To be honest the show isn't really worth it. I was really excited to watch this show hoping that it was more with the fighting side and martial arts of Jiang Hu. However I'd say that like the first 7 episodes actually met that requirement, the first few episodes actually get you hooked into watching it. Later on you figure out who Hei Fengxi's real identity is, and from that point on it just kept bringing up court affairs and one episode took about 10 minutes to watch for me, it was more like one episode was 75% about court affairs and they rest of it was about Bai Fengxi and Hei Fengxi.
Gotta say the best thing about this drama is the costume, I think the way Yang Yang is dressed as Hei Fengxi instead of Feng Lanxi (his prince side) is way better and same thing with Bai Fengxi. The cast was also great and same with the music. I think it was really the court affairs that made the show only an 8.0 stars. I am disappointed that most of it wasn't really related to the martial arts side of Jiang Hu.

Personally the 3rd sister and the first sister's marriage was a little boring. My favorite was probably the 4th sister's. But the 5th sisters' marriage was probably the most entertaining to watch. The drama is naturally funny, and I loved the mom. She's super funny and it makes the show so halirious.
The only issue I had with watching this show, was some of the scenes were really boring and then you thought that one of the sister's story was over, but really it's not. So it felt like it took forever to watch the show even though it more of a "shorter" drama since it only have 36 episodes.

I gotta say this was a very quick and good drama. I saw a few scenes of this show and was immediately captured by watching it. The show does a very good job of making this entire vampire thing come to life, just watching the first couple of episodes it already gives off the vibes of reading a webtoon or a manga.The acting is superb, idk why everyone is hating on Li Yingliang, but I like him as a character, I wouldn't consider him the villain because Mu Lihua is. Li Yingliang is actually a very loyal and kind person, he just does things just to survive and keep living. I can understand where he is getting his resentment and hatred from, and it's a little relatable.
The ending was so uncalled for, it is kinda a cliffhanger. But I Aldo liked how Mi Lan and her mother reconcile, and how Li Yingliang decides to do what's right and turn into a new leaf even though he died. I'm not too disappointed.

Not the drama I was anticipating for. I've seen better fantasy dramas, I would just like to state that the entire show is a little confusing when Feng Yin comes back. We all know that A Yin is Feng Yin, and when Feng Yin comes back, she wants nothing to do with Yuan Qi, but she makes it very obvious that she is A Yin.Hua Shu isn't any better, the one time she decides to wear red also happens the one time that she's at the Phoenix realm where everyone else wears red. Like I understand that was meant to be the reason for the plot but it's also just ironic.
The story is not as good as it looks, and near the end, I just wanted to finish the drama as fast as I could. Even Ao Ge and Xiu Yan's story was confusing.

Again like the love triangle, where the evil second female lead does things to sabotage the female lead. Don’t know what happened to Mo Zitian, he kinda just disappeared after Xixi said she didn’t have feelings for him. Overall not bad, short drama.

Honestly really impressed by Dylan Sprouse, I believe he actually spoke Chinese the entire movie, which might have took him some time to learn, really appreciate that, again Guan Xiaotong did an amazing job as usual on acting, really liked her cold icy version of the princess, and would like to state that when she was the “evil” princess, her makeup was something I’ve honestly seen on Guan Xiaotong for the first time, so a big change.
Other than that, good plot, and story was pretty good. Here’s the link to watch it:

Every time I watch this show, it makes me feel pity for both of the main leads. Like I pity Xiaofeng because, her family was killed by the person she loved, but yet she couldn't hate him. I pity Li Chengyin, because he chose to betray Xiaofeng, and couldn't really get her love. Both of the main leads just make me feel like the other is a terrible person, like when I look from Li Chenyin's point of view, it makes me feel like that Xiaofeng is a bad person, but when I look at Xiaofeng's point of view, it made me feel like Li Chengyin was a bad person. I feel like Li Chengyin should have told Xiaofeng what he was thinking because it made Xiaofeng think that Li Chengyin hates her. I honestly don't know what was wrong with the queen's eyebrows, like it just looked funny. Not to mention but, I actually kind of liked the queen. I don't know why but the fact that she favors Xiaofeng more the Zhao Sese makes me happy. I feel that Xiaofeng shouldn't have killed herself in the end, I know she was doing it for the states but I think that after her death, it could have brought war again between the states. This show actually needs a season, of them reincarnating and just living a life without worries. Was this review helpful to you?

