I get that part (the aunt had proof that the calamity was tied to the daze sect), so he wouldn't be bearing the catastrophe, the sect would. I would have made the same choice to break the relationship and I think by not telling her the background story he was trying to give her a clean break. Saying he doesn't like her so she can have short term heart break (even though its very painful) but she can get over that and live her life in peace. He even got her home back for her. Its him whose going to be suffering, and I get why he wouldn't want her to spend the rest of her life wondering what if either. She can find another guy fall in love etc.

Honestly at this point she is better off without him and all the drama in his life

yes I ship him with the eagle princess, I like the ML and FL together..... its just they have a lot to overcome and i'm not really sure how they are going to get over what's coming in the next few episodes or how she will ever forgive him.

But episode 3 -13 was very sweet for ML and FL

I don't think he trusted her right, his hands were tied after he found out that the fate of the daze sect is tied to himself and A Yin. I wouldn't say he necessarily trusts the aunt just that he was backed into a corner after she showed him proof ... but we will see how it plays out

well the senior official is a love sick idiot lol - I just watched the scene with Wu Haun and the immortal emperor in episode 20 🤬🤬🤬. Ugh....... what a fool.... they should have stripped himof his title. He knows everything she did and still decides that its a good idea to just let it go.... WTF

Yes the ML is very handsome!!!! with shorter hair esp 😍

not yet, but I'm not sure if that is part of the plot later

Ep 20 - Almost barfed at the opening scene between Lan Feng and the peacock princess 🙄🙄🙄. This man is delusional.🤬🤬🤬

Is the peacock princess going to be re redeemed later on in the show? Because I really don't think I can ever like her or forgive her

My perspective is that by not telling her about their fate being linked to the sect, he was giving her a chance for a clean break. No regrets, get your heart broken and move on. If you think there is a possibility you could have been together then she might spend the rest of her life being sad. So its extreme pain in the short term for longer term closure.

I think it's redundant for us because we see it over and over again in Xianxia. But I think this type of manipulation is quite possible especially for people who haven't seen or experienced it before. When you trust people you have no reason to think critically, and in Asian culture I find this especially significant because of the collectivist mentality. But once you become jaded you question everything (like Ao Ge is a seasoned character for example, its very hard to fool him).

okay I'm caught up to 17 . Get ready to be extremely frustrated and angry as the villains start setting their plans into motion.

Ugh the peacock clan in particular is the worst.

I'm not sure how we are supposed to survive on one episode a day until Dec 25th?!?

When the peacock princess was laying it on thick, and A Jin's sword broke through the barrier - I couldn't have cheered louder lol.

I was ready to strangle her.

ooooo, I'm quite interested in the Netherworld King actually. Thank you for explaining :)

Maybe because his character is still suppose to be fairly immature and he didn't want to be a true god? I personally like his relaxed vibe compared to some of the other Xianxia ML's, but I haven't read the novel so I'm just assuming his character will go through significant growth as he goes through his own trials etc. and goes through pain and loss.

I have noticed that whenever he sees people doing inappropriate things or trying to meddle in other peoples business, or treat A Yin badly he is usually quite firm to put people in their places and that to me is a solid ML

Plus having watched clips of WAY in modern drama's I have seen that he can be an extreme alpha type man lol - so I think he is playing his character here.

I wouldn't drop the drama for that misunderstanding (its up to you of course), He thinks she saved him so he is grateful to her and it leads him to be extra nice to her (but based on the ML's personality he is the type to be generous to people anyway). The misundertanding is only mentioned a few times before episode 10 and his infatuation with the Princess ends in that episode, and he makes a quite rational decision about everything at that point. I was very impressed with how he handled the situation.

But this being a xianxia there are plenty of other angst and background drama and misunderstandings lol. I love watching the ML and FL together so I've been enjoying the ups and downs haha

Thank you this was super helpful, since I hadn't read the books, I was still devastated about what's about to happen to A Yin

What are the juicy moments? 🫣

I'm caught up to episode 16, I rewatched episode 14 and it destroyed me .....😭😭

Totally agree!

The simple but really genuine love story between A Yin and Gu Jin really has me hooked. I know since this is a Xianxia there is going to be lots of angst so I am ready for that, but for the time being I enjoyed how pure their love is. When she got ready for her wedding my heart broke because she was alone getting ready and picked a simple flower bouquet and was ready to marry her love and live the rest of their lives together. That is a moment of happiness that she will never get back.

I also like how despite losing his affection ties Gu Jin still can't help but be drawn to A Yin even without understanding why he even wants to be around her.

My heart breaks for A Yin because Gu Jin is a very caring ML and I would be devastated too if I was about to marry him and now he can't remember me 😭😭. How pissed off Gu Jin is going to be eventually when he finds everything out is keeping me going haha, and I know Feng Yin will be bad ass too but for the time being I am really enjoying A Yin.

She is so sweet and sincere. I am going to miss her 💔💔💔
