ShortCircuit

Geography and lack of time/opportunity bite, though. Otherwise I'd be spending all my free time in Hengdian and/or other scenic views I've seen in so many dramas...

They're both adults, and I should hope they both eventually find a SO, get married, maybe even have kids, etc. Even if they don't marry each other LOL (they do have great chemistry together, but that's just a bonus for any dramas they act in together). (I mean, China has 1.5 BILLION people, there should be plenty of fish in the sea around there, enough for everybody :D)

What, are they supposed to be a real-life cp? They were together in Love is Sweet too, they're friends.

I am interested in the drama's cp, not the actors' relationships, LOL. Though obviously I'd rather they should be friends and have a nice experience during filming instead of being awkward with each other (particularly if the drama involves some romantic scenes, too).

Also, Chinese people address each other as jie-jie/mei-mei (big sister/little sister) or ge-ge/di-di (big brother/little brother) all the time, and aunt/uncle, etc. (even if they don't know each other, LOL). It's a cultural thing.

The nightmare ep's sub made it look like his (homonym) name was Jin as in "cinder/ember", because his father burned the auspicious names list to a cinder. No idea how it was spelled though, since there are so many homonyms written differently in Chinese. But it sure did sound kind of poetic.

C-webnovels have certain words to describe a type or a setting so that you would expect them to behave a certain way.

Like "white moonlight" is the dream lover of everyone, the perfect irresistible angel, impossibly lovely etc. So "black moonlight" is the opposite, LOL.

As to why is he holding a BE script... well, The novel this drama is based on supposedly has two endings. I haven't read it yet since a fan TL isn't finished and the MTL doesn't make much sense, but I did read some half-spoilers and it looks like a BE might still be in the cards. We'll see.

In the future (original setting, when TTJ-as-Devil-God destroys the sects and everything else, there is no moon in the sky 'cause the sky is always covered.

So I guess - once TTJ is gone, the moon will be back?

Why would he need to spend time with his tribe?! He doesn't know any of those people. They showed up out of nowhere (some of them having already betrayed him to his brother's trap) and don't deserve any recognition beyond a staple clan relationship, in which they stand to gain the most if TTJ becomes the ruler of the country.

As to why he's now the king - well, he's the only heir officially left (so far). And since the Sheng Empire immediately attacked, he's also the only one who can go to war and lead the armies against the aggressor. Even if the ministers STILL didn't want him as king, who else would have the authority to go defend the country?!

So postpone it until you have time, or just skip it. There's no "required to watch" drama anywhere in the universe.

For what it's worth, this one really does look like it's going to end up being a great xianxia drama, IMHO.

He's needed to move the plot along (in place of another prince of the Tantai Clan who would have been introduced in the story out of the blue). So... magic?... :D

That's what they want, though. A flame war, something to use in order to cast a shadow on everybody watching this drama. Something "other" drama's viewers wouldn't do, because they're "better".

I've seen provocations like these in other dramas comment sections, and the instigators are always playing the victims for no reason at all, twisting each and every word anyone tried to use in order to reason with them.

It's no use. Don't bother. It's not the kindergarten court here. Let them be the adults they imagine themselves to be, and let's all move on.

You - I like you. Yes, let's be entertained. Life's already boring, let's just enjoy whatever fun there is to be found :)

Don't bother, these two accounts are (again) trying to stir things up when everybody else is already moving on from the YTer's comments.

ESH, let's agree and leave it be. Inflammatory comments like these, pretending to be oh-so-high-above the rest of us mere mortals are the height of hypocrisy and just make this place less savoury.

They definitely combined the characters. Xiao Shun Yao (playing MingLan) is also rising, he was an important support chara in The Blue Whisper, so why not use him if he's already known? Adaptations always combine and switch some things to smooth out the plot anyway.

Immortality referrence LOL. Here's hoping that drama comes next :D

Yeah well, let's just say my BFF knows all the FMVs of TU that I like and her whatsapp is receiving links for YT to MVs to TTEOTM now LOL. *ahem*

She DID like some of them :D

Most people forget their own dreams immediately upon waking. They are their own persons, and know it was all a dream... some feelings linger, but it's not their own feelings.

TTJ is not Ming Ye, there's no relationship (and MY's face is not the same as TTJ's. The Devil God has TTJ's face because TTJ will be the sacrifice / vessel for the DG to return.)

MY has no soul, he's a god, so when he's gone, he's gone forever, no reincarnation.

TTJ acted as MY in the dream, but it was a warning / prophecy (and it gave LSS two of the three needed items to deal with the Devil Bone). TTJ himself is not evil (YET) but he does have the Devil Bone and his body will be the Devil God after TTJ dies.

Now you know she can be biased (which is her own right) and maybe take everything with a grain of salt in the future, no matter who is presenting their opinion as unbiased constructive criticism. We are who we are.

Go on novelupdates and read the intro to the novel there. It's spoiled in the first paragraph, LOL.

And there's a MV of Sa Ji's Mystic Bird (the MV calls it Immortal / Mysterious Bird, it's the Xuan Niao) where the after the event scene is shown too.

I've no problem with valid criticisms and I won't lie, I don't care if they're the most professional criticisms either BUT I am not a critic and I love what I love.

But I've just replied to someone who was acting grossed out that the leads are too far apart in their ages, as he's way too old for her, while at the same time they (the commenter) had rated 10 at least three dramas with double the age differences between the leads. Don't tell me it's all unbiased, innocent opinions. They have the right to their own opinions obviously... but the hypocrisy is glaring at times.
