They were given the mirror for the wedding gift? I missed that. I'll check the wedding scenes again tomorrow. If you're talking about her father's gift to her, that's something else he made.

The god who made light breaking time travel thing, created the mirror current-past timeline while "dying" holding the abyss. This is the same mirror SuSu uses 500 years later, but in the current-past timeline SuSu is already back in time to be there when he makes it.

So far, nothing really has changed in the timeline in the grand scheme of things. So how did the mirror get to the Heavens originally?

Anyway like I said, I guess can be explained with the god himself changing/creating the needed circumstances. But just something that stuck out to me.

Time travel's always a tricky thing. But I guess if it's an immortal/eternal god behind it, the sticking points can be explained as him having foreseen it all and so adjusted accordingly.

Regarding the Mirror:

Also, I am not sure if the couple are really supposed to love each other, or she did something to make XL like/love her. It may just be fated and love (because face it, that same line is used for love stories in positive ways--"can't explain, beyond reasoning," etc)--but XL told his father he doesn't know why he loves her. So...

Of course I haven't read the novel. Just reacting to her from the show. But no matter how bad she turns, I feel like the resentment and anger she had previously are what would be driving her, so I don't think I necessarily would hate her even if she ends up losing my sympathy.

Then again, I am not the one to hate villains if characterization and motives are shown and storylines make sense. Even if I don't root for them or sympathize, no reason to hate. But ehh..that's me.

I must be one of the few who isn't annoyed by her or hate her. People for some reason use the Ming Yu timeline to hate her, when it really isn't her even if she was 'fit' to embody that character.

She is selfish as shown by the wedding scene. But I also feel like YXW gets a pass now because she's been taken over by SuSu. The family treated her badly and so did YXW, so for her to become the way she is, it's a result of their actions.

I feel like because she's the female villain/second lead she's not given the same kind of leeway the male lead is given. Even though we see what he has gone through and just told in a few lines and scenes about her, it's still told. But there's no sympathy for her.

That being said, I know the difference between him and her is that he is loyal, while she is all about herself. Even so, I feel like YXW and family's actions are just glossed over.

In short unlike others I do think your point is a legitimate question. I just think they are limited by scope, as well as the fact that they are a nomadic tribe who would be outmatched against large kingdoms. If they strong overwhelming powers to control the animals, they would be powerful. But I don't think they have that, just communication and maybe a little bit more--and that too is limited.

Plus, because they are a nomadic tribe, they probably don't want to be rulers. Just want to live and preserve their tribe.

Ahh, sorry. I had deleted it cause I watched episode 9 and saw that the members could kind of get animals to do things for them like chew on their knots. So I was wrong that they couldn't control animals. But even so, I think it seems more like communicating with animals than control.

So I didn't think my original comments would be of any help to you, but I guess it was. And what you are saying makes sense. I agree with you that it is a powerful tool, but I think they are supposed to be a nomadic tribe. So while some of them may have those powers, it wouldn't be enough to overtake a big kingdom. And again, not everyone in the tribe has it.

Like, I can understand the younger maid. She was in a hopeless place, had no clue how powerful TTJ would get and wanted to end her misery to his detriment. But the older one, dude...she is the priestess, she knows how powerful he is. She may be in a better position if he overtakes his brother, and at least he knows she is loyal to him and he would repay the loyalty.

And it's not like her tribe is against demon powers, so it wouldn't be like LSS who wouldn't want to associate with it. That woman had to be the most idiotic of all of them. Even the older Tantai brother was more understandable.

Bro, people are stupid. He would've been loyal to the end. And they are complaining about feelings and emotions. Nutjobs. Loyal and probably helpful too if you hadn't turned against him.

He did, but then when he saw that she put her own life to save him, he kind of was 'moved' and forgot about what she had said. Maybe he thought her thoughts changed, and she herself told him she now loved him. I don't know if he believed it, but he did see the change for himself, so figured she really did somewhat care about his wellbeing.

I just finished episode 8. The answer is: It ebbs and flows.

Bro I'm watching episode 8, and I gotta say, why is SuSu blaming TTJ for the aftermath of the drugging? What was he supposed to do? He didn't plan that, it happened. And he wasn't strong enough to stop it even if he wanted to. Like bruh, I don't know if it is different in the novel but what could he have done? I was prepared to be like.... totally aghast against him cause I had read comments and all. But seriously, what did she think he should've done?

I don't think this matters anymore, but was Chief Wu plotting against the King and the Prince, or just plotting against the Prince (Xiao Lin)? He tells Tantai Jin to frame Xiao Lin and YXW, then says he's looking after King's interests. Now the part about looking after King's interests could be just covering up and plausible denial, but am curious if he was plotting against both father and son or just the Prince.

Some one please please explain. It is Tantai's mother's tribe or mother's lineage that can talk to animals, right? Not all can, but it is a trait within some of their tribe which the mother had and passed on to the son.

Also a question about episode 3

This is the best explanation I've seen in the comments I've read.

In the novel in that scene, TTJ forced some ministers to eat the soup. He then told them they just ate TTML's flesh. Later on when the ministers were out, he told the tribe guy it was just some rats flesh they ate and not TTML's flesh 😶

I guess it's not made clear and people are assuming her to be either dead or somewhere hanging around.

Wonder what happened/how she died in the original timeline. Did she roll down the hill originally and die or get hurt, or what. None of these questions will be answered, I guess. Hehheh.

The body swap didn't really last long the first time. The second time a little longer, but neither instance is really what caused them to understand each other. In fact I would say the FL in the second body swap was acting recklessly and stupidly for the most part (but it made sense from her perspective), and it just moved the plot forward rather than having the characters understand each other.

Anyway different people will like different things. The shows are very different.

But isn't Ming Ye just dream of past events with the characters acting out other people's lives in a dream?

If your desktop allows mirroring, mirror it to your desktop.

Yeah. That's what I mean. Because mediocre dramas tried to get around with two parts, came the restriction on Part 2s (I read that goes into effect later this year, hence not risking here with part 2?)

They changed it to 50 minute episodes but if they had maybe 5 or so more episodes with the 50-minute run time, probably everything would've been fine. But they can't go over 40
