It just is. From the opening wedding scene, to the immoron-demon fight, to the ascendance, and that small quiet heart to heart talk, until that... endπ all those things somehow gave a fulfilling end to Tantai Jin and Li Susu's story. Maybe even without the promise of reuniting again (coz we all love happy endings), their story seems complete. Their fates were fulfilled, and the worlds were saved. I've had my peace with the end......coz it gives me freedom to write my own for themπ

The dungeon scene. To be fair, it was LSS's best too.
Runner up: The royal wedding scene. Also LSS's best.

Delivered with such intensity, and with blood-spitting glory, here it is: Since my affection means nothing to you, have a taste of my hatred. --Tantai Jin
The winner of the most self-centered/selfish character is TIAN HUAN! ππππππ
TIAN HUAN FOR THE WIIIINNNN!!!π₯³π₯³π₯³π€£π€£π€£
In my book, she and the Heavenly Empress in Ashes of Love take the cake for the most bloodboiling performances in my history of xianxia watching (which is admittedly not a lot....so not really a reliable basis for anythingπ)
Is this it Charley - our poor but ethereal TTJ calling out Ye Xi Wu at the Nether River? ππ
π€£π€£π€£ YES IT IS!!! For all the drama that it was, dude, you're calling the wrong personπ€£π€£π€£
TTJ: "Ye Xiwu, where are you?" OG YXW: "Who's that annoying --- who's disturbing me from my beauty sleep?!?" (Rises from the Nether River) "Oh. It's you." The torture TTJ gets did not come from the Ruo River, but from his ex wife.π€£ They lived happily ever after.π€£π€£π€£
Exactly! Novel fans were saying how the author must have thrown the book at her TV after they butchered GYJW's…
I didn't really understand Di Mian's story in the mtl, so when I got to it in this translation, I felt sad for him. 29secs needed more screentime.π honestly, Si Ying would have carried the whole immortal arc herself if the novel was followed. Wasted opportunities. Tsk tsk. Then again, that is the danger of adaptations... it would either be a hit or miss for the book readersπ¬ =coughGobletOfFire= =coughAvatar= =coughWitcher= π€£ #JIWUGATE
I'm currently reading the part where Gongye Jiwu gets devilized, and I think this is my version of Micha's porridgegate.π π The drama didn't give justice to Gongye Jiwu's character, and Si Ying was supposed to be the bestest right hand woman to ADG (still badass tho. Si Ying, I mean)... Things could have been muuuch better had the drama simply followed the novel.π π€£
(Plus, Xiao Lin was the goodest boi.π₯Ί He deserved a better second life. He's pretty too.π) #jiwugate, anyone?π

TIAN HUAN. Periodt.
I mostly feel sorry for ADG tho, because he really doesn't know how to do anything else other than destroy. It's what he's built for, he's not grey, he's pure black, he doesn't have the good gene, so to speak, which makes his case a little better than that π€¬π€¬π€¬ Tian Huan. She could have been better buuuutttt----- I'll stop there coz this will go full blown rant about her.

(Hey, you can't have one without the other!!π)
Oh, wait, I have one: ep.9 poisoning scene...
(But the scenes were all about TTJ/LSS letting each other goπ€£π€£π€£)
