Is liking an ML as the red flag character deems fans who are excited to watch more as bad people?And liking such…
As many viewers as many opinions - I do understand that someone may not like to watch scenes of violence and this drama may be not up to their liking. is it violent? yes, as ML is on the war/spy mission and because he didn't kill the FL at their first encounter (what assassin should do to do not leave any witness) she got entangled between him and PY blood feud and court plots. She is the only one who can identify him. And because of her actions he has lost few his team members which were like his family. What are you expecting him to do? Do not try to silence her? Should he trust her just because she said so? This is not a case of domestic abuse. They are literally strangers. They don't have any feelings yet. Some guys are saying they won't stand up watching her falling for that guy... This is a part of the drama plot... They are enemies which with a time will start to build up feelings for each other. ML is not an evil person... and she will understand that with a time. Can viewers warship them as a couple? Why not? Not everything has to be black and white and as long as there is reasonable story line they could fall in love for each other. And don't forget - its drama after all when characters got magically healed from deadly wounds, can fly into the air, use internal powers etc.
People on Twitter (X) said the adaptation was toned down, and that PY was forcing XC to come with him, whereas…
Firstly in novel during the encounter on the tree WZ didn't want to kill innocent girl... So he only blocked her acupoints and made a deal with her and allowed her to watch an opera and the martial arts gathering. He gave her fake poison and unlocked acupoints which she could recognise and they were sitting together on that tree and watching how events were unfolding. Unfortunately as JC was moving and talking too much they had been discovered by Mrs Pei who gave a hint to Pei Yan so he used lightness skill to jump on that tree. WZ pushed JC down and she got seriously injured by Pei Yan and later he was treating her as she could be a key to identification of Wuxia. Screenwriters made ML more ruthless towards JC in drama than he really was in the novel Also there are countless differences in terms of the story line and plots. So let's see how they are going to play it :) as now it's hard to predict how the story will unfold.
Ren Jia Lun is playing really well, and his character is written in the way that makes my skin crawl.... I love…
She will fall for him in the novel after knowing him much better and his past as well as what he is fighting for (and thats not a revenge) - and process took months He wont be interested in her for a long time - she is basically his enemy.
they may change it to please the audience - also drama is more romance focused too... so who knows :) Or they will take another approach and actually make CL and JC loving couple as few years of time will pass by...
good reasonable ending? FL being free and living good life she was always yearning for? with a good guy supporting her? Both ML achieving their life goals... but it will come with price to pay its is not HE in terms of love couples... as lovers won't be together after all... However the last sentence in the book let reader to decide if its a only a friendship or something else
The drama doesn't have to follow up the novels ending so it might be a different one
Both ML are not evil characters but their actions are driven by events from the past, their upbringing and elders expectations. So PY has live up to his mother plans and Pei family safety. His main goal is to became Prime Minister and he doesn't mind to dirty his hands to achieve what he wants. He is using FL all the time despite feelings he is having for her... WZ has also his life mission - he has no other desire in the life than freeing his clansmen from 2 neighbouring states oppression. He will do whatever it takes to achieve that goal. and JC had a bad luck to climb on the same tree he has been hiding... The drama is a bit lighter in the way of portraying things then novel itself... But its really enjoyable to watch.
