Li Nan and XMM are both alive but in a coma in the real world. Having experienced the wuxia world firsthand and how it sucks to be any other character in the world of a wuxia golden halo cheat code hero Li Nan grows and becomes a better author (and maybe writes some books of his own), after serving his jail time for selling state secrets.
XMM also wakes up and continues his career writing less op heroes who are not given cheat codes or golden halos all the time.
They still don’t like each other but they are both better authors thanks to this whole experience, and meanwhile in the book pls give LCZ and XQS happy endings 🙏
In the first episode, Xiao was sitting at home when a system error occurred, and he entered the world of the novel.…
He forgot, he mentioned there was a gap in his memory so he temporarily forgot everything between the two events. *(waking and the ep1 bug scene, I mean). We saw the corner of desk had blood on it it so was most likely he bumped his head or was pushed falling, causing concussion. (prior to being fried 🥶)
He has been quite suspicious, unless someone else comes up as even more dangerously sneaky, he's topping the list...I…
I sort of hope it wasn’t from the beginning because if it was that little bonding and drinking together around the table scene in the flashback was all a lie 😅😅
From the sword king’s place. Possibly at hidden space of SK. Remember Sancai was a spy plant at SK’s side…
But yes, I guess all I mean is that the writing system wouldn’t be hard to teach or learn for people as brilliant as Sword King for communication with him.

I thought the implication was the falcon gang had been operating for years (maybe even relating to that falcon whistle of Yan’s kidnapped sister) so that they were not dropped into the story at the same time period? maybe I misread it though… I thought Mr Mask has been in the story since before the Crazy Yan battle back then with him saying he painstakingly planted Sword King yet he was removed so easily.
Ep.28: the conversation between the two CY's is strange. I don't know how the director filmed this. They're not…
I feel like probably intentional actually myself. The poster already made me think yin/yang symbol and then there was that little bit about good and evil coexisting happily a few eps back because martial arts are true neutral, it all just depends on the mind that uses them. I took it as a deliberate framing that they face in different directions yet still can coexist. (But I could be thinking of a different scene.) 😅

Simplified and Traditional Chinese aren’t two separate languages, they’re just the same letters written with more/less brush strokes. In 15 years someone like Sword King could easily learn to read it if taught, suspect he’d be fluent in Northern Watelander dialect-writing too.
Many Cdramas do have smart and capable female characters though
Agree, and she does it because she's just that self-possessed and amazing herself, not because she needs to be married to someone less strong than she is to make her look good. Separately or together in their marriage, they both shine. Would love to see more FL like her too.
I don't want to spoil it for you, so all I will say is that up till 18 that was also my feeling watching, and…
Ahh, in this case I cannot help you. I read it as that scene where XQS is floating in the water and then wakes up was XQS waking up properly, and that he and XMM are now sharing a body that currently shares memories, but that XMM's memories are disappearing more and more from, so that XQS 's original soul is regaining consciousness after being suppressed by the system/XMM, but that his soul was always subconsciously there impacting the emotions XMM was feeling.
That initially, XMM was maybe roleplaying some emotions out of a desire to live out his dreams of being a martial arts hero, as well as transferring some emotions (like the grief/disbelief/tears not actually being because someone's dead, but because he thought he could change that character's ending) but that as XQS' soul wakes more and more and remembers more, the emotions are more and more grounded in actually belonging to the present reality he's in. (And as the system says, eventually XMM will potentially cease to exist at all, and it will only be XQS in his body, remembering nothing of the fact that he's technically part of a book.)
Okay let me just say this.. This drama is great but I just can't connect with it at all even with all the emotions…
I don't want to spoil it for you, so all I will say is that up till 18 that was also my feeling watching, and post 18 I am so invested that I'd probably pay to watch if I didn't have a subscription already. And they explain it in a way that for me makes the earlier stuff make sense in hindsight in a way it maybe didn't watching it at the time. If you're pre-ep 18, then tl;dr is you're not alone, but (for me) it gets better. If you're ep19+ and still feeling this way, then I maybe can't help so much with it 😅😅
At this point, he can't not be on a rampage because what exactly has he done with his life if all of his life…
Yup, but by the sound of it, rather than 'being executed' a bunch of Northern Wastelanders dressed up in his Sect's clothes and started fighting the other sects and killed a ton as well as murdering LSF's sect, and then Xiao and the guys they fought against them thinking his sect started it, while trying to save the injured after, so neither side can truly be blamed in that case. But neither side is gonna be very happy about this fact I can bet.

In that case maybe he died in that initial ambush he said he was the only survivor of and never lived at all.
