I know right... WHERE do we find that song?! Does anyone have the link? I couldn't find in the OSTs. Especially the scene when he shields her from the rocks in episode 21 (am I right... )

Agree they really did a lot more for the characters then the novel did in some respects :) In any case, both the novel and the drama were fantastic!

Totally agree with and the adaptations fleshed out stuff and made some comedic or dramatic moments. I can now read the novel with them in my mind for all time.. I liked the novel but it was not epic for me. The drama on the other hand deserves to be in one of the top drama for all times (at least for xianxia for sure) Plus the leads .. omg ... I cannot imagine anyone else but them now for the characters!

I think Yang Mi has a new drama coming out. They pushed back the opening (so i hear) because they didnt want to fight head on with this drama (Didnt want a ratings fight)... I did really like her in the Ten Miles but I also didn't like her in others... so its going to be interesting. That new drama is also based on a novel I believe.

ZLY on the other hand might not be doing any more xianxia.... she has moved to other modern and challenging roles so unless the script is a really good one, it might not be easy to see her in another.

But well with this mega hit for both leads, I am sure there are people who will clamour to offer other productions to them. I can only hope they work together again!!

It is based on a novel that is straight forward. It is at its heart a love story between 2 leads and their growth together. It can seem slow at parts and there are no messy complicated issues. I would suggest just trying it out and see if you can get to episode 8 and then decide. The first arc is 'slow' but required. Me who doesn't like xianxia actually loved it. But I don't enjoy the 'usual xianxia' genre.

Watching should be fun. Don't force yourself just because some of us are mad about it.

Yeah I think some fans think he has started to feel real affection for her.. but I think knowing him as a "supporter" of both of their and their love story, it seems more like that he is also sad about her losing him and still wrapped up in the loss. He was also sad when Shen Li "died" and XZ was all distraught.... so possibly the same kind of feel there... But well we presume!

Cannot be helped, honestly this is not the genre I would normally watch. So this was an exception for me. So I can appreciate that not everyone likes it. And the pacing is also one thing that I had to push through initially (although I did like it from the start) but saying that there is a lack of chemistry is a bit too much... I have seen too many where the chemistry is soo forced... especially for the xianxia type.... (no hate but i couldnt get into Blue whisper or ancient love poetry - and I actually am ok with both leads from both dramas)

I did! :)

Have you watched the entire series? They do kiss for longer. But I think both actors are not known to have many kissing scenes in their dramas... they dont "practise" much hahahhaha

I think its tough to get into netflix.... we can only hope

I think there is no change.. typically hairstyle changes are for colouration to depict grief or weakness like XZ when he was first "reborn"

Yeah wonder how to get netflix to notice!

I think the adaption to drama is brilliant plus the comedic parts that the novel did not have... excellent piece of work..... already started to rewatch from the start again.... hahahahha I dont have the heart to follow another drama as yet!

I know right... so strange!

Exactly XZ is so epic .. and LGX did such a great job.

it truly deserves a 9 at least i think... but we are stuck on 8.7

I think the costume, production and music were all brilliant... not sure if its because Liying is the producer!

Is it too much if I rewatch the last few episodes and then start from the beginning again.

Yes Absolutely wonderful. Loved it to bits.. Now to rewatch everything AGAIN... and maybe a few more times! :) At least ending it again when the show officially ends next week for most of the people.

I cried buckets..... but the return is beautiful.. and on my word does XZ (LGX) look good with white hair and that glance back at her..... *AH.. worth every tear*
