hehe it's subtle hints there, but like, there's also the fact that the overarching conflict is between the System/Will of the Original Author who wants his plot to play out per canon, and XMM who's really not sure life needs to suck that much for your average Wuxia protag and everyone around them in the name of "character growth", they can just be inborn innately cool and have stuff go well for them and they can have a good time and it can still be a good book.

Once you also factor in that the Plot is sentient and actually forcing people to align with the narrative and key character events and forcing those key events to take place if people resist it, kinda like the Misery Bugs but on a narrative level, it starts to make sense why Plot Armor is happening. As the protag of a wuxia, he has a golden halo; no matter what, he literally can't die permanently because the author of the book he's in has not written his death at that point; thus the central conflict is not 'will he die or not' but 'can he stop everyone around him from becoming victims of the Plot in a way that doesn't break canon' to me. or I could be totally wrong, but that's my reading of it so far, I love these kinds of questions.

Enjoy your next pick, whichever your end up choosing :) Dramas are for entertainment, so agree there's no point in you sticking around for this one if it's not holding you like it's holding those of us who are loving it 😊😊

I definitely get the impression there are two of him inside that body, like maybe the real XQS and the XMM who went into his body are both there, with XQS's full consciousness waking intermittently but still largely being suppressed by the System (at least till ep18 or so). XMM subconsciously still seems to feel XQS's emotions and when he's in trouble (eg. that fight in Ep2) it seemed to be that XQS soul helped him a bit.

I agree with this theory

I saw that post too, and the one who replied to them. Both seem to be trying equally hard to inflame needless fan wars, blocking both XD

Just Sancai for me ;-;

*[Can older bro get any doucheier]*

I'm sure that having set him that challenge, he'll do his best to rise to the occasion 😂

Agree, translator has clearly got a terminology tool saying Gege for Xueyu is Yiren, and didn't stop to fact check when translating that sub hehe

tbf if millions are watching it illegally instead of on either of the platforms, those views would all not be counted in the platform heat index, which also won’t be helping 😅😅 Hopefully if those viewers want the heat index to climb they can consider watching legally, should only be a couple of dollars for a one month trial period.

😂 I have not read the original book so this I cannot answer hehe 😂

That guy who force fed him the medicine was force feeding him the other half of the yang pill that he got from crazy yan— Crazy Yan is the guy who originally had the hero token and sent it to the generals mother— you get a glimpse of him in that opening of ep1 where in XMM’s adaptation he gave him the 600 years of power pill that the System turned into poison 😃

It came from Crazy Yan, but we don’t know where Crazy Yan got it yet that I remember

love and support this reading of both characters 😂😂

😂

I am resisting the temptation to watch tomorrow’s previews but it’s hard, tomorrow is gonna be epic. 🔥

Because he’s the only one not on near death around and so they each want him to validate their teaching methods 😂

👏

It’s kinda like a theological difference those masters were having (orthodox vs unorthodox training) and proving their training methods were more powerful mattered more to them than sides 😂

And yeah if you think of it as a power bank, donating inner power is like massively increasing the amount of power in a battery, or hooking up a 400ah battery instead of a 10ah one. They will essentially have it till they spend it, but power transfer from others people is non rechargeable whereas what you develop through your own hard effort you can recharge with rest. (i think).

countdown is on for real😂

typical Yiren 😂🤬
