As I said earlier, I LOVED the finale. Yes it was bittersweet, yes it was painful but it was also BEAUTIFUL and POIGNANT. I thought I would be really sad and angry watching the finale but surprisingly, though I was sad, I wasn’t angry. I understood why they did, what they did. I understood TTJ’s sacrifice. TTJ loved LSS, but he also loved the world. LSS loved TTJ, but she also loved world. In the end, their love for all beings was greater than their love for each other. Their love was selfless.
I don’t think TTJ is gone forever, because I think it was only LSS who fully turned into a goddess. Even her phoenix form appeared when she transformed. TTJ became godlike but I don’t think he fully transformed into a god. So there is a chance he would still come back. LSS also promised she would say everything she wanted to say next time. He did leave his divine wisp in the shell, so he isn’t fully gone. And if he didn’t fully transform into a god, he can reincarnate.
And even if he did become god; I still don’t think he disappeared completely. Although they did say earlier they gods didn’t have souls, when LSS transformed, she did meet Chu Huang and others in another realm outside of the three realms. So there is a place like that where the gods still exists. Who is to say, TJJ won’t find a way to come back? Or LSS won’t find a way to reach that realm?
Another thing that really struck me is the inscriptions; YXW, beloved wife of TJJ and TJJ, the loving husband of LSS. TJJ was the LOVER and LSS was the BELOVED.
LYX and BL are truly legends who brought these characters to life. We already knew about the tombstone scene from before but during their farewell scene there was one part when I felt LYX and BL were truly crying and it wasn’t just acting. That’s how immersed they were in their characters.
Yes, the drama wasn’t flawless. It had some editing and technical issues. They had to cut down on episodes. But the team put their hearts and souls and it shows. This is an UNFORGETTABLE drama. I still would prefer an epilogue instead of just a voiceover by LYX and BL. They could have easily given us one and I don't understand why they didn't film an epilogue. I would also like to know what happened to YQY. Did Pian Ran come back? But still as a finale epi, it was grand and epic.
now what I don't understand is WHY DID THE RATING FROP FROM 8.9
People can't handle open or sad endings, that's why. Lot's of people downvoted it. I personally saw it as open to interpretation. Even if it was sad, it made sense. Pants could have given us proper epilogue but they didn't. But still it was great.
This time BL said they should act in a drama where she plays the villain and LYX said he could catch her/or they…
I am still hopeful..maybe it'll take years but still... I think Yunlu doesn't care coz they are such good friends irl and everyone knows they're friends. They are both chilled out and mature to care for rumors.
Can’t believe LYX and BL really acted in a sugary fluff romcom and then acted in an angsty pain filled drama.…
This time BL said they should act in a drama where she plays the villain and LYX said he could catch her/or they could both be villains together. Let's hope that happens someday!
PS: Listening to it again, I can't believe how accurate it turned out to be!
I miss Pian Ran and Ye Qing Yu so much! Before the drama started I knew nothing about this two actors and their characters. I didn't expect to love them so much! Even though they are officially the third cp, they are the true second cp of this drama for me!
A note to new viewers. The ending is open to interpretation. Different people have interpreted it in different ways. While some might think it's sad others might think it's hopeful. So don't get deterred, give it a try. You might just love it. And regardless of the ending it is a beautiful etched story with beautiful acting from the cast with out of this world visuals.
Thank you for sharing. Very pleased with it's international popularity 🙂 Hopefully Yunxi and Bai Lu will also…
Actually this list mostly consists of domestic achievements. But these are only some of them, it actually ranked on top of every web drama charts while it was airing. It is also said to be the most successful xianxia ( fantasy( drama ) in the past five years. Yunxi and Bailu also gained many new fans.
