hahhaa the whole time i was thining "dang, the water in the palace is veryyyy deep. it must be connected to a…
yes that used to be a lake!! lol it was described in detail in the novel... so happy to see it in the drama... they really tried to give us everything.
Love your comment. The only thing I have to disagree with is about SYS not deserving her. I can understand him…
You are so right. SYS wanted RR to ascend as she should have. Basically he was fighting his own heart desires, because he wanted to set her back on her life path before she ever met him.
I don't know why they didnt make it much worse... maybe magic spell is obscuring it lol But in the novel becos Weijiu was fighting a black dragon before he entered the pool so there was poison in his nails... MRW's face was starting to rot lol
I’ve seen a few clips on TikTok of the main cast , coming out of a building one by one to go to their car but…
No that was during their shoot... The cast all got injured at some point during the shoot. Deng Wei I think he had a fall and they rushed him to the hospital. Julia had her leg in a cast for a while. I think the 2ml also was injured somehow.
Don't think it was mentioned (certainly wasn't shown), but maybe I missed it.
Its not mentioned but since MRW said he 'died a long time ago' and the guy said 'close to 10 years ago' that means Su yu had him killed after he poisoned him. His brother would probably have been no more than a teenager at the time?
So far it seems its only changed on CN Iqiyi. The global version seems the same. Its mostly the same except they…
I did a rewatch... I suppose it is much easier for entry level audience new to xianxia ... it does flow better... Its not so much re-edited as in adding new scenes or deleting, just a slight reorganisation... now the truth from Ep1 is revealed in Ep6... then we continue to Ranran and there is no super long flashback lol
He kind of wants her to be able to survive on her own but the plan was for himself to take care of the Spirit…
But that was the charm of novel SYS he was really such a cocky bastard LMAO and he had no issues seducing his little disciple 'becos ooops the demon spring did it again' Compared to poor drama SYS who just a light kiss is enough to freeze his ass and send him running back to the freezer in case his core melts
Its not great obviously but I am curious, if you were in their shoes with this set of circumstances, what would…
Same but he was just a little nicer to her and she already fell for him ( written in her beauty loving soul hahaha ) , Zeng Yi will be kicking his frozen ass for seducing Shifu. Its kind of unethical to be any nicer to her than he already is lool
I guess this is his tough love to motivate her in the recent eps. But honestly I preferred the simple cold and aloof Shifu in the novel? He was never so mean but I suppose drama version needed to make loads and loads of angst and vinegar.
I wanted some filler...some breather... the biggest disappointment for me was we didn't get as much disciple free…
heheheheh yes after reading some comments from audience here, I get why they took out those 'slice of life' scenes... Still a little sad... I will have to see it in my imagination.
Eg when they went to the trials, it just started... In the novel, all the students camped there before the event started, and Ranran brought out so much food to bbq... to the annoyance of the other sect disciples who were cultivating and fasting LOOOOL That was so funny to read... but I guess it will ruin the pacing and the overall more serious tone of the drama.

I like that SYS did voice out his complaint that he didn't need MQG making the decisions for him. In fact the drama even tried too hard to hammer in this 'lesson' by making his mother also make unwanted decisions for him...
Didn't SYS already know all that is to know about the Spring? He actually thought he was able to conquer it and use its power instead. He did appeal to MQG to just give him more time to control it. What would MQG have been able to tell him to convince him he won't be able to?
That was part of the main issue. Its not a breakdown in communication here. He communicated to her to trust him to control it, she communicated that she cannot take the chance. The fact remained she was forbidden to convince him any further by telling him she saw the future of him becoming corrupted by the Spring. It was the interference of the Heavens who actually wanted him to go down that path. I don't think its very fair to blame MQG for 'making the decision' for him, because what other way was there?
The other misunderstanding regarding who MQG 'loves' arose because she decided to help Suyu's father become the emperor since she thought as long as she changed that branch of the future, Prince Ping might give up and will no longer force SYS down that path. But again, I don't see how else she can communicate to him that she is doing it for his 'own good' since he won't believe her when she told him its for his sake.
As for not telling XRR, I could understand SYS's reasoning. If she was a clean slate already, why weigh her down with the past especially when as you said, he doesn't intend for her to join him at all? Whats the point of telling her , oh yeah btw you used to be my shifu, but I intend to head to my certain doom alone, don't worry its nothing to do with you... you don't have to come help me, its all good? In a way he was following her order, its his own task, and she said she didn't want to see him again...
If she was born complete with all her powers, maybe he won't even bring her back to Xishan. But obviously he needed to otherwise what will we watch LOOOL
It's like the alarm that Ling Xiao spirit collapse....
I still suspect its to make the continuity for wardrobe and makeup easier LMAO becos in the novel she had days to absorb the energy into her body becos they travelled by foot back to Xishan and on the way she was even giving regular massages for Xiaobai who was KO'ed after the fight with the bugs.
She thought Shifu might be the same so she was giving Xiaobai massages to improve Shifu's circulation as well hahahahah it was so unserious but cute
In the drama they didn't have any break at all, she basically flew all the way back which I can understand and appreciate her sense of urgency.
He kind of wants her to be able to survive on her own but the plan was for himself to take care of the Spirit…
becos you said 'so they can take care of business' I assume its 'he can take care of business' since the drama version SYS is always going it alone... Sigh for this stark difference I preferred the novel SYS who was always taking his disciples out for adventures, but I suppose that will make light of the different demons and seem too light hearted drama lol

Ah its lunch time...activate....
Ah... teaberak!! activate!
