Revenge? Yes. Deaths? Many. Romance? only if you squint reallll hard
First, I must mention the acting. Phenomenal. Every one was so good, especially the women--their insanity was so well shown. I loved Liu Matriarch, Xie Ruilan's, acting so fucking much.
Lead girlie Lan Mengyan was so, so, so good in all her insane moments. The killings, blood-splattered smiles and tears and revenge scheme scenes were so well executed by her.
Mo Xiu was good when he was pissed and enjoying Lan Mengyan's craziness. But his individual scenes and story/plot, fell flat. There was nothing in them worth seeing.
On that note, the romance was so non-existent that I wish it wasn't there to begin with--would've made the show much better.
The show wasn't 100% perfect but for a short length series, we can be generous, hmm?
