Interesting. We will see. Forgot about the eunuch. Why do I get a feeling the eunuch, officer Liu, Qin and older Qi bros are part of a network of hidden power. The oldest sickly bro looks Sus with his convo with his brother and father in ep 25-26.

Yea, I’m wondering too. I don’t believe they died so easily

Oh my goodness, good point about the altar flipping! And the great flood. I heard that there was actually evidence of a great flood from various accounts. So this idea of a do over can be traced to history? Imagine xianxia and real history.

Yes! absolutely love the open discussion and respect even when we have our different takes on characters. No hate and mud thrown at each other (for the most). I appreciate the time you guys spend to help me untangle all the details! The subs go by so fast sometimes.

Well put! Not just a cash cow drama.

NXY is the human form of TM. It’s a bit different than TM just like how MXL is different from Pearl.

LoL - seriously, everyone’s suffering because of him.

Yes, there are bigger shinier dramas with large fan bases airing right now. However, this drama is pretty good! I’m also enjoying Under the Moonlight which is an excellent drama without a large fan base.

Yes - such a delicate well woven story. I have grown to sympathize for the magistrate I and his predicament and to warm up to the silly carefree impulsive ML

Liu wan too? Interesting.

Ok guys - I am enjoying this drama so much, I spent the time to write a review of it. It doesn’t have the visibility of the other current running dramas but really deserve more viewership.

Glad to see you here. This drama has me sucked in like Blossom.

I read somewhere that he did an excellent job in the Untamed. That one one of the first c-dramas I watched but I don’t think I can rewatch it. Way too long and the villian reveal was not great - too stereotypical for my taste.

Ep 26 - is so packed and ends with more mysteries….

We have the festive lantern festival displaying all the beautiful crafts - candy making, noodle pulling, cakes, puppetry, dragons, drums, lanterns. What a beautiful vibrant scenery with the hope of love in the air.

Also, the music and sound e effects are so perfectly timed. At 35 min, moment she mentioned how fleeting the beauty and splendor of the world fades, the fireworks in the sky dies down.

That chess match gives us a hint of powerful figures possibly involved in her parents murder. Every word they say and the moves of their chess pieces have meaning behind them. They both took part in the confession of Xu Biao. These two are scary.

Then we have the mystery at the end - how can someone who loves 💰so much turn her down? Definitely, someone very powerful in the shadows….

I’m so hooked on this excellent storytelling.

Ep 24 - 25 this new villian is super creepy and scary. I am very worried for her.

On a side note, her white fur collar is so beautiful. The costuming in this series has been a pleasure to see.

My guess is she had to pretend she didn’t love him (since it was forbidden) so that he would not evaporate forever. 10k years is still not forever.

never paid attention! thanks for pointing this out. I do feel that dangers are in the horizon.

Yup - get read for a ride. There been a LOT of active discussion on our 2ML. It's been fun. haha.

Yes - it gets better as he grows.

I was annoyed at first but seeing his background, I view it as his inexperience and his upbringing. Youngest in a wealthy family of three boys where the older borthers take care of everything and he doesn’t have a care in the world. He has romanticized ideas of the world, of being a hero, and protecting a girl for all the novels he read. He has no real life skills. But I can see that he’s slowly learning and growing after going through more cases with her.
