I think this drama was (1) over edtied to pass review or (2) it's just don't know where to go with the plot(1)…
Went through 2 censorship cuttings and some redubbing so as far as I can tell, from being a novel reader, they cut "Vampire" (removed most scene of blood drinking and the history of vampires), threw in that opener with 3 star shards to explain the vampire powers and future powerful vampires characters. Then removed Japanese details/japanese propaganda/missions, because villain Li is a Chinese traitor and working for the Japs. In first ep he was exposed as working for the japs ,so he wanted to kill ML. Then since exposed, he publicly worked for the japs, and so wanted to work with the ML. The parts he takes over businesses, hes forcing them to hand over chinese busineses to the japanese. But they make it so hes just a mean bully businessman.
They keep cutting things like any scenes to drinking blood and any mention or scenes of Japanese. Since the drama went through two censorship revisions and some re-dubbing, some eps are shorter as scenes got cut.
I love the way they styled him. That hair braid, his hats, his traditional cheongsam with the western coats. Yes…
I hope the drama will spin something, because of censorship they toned down the Vampire thing. In the book, they're pure vampires, so there was no star shards or powerful families, so the brother being Situ is simply that.
I enjoyed the episodes overall, but the kissing/feeding scene felt flat because it seemed contrived and lacked…
Honestly think they censor cut it. There was a scene in Ep 1 (after Weilian saves SZH) that seems to cut of him giving him blood when he says he's starving.

They got separated really young, like ages 10 & 14, and over 100 years ago.
Weilian only got close to him 3 years ago, and hasn't exposed his powers, plus they can eat human food (until recently our ML cannot after his injuries), so theres no way to tell, I guess.

Yes they're hinting hard Weilian is his brother.
