Hunter's Romance has now been moved to the very bottom of iQiyi's Coming Soon list. The good news is that it is still on the list and iQiyi hasnt totally removed it. There is still hope...however small it may be 😔🥺🥹

Aaaaaah! I'm soooooo excited for this drama! 🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍 My favorite genre/sub-genre paired with one of my fav actors...yes, please! I am so hoping that " The White Olive Tree" turns out better than "Road Home" did. While I did like "Road Home", it was a little slow paced and didn't have as much of an attention grabbing factor as what I had hoped it would. So, my hopes are high for "The White Olive Tree" and I am very much looking forward to it. I really hope it airs in the first half of 2024.

Ahhh, that explains it. Thank you!

So iQiyi just posted a video that supposedly shows Chu Kong and Xiang Yun/Cang Hai still finding eachother in the future in modern times. It is intermixed with their lifetimes together during ancient times. Does anybody know if this was a deleted ending scene?? Or did they perhaps have another drama together that was a modern drama? IQiyi makes it seem like it was originally meant to be part of Love You Seven Times. Here is the link to the reel on Instagram:
