Happy ending for the secondary characters: Xue Qian Xun and Qing, however, it is a open ending for the main couple. Although there's a bonus clip after the ending, you need to search for it, since I don't have the link where it shows the FL was reborn into a Princess, and she got her happy ending with the Longyan.

It's been explained throughout the story that Qing Mu is Bai Jue, they are the same person, so to me, when Qing Mu became one with Bai Jue, they are one, because Bai Jue have the memories of Qing Mu; and he not just have those memories, but he knows what Qing Mu is feeling, since no one knows it better than him. Hou Chi is the same in that sense, when Shang Gu regained her complete memories.

I don't like to separate both Qing Mu and Hou Chi away from Bai Jue and Shang Gu, because to me, both Qing Mu and Hou Chi are extensions to Shang Gu and Bai Jue. The only reason they have their own conscious (to me), that makes them who they are/being different to Bai Jue and Shang Gu is because (1) They do not carry their past memories and (2) They are not tied down by their responsibilities as "True Gods". But they are one and the same, where Bai Jue and Shang Gu are the 'complete' version to Qing Mu and Hou Chi.

So in the end for me, when Bai Jue and Shang Gu got their happy ending, it's an extension (same thing) as Qing Mu and Hou Chi getting theirs, since they are the same person to me.

And I was like "Shang Gu, why did you avoid him (although I know why she did LOL) because if you didn't you would've gotten your kiss much sooner", and Bai Jue was so embarrassed afterwards, hahaha. Yeah, that was a memorable scene for me too <3

Its happy but not very satisfying

Yeah, I also love what he said, because it shows how much Shang Gu means to him, and it's indirectly saying that he's not asking for her to love him back, to him as long as she's safe (her safety/well-being) is what matters. I see this as selfless, and this is also why his sacrificial path to take her place to ensure her safety (and wellbeing) touched me so much <3

If you want a good laugh, you can watch this BTS lol 🤣🤣

Bai Jue told Tian Qi that "if it comes back", so there's no certainty whether it will definitely come back after it's resolved the first time. To me, the tribulation of chaos is just a 'one time' only, that's why Zhi Yang said that it can only be resolved with the Power of Chaos, Bai Jue back then couldn't resolve it, because he doesn't have the Power of Chaos, so if he's going to sacrifice, it only will be able to sealed it temporarily and it will come back after the time runs out. So looking at this comparison, I do think that this Tribulation of Chaos is a 'one time only'

I do think this whole thing is a test though. The Chief God responsibility is to protect the Three Realms and that's their destiny, so when they accepted their destiny, that's them accepting that they will be the sacrifice to stop the Tribulations of Chaos (it's a test to see if they are worthy for that title as Chief God).

Back then, Xuanyi was the first Chief God, but after he found out the destiny of what was installed for him, he rebelled against the God Realm and went against Destiny. He even said that Destiny is the enemy. After he rebelled against his own destiny, and fall to the 'Devil', Shang Gu was born, which her destiny was to replace Xuanyi. Literally, you can say that Xuanyi made Shang Gu the scape goat on something he should have done back then. Well, if Xuanyi accepted his destiny, then there won't be a story to tell us the difference between Xuanyi and Shang Gu.

So when Shang Gu accepted her destiny, to be the sacrifice and stop the Tribulations of Chaos, Bai Jue protected Shang Gu from her destiny, by saving her soul and temporarily sealed the Tribulation of Chaos to stop the process back then.

When Bai Jue found out what exactly was the Tribulation of Chaos, all he wanted was to protect Shang Gu from her destiny. But Shang Gu accepted it because that's her responsibility as the Chief God.

I think this whole thing is like a test, so it was a 'one-thing' only. The story is telling us about Love & Responsibilities. Bai Jue protected Shang Gu from her destiny to replace her instead by obtaining the Power of Chaos, because he loves her, and he can't just sit back and do nothing. His sacrificial love is the core to this story, where it's not about love, but it is also about responsibilities of them being True Gods. While both Bai Jue and Tian Qi loves Shang Gu, they did not take the same paths to achieve the end result. Tian Qi only cared about protecting Shang Gu by sacrificing the Three Realms, and disregarded the innocents in the process, while Bai Jue will protect Shang Gu, by replacing her in this tribulation instead, which is protecting her from her destiny, and bringing peace to the Three Realms. Tian Qi even made a comment in the novel, after he realized Bai Jue's plan (which in the novel, is unlike the drama, he only found out just before Bai Jue sacrificed himself T^T) that his love for Shang Gu can never matched Bai Jue.

So, in the end, Bai Jue was able to come back is because of a 'miracle'; because they have passed this test, and it was also Shang Gu's wish for Bai Jue to return to her. I think it is also because their love has touched the Ancestors God to create this miracle for them, because in the end, they did not disappoint between love & responsibilities (how I see it).

Anyways, that's how I see it, in the end, I ended up rambling again haha.

