Well, at least it is not that bad. Everything is solve in two episodes. From the trailer, it is King Nahzhao.…
In terms of the justice for the FL's tribe and all the previous massacres, the ML's mother and the King of Nanzhao are the ultimate villains. But white-haired CP is obsessed with FL and wants to conquer the world to have her, so he will probably outlast them.
She was disowned by her own father (chief of Meng tribe) because she was too evil. That gives you some idea of what kind of person she was, and she has not changed at all.
Could she also have plans to make her a puppet? I have a feeling she has something to do with her mother's death,…
Oh man, you were right. I assumed it was just the King of Nanzhao who was responsible for turning the Islanders into puppets. But turns out it was her, and the king was just an accomplice.
Prince mother is very suspicious. She says she was locked and then managed to run away. Then who's the woman locked…
I'm certain she's the King of Nanzhao's trump card to get rid of Ziqing. He mentioned her a few times, saying that she's really ambitious and dangerous, and releasing her would be a last resort. And the chained woman in the cave (where the Islanders were buried under ice) who attacked Beiyue was probably her too.
I wonder what game JBY's mother is playing. It's impossible to tell whose side she's on. But I do remember the King of Nanzhao saying that she's too ambitious and it would be dangerous to let her out. Even though she's their trump card, they're only using her because all other options have failed (to kill HZQ).
Unrelated question. How's the SML and FL now? Are they lovey dovey still??
I don't think she lacks the concept of boundaries - she never does anything that crosses the line (by our standards). But she is a modern person who believes that married women can be "just friends" with guys, a concept that didn't exist in ancient times.
Ok I just binged this because I like this actress (Miss Liu from The Double), and it wasn't bad. Compared to other shorties, it's pretty good but not amazing. The English title is rather stupid, considering she has no army, not even close, and all she can rely on are herself, one former lieutenant, and a couple of spies. The Chinese title ("the flower that belongs to no one") makes a lot more sense.
The FL is stunning (though ghostly pale) and quite capable, but there isn't as much action as I would've liked. I do like that the 2FL is not the typical evil "green tea" b!tch. Even though she likes the ML, she's very sweet and innocent, is willing to give up when she knows she doesn't have a chance, and even help the ML and FL. But we do have a typical delusional psycho 2ML.
The sad ending is not unexpected, considering she's all about revenge at all costs, and she knew her last mission was suicidal. But she should've gone down in an epic 1 vs 100 battle; instead she got stabbed by one lousy guy.
I imagine by ep 21, the truth will be revealed? I am already tired of this whole deception game between the two.
Episode 18 she gets her memories back. Episode 19 she knows his true identity but he doesn't know hers. I imagine that will take a while because it's unlikely for anyone to guess that Liu Mintang and Lu Wen are actually the same person.
Why did Nan Yan dad kill her mom and why did he have Shao Cang take the blame for killing his fellow classmates.…
NY's dad had mediocre talent, so he cultivated using a book written by Sen Luo that was a collection of all the forbidden/evil cultivation shortcuts. According to the book, one could become a god by combining the powers of the yin zhu (the jellyfish things) and three different types of hearts/cores. The first type of heart was cultivated by NY's mom, so he took it from her. Then he instructed SC to cultivate the second type of heart, then framed him for killing his classmates so that he could take the heart from him as a "punishment." That's why her mom and SC/JY were dying of the exact same heart disease; they both had their cores ripped out. The third type of heart is cultivated using the Seven Sins Manual, which NY happened to get, so he was planning to take his own daughter's heart too.
I don't know how I feel about the soul transmigration gimmick, and it seems a bit unnecessary to the main plot itself, which is quite good. Once the story picks up, it's an enjoyable watch.
Is this any good? I checked out the first couple of episodes and the pacing seems very slow, with very little happening.
The concept itself seems very interesting, but I think it would've been a lot more engaging if they told the story only from her perspective, i.e. as a mystery where she tries to discover who she is, and the audience is kept in suspense because we only know as much as she does (like in Princess Silver).

Why does the Sword Master always look like he hates/despises everyone lol
