1. Why would Jing give Feng Long his blessing (although he was obviously reluctant) when he was planning on stealing…
Censorship. LOL
The Xiyan King in the novel is related to her by blood. That's her grandpa. Her mother was his daughter who he loved very much. When he sent her to war, he did not know that the events that occurred (her using the sun power which "killed" her) would happen. In the drama, although XY's mom isn't his daughter, she was a disciple of his wife who he loved a lot and he viewed her as his own.
With the Hoaling King, his love for XY's mom runs very deep. Also, he did a lot of really messed up things that led XY and Xuan to lose their parents and end up in the situation they were in. For instance, even though XY's mom cut off her finger to ask him to help her brothers in the war he refused and they died as a result. There's a couple of other things too. But yea, it's mainly guilt and loving XY's mom a lot which is turn lead him to love XY as if she were his own daughter.

I try to keep an open mind when it comes to all the characters as they are all flawed and all do things that annoy me to no end.
I think the reason why some might be struggling with liking Jing though is because many people think that the hardships he is suffering could be easily solved if he grew a backbone or was willing to make more sacrifices.
And while I get that feeling because sometimes I feel that way (I go back and forth a lot between which characters annoy me tbh 🤣), as DramaAjumma pointed out a while back, XY is never willing to do the same for either Jing or XL in terms of making certain sacrifices yet she demands they do so in order to be with her and it's a bit...hypocritical.
1. Why would Jing give Feng Long his blessing (although he was obviously reluctant) when he was planning on stealing…
Many people will have different interpretations of the reason why but here is my take based on what I've read and watched so far in the show:
1. Because he really wanted to let XY go since he knew he did not have the right to covert her but in the end, he could not accept her being with someone other than him especially when he knew that she did not love that person and probably never would. So personally, I don't think he was initially planning on stealing FL's bride. I feel like these complicated feelings coupled with XL's "sudden" appearance and remembering XY's promise/the loophole allowed him to work with XL to steal XY away.
2. All the characters in this show have moments of weakness. That was XL's. You can see in that scene that for a moment he really considered "wandering around".
3. Character flaw meaning that this is one of Jing's negative characteristics. When it comes to his family matters, he always uses completely different approaches than when it comes to dealing with other things. It's explained more in the novel why he's like this but it's mainly because he wants to end the cycle of hatred in his family and feeling that taking/making certain actions will make things worse.
Sigh… Cang Juan… Loving and wanting Xiaoyao so much yet always holding back until he gets ahold of the world…
He gave his blessing for Jing and XY's wedding when he did not want them to get married. Despite their grandpa giving the okay, if he knew he could not accept her getting married to someone else, he should have just been upfront about that. Then when it's just them, he can explain to her why he can't accept that. There's a part in the novel where he tries to remind her of when she said she'd marry him but she doesn't remember. In that instance, he could have told her what she said and confessed. Xuan has had so many chances to confess to XY in the novel but chickened out every time. It's honestly ridiculous. He "lost" XY forever because he was never upfront about his feelings for her until it was too late.

I like Xuan but honestly I feel like he's .... a coward? (not sure if this is the correct word) when it comes to XY. Novel spoiler down below for my reasoning why.
I wish someone would make a long edit of all the couple-pair scenes. With just their scenes. For instance, all yaoxuan, yaojing, yaoliu, and yaofenglong. I might try to attempt it but no promises cause I've never made a video edit for a drama before 🙃
Can you guys remind me what chapter it is that XY slaps CX because of his war with GX aka Hoaling?
Lmao, I wish but that would be soo...unlikely... for so many reasons. Mainly GongGong's delusions. All roads lead to delusional GongGong. Messing up my potential yaoliujing.
Tbh, I've been super confused as to why people are acting like they'd be dating any of them in real life 🤣🤣…
I wasn't? I just stated my opinion just like you did. I'm not upset or offended or anything. This isn't that serious to me it's fiction. I just disagreed.
Need spoilers from readers please:In the trailer, we see CX confessing his love to XY on his knees, bleeding,…
This scene from what I remember is different in the novel. She's recalling a bunch of stuff to CX and calls him out. Then due to his pride, he admits that he had something to do with Jing's death and she loses her shit and knocks everything over. Then there's a shooting arrows at him scene her trying to commit suicided due to the pain of the betrayal etc. I think I posted an excerpt of it in the "Xuan and the one that got away. Spoilers!" discussion thread with the chapter number if you want to read it for yourself.

We can agree to disagree. I don't think he's in love with CX. And based on the reasons given for wanting to marry XY and some things I remember reading in the novel, I personally think he is. But that's okay if you don't we all interpret things differently :D
