Again, it WASN'T the same street that was bustling. The one with the inn was empty that afternoon/evening (the INN was empty, the innkeeper was yawning his maw off). The bustling streets were those they BLOCKED with spelled water, so that the demon didn't get a chance to go elsewhere but would go to that particular part of the city where the inn is.
The next day - it's just before the festival, it's DAYTIME (no night-demon to brain-suck sleeping travellers) and then there were those cultivators around anyway. So the street might be more populated again.
One thing that is important to note. TTJ is without the devil bone. LSS has it. Everything he's able to do now,…
The Devil Bone was a must before, but it's not the only way to bring the DG around. The WEAPONS are recognising the Fetus, he already has the God-Slaying Crossbow inside, the Bone Refining Seal did some work on his heart, and his heart also still has the Soul-Destroying Nails in it. And hey did you notice the ADG can talk to him again, lately? Not even when he's too depressed and all that, but when the ADG feels like it...
How is it that in this timeline LSS mortal father only found her egg some decades back and sent her for reincarnation…
This is not wuxia (wuxia only has martial arts and maybe a contempt of physics, no immortals or anything).
The realms are separate in xianxia - the mortals, the immortals or gods, and the demons are usually in their own place on Earth (the whole planet speaks Chinese LOL) or underneath it, or in some separate plane of existence that is still connected to the actual mortal world. The mortals make it all complete. Everybody's fighting for the mortal plane LOL.
The time SCALES they're using in the gods or demons' realms are mindblowing. They'd be talking about things that happened some 40k thousands years ago like it was yesterday, while humans STILL live at most a century. So, from a god's perspective, we are fireflies. They'd consider themselves living at normal speed, while we are ephemeridae. Same goes for demons.
Which is to say, the time is measured the same, the scale is way, way different.
That also means (usually) gods and demons do not THINK the same way as mortals. They don't have the same concerns, and while xianxia makes use of them (usually through tribulations, or making them empathetic or enemies to mortals), it's not all of them but the Chosen One, LOL, who makes a bridge and understands the humans, and cares for them etc.
The wars in the Bo'Re Life actually did reach that kind of massive, epic, stage. I loved the wars. Finally a xianxia who could make it LOOK grand enough.
... This drama is really pushing all my buttons when it comes to grandeur and epic scenes, LOL.
I thought i missed some scene? how can NBY still alive after 500 years?
After TTJ went to the Nether River, the seals on the evil minions also broke and they started searching for the Evil Fetus (TTJ). Obviously they couldn't find him then, but they knew it was supposed to happen in the YiYue Tribe, so they attacked the tribe. NBY tried to fight them off and was defeated, and Si Ying decided not to kill him but keep him around until she could make use of him.
NBY cultivated a demonic path. He appears in ep 31 and 32 already, LOL, now he's appearing more.
Err, it's happening on different roads/parts of the city.
The inn LSS goes to is the only one that hasn't YET had a demon hit on the travellers ON THAT STREET (all the rest of them had attacks), so nobody goes there so that they don't become targets. Since the rest of the city doesn't seem affected, there are people around. And there's a festival going to happen soon, people would be around anyway, preparing.
TTJ breaks the dream after he was on some street in the city, around the crossroads they split. He took one of the three paths they left for the demon, so he fought it and got in the dream while still on the street. After waking he went to check on her and she's fine. They don't share the room (much to my annoyance LOL) so he has no actual reason to wait around.
A much better question is how come neither cares what happened to GYJW yet, LOL. Maybe since the demon is defeated, they imagine he's still looking and don't bother calling him back, or he's back and sleeping in his own room, and they also don't want him around. Still, it's morning by the end of the episode, I think GYJW will return with no memories of MN. Maybe.

Reading a lot of fantasy and scifi and even c-web novels helps a lot. I like transmigrations and time paradoxes are all over transmigration stories, LOL.

The two timelines aren't happening in parallel. When she went back the first time, she destroyed the original and started up the second one. (It's a confusing time paradox that allowed time to go all the way through until the sects' destruction but then set it back to 500 years ago to another path).
God tribulations don't happen in a liniar timeline either. Also, the phoenix (immortal) not being hatched yet has no real impact on when the tribulation (mortal life of the immortal being) is being set up in time. LSS decided YXW was her mortal version because it would explain, in her mind, why she got there (YXW is acting as an anchor) and why original YXW was a bitch - she was a complete psycho, thus LSS decided she must've been her evil side. The egg existing for those thousand of years would be enough for mortal tribulations to happen in that period.
Novel readers have mentioned this (failed) tribulation wasn't the only one, but one of about ten or something. Not relying on novel info, as this is the drama and has to be complete on its own, it's still a xianxia trope to have tribulations spread all over the place and time, basically unconnected to the immortal's life itself.
I'm not an expert though and haven't written this or other novel/drama either, so take this with a grain of salt, LOL.

Timeline 1: LSS gets sent back in time. Her origins in that version aren't explained BUT the war of gods and the Devil God had already taken place 10k years ago so Di Mian was already sealed in the Barren Abyss. It's very probable it went the same way the first time around - Leader Qu finds Di Mian and gets to raise the egg as thanks for being saved. The egg is older than 10k years in both timelines, too, LOL, because her mother, the Goddess of Space, died in the war.
Timeline 2: TL2 LSS had to go through tribulations to become a goddess in this life, but failed and was sent to the bottom of the Pool for ten years (basically failing the lightning tribulation means she's dead. Nobody expected her back.) TL1 LSS finished her mission, UNDERWENT and survived the lightning tribulation when she took the Bone, and got sent to the TL2 in place of that timeline's LSS.
I think PYZ went and had a talk with Ji Ze, to get all that info.
Hi Everyone!So I told myself I will try my best to wait for this to finish before I binge watch it straight because…
This drama is pure pain with a few bits of sweetness thrown in to emphasize the taste of pain. If it's a BE, it'll be earned. If it's a HE, the whole world will rejoice and thousands of doves will be released in its honour.
But everything is gorgeous and grand, from the two leads to the sets, the music, the battle scenes, EVERYTHING. This is a xianxia feast. Dive in!
You made me go look at it again - she's spreading water along the demon's way, dressed in the white dress, while holding her nose. That water stinks. I definitely can see why she would change out of the pink dress, LOL.
Just because the change of dress seemed important, LOL.
GYJW is third-wheeling so hard in the setting up the plan scene, LOL, even he realised it :D
They didn't have the same dream. Her dream was a database for Ye Mei, the only dream we saw enacted is TTJ's. She might not even be aware the info was stolen by the demon.
As for the lack of emotions... it's finally started to dawn on me, repeatedly, why she takes the Heartless Way. To not emote, at all if possible, or not much. From her POV, maybe she laid down waiting for the demon to show up, the demon didn't, but she got bored with waiting / woke up before she realised she's dreaming / asleep, and that's it.

We're not out of the woods yet.
See, still his fault! :D
I didn't read the novel, the drama DID show what was going on. I am kind of detail oriented though, sorry (well, most of the time) :(

Or at least that's what I saw.
GYJW doesn't even register on the obstacle scale, LOL.
