Probably the quickest drop

This is probably the quickest that I ever dropped a drama .. just 2 episodes in and I knew I won't be able to tolerate this till the end. Watching third episode was already test of patience.
Reasons this didn't worked out for me:

1) lead characters are not inspiring enough : the big fat bully Male lead who forced the demon lord fella to give his core even when clearly demons were the first ones to suffer.. I have zero to negative affinity for such protagonists.. he borrowed the power of FL divine fire and bullied the third party .. I mean what's next , giving him nobel peace prize for this? .
The FL character is equally bogus .. she has absolutely no say in anything ..whosoever takes her power for their use ..she literally like the stinky towel wrestler use after each rounds to wipe them off.

2) main cast : I don't know if the character disappointed me more or the cast .. not a fan of yun long nothing about his acting or looks fancy me ..just not my type. He is old enough yet his acting is so mediocre, I mean what's his excuse ?? there are so many actors like geng xin ( lead from legend of shen li) who are about his age but you can clearly see the difference in quality of their performance.
Female lead was fine . though over shadowed by the sizzling guest appearances.


3) A big bouquet of popular faces but plot was not doing any justice , looks like they spent all budget on cast and no allowances remain to hire a good writer .

4) I watched till ep 3 but I already knew this show is going to have an unnecessarily long list of characters.. well I don't mind if the story is good .. but I cant say that for this one.

And let’s be real—if I pushed through two more episodes, I’d find five more reasons to ghost this drama, so why waste the brain cells?

Will i ever be revisiting this ?

Hell No .. I will chose watching something like moonlight mystique tenth time with eating plain oats over watching this even once.

PS: 3 out the 3.5 star rating I gave, goes to ming hao ..boy saved the day for me ❤️
