I don't know how many times I've rewatched this. I can't get enough of it. I never will. A quality that will never return. Amazing, amazing, amazing. I adore it.
đȘ· Another unusual ending, but definitely one of those hidden gems. đȘ·
đȘ When our princess heroineâwhose entire family and people were massacred during a demonic invasionâsets out on a path of revenge and to rid the world of demons, her journey intersects with a charismatic immortal who has yearned for her for a thousand years. Throughout this adventure, shifting relationships, newfound and rekindled friendships, teamwork, and multiple couples form a truly engaging core cast that I enjoyed watching from beginning to end.
The fantasy elements are well-balanced, enhancing the overall flavor of the show. Instead of taking place in a fully immortal world, the story progresses with a more human touch, fitting into the "Wuxia" genre, which adds depth and beauty to the narrative. The first half is fun and light-hearted, while the latter half becomes emotional and profound. This has become one of those series Iâve added to my archive, the kind Iâll revisit from time to time.
Though the 30-episode series can feel slow-paced at moments due to flashbacks and emotional depth, it's still a high-quality drama that keeps you curious for the next episode. I watched every bit of it without skipping or fast-forwarding. For those looking for a high-quality production that focuses on romance while blending in adventure, fantasy, and friendship â this oneâs definitely above average. I also got hooked on Zheng Ye Cheng with his charisma and role in this series. đ
"I watched it at the beginning of 2024. Unfortunately, the current shows arenât very good, so I think itâs time for a rewatch of this one."
I don't think I'll be able to watch the second season of this series â I haven't even finished the first one yet. But yes, he was definitely a character who deserved much more screen time. He was the most intriguing character in the show, and the one who matched best with the male lead as a duo, especially with his intelligence and way of thinking.
Absolutely. I watched 23 episodes to see the encounter scene between him and Bei Ming and possible brotherhood scenes, but unfortunately, the scene share for the most interesting character in the series was very insufficient. But still he is a scene stealer.
In episode 23, Zhuge's charisma reaches its peak. This is what it means to be cool and intelligent. It is evident that Zhuge knows his beloved rival much better than the leading lady. It would have been preferable if the leading lady had not been included in this series, and we could have witnessed the brotherly bond between the leading duo, which developed from their friendly rivalry. In that case, the series would have been of much higher quality. We've been watching the lead character in a sickening way for 20 episodes straight.
You watch episode 2 to episode 3 in just a click. It's easy to say you shouldn't or wouldn't hurt or lose trust…
That's your opinion, and you can come up with all sorts of excuses to justify the leading lady, but they're all just excuses. You can comfort yourself that way, but it goes against my way of thinking. I don't buy into that kind of justice. Being a woman doesn't excuse her. I'm sorry, but I can't excuse someone's actions based on feminist ideas. Sheâs just a thoughtless fool in my eyes, and that wonât change because of the excuses youâre making. I hate her. No price she pays will exonerate her; it will only be paying the price for what she did. There's a saying in this series: âA life for a life.â This price is being presented as if it were a favor (her willingness to sacrifice her eyes and her life, etc.), but it's not a favor; it's a natural thing that anyone who feels guilty should do. Every character in the series pays a price, whether willingly or unwillingly, and thereâs nothing that sets her apart. Everyone has a reason, but sheâs the only one who doesnât pay the price. Iâm not buying it.

"Iâve watched everything youâve watched. I didnât skip a single scene in the series, but I still donât think the same way you do. Itâs normal for the girl to get angry and have doubtsâshe should investigateâbut making a decision without thinking is still completely irrational. Even though three years had passed, stabbing him to let out her anger wasnât a problem for me. It was an understandable scene. But the moment poison was involved, it crossed the line. It doesnât matter what kind of poison it was or what she intended with itâthe point is, it was poison. Choosing any kind of poison out of many deadly ones is a risk in itself.
Wanting to weaken him was also ridiculous. This girl, who stood up to so many enemies with courage, suddenly needs such a drastic measure against the person she knows best? Everything started with her asking for poison. Thatâs why, to me, sheâs the guilty one. The other guyâs carelessness is just a consequence.She shouldâve double-checkedâsheâs handling poison, not medicine, among dozens of deadly ones.
If a family member of ours had an accident and got hurt, of course weâd feel anger, maybe even hatredâwe might even want to kill someone. (But you didnât go out and harm random people just because you were angry, right?) We first have to investigate the cause and find the real target of our anger. There should be not a shred of doubt left. And the girlâs decision wasnât impulsiveâit was fueled by years of anger, but three years is more than enough time to think clearly. She couldâve thought about what kind of person the guy truly was, their bond since childhood, and her fatherâs strange behavior before he died. Three years is plenty of time for that. That way, she couldâve investigated him objectively when he showed up.