Yup, he definitely made a lot of progress at the end of the 1st arc, and yeah, he was planning to confess to her too 😍😍😍If only that tragedy didn't happen 😭

IKR, none of us (non-novel readers) was expecting the tragedy to happen, who would have known the destiny of the Chief God would be this cruel 😭

He actually is, and shy indeed, but he's just someone who takes time to really fully open up/express himself. Afterall the last day they spent together, along with the part how Shang Gu took Bai Jue to the lower realm and they have their "date", that was sweet too, and during that time, he's already made big progress when compared to the reserved him at the beginning <3 Afterall you never can get an initiative from Bai Jue to kiss Shang Gu (back then), but he did, although how Shang Gu avoided him afterwards made him embarrassed hahaha! 🤣

I love them both! I don't mind the angst to be honest, as long as it leads into a touching moment afterwards. Ofcourse from time to time when the angst is too much, then I will always go back to the first arc (bless those moments in the God Realm) for the sweet moment between Bai Jue and Shang Gu <3 Sometimes if I want to watch their angst moments (that pulls at my heart), then I will watch those angst moments XDD

Honestly, when you go back and watch the God Realm, at the beginning, they were all precious moments between Bai Jue and Shang Gu, I mean, to this day, I still can't believe, Bai Jue actually said this 'out loud' ​to Shang Gu: "You are considerate and thoughtful, gentle and generous, beautiful and brilliant, tender and attentive. You're the best in the Three Realms" 🤣🤣

(While it is not something Bai Jue would say out loud, and this is all thanks to HongRi LOL 🤣🤣 but honestly, I do believe these were how Bai Jue felt for Shang Gu deep down in his heart, because Hong Ri understands Bai Jue best on his end 🤣🤣)

Tencent have a way with these videos to make us unable to move on, it's not the first time, I've experienced this back then when I was in too deep with Chen Qing Ling (The Untamed) LOL. Well, not that I am complaining because the more advertise Tencent does, the more fans it will gain, and hopefully this drama will reach a higher rating than it is now.

Hahaha, okay, whichever is easier for you 😅 (Hopefully by the time, I am still active on MDL as I am now ^^)

Yup, to be able to fangirl, and share our thoughts together, via the online platform with other fans is always a nice experience <3 I got my online friend into watching ALP, he started it on Tuesday night by watching 1 episode, and this morning (Thursday, well, my local time), he told me he is up to episode 9, and I'm like "omg, so fast LOL", I didn't expect that, I thought he will probably be up to episode 6 or something 😅 Well, not that I am complaining since I would be like this too, if I am watching hahaha 😅

OMG. LOL, the bromance between Xue Qing Xuan and Longyan is very welcoming and there's two BL moments LOLOLOL, that happened to be caught by Qing Qing, I was laughing so much during those times LOL 😂 and in the comment section fans were saying, "How come they get to have "these BL moments", and my Wangxian in CQL couldn't???" LOLOLOL 😂 😂 😂 😂 The actor for Jing Guangyao, turned out to be a 'scheming bastard' to me in Miss the Dragon, I was hoping he wasn't and I did like him at first in Miss the Dragon, but just when he showed his true colours, I'm like -___- And for me, I get the vibe.... that he likes Longyan on his end.... The romantic kind of like, like some of the things he do/said gives me that vibe LOL.

There is indeed a sequel/spinoff novel for Tian Qi and Bai Shuo(I think that's her name), but in the drama, you know the little girl that Hou Chi saved in Diben Town(I think that's the town's name), and how later Qing Mu teach her cultivation/martial arts or something, people/fans speculate that it is Yuemi's reincarnation, because her name is "Bai Shuo". So it is kind of is foreshadowing to a S2. But they didn't make it full-evident there will be a S2, the novel already have a sequel/spinoff though. Honestly, if the drama have a S2 for ALP, I really hope they can bring back the original cast, still want Xu Kai to play Bai Jue, and Zhou Dong Yu to play Shang Gu!!!

That's good to know that AMA have a happy / fulfilling ending for all fans to that drama ^^ As for no kissing scenes, I was fine in 'The Untamed', because I know it's BL, and they won't give us that due to censorship -_- So my expectations in the Untamed (Drama adaptation) wasn't that high, although Wangxian, or should I say YiZhan manage to pull it off with their great chemistry <3 <3 For Female/Male, I have a different expectation when it comes to romance side of things, since it's a hetero story, and so, why censor out their kiss scenes??? LOL, that I will never understand 😅Hahahaah, from the clips you've shown me, it does look appealing, so I might consider putting it down on my list to watch one day, although that won't be anytime soon, since I am currently having withdrawal problems from ALP 😅 I can see in those clips you've shared that Xu Kai's character does show that he loves/cares for Bai Lu's character, which is nice. Xu Kai really have a way of acting and expressing his love with his co-star <3 Even in FIYS (Falling into your Smile), the Female Lead (Cheng Xiao) made it awkward for me, from her side of the pairing, because she failed to show me her emotions like 'she's in love' with Lu Si Cheng (Xu Kai's character), but it was thanks to Xu Kai's character that made that pairing likeable to me haha 😅

In terms of where the ending is concerned, the novel ending is really disappointing, at least the drama gave us an extended moment, only by 'a bit' 😅😭 Seeing them in each other's embrace looking happily like that is better than not getting at all in the novel... Well, I will take forehead kisses over nothing at all LOL 😅 If APL have a more extended happy bliss/between the Bai Jue and Shang Gu and a family of 3 on the same screen, I would have been more content haha... 😅

The quotes and the scenes is making me teary 😭😭

Yeah!! Hopefully with more people rating it the rating will increase!! 9.0 will be awesome!!

Video by Tencent... Now I am emotional 😭😭
https://youtu.be/jarJYwbyNdw

I feel robbed with that ending. I wanted a more fulfilling ending 😭

Ohh nice!! Before was 8.5 now 8.6!!! This drama deserves a higher rating than AOL imo lol. Hope it can increase to 8.8 or 8.9!!

I'm not complaining. Xu Kai acting makes me a fan, and it's thanks to him that made the character Bai Jue and Qing Mu so enjoyable to me. Like I said before, Xu Kai is very good with his micro expressions, especially showing emotions through his eyes.

Haters will always hate which I will never understand those type of toxic people..
