How is Wan Peng in this show and does she have a romantic storyline of her own?
she's mentioned almost every episode LOL and is kind of the entirety of why everything in this show happens. she's not the main character but the storyline pretty much revolves around her. romantic storyline is a yes/no kind of thing. its there but its not fleshed out as of ep 26. I honestly wouldn't mind if they did a sequel that was more fleshed out. I feel like Wan Peng and Li Yun Rui would've been a great tragic couple haha
Honestly, no one in the six section seem like likeable decent people except for Zhao Zhao's family. Sometimes Yuzhi's dad too cause he at least listens and comprehend. Some of these other folks are straight up plotting for power and hidden in the shadows or listening but it goes in one side and out the other. Like, I've always had issues with people listening to other people and then just straight up being like no you're wrong cause theyre portrayed as evil so they must be evil and we're the good people so everyone on our side must be good. like folks, thats not how the world works lol theres bad and good people everywhere.
can someone with tons of money do us all a solid and buy the rights to all these shelved "Censored Adaptation of Same-sex Original Work" dramas and release it internationally 😭🥲😭
There are times when I see the ML force a kiss on the FL and it gives me an icky feeling but I think it was well done here. We, as the audience, can clearly see that Zhao Zhao knows she feels something more for MQY. she's just not acting on it because 1) she's engaged and 2) he's part of the demon sect and so she's hesitant on how that would impact her parents and Luoying Valley.
the ML has been quite patient with all of the FL's rejection, so he understood that she was hesitating and was waiting it out with her. however, with the wedding being nudged and urged and talked about all the time, he really wasn't about to lose the only person he truly cared about. he kissed her as a way of wanting her to realize that there really is something meaningful between them where he's not just a friend.
and let's be real. if Zhao Zhao really hated it, he would've gotten a hand to the face. not a silent retreat from her.
I cant wait for an actual kiss kiss haha if that makes sense.
also, the 2 disciples that are on Zhao zhao's side are so cute. the way they just smashed the rock wall 🤣 also, what are you about to do you guanyue?!
After ep 20 (im at 22) the story delivery is really weak and boring, it feels like purposely slowing the pace…
same, it slowed so much, I put it on hold and just now fast forward binged it to the end. it starts well and ends well. the middle drags out and gets boring. but I find that a lot of cdramas has that issue with pacing. and also how they can't give us longer endings after the main conflict is over. 😭
wrapping up the show now and I get why people hate on the sister but I honestly think she's fine the way she is. yes she blindly followed a man thinking she could change him and threw herself at him. but the moments she had enough of his nonchalance, she stopped. while I don't think it was right of her to seek revenge when he clearly told her he didn't like her, she didn't cause too much damage. sadly, a dead eunuch and she got her karma when he stabbed her and she lost her child. and while I logically know the emperor was just a playboy psychotic boy, I'm glad that she received his love because even right before he died, it was clear he didn't treat her like a mere plaything. she had her annoying moments but she owned up to it even when speaking to her brother. she's better than some other whiny siblings I've watched in other shows that just go on and on and how their life is unfair or they deserve better, at least she was like I effed up, my bad. I deserved what I got for the decisions I made. thats that lol also, its an interesting contrast how the Susha siblings/step siblings got along well vs the Jinxiu step-siblings while both had a mother that tried to continuously cause a riff between them. though Jingyan didn't need any pushing, lol he wanted to straight up kill him and the mom was the one that wanted to keep him alive to use him eek
On 27-28, and kind of annoyed that the Murong family were pretty much given a pardon, but because it wasn't communicated to them it caused a waterfall of consequences. 😮💨 it was quite sad to see the murong harming Suige. they were all sad about it and it makes it worst when in reality I feel like had they knew they got the "Get out of jail" card about to be handed to them and with the evil prime minister out of the way, there probably wouldn't have been any more evil actions from them. his dad wanted to protect him and the son didn't want to cause more problems after his dad found out. that could've ended there. 😭
With her master pushing his demons in disguise are evil beings agenda, he's definitely guilty. I feel like he even played a part in Pingshu dying. Maybe ML's dad was supposed to help her and instead he was stopped by the master and severely injured making it so he couldn't ever leave to find her? 🤷🏻♀️ idk but master suss. 18-19 slowed down so much LOL it went from action to lets separate and then have others slowly talk about all the love issues going on but take no action. Just talk and gossip. has anyone read the novel and know who the man in black is? I don't mind spoilers haha
the show was visually stunning. and every time Tang Lici showed up, the fit was gorgeous. I must say, Luo Yunxi is a very beautiful man lol
other than that, the show started off great. was sooo draggy in the middle that it took me forever to finally finish it. however the last few episodes were action packed and moved quickly. the ending could be stated as neutral i guess. did Xue Xian Zi remember tang lici?
Honestly, I'm loving the cute banter moments between our leads. they're honestly very sweet together. Also loving the ML's followers so far, especially Xing'er. They seem more flexible than the upright sect (who were actually bullying "Chang Ning") who are more rigid in their ways. But, still wondering how I should feel about Lord Qi and Lord Song. Also, Lord song and his son have such different personalities LMAO
