I just finished this and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even the romance. I, like many of the other reviewer, prefer my revenge stories to be about a strong woman determined to right the scales of justice. And I disdain extraneous romance. But a romance angle isn’t in and of itself a bad thing. I recognize that there are a multitude of ways to advance a plot a many paths to redemption.
For me, had show forgone the romance in this story it would have been a massive miss. The leads have so much chemistry it overflows the room. Literally. It’s crazy how palpable it is. Also, their backstory, particularly Kiichi’s remorse and instinct to protect are the very definition of romance. He feels so deeply that he is ready to risk it all.
I really like this show. In fact…I’d like to see more like this.
I really appreciate that these cdramas, especially the xianxia, be letting us know in the first 10 secs of the intro that they are about to epically rock our world.
I LOVED it. Perfect ending tho I’m so sad for the the Zhou family .
Great story. Very little drag. Magnificent acting especially by my beloved Liu Xue Yi who I will be continuing to fantasize about every night when I go to bed. 💋😘
I do not thank Liu Xue Yi for making me question my own bottom line while watching him in this role. Even in ep 38, at his irredeemable worst, sneering as he suppresses his enemies….even then….even then I can’t help but find the man intoxicatingly beautiful 🙄
I’d like to thank them.

Such outstanding acting in this last ep.

I’ve become a cliche over this dude.
So provocative.
It’s different from the original but somehow very familiar.
