I'm behind, ep 25, Fu Lang's parents, I'm crying ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ this is the third tragic/sad ending for side couple…
I really loved how they gave the older couple a decent amount of screentime. I thought it was kind of unusual for this kind of drama and it was really touching to hear their love story. It fleshed out the characters and empathize and mourn the loss to the Fu family.
Just completed Ep 27. Mind. Blown. This show is so good. So good.
So NXY is the High Fate Divinity and the Book of Fate is His!! Chaos and Fate were eternal friends, two origin divine beings and were companions for eons until 10K year ago when Pearl made the decision to love XXC/ZM and Fate went into the mortal realm as well. That is why he is so obsessed with her! I have no idea where this is going now and I love it!
I also loved how this was the happiest of ending for the world but not for our ML. He's willing to gamble it all for MXL because of love. Ah these two, so crazy.
So I think NXY was the one standing next to Divine Pearl/MXY in that flashback/illusion. My theory is that XXC and NXY are the pieces of souls that came to the human world which is why they were both born with more perceptions than others. Also he had powers of divinity before his stepbrother attacked him.
The happy ending I hope is that NXY goes back to wherever in the Divine Realm being aloof and doing Divine Clan stuff and the ML and FL get a HE together. NXY is such a complex and interesting character that I don't want him to get permanently destroyed at least get a bittersweet ending.
I wonder if they knew, when filming this, that it would be a solid Xianxia.Midnight Mystique sadly doesn't hold…
I am watching both but I tend to agree that I really look forward to this show's new episodes versus the other shows. For me, I wonder if MM is not as intriguing because the roadmap for that show is already known, where they need to at least go through 5 sub-arcs for each of the contemplations and so it's somewhat predictable until the FL gets the fully powered stone but I have no idea what is going to happen with this show because there are some twisty things happening.
Episode 23-24 I love love this show. The way it tied up SQ story, how every one, from the "hero" to the "villain" are so gray and their worst enemies are not one-dimensional villains but everyone's deceitful natures. The chickens are coming home to roost and the actors are doing such a good job.
Ep 22...omg what kind of monkey's paw immortality is this?? I think this is the first time showing anything about the Divine Clan and I'm uncertain whether they are entirely good. I wonder if they just hate humanity because of the war and this is how they torment the few that come their way. The story of Qian Guang and Feng Xiang was just so sad.
I am trying to catch up on the episodes (on 18 now) and it is so hard because NOTHING is skippable in this show. This show is so riveting and the revelations are unexpected. Also it seems even the "baddies" seem to have layers and not one dimensional. Unfortunate that this came out when it did since I believe it would have had much more acclaim if it was judged only on its work.
Man, oh man, 2ML... you shady dude. When ML asked him point blank if anything else was suspect and he went 'nope'…
This SML is interesting. He seems to be missing something. Like he's a sociopath, needing to analyze if his feelings are fear, love, etc. It makes me wonder if he was always like this because he could divine the future at one point or whether his emotions broke when he was attacked and lost his perceptions. He seems driven by finding new and interesting things and experiences. It is not hard to see why he would eventually take a darker path because MXL is the one who evokes the strongest emotions for him.
I did not expect that guy to be Bao's dad. But this makes sense as to why he's working for them since he is married to a Spirit Clan person so he wants to bring about changes. But it also looked like the Fu family knows him? So why didn't they recognize him at the Snow City gathering I wonder. 🤔
The conversation in ep. 9 was hilarious 😂Xuan Ling: Mr, Xie, your bed breaks to easily. Next time, get a sturdier…
This is also one of my favorite scenes as well! Her absolute smug and unrepentant expression as he outlines her faults and his small smile when the elder says she's a bad influence. The bed part just sealed the whole thing.
So the FL and SFL are half sisters? San Qi is the FL's father and that cultivator that was killed by the ML is…
I'm not sure whether SFL's mom could hide a pregnancy and then marry again and then have another kid but maybe SQ and her already had Mu Xuanling beforehand. It is also possible both may be SQ's kids (twins?) since it sounds like SFL's mom married the leader of Moonlight Heights really quick after betraying SQ and cutting off his arm. Since they said SFL's mom died while giving birth to her, she must have been killed by her husband Gao right after to somehow "nourish" the Chaos Pearl because she has some kind of special celestial body. Anyway this kind of explains why her sister is super bitter about all of this and displacing the blame wholly on Sang Qi.
Mu Xuan Ling is quite a seductress! Sun Zhen Ni does a great job being FL.
But not just that, she can also be earnest, proud, empathetic and truly love to the point of self-sacrifice. She is charming and can seduce people but she is also honest with herself and what she wants which makes her likable and the actress is doing a great job portraying it. As just an audience she has that je ne sais quoi that makes me want to root for her.
They are probably twins and dad is probably Sang Qi. The age seems about right, since both seemed about 10 when Moonlight Heights got attacked. I would guess one came out more Spirit Clan and the other more Human. Maybe Sang Qi recognized her as his daughter so he spared her and brought her back to the Dark Abyss or feels "something" for Mu Xuling because he went through a lot in my opinion to bring her back alive.
I didn't understand one thing..the power of desireless stone from bai lu revived everyone affected with nether…
My understanding was that his final pleading to give his life for his city was actually answered by the heavens (unknowingly through his daughter) and that this was his sacrifice freely given so he would not be able to return.