For season 2, I cannot say the same. Season 2 was just absolute garage, but season 1 was pretty decent. The story is very hard to understand for some people, but I love it. The way how Feng Tianyi falls in love with her is really charming. I really loved it.

Not much to spoil but the ending
This story is very good as well as the acting. The only thing I did not understand was the ending. I don't get why Su Youlian gave up her satiness mark because she could have lived a happier longer life because Li Xuan is also Kaunwu so they could have been together. the story is very good. It's basically like a girl going into a school and doesn't want her identity to be figured out and she falls in love, but it turns out that man is also a part of her clan but neither of them knows. I really recommend it.Was this review helpful to you?

The show is one of those fast ones. It starts off sort of fast and is also very interesting. Princess Weiyoung is interesting to watch and it is really easy to understand and keep up with the show. I also like how the show doesn't always have the main leads winning. Like usually in other dramas, the main leads get everything and win, whereas in this drama lots of things go down for Touba Jun and Weiyoung. Honestly, Touba Jun shouldn't have married Li Changle, because even if it was a deal with Touba Yu, he still shouldn't have done it, because I feel like Touba Yu would have saved Weiyoung even if Touba Jun didn't agree. As for the 9th princess, I don't even know if she knows what's going on in the palace. Because she been sick and injured. And I feel like Li Changru has always been evil since the beginning.Almost every person in this show is destroyed by love and hate. Like Touba Yu and Touba Jun both like Li Weiyoung so Changle and Changru become evil. But the ninth princess, however, didn't become evil after knowing that Li Minde likes Weiyoung, that's why her life can't be destroyed by love and hatred.

This show would have been a lot better if the God Realm didn't collapse. I feel like after Shang Gu dies and the whole God Realm dies, the story just starts going downhill really fast. I felt like I was wasting my time watching the story of Qing Mu and Huo Chi. Like I didn't care about them and it was a waste of my time. I didn't see a point of them.
The costuming for this show wasn't the best. Everyone in the show had like 3 outfits, while Shang Gu had like a dozen. The effects were really nice tho. Another thing to point out is the God Realm closes to fast. It closes around like episode 20 and because it closed a lot of people died. So it didn't make the storyline any better since I had to recognize new faces and more people. Characters like Xue Ying, Yue Mi, Hong Ri, etc. were barley even a part of the show. I really liked them, and after the God Realm closed, there was no point of continuing to watch this show.

Show isn't super bad overall, mainly came to watch this because of the second collab of Zhao Lusi and Liu Yuning. Their acting and chemistry in the show was really sweet and good. When watching their first collab, I really wanted to see a drama mainly focusing on them two as the lead and this show went pretty well.The acting was superb on both sides. I'm glad to see Zhao Lusi taking on different roles. She is a really good actress as she's been taking very different roles for the past 2-3 years. This character is probably one of my favorites that she has played so far. She's very wise and strange. She does things differently and you can never expect her next move. I loved watching her character development throughout the show, and I love how she also knows a thing or two about martial arts so she can defend herself. I watched a few Liu Yuning dramas, and Idk what to really say. He's been playing kind of the same roles in most of the dramas I've seen him in, but his acting is still pretty good.
there are some plots in the story that make me really frustrated, and this entire series is honestly just trying to find out who the real mastermind behind everything is, so it's like a journey. There are some other characters that make the show even more enjoyable.
My only issue with this show is everything that happens on ep 18. I've never read the book, so idk who to blame it on. In most dramas I've watched something always happens to one of the main leads. (SPOILER) I thought it was really dumb for Duan Wu to just think that Yan Zijing wanted to kill her, I also understand that it might have been difficult for her at that time, but why would Yan Zijing want to kill her for no reason, and right after the two were in a really good relationship. Sometimes the author just needs to think about all perspectives.