We donât need to personally experience everything to be able to use our minds and distinguish right from wrong. And I still hate the girl. In my opinion, her actions completely contradicted her character. Her stupid mistake led to deadly consequences. The male lead was branded for a crime he didnât commit and was even accused by the one who shouldâve believed in him the most. Instead, she was the first to lash out and poisoned him fatally, without any return. And he didnât even get angry at her.
Right now I just call the girl an idiot, but Iâm holding back from saying even worse things. And I think she deserves it. I would say the same thing if it were a male character. I hate characters who act this brainlessly and stupidly. I call girls like that a btch and guys like that a bastrd. Thatâs how I vent my anger. At least Iâm not hurting anyone physically :D
Iâm sorry, but your perspective doesnât work for me. Some actions are simply unforgivable because thereâs no turning back. Thatâs why you have to double, triple check before doing something. Especially if youâre someone in charge of justiceâor if the person in front of you is someone youâve known since childhood, you need to be even more careful. And even more so if itâs someone you love and married.
You can say the poison guy is at fault all you want, but in my eyes, the one who asked for the poison is more guilty. She had the intention and caused it all. According to your logic, the male lead shouldâve been furious tooâbecause the person he loved the most didnât trust him, and instead made a worse judgment than anyone else, stabbing and fatally poisoning him. But he drank the poison willingly, saying heâd drink anything from her hands, even if it was poison. He didnât blame her because he trusts her, he knows she didnât do it on purpose, and he loves her. Thatâs the difference between them. Acting on anger always ends badly. After all those years together, I think he deserved at least a little trust. Not blind trust, of course, but enough to make her double-check before killing or poisoning him.
And again, I will never forgive or tolerate such a characterâregardless of gender.
I truly donât understand the people who keep defending her. Sorry, but your sense of justice doesnât seem very fair to me. On one hand, someone was poisoned and branded as guilty without trial, and on the other hand, someone poisoned a person due to their own stupidityâand faces no consequences. Thatâs not balance. A pregnant woman who kills someone threatening her is still sentenced to death, but this girl gets away with it because sheâs the female leadâand because the male lead is some foolishly loyal lover who keeps blaming himself. Sorry, but I canât stand injustice. Everyone must pay the price for their actionsâwhether they did it intentionally or not. Stupidity and anger are not excuses.
Donât keep trying to justify the actions of a brainless girl who caused someoneâs death. I donât care if she didnât mean it. If she was targeting the wrong person, then she deserves to die. According to your view, anything done in anger should be excused. So by that logic, when we lose a loved one, we can lash out at anyone without checking if theyâre guilty? Sorry, but Iâm not that irrational, nor that cruel, and definitely not a naive Pollyanna. Iâm just someone with basic logic. And that basic logic says: the one who asked for the poison should pay the price. Itâs not that hard to understand.
And donât bother explaining the series to meâIâve watched it too. Everyone interprets things through their own lens. Our senses of justice donât align. In my justice system, someoneâs guilt must first be confirmed. Otherwise, anyone can go around killing others in the name of revenge without proper cause. Thatâs not for me. Clearly, since that seems acceptable to you, weâre never going to agree. Respectfully."
Some of us had similar feelings for the FL and the script has not favoured her character much going forward, however…
She has a decent character in other respects, but she shouldn't have made that fatal mistake. A single fatal mistake ruins the whole character. That's why I stopped watching a few series, such as Wonderland of Love and Go East. I hope it turns out the way you said. I think the finale will be aired today, but I started watching it last night and I'm on the 10th episode, so I'll be able to watch the finale a day or two later. My only hope is that no one on the team, especially Bei Ming and his red-clad rival Zhuge, dies in the finale. I don't really care what happens to the woman after what she did :D My opinion won't change until I see the finale. :D
Not: I watched episode 9 and I still hate her. If the main character dies from poisoning, I might end up hating the rest of the series despite its overall quality.
The only way to make up for this and for my hatred to subside is for them to eliminate the poison. There is no other solution.
I waited for the episodes to accumulate and finally started watching. It's a great start for the first two episodes. A clever plot. A killer similar to Professor James Moriarty in Sherlock Holmes. He holds the strings and it's very difficult for the puppets to escape. Everyone will pay the price for what they've done. The lead role and his aides don't have an easy task. Adrenaline, adrenaline, adrenaline. This series has a much higher quality and more fluid plot than the recently concluded investigative series Coroner Diary. If the rest of the series is like this, it definitely deserves a much higher rating.
It was beautiful. A drama that wasn't suffocating. It could have been even better without the family members, ex-boyfriend, and annoying friend, but it was beautiful from the couple's perspective
