The secondary love story between the demon princess and her body guard are a bit of a distraction. it's a sweet story, but shouldn't have gotten as much screen time as it did. I also skipped a bunch of the scenes relating to demon politics. you can pick i back up around ep 50 if you feel it's too draggy.

Yes! Watch it.

RY revoked XF's status as a god, so he can't go back to heaven. He'll have to day in the underworld.

OMG I loved those scenes too! It was so refreshing to see him being flirty and silly after that super intense emotional fight scene with JM.

TV version is 63 eps. You tube has the TV version. DVD version is 60 eps.

XF has been wallowing in self pity since he came back to life. I agree his brain didn't come back with his body. What a dumb bird!

I take what I said back. JM does not deserve this level of suffering! These last couple of eps has gotten me so made about XF/SH displaying affection in front of JM. She should pluck SH's feathers and roast her for dinner.

In ep 50 when she gets the final ingredient for the pill to save XF

I love the scenes where Yang Zi is beating up Deng Lun in the bts. ^_^

The book has XF as 15,000 years old. RY is a bit older than him, but I don't remember reading how old. In the drama, the Empress takes RY up to the Heaven Realm before she has XF.

I'd lose all respect for the writers if they let XF go through the marriage ceremony thinking that he's marrying SH...

I agree that RY's character in the first half was very lovable, given his quiet sweet nature. After today's eps (55&56), I think that JM should kick XF to the curb. RY is so much more caring and attentive as a lover. XF has too much pride and is completely stupid since his rebirth.

Doesn't it just make him more of a jerk to do all those horrible things when he already knew everything? In the book, he didn't torment as much as he's doing in the drama.

Ikr! I can't believe that XF was callous enough to use JM's petal to create a gift for SH! Plus he tried to destroy the Phoenix Hair Pin in a previous scenes. Getting really apparent that he's got an over-developed sense of entitlement. What a spoiled little boy! You're so right about the two brothers lashing out at the world. Poor JM is caught in the cross fire.

Good point! I hadn't thought of that

Hehehe... I can tell you're really into the show. ^_^ I'm pretty pissed at XF for being so completely blind to how horrible his parents are, despite RY telling him the truth. I mean how many people does his mother have to kill?!? And it very obvious he's using SH to get back to JM. Despite how witchy SH is, that's just not fair to the girl to keep leading her on.

I think that you're right about them getting back together at some point before the big war. JM is wearing all black in that scene, which makes me think that she's left to Heaven Realm. Only six more eps to go...

I agree. JM deserves all the angst after XF came back to life. The pacing is still good. However, I'm so disappointed they got rid of the steamy love scene JM and XF had in the Demon realm and instead made it super tame (ep 53).

I haven't read the novels. Do you know where I can find the English translations?

Yes, I think that's a great idea.
