in the novel, they didn't find out until chapter 45 out of 100 chapters, and after they were married in chp 35

They said this about him in BCE and he won two awards, outstanding actor and quality and creative artist.

can you upload the link up above?

I'm not up to date this doesn't seem to fit the story in the novel, why would they do this in the drama? It makes no sense to me.

I was wrong to assume he had no powers to defy gravity. Mei Zhuyu indeed was only pretending to not be able to land on his jump off the tower gate and rather break his leg than show his true powers. I just saw a clip of him gliding in the air across the waters. It means he does possess qingqong to perform these acts. In addition, the clip shows Mei Zhuyu fighting with his sword. Both of these things, qingqong and swordsmanship aligns with wuxia martial heroes, and the label wuxia can apply to this drama.

Qinggong (轻功), or "lightness skill," is an ancient Chinese martial arts technique and training method focused on developing extreme agility, lightness, and the ability to perform gravity-defying feats, like jumping high and moving with incredible speed. While practitioners use physical training to increase their bodily lightness, the concept is often exaggerated in wuxia stories to depict superhuman abilities such as gliding on water or scaling walls.

In wuxia novels, protagonists often hide their true powers to create drama, show humility, or surprise foes, though it’s not always the case and varies by character and story. They may downplay skills to stay safe, outsmart enemies, or keep a low profile in the dangerous martial world, often reflecting virtues like restraint and wisdom valued in wuxia codes.

Honestly, I was thinking why would Xu Kai would take a role that he can't swing a sword.

not a nice guy
"but my cousin has malicious intentions, and I have to worry that you will attack the people around me again." She paused, "Especially my husband"
" if Pei Jiya really wants to make trouble, Chang'an City will have turned upside down."
"when her cousin Pei returns to Queensland, the 'rat lichen' she made will take effect, and then she will have to invite her cousin to be a mouse for a few days. As the saying goes, treat the person in the same way."

that's a big compliment

unfortunately, Mei Zhuyu is an expressionless man. see here is a description from the novel, "Mei Zhuyu sat on the edge of the bed, holding a civet cat in his arms, expressionless for a while, " an interview, Xu Kai said the director told them to not widen their eyes because they both have big eyes, or the director is looking for a duller vibe from Mei Zhuyu, opposite of dazzling Wu Zhen

I put a spoiler. it's how it happened in the novel only. no one knows the script will go. So, if they follow the novel, chapter 35 marriage and chapter 45 they discover each other identity, which means discovering each other identity could still be a ways off.

in the novel, Pei Jiaya was a few years older than Wu Zhen, handsome, gentle, refined, tall, elegant,

in the drama, their identities became known to each other, there was plague god approaching Chang'an. Cat Lord went to fight it but Snake Lord was away, it was too much for Cat Lord, and Taoist Master Frost ran to find Mei Zhuyu for help, at first Mei Zhuyu declined to get involve because the Demon market was the jurisdiction of Cat Lord, but when the person said it was really serious, so he went with him. When he got there, he realized it was Wu Zhen who had fallen to the ground injured, he put on a powerful display and wiped out the plague god. Wu Zhen realized Mei Zhuyu is powerful Taoist, At the same time, Mei Zhuyu had learned from Taoist Frost that Wu Zhen was his friend, so he connected the dots and knew she was Cat Lord.

Also, interestingly, Mei Zhuyu jumped down from the tower gate and didn't injure his leg.
"He picked up Wu Zhen, and the moment he jumped off the city tower, Wu Zhen heard him say: "Your identity has always been one in my heart, and the others are ...... None of them matter."

this drama needs to be watched on big screen
Xu Kai eyelashes are so long and lush

I deleted my post because I don't' want to be caught in gossip.

no the rating was like 7.8 on day 1 of airing

yes, he was spirited and adorable personality in the novel but much younger, I think 17 yrs old, here in the drama he must be at least 25 yr old, since he calls Mei Zhuyu "Little Zhuyu." The actor did a great job. yes, in the novel, he was fascinated by demons and spirits and didn't know if they really existed. I enjoy his interaction with that snake.

In Episode 1, I really think Mei Zhuyu was utterly bedazzled by Wu Zhen’s beauty, gazing up at her as she stood tall by the open window.

It makes sense, Mei Zhuyu didn't want to land properly when he jumped down from the gate to expose his powers. Rewatching Ep. 1, I can see he tries to avoid using his powers in front of people.

Actually, Xu Kai though portraying calm and still almost emotionless Mei Zhuyu, still, his face, eyes, and body language speaks volumes.

I'm rewatching from Ep 1 on properly and it's amazing how much details you missed.

, meizhuyu is hanging around because he suspects Pei

Is the impending clash between Mei Zhuyu and Wu Zhen a rebirth of the Great Fire that "fell into decline and seclusion?" Is Mei Zhuyu the current Celestial master of the Changxi Palace and we know Wu Zhen is the current Cat Lord. of the Demon Underworld. Both of them were rescued as children in the Great Fire 18 yrs ago, she was 6 and he was 4, one rescued by the former Celestial master and the other by former Cat Lord. Mei Zhuyu has been taught all demons are evil and should be eradicated, they told him demons caused the Great file that killed his parents but these two fallen in love, how do they navigate love and duty when they are sworn enemies? Will Mei Zhuyu uncover more truths about Changix Palace that turns him against them, and he ally with Cat Lord?
