Another good scene outside. Xie Wei sending them off in style with that same tune.

Yan Lin is hands down the nicest guy ever.

The prison cell farewell scene was good. Great performance by both. Feeling so sad for them now.

It's always been walnuts lol. Apathy for every other privilege but take away her walnuts? She was ready to duke it out with the husband!

I'd love to watch a version where instead of turning good, she used her knowledge of what would happen in the future to completely wipe out all enemies and evidence. Kind of like her "in your face, karma".

Lol and all those people in that scene gasping in surprise and going "she can swim?!"

So no redemption even if one could turn back the hands of time and undid/fixed/atoned for the mistakes? :(

Oh. Having their leaders vulnerable for two hours every two weeks. Doesn't seem to be in keeping with their paranoid nature.

Ah. Thank you. I'm now at the part where he's fallen asleep and dreaming about Yue talking about those two herbs. I think he'll soon wake up with the cure.

These folks all seem to have a soft spot for him (with his cute fiancée) and are helping him pass.

Confused about this second test. Isn't he immune to poisons?

People keep using this throat-grab skill to beat you. Find a way to counter it first. Don't get distracted by who knows it or what that implies.

Halfway through episode 13. Wow so she's also a Wufeng. I had no idea. I had in fact completely forgotten about her.

I'd thought Jue would turn out to be on Yu's side after all, that he was simply trying to spur Yu on to work hard and not truly vying for control of the clan.

Nah, don't go. Folks here are nice. None of the miserable twisted Gong clan or Wufeng types here hahah. Seriously though, once the new episodes drop the conversations will probably shift back to the show itself.

Indeed. Though for some reason they all seem to enjoy talking in hushed undertones. Driving me crazy.

Halfway through episode 12. Enjoying the show. Although I don't get what they're fighting for. I don't see the appeal of being trapped physically and mentally and emotionally leading a bunch of miserable folks.

I watched this because I found myself dangerously attached to Mysterious Lotus Casebook and wanted a distraction. And now I've grown attached to this and have to go back to Lotus for distraction.

And now I'm 26 episodes into this, 16 into Lotus and 40% into the Lotus novel. Dangerously attached to all three.

I need a new show.

No wonder it looks so nice. Kudos to them! Not the usual flat white. The entire effect with his perfect skin and snowy robes and that vaporizing mask was just mesmerizing. I was riveted.

Especially XL's hair. Smooth and shiny. I can't get enough of it.

Xiyan seems dark and villainy while Haoling is all heaven-like lightness.
