battleaxe

the actress couldn't really bring sheng qing ru to life but I still liked a fl who stuck to doing things her own way till the very end. I also liked watching the ml be a marshall not only in name but also in deed, and they were passionate when the scenes demanded it. (no kisses until towards the end though). there are plot holes - don't even bother, and the fl and 2ml seemed to have more screen time than the main cp towards the end, despite all that and the sad ending, I would still recommend.
the 2nd and 3ml actors should get their own dramas. for the 2ml he earned it, and for 3ml the baby jiang, i'm trying to see something.

so he's throwing childish tantrums and verbally abusing her just bc he's jealous? and she's the one apologizing? I knew that whole stick by his side and serve him loyally until he dies premise would be a problem . just another excuse to turn yet another powerful fl into a doormat for love 🙄 🙄

I saw that a'xue actress exactly once many years ago in Nothing Gold Can Stay (pause for sob 😭) and I still recognized her when I saw her here although I couldn't immediately place it

zheng ye cheng omg!!! hiii 😍😍😍

I am a huge fan of small town stories so this drama is REALLY hitting the spot right now.
bonus points - no ceos, and that lovely village nestled in the middle of those breath taking mountains eughh I almost think I should meditate!

when the sis in law tried to get some of the food in episode 3 and the ml told her to go eat inside💀💀💀 I had to pause bc I almost fainted out of second hand embarrassment omg 🫣🤣

😊😊😊I just looove that her dramas are stumbling all over each other to be released. this mainly happens to the men so it makes me so happy for her!!

hmm see I knew they had potential. that other drama they did together wild rose stifled all their chemistry with its dry story but not this one. tbh its rare for ljl to not have any chemistry with his fls so

girl you've been with that man for three years!! not only has he not found you even one clue, he keeps abusing you every night omg time to sit up!! ah but she said she's never left that place before so she's a proper village girl, can't really blame her tbh

so I don't actually ship the leads together, or maybe its more idc if they get together or not. they have a very comfortable chemistry and a steady rapport but romance? eh. i'm more interested in the ml's ultimate goals and if he will relent (he's already cracking) and if the FL can stop him or not and when she's gonna get back to her realm and figure out wtf is going onnn with her damn jiejie and her ghost boyfriend

yuanzhong is so Thanos coded lmaoooo. look he's even going around gathering spirits the same way Thanos was gathering the infinity stones 😂😂

I feel like I could have really gotten into the 2cp's story. a woman that spends her entire long life only loving a man who doesn't know she exists, but then she magically regains her youth and the man finally notices her but she's too disillusioned for anything anymore I mean c'mon! there's potential there. but somehow this just isn't hitting

well I watched seven eps and no. I was really excited to see this cp together but just nope. I would watch a bl based on those two supporting actors though.

screaming!!! I was so glad when they showed us yz's ambitions. of course he wants to destroy everything! why else would he be so calm?! that's the only thing that makes perfect sense! I love it

with the way he was squeezing his hand into a fist while talking to her? he definitely remembers.

lu chen is still pei jiu, but the divine hand and the weapon spirits are one, they can't exist apart from each other so sigh poor yunniang unfortunately had to take the hit. it really sucks that this is her second aborted marriage too

lxy is such a well rounded actor though lol. that cave scene in ep 20 where yuanzhong was all unhinged and ranting was so well done. also credit to tang yan for partnering up with him so deftly, a true veteran👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I hate to side with a ml but yuan zhong was right in ep 19. it is absolute hubris that made her think she could descend and influence him and someone had to tell her whew like what do you know about his life and sorrows after he got the arm? but she's a goddess hubris comes with the territory so

well I finally finished and I liked the story's serious tone, the cp's serious relationship and the villain, who I can only describe as a disease. I also like the fl's costumes. apart from that heh I wasn't really a fan of the story itself in general, i'm pretty sure i'll forget this soon

don't quote me on this but it feels like he had some work done around his jaw which is why he couldn't really move his face? idk i remember him in shenli and he had some expressions there
