So happy for this drama! It deserves the world!

somebody maliciously bringing ratings down again? damn.

this drama has a lot of re-watch value. finding all those clues is absolutely a journey

You have to read novel for that to know more and we haven't seen S2 yet. But he is belonging to the Witcher sect. he is the one who stole Dafeng's fortune during the battle on Linyuan. That is something that we got to know from S1.

In season 1. She's Duchess Zhenbei, but she never showed her real appearance to Xu Qi An. Do I get it right?

Wetv, Viki, Viu

Question regarding Mu Nanzhi. Isn't she supposed to be the most beautiful woman in Dafeng? I get that she changed her appearance during the trip to the North, but we really never get to see her real appearance, right?

I like Lin An, I think she and Xu Qi A fit together and have a lot of common. Tian Xiwei did a great job, I enjoyed her performance a lot.

People were saying that it's not good because there were attack on the drama and main lead on Chinese internet and it didn't become immediate success. Unfortunately, some of it got affected perception of international audience. Kinda semi-famous cdrama reviewer also criticized that drama. I understand that some might not like the drama and I respect it. But many of them were repeating the same talk points that were on chinese social media. However, majority of people who decided to watch drama and stick to it, loved it. So... you always need to check for yourself. It might be some years until we receive Season 2. Wang Hedi said that he doesn't know if there will be S2. But looking at the numbers and profits, I think it makes sense to continue.

We all need season 2 with the same cast. And Xu Qi An - I think this is best role of Dylan Wang. What a drama, what a character!

I am still not over this drama and can't write coherent review. This is so brilliant on so many layers, on my 2nd re-watch and finding new things and tiny details of the lore. Somebody is obsessed as me?

I think someone maliciously rating as well. I see rating episodes that haven't even released yet

Ep 26 was express release. 2 episodes today

I must say, I very happy with 2 episode update. It's so interesting that Xu Qi An even managed to make friend with inner demon (and wow, the way demon slapped, lol)! I feel so connected and loving Xu's family so much, they keep forgetting each other. Xu Xinnian is pure comedy, how they forgot a room for him, poor boy. The comedy in this drama is excellent and touches so many of familiar family situations. Just so warm all along. On the other hand, who is the Witcher and why doesn't Wei Yuan not remembering this person? Who is the demon in the sky? I love how much Huaiqing cares about Linan, the way she sent troops to keep her safe. And the cliffhanger! I can't wait! This drama is really excellent, keeps me engaged, gives breathers and humor, while providing a thrill. I am so happy with it.

what does it mean? that Tencent wants to milk fans for money as much as possible? 🙄

EP. 24 I was heartbroken by the way Xu's family mourned XQA. The way his aunt wouldn't believe that he really died, her character makes me feel so much. I think women in general are written quite well in this drama. Wei Yuan slapping those officials because they looked down on deceased Xu Qi A was so satisfying. Also, Liu Yijun is a great actor, the way his muscles moved during that scene. Very powerful. Wei Yuan also wanting to take revenge on Witcher's sect. I also thought that Real Sect Founder who is also a cat possesses great power as he can bring XQA's spirit back to his body. The way XQA's family was chasing him as a cat was hilarious. Every episode we get introduced to new characters. Who is the handsome guy in black? I am also wondering how Astronomical Bureau Supervisor and Grand Princess are involved in all this. Wonder if XQA comes back the same after his deadly experience. Ah, I have so many questions.

it is very undeserved. the plot is great and world is rich.

regarding your first question, he actually dreamed of becoming a guardian since he saw them for the first time. after Zhou Li case he wanted to leave because he had no plan and he was imprisoned twice in 1 month as per his words. Being a guardian is a prestigious position and very difficult to get into, so I guess it's no wonder he stayed. About coming back to modern world, in first episodes he thought while fighting with thugs that "maybe if I d*e, then I can come back". But otherwise, I think his mindset was quite positive, optimistic and opportunistic. He said that in the modern world because of reality, he couldn't realize his dreams. In this world, with education and knowledge that he has from modern world, he can definitely realize his dreams. (which is initially to make money, lol)

this was adapted from harem story (novel)

3 months passed. and XQA has an incredible luck on him. ETA: on the other hand, maybe he was promoted by Lord Wei immediately for solving Sanbo case?
