I liked it. In a word, it's a great series. Does it have flaws? Of course it does. But it's a very compelling story, and the filming is done to match it. The actors are good, the director is good, the costumes are good, the fight scenes aren't bad, they could have been better. It's a low-budget series, so I don't want to criticize it too much. However, the subject matter and its delivery are well done. I liked it.

I don't want to go into details. It tells the story of a girl sold by her father who escapes and joins a group of assassins. It also touches upon the conflicts between the states of the time.

I started watching it wondering if it would be very bloody because of the title, but it wasn't like that. There is blood, of course. But not as much as one might expect, considering the title. There are many fight scenes. There's excitement. There's love. There's interest. There's jealousy. There's enmity. Everything is there.

Some mistakes in the fight scenes were noticeable. Some makeup variations were striking. There were nonsensical things. I don't want to go into those details to avoid making it too long. These negative aspects and the deviation from reality were the main flaws. Yes, this is a film. It's fiction. It's not authentic. However, the viewer shouldn't dismiss something that isn't real. Some effort should be made in that direction. It can't just be a hasty, "I wrote it, and it's done." It's an adaptation of a novel. That's why it's interesting and good. It could have been much better. I liked the actors. I really liked Li Yi Tong, one of the lead actors. I've watched many of his dramas and I like him. I watched Qu Chu Xiao in this drama; I hadn't seen her before. She was quite reasonable and very suitable for this role. I liked her. Wang Duo was better than I expected. He was emotional, angry, and aggressive. He did his role very well. But his ability to act as if he could see while blind is a bonus. I really liked Jill Hsu. I think she gave a fantastic performance; I think she deserved an award. Well done. I also really liked Li Zi Feng. He was very, very good. Well done. Zhou Yu Xi also tried, even surpassing herself in some parts. I really liked Yin Zhu Sheng. I really liked Si Xua Ding. Well done. The acting was good. I liked it. I recommend it to those who enjoy this type of film.
