From my understanding (and I could be wrong), it seems to me like there are 3 versions of the same novel depending on when the 3 transmigrators transmigrated into the novel. I think that the first one to transmigrate was the Male Lead into a version of the novel where there hadn't yet been any alterations due to any transmigrator. His presence in the story alters the novel, after which the 2nd FL transmigrates and the "original" story that she knows is likely the 1st altered story. It is only afterwards that the FL transmigrates into the 2nd altered novel.
As for why the 2nd FL doesn't know why the ML is a transmigrator, I think it was never revealed as he hid it quite deeply and she simply never had the sense of figuring it out like the FL did. More than likely in the novel version she read, the ML simply never revealed his transmigration status since he had no reason to. And since his actions thus far hadn't been any different in how he was depicted in the novel she read she never suspected anything.

Theres like a million different copies of the same plot in manhuas as well. Theyre just spitting out generic stuff. I think a lot of these short dramas w/ generic plots count as a way for newbie actors and actresses to get some practice and exposure. They prob dont cost much to produce and because theyre short, the plot doesnt matter as much. Theyre banking on the audiences short attention span.

For one they prob dont know that she was part of that or how deeply she was connected to that. They prob know she's corrupt just not how corrupt especially since she was a part of that community they never expected her to betray them in such a way.

I mean its prob enough to kill or seriously injure the target at close range. He prob expected her to keep the phone near. The others figuring out that the phone was a bomb wasnt in his plans. The church bomb was what made the least sense to me. It was rather weak and placed in a rather less than impactful place where no one was gathered at the time. If he meant to make an impactful scene, it made no sense to place it there. But then again all his other bombs werent exactly placed in people heavy places either tbh. They were either placed in times or areas where there would be the least fatalities so I think he's not really out to kill innocents but isn't above killing innocents either. He just wants to cause an incident and get heard and reveal the corruption above in his own way and get his revenge.

It won't just take "time" like he said, it would take a few generations to push from technological ignorance to fullblown modern cold weapon civilization.

How the fck is he going to make an actual functioning gattling gun with the current technology of the times much less airplanes, war ships, tanks, etc.? The mini "gatling" pistol was already kind of a stretch to me.

As for why he was "sure" that Ye Mo would incarnate as a mortal perhaps he wasn't 100% sure but said that to reassure Ye Mo or perhaps he was able to use what remaining power he had to affect Ye Mo's destiny in the new timeline. Who knows.

The fight between the 2 seemed to take place in some place between realms outside of time which if I remember correctly they referred to it as the river of reincarnation or something. Correct me if I'm wrong. Which to me indicates that reincarnation exists in this world.
Tang Li Ci goes back in time and resets everything from the point of the Tian Ren realm ascending. He prevents the ascension, thus no Tian Ren realm exists within the new timeline and no eternal people. No one has gotten used to long life and so aging is no longer seen as a disease, thus no need for the creation of a Holy Son. Thus Ye Mo and Tang Li Ci are never born. But their spirits remain within the world itself and they will incarnate in a different form.
Thats my interpretation at least.

The reason he doesn't exist in present time is because he essentially erased his own existence (at least the him we know him as). Just as he explained to Ye Mo, that Ye Mo will be reborn as a mortal, Tang Li Ci will be reborn as someone/something else since the "Tian Ren" realm no longer exists. The birth of the "Holy Son" was only to help the "Tian Ren" realm's people maintain eternal life from what I understood. The people in the realm have gotten used to living long lives but perhaps due to limited "spiritual energy" or something in the realm they began aging and thus the "Holy Son" was created, a being so powerful that it could help them syphon the energy of the mainland which seems to be "Shen Zhou". Thats what Ye Mo was trying to do pretty much. But Tang Li Ci instead resetted the entire timeline, making it so that the "Tian Ren" realm never split from the mainland and so there was never a "Tian Ren" realm in the new timeline and no more need for a "Holy Son". Thus neither Ye Mo or Tang Li Ci will be born as themselves in the new timeline. So it is possible that the white fox we see in the end is in fact Tang Li Ci incarnation in the new timeline since reincarnation seems to be a thing here. Basically, in the new timeline Tang Li Ci was never born human.

Maybe he didn't really "rescue" the MC. He might have accidentally found him and simply schemed to use him somewhere down the line.

As for the ML not being her ancestor that may be true. Idk about the whole modern things being found in ancient times. I haven't noticed that, but it did occur to me that since they appeared in the past what about the mysterious figure who looked like the ML in modern times that the FL was chasing? Did he not disappear the same way that the FL was chasing him towards? Perhaps whoever that was travelled back to the past currently hiding somewhere and eventually ends up taking the ML's place in the past somewhere down the line and ends up being their "true" ancestor. That kind of makes up for the possible ancestry discrepancy in terms of this romance.

As for the "misunderstandings" that need to be cleared up, I don't think that will happen any time soon because the FL has to worry about possible ancestry stuff between themselves and the possibility of her and her families existences being erased if she goes along with this romance.

It also does appear that she ends up disappearing some time later according to the opening MV.

From their conversation with each other it sounds like his kingdom is subordinated w/ their kingdom. If its unknown to others in the world it could be that it was secretly subordinated some time in the past between the 7 what times that the FL won the tournament which made MQB's kingdom gradually weaken over time with less spiritual power or something I guess. To maintain a greater standing perhaps MQB had them subordinate themselves to another neighboring kingdom or something.

So it seems like ML is the adopted one as per episode 9. FL's father wanted a son but had a daughter, so he adopted the ML and doted on him, which the original FL was prob envious of.

After episode 6, I feel as though MC's elder bro is kinda sus. No real evidence, just his eyes and the way he stares at the box with the city lord token seems sketchy to me. He might be the hidden enemy trying to screw over his bro so he can take his place.

In an earlier episode when she is dead, he said they were not biological siblings. So its already confirmed. You must've skipped that part or something. He even stated that going by the time they were born technically he should be the older brother. Most likely their parents were close and one side became adopted when their parents passed away.

I feel like most if not all of the Wuxia dramas I have seen him in have similar kinds of endings. He seems to like playing these kind of roles.

I read that some people interpreted the ending to be open an open one but to me that wasn't the case. The theme of the overall story surrounds righteousness, loyalty, and sacrifice. Its explained how and why he dies and the final scene is him walking into the light, indicating that he is at peace and free after all the good he did. He dies with peace in mind and walks into the light unburdened. The reason why it shows him as XQS walking into the light is because thats the last memory he has of himself since before he dies in both worlds he was living as XQS.

Pretty sure he's the emperors uncle. LCZ was the brother or cousin or something.

The electricity happened first. He got shocked and entered the world. Its mentioned some time before that scene when he achieves sect leader and breaks away from the system that prior to all of that he had a missing portion of memory which the modern scenes showing leading up to his electrocution were the gaps in his memory. So no he did not suddenly enter the wuxia world in ep 1 from a system bug. The system bug occurred from the electrocution and sending his consciousness into the story.

Honestly I was wondering that as well.

They establish that loop days are natural. Officially there are 365 days in a year on earth that we perceive but in reality there are an extra 35 in which people don't perceive and repeats itself, adding to a total of 400. Those are the loop days. The MC and the others only gained the ability to retain memory of those days. Everyone else forgets what happens and experiences them as deja vu.
