Not random because you said "As a Christian it's upsetting to watch this kind of stuff" which you had just explained was demons and demon lore. A simple question would have been "I was wondering why there are a lot of cdramas with demon lore?" Anyways, as an actual answer to your question, this is ChatGPTs reason: "Demon lore is prevalent in xianxia because it symbolizes chaos, imbalance, or the corruption of natural order, aligning with Daoist and Buddhist dualities like yin and yang or samsara. These beings often embody inner struggles, karmic debts, or forbidden power, enriching moral complexity. Traditional Chinese mythology features demons as both antagonists and misunderstood entities, which xianxia adapts for dramatic tension. Their presence also allows for intense cultivation arcs, where characters grapple with temptation, transformation, and redemption."
Can someone tell me why demons are so rampant in Chinese Xianxias? What’s the lore. It’s upsetting as a Christian…
I've never seen a Christian in a historical cdrama or xianxia. Maybe stick to European shows if other lore and religions make you uncomfortable? (Not sure why you're so upset though, since there are demons, possession by the devil, etc in Christianity too ...)
Late 90's tween/teen vampire series with early-mid 90's level cgi to boot. At least we'll maybe get a glimpse…
I love J & G as a pairing, whether BL or not. They are so funny irl & hopefully get to show that in this series... The plot kinds reminds me of a BL Twilight, 😆. Don't get me wrong, I'm seated for this show all the way! But the CGI 😶🌫️ lol
