If your region is in South East Asia, you can watch it using WeTV. They update everyday with subs. VIP has more episodes unlocked.

From what I have seen, this will be quite heavy drama. Perhaps you can wait until next week at the very least, and reading our comments here to know whether you will like it or not. I sense we will have a kind of forbidden love here. And it is quite slow burn.

I do agree that there are so many fluffy dramas out there, hahahahaha. I like this drama because:
1. I like Cheng Yi acting so I need to check this out
2. I like heavy drama like Nirvana in Fire and this drama reminds me of that
3. So far it is heavily ML centric (or at least quite balance between ML and FL). I am bored with those FL centric drama.

I am surprised seeing those low rating last night. And this morning, the rating already at 8.3, hahahahaha.

This is heavy palace and politic drama. Each character or faction has their own agenda and strategy. Even though lots of us here for Cheng Yi, for some of you this drama will not be palatable. Especially if you only looks for romance and fluff.

So far I like it. Watch all 6 episodes last night. I am looking forward to Qi Yan stratagem. I hope this drama has solid writing like Nirvana in Fire 1 and not just deux ex machine everything in the end.

Also regarding the loss opportunity of not focusing on Li Xuan, I see that Court Lady also makes the same mistake. I know Court Lady adaptation is pretty much following the novel so that means the novel also not focusing on ML. Still, Sheng Chu Mu is a very interesting character. I think I will skip FL scenes and watching ML instead.

I compared the story potential of this drama to ALP. It is unfortunate that the episodes number is so low and low budget as well. But story wise, it is quite good. If only they brushed more on Li Xuan background, his conflict with both clan. Youlian character also could be expanded for more, too. As it is, her character is bland and annoying. I had hope to see more of her distress being in the middle of her lover and her clan. How she also wish to protect Li Xuan from her clan.

From the very start, this should be the drama about the ML. Xu Kai character also shows up first in the opening song. Honestly, I am so bored of all those IP adaptation that focused more on FL. I am tired already with all FL distress and their need to always be pampered by males surrounding her. Why we women cannot protect the men? Indeed we are physically weaker, but we are stronger emotionally. Women can protect men in mentally way. But no, all drama is about pitiful damsel in distress. This is part of the reason I love ALP very much. Shang Gu and Bai Jue are equal. They can protect each other. Bai Jue needs to resort to trick in order to make himself the one who take on the tribulation instead of Shang Gu.

For once, please make a proper ML centric drama. Do I need to always looks for BL for getting this? BL has its own charm, but I can get bored with it , too.

Focusing more on the game is fine, since The King Avatar novel with much game focus is one of my favorite.

I am glad to hear that the novel has Tong Yao flirting. In the drama FL is so stiff and cold. I will finish Xu Kai drama watching first before starting my reading. There are lots of novel in my waiting list, hahahahaha. Will share with you my opinion later on!

Not yet. After Ancient Love Poetry, I went to FIYS, then to Dance of the Sky Empire. I am now watching Lingjian Mountain. Court Lady is next

Agree! Those skinny man looks so weak. And then they go to play as warrior?? So crazy .....

Their eyes need to be re-calibrated. I don't understand this love toward skinny man. Slender is different from skinny.

Those haters also called him fat in FIYS??? His body is perfect there. He looks so gorgeous as Lu Si Cheng.

His body figure in Ancient Love Poetry is suitable for playing as God of War. I hate to see those bone and skin young actor running around as general. My eyes ......

I hope he doesn't listen to hater too much. He has baby face which can make his face looks bigger on the camera and his styling as Bai Jue does not help. He looks better when he is Qing Mu and when he is in those black clothes.

Agree with you. It is so unfortunate. From the start when I heard the opening song, I could sense this drama would be quite heavy. Sad we only had 28 episodes. I think the story has huge potential, it is not losing to Ancient Love Poetry.

Li Xuan origin only brushed like 2 episodes ..... No respond or shock at all from Youlian regarding that which I found very odd. And there was no comment from their friend after their disappearance to secret realm. I plan to check the novel to see the complete story. Sigh .... One more reason that I like this because we finally have xianxia that focuses more on ML than FL. I do love Ten Miles, Ashes of Love, Love and Redemption, but honestly I am getting bored with all those FL centric drama. For once I want the drama focusing on the male side.

I can understand why Youlian is so guarded toward Li Xuan because of her master indoctrination. But, guarded does not mean manipulation is allowable. Also, the drama never resolve the mental scar on Li Xuan because Youlian indirectly causes his father death. I just don't think Youlian loves Li Xuan enough.

The novel is in my waiting list already. I am done with FIYS finally. It is good enough but I find myself wishing they put less focus on the romance. I know some people find this drama romance to be fluffy but I feel the love is too ML centric since the FL cannot express well. Thus, I wish they focus on the bromance instead, hahahahaha.

Yeah, The Legends messy edit (as far as I know) was caused by censor. The censor rejected the original edit (the one with bad ending). The drama should have ended with Li Chen Lan death and Zhao Yao waiting for his return.

This drama seems light on the surface. But I think the story is quite tragic and dark. It touches the dark part of human being; people in inferior position often feel distaste to those who have power, even though they in power do nothing to harm them. Unfortunately this drama is too short to dig more.

I find Li Xuan master to be unforgivable. He literally want to use Li Xuan against his own kind. I like how the drama handle this. But I don't like how the drama handle the Dragon Emperor. Li Xuan is of his own blood, his sister's son, his last living relative. How can he be so cold hearted toward Li Xuan is beyond my comprehension. Living in the secret realm is much better for him. Both human and Kunwu do not deserve him.

I have my own problem toward Youlian, too. I hate how manipulative she is. She dared to manipulate Li Xuan, using his love toward her for her own benefit. Whatever is her difficulties, there is a bottom line for everything. But Li Xuan loves her very much ...... so perhaps they living away from anyone that can incite Youlian is better for them both.

I am now watching Lingjian Mountain; just finished first episode. I like it so far ^^

Just finished this. Yes, I think the elder in secret realm heals her. But, it is better for them both to stay there. They can be together without anyone judge them. Moreover, I think the mortal realm has hurt Li Xuan enough. He deserves peace and calm.

Overall this is a good drama. I like it when Li Xuan power awaken. My disappointment is that the drama makes him weaker than Dragon Emperor. It is said that the hybrid will have supreme power. By right, Li Xuan should be the strongest character in the end. Sigh .....
Now, off I go to Lingjian Mountain

Glad to hear, hahahaha!

Yes, it was me in Douluo Dalu page. I was the one that create the specific discussion thread for novel reader that dissatisfied with the adaptation.

I have seen what a high budget Xianxia can do for CGI in Ancient Love Poetry. Hope to see the same in Agarwood. Well the trailer looks amazing already

Hope it can be like Ancient Love Poetry that was released after only one year after filming.
These days, Xianxia have a really good CGI. I hope this drama also has good CGI. Is this a high budget drama?

Seems there are lots of good drama aired in this year. I am so spoiled, hahahaha. Well, since this is a xianxia, we can only hope this drama to be aired in 2022 at the earliest.

How about releasing Meng Xing Chang An first?! Hahaha!
I really miss Cheng Yi acting

This drama looks very good. Cheng Yi is very suitable for costume drama, with long hair and those kind of clothing.
