actually no....some parts you have somewhat right though.

no....susu definitely gets intimate with him later on.

She left him because she was trying to get to the Abyss of Desolation to find out how to remove his evil bones. Up to this point she still didn't know how to do it so she is seeking guidance. She needed to talk the guardian of that realm because he would know since he had been there since the last war between the gods and demons.

That's Tantai Jin 500 years in the future after Li Su Su changed his future. It's the immortal name he takes.

yes...and within the second arc is another one in the painting. At least I think it was a painting...but it's the Cang Jiu arc and when she lost her memories.

absolutely! It's fun to watch the process though....it's like a cat and mouse game.

You will see as the story progresses. Their story is extremely complicated and in the end you will understand everything completely. In all honesty no one understands him better than she does at this moment. The best way to understand it is that she knows exactly the kind of person he is and knows that he can't help who he is. He was born with this destiny, he didn't ask for this. She can feel compassion for him, but at the same time be wary of him. You will understand later why she falls in love with him!

basically she is a god. She's a phoenix and he understood her God powers. Also she is half demon.

Don't forget though that she time traveled right after he destroyed her whole sect and family. He is a terrible enemy in the future and that is the only thing she ever knew about him before going to the past. She literally grew up in a world overrun with demons and seeing her people slaughtered by him her whole life. So it's understandable that she is wary of him. The first arc she struggles with her compassion for him but is also wary of him knowing he has no capacity to love or feel sympathy. He is a psychopath in the truest sense. He was literally born to become evil and his primordial soul was created because of all the evil and resentment of the world. I definitely don't condone her actions but this is necessary for her to discover for herself what is right and wrong. There will be a lot of growth with both leads as it progresses!

So he met Li SuSu as a child. At the time he was running rampant killing all immortals but he was never content. After he killed Gongye jiwu, he remembered his mortal death which was by fire and he was killed by Xiao Lin (Gongye's past life). Anyway one day he heard that Gongye's dead body was missing and found that Li Susu was trying to recover his dead body to take it back. He watched her struggle to drag his body and he was struck with jealousy that Gongye always had people that cared for him in this life and his past life. He let her go. Later she was kidnapped and taken to Tantai Jin where he discovered her special identity. I won't give it away because it would be a major spoiler. As the Devil King he can forsee his future death. Knowing Li Susu's "identity" he wondered if she could change his future. He was able to see what she would look like when she was fully grown and knew that she would try to change the future. He was fully aware that her plan was to remove his evil bone and basically allow him to feel emotions. He sent her back to her sect because he basically orchestrated for her to go back into the past to see if things would change. It was purely for selfish reasons though because he wanted to avoid his death.

I remember reading that he knew he was going to die in the future and he didn't want to so he let her go to see if she could change things to prevent his death.

In one of the extras in the novel he actually met Li SuSu when she was a child. But it explains why he let her go. If you want to know I can explain it otherwise it would be a spoiler in case it gets revealed in the drama.

There will be later but for now you will see bits of it throughout but it's angsty because there are always misunderstandings between the two.

Not once did he ever love the sister. It was purely a spell used on him to make him believe it. But for right now on the drama. he doesn't really like her at all. He is just emulating what Xiao Lin does. He has no concept of what love is.

me too! I can already tell that I like Ye Qingyue in the drama much more than the novel. I think I'll feel more sad for him than the 2nd CP. When I saw the previews I thought she would be more likeable in the drama, but they are already showing her selfish side this soon.

Basically it's the true form for Tantai Jin. He is mortal right now but if he were to die he would still be reborn even more powerful and evil. Right now he has no capacity to love. That's why he feels no emotion. I think that's why I love how this drama shows this when he is a child trying to emulate other people and expressions. To truly kill him, his evil bone (soul) needs to be destroyed so he can't come back. Also that soul or primordial spirit is from all the resentment and misery of the world.

My personal opinion is that the novel is a happy ending. There is a BE but the HE is a continuation after the BE. And it's super happy!

LYX is so on point with his character! I am in awe of his ability to show the different nuances of Tantai Jin. He nailed it! The drama is pretty close to the novel with some minor differences but all in all it's such a strong start. I like Bai Lu's portrayal of Ye Xiwu in this drama. The first six episodes are definitely promising. I look forward to all the future episodes.

on the calendar it shows the double happiness symbol so i'm hoping it ends the same way the novel did. It totally made all of the hurt they both experienced worth it!

It's soooo angsty but the ending is so worth it. At least it was in the novel!
