DON'T READ AHEAD if you don't want spoilers from eps 35-38!
Omg! I just finished watching them 😭😭
Now I understand why comic relief was used immediately after the divorce scene and after the reveal of her condition, because the makers didn't want to make all the last eps tragic. First when Xuan Hui dies it was hard to watch and then when MZY sacrifices his life for WZ and the two realms is just too heartbreaking 💔 💔 and she had to do it herself because apart from MZY, only WZ could somehow wield the power of the Changxi weapon. In the last 10 or so episodes, you can really see why and how MZY is the lead.
Mei Si doesn't die, that was a false spoiler and his story continues with LTZ. Did they give a BL angle from Xuan Hui's side for Mei Si?? Coz he pauses everytime he's explaining Mei Si is my only...friend, and doesn't become a dragon because he's told he has wordly affairs in his heart, even gives up his life saving MS. But he also kept shipping MS and LTZ, so dunno, maybe that is also because he knows MS loves LTZ and finds his happiness in her. If yes, it was very subtle and wrapped, placed there only for those who want to assume it.
WZS died very abruptly, I wanted more of a consequential end for him. I also expected the final battle where the Changxi boy band and the Demon gang together fight against the final evil boss to last longer with more action scenes, but oh well they just used their powers together to deal with it. However finally, it was a HE for our leads with an endearing and heart-warming extra scene at the end which makes you feel warm and contented.
The novel was originally named something like "Mrs. Mei's Daily Life Doting on Her Husband", but in the show it was MZY who doted on his wife through out 😄
All the actors did an amazing job and XK & TXW were terrific! They showed so many facets of their acting so fitting for each aspect of their roles. Whoever says XK doesn't know how to act can go get their eyes checked, just the dying scene is enough to prove them wrong.
This show had everything you want to see in a drama; exceptional acting, extraordinary CGI and visuals, great direction, amazing BGM, good looking cast, wonderful backdrops and costumes, and it seemed to have all the different plots and tropes you can see in a drama's storyline - demons, comedy, mystery, romance, angst, history, horror, action, battles, tragedy, suspense, cultivation, investigation, tribulation, woman empowerment, jealousy, second and third CPs, love at first sight, lovers to enemies, amnesia, time travel, reversed roles, sacrifice, hinted BL (that's just a guess), incurable conditions that one lead hides from the other, role swaps etc. etc. and it was all so well-woven together that it still didn't feel like an overload. It did have it's flaws, but overall an awesome drama that you could rewatch a number of times, which in all fairness, deserves a rating of even 8.8-9.0 on MDL.
Ha! You're like the opposite of those people who have a 'closure problem', who have to finish something even if…
I have done that to some dramas, I couldn't continue, they went in the 'I'll complete them later' bin. Then, the same situation, I came across too many spoilers, yet I didn't remember much from the parts I'd already watched. So, I ended up never completing them. For some, I searched for the half hour story compliations on YouTube etc. and watched them to see the key elements of the plot and then bye bye, I'm done with that particular drama.

How many times is the ML played by Xu Kai going to be stabbed by his leading lady? 😭😭
The combination of XK and cats together always makes such adorable scenes, be it FIYS, ABAY or MR.
He's just so good with cats and so kind to animals in general. We've had BTS with rabbits, pigeons, horses, donkeys, dogs and maybe more.
I feel there is probably going to be a bit more explanation on the choice he made that night.
