Pretty sure it's Bai Lu's own voice, as is the ML

Yeah every now and then I had to pause and go get water because some of things I read had me sit up and exclaiming WTF to myself.

Some of the things ML went through, I would not wish it on my worst enemy.

There's constant angst, dread, eternal regret and misunderstandings with no second chance to make amends.

Sit tight and take a deep breath if you plan to follow this series.

You should read the novel, the drama is amazing but it's toned down a lot and slightly changed. You won't understand the amount of abuse and suffering male lead went through without reading the novel.

With all the abuse he went through, no wonder he became what he is. Why should he forgive the world which has never shown him an ounce of kindness.

If you can, download the youku app on your tablet or phone, you can watch at 1080p up to 6 episodes and 2 new ep updates per day.

Youku is a smaller company compared to IQIYI and tencent wetv so it's good to support them.

And even this is toned down. In the novel he suffered from the moment he was born

Yeah that's the only complaint I have so far from the trailer, in the novel there were at each other's throat constantly, they both would have killed each other without hesitation in the early half if they could.

There are two endings, i cant tell you which one the series will follow

There are two endings, not clear which one the series will follow

I know but the machine translation is a mess and all the beautiful moments will be lost in it

Im actually South East Asian and we have our own flying Apsaras but Chinese interpretation is just especially beautiful

If you like dunhuang, watch this dance video

It's getting a revival in china and getting more and more popular

No the above link is machine translated. Read this instead

Im surprised a lot of people know about Dunhuang murals, even in china it hasn't been long since Dunguang got a revival and flying apsaras became a popular dance genre.

Yep a lot of misunderstandings and NO second chances.

Imagine the most tragic Xianxia romance you've previously seen and at least double the angst.

First time seeing flying Apsaras in Xianxia, that alone has me hyped.

Yep yep lmao, IM OBSESSED with flying Apsaras im so happy they went back to classic chinese mythology aesthetics instead of borrowed elements from western fantasy.

It's more of a middle ground between Wuxia and Xianxia than classic Wuxia.

Wuxin is just too powerful and too smart to be his personal guardian, a lot of plot points would be easily resolved if Xiao Se has Wuxin by his side all the time.

If you want the same level of loveable and very well developed characters around a smart MC, with better written political intrigue but less well choreographed fight scenes, watch: Sword Snow Stride.

I'd say Sword Snow Stride has a more coherent plot but Blood of Youth has much better fight scenes. I'd give Blood of Youth (8/10) and SSS (8.5/10) on IMDB scale(9/10 on this scale would be close to perfect). If the director and writers of the two series come together to make a drama, it'll be a masterpiece.

If you want a more romance-centric series, watch Who rules the World, I give it (6.5/10) however.
