A story that follows Xu Fengnian, an arrogant yet gifted young noble whose father harbors high hopes for him. After several hardships, he grows in strength and becomes a protector of the nation.
Xu Fengnian treads an unknown path in the world of jianghu. Although the road is long and laden with ruthless killing, he perseveres in elevating his martial arts skills. Xu Fengnian is motivated by his mother’s vengeance and forms friendships with individuals from different walks of lives.
When Beimang began its attack against the Central Plains, Xu Fengnian returns from his travels to lead the iron cavalry in its defence. Infighting within the imperial court results in the deaths of 300,000 soldiers, yet Xu Fengnian fights to regain the lost ground to protect the common people.
Indeed the mix of humor, sarcastic, arrogant, sensible becoming a powerful superhero fit him like a glove. Thanks to scriptwriters and directors who manages to give him this to shine. There are few pending dramas with him yet to air, hopefully in 2024
have you seen joy of life? if yes then how is this one compared to JOL?
JOL is top of the top: main and support actors and actresses, script, directing, stor. Everything 10 SSS is good but mostly supported by the 2 male actors. For me, it was too slow and not exciting. After 10 episodes, took a break. Then decided to finish. Still very good but for me a 9.
I strongly disagree. Wuxia was not the sole reason for the slow pace of the drama. In fact I kinda like the martial arts choreography and special effects. It was the continuous visits to the sects and carriage talks that made it boring for me. I do understand that some characters needed explanation but I found myself uninterested in some such as the sick sister and the badass sister. It was too many characters and not enough depth. It was jumping from one to another with no real purpose. Nevertheless, I do agree that Zhao Kai and Xu Fiengnien stole the show and that Jiang Ni's actress didn't quite match up to him. In my opinion, the drama falls short of my expectations. It is possible that the actors lacked the charisma and the talent of those in JOL. That's my opinion anyway, everyone is entitled to think differently.
Finished SSS. Good but at times too slow for me. I enjoyed the special effects. The swords in the sky were hilarious. But the picking nose by Sword Divine was annoying, no romance which was okay. Overall, good but not great for me.
It is not an I like/love you. None say that. More like actions. But at one point he said in public “my woman” and she said “finally I found someone I love”. There is no big declaration but both are more demonstrative in words second part of the season. It is a beautiful love story but if you are looking for kissing scenes and declaration, this is not what you will find. Again the love story is more subtil and it is definitely a memorable love story. Just give it a try. 😉
Not yet. Half. I am reading the web novel joy of life lol But I like the ML a lot. Good drama both but JOL remains 20 out 10. Will tell you when I finish SSS. right now I am immersed with the web novel

Sarcastic comment here. Anyway, not saying it is bad, far from it but I would have probably dropped if both male actors were different.
