Yeah he is a copy paste of his grandfather....colonist mindset.

I'm not there yet. But it would be such a shame.

Season 2 or part 2 (however you wanna call it) does mean the continuation of a narrative, REGUADLESS of when it was shot. LYF being split is within definition.

If the whole drama was shown together, the second half would still receive the same criticism. AND even if it wasn't based on a novel, the criticism would still be the same.

XL and YaoLiu fans would still be jipped...the scenes sprinkled like confetti.

The writing and editing is unraveling poorly. Even the cinematography and film composition that was very meticulous in the first half is kinda of a** now too. The only upside is that the CGI is much better than season one.

It's okay...I think we don't need fight them anymore. XL is winning hearts like an epidemic...Even without the lovers bugs, we all know that XY loved XL romantically first. YaoLiu will go down in history as an iconic drama couple equivalent of Condor Heroes, and the music will bring back Xiang Liu, Xiao Yao, and YaoLiu nostalgia.

And hardcore YaoJing ALWAYS have some excuse for denying the YaoLiu loveline. At least YaoLiu know XY loved Jing too...and even though, we could careless about him, we understand why XY ended up with.

XL Nation is very dominant and there are more YaoLiu fans. But not all XL fans are YaoLiu fans. Many of us are solo shippers.

Have fun Nath! Looking forward to the viral post where you steal a standee!

There are still cultures that practice marriage between cousins. I always feel that it is also microaggressively rude to ick out on someone's else cultural practice even it's wrong in a biological and scientific way. To them, it has been normalized for socioeconomic and familial reasons. Before icking out on it, we need to understand why it was practice in the first place...and it is not entirely because the culture is backwards or barbariac. It's unfortunate that people donun't derstand or refuses to understand this. 🥹

The current crown prince and princess of Cambodia are first cousins (thier dad's are brothers), which is even a more rare practice...whereas first cousins in CX and XY case (cousins between a brother and sister) is more a common practice.

Since I'm kinda lazy to explain this...here's a Chatgpt answer for you. I have a love one who acts exactly like XY when it comes to relationships, I've seen it in action. Watching XY was reliving the PTSD in my life with magic and beautiful sceneries. lmao.

"Yes, a savior complex can develop from childhood trauma, including PTSD, abandonment, and neglect. When children experience these kinds of traumas, they often feel powerless and out of control. To cope, some may develop a savior complex, where they feel a compulsive need to "rescue" or "fix" others. This behavior can stem from:
1. Desire for Control: After experiencing helplessness, taking on a savior role can provide a sense of control and purpose.
2. Seeking Validation: Helping others can be a way to gain approval and feel valued, counteracting feelings of worthlessness from neglect or abandonment.
3. Reenactment of Trauma: Trying to "save" others can be a way to reenact and possibly resolve their own unresolved trauma.
4. Avoidance of Own Pain: Focusing on others' problems can be a way to avoid dealing with their own painful emotions and memories.
Therapy and self-awareness can help individuals understand these patterns and develop healthier ways to cope and interact with others."

Sorry 😂🤣😅 replying to multiple threads. (ಥ﹏ಥ)

First of all, don't you dare accuse me of such a thing or put words in my mouth. Lol. You don't know me. I foremost have a love for complex characters and world-building. I have a love for character-led stories and have always found intrigue in more nuanced characters, regardless if they are protagonists or antagonists.

I'm sorry that your love of film and literature is so narrow that you would accuse people who find characters of all spectrums interesting, just because they are the antithesis of a pathetic plot device like Jing.

FFYY's character arc is far more interesting than XY's in so many ways, if you aren't so blinded by your narrow definition of good and evil.

I extend condolences to your narrow mind. May it find peace.

Condolences to your narrow and limited mind in the world of DaHuang. I will burn incense to the ancestors to forgive you for your lack of understanding of complex character building. RIP.

hahahaha....

I don't care about Jing...from FFYY pov, Jing existence threatened her. She has every right to protect her existence.

How is it odd? If the story was written from FFYY point of view or even Xingyue point of view, XY would have been the villain. XY threaten FFYY way of life, while XY's family invaded and conquered Xingyue family, and forced her to live in fear all her life.

Okay....i wrote a novel. hahahaha

Hahahaha....kkkk....you have a point! lmao. But I am a story first, character second...so I love XL, I want all his scenes to move the story not stalled it.

I can private message you....if you want the tea. lmao.

FFYY acted in the way that best guaranteed her survival in a world ran by men. She displayed filial piety and loyalty to the wrong person, and it led her on the wrong path. And when the time comes, she will have her revenge--"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." Her character arc is far better than XY.

FFYY is a complex villain...it's incredibly hard character to portray. The actress nailed it...and so did TH adaptation of her.

FFYY loved the wrong man, so all her efforts went to fruitless things...if she had loved the correct man, she would be such a baddie.
