Episode 14, you can find it on You Tube. Yue Mi was facing Tian Qi when she saw the arrow coming at Tian Qi's back. She rushed in front of his back to fight off the arrow, but the arrow has devil power from Wu Han, and shattered her God core, so she died. Tian Qi could have killed Wu Han, but Yue Mi told him not to make Shanggu hate him. Then Wu Han lied blamed Yue MI's death on Tian Qi. Before Yue Mi died in Tian Qis arms, she confessed her love to him and how tough it was for her to be friends with someone she loved. She also told him she was aware that he was in love with Shanggu. Tian Qi told her that he was aware of her feelings for him but pretended not to know for fear of losing her. He said he was selfish and greedy and did not deserve her love, but she said she gets to decide if he deserves it or not. But in later episodes, even though Tian Qi will always love Shanggu, but he also displayed how much he cared about Yue Mi. Tian Qi was blinded by Shanggu. Had Yue Mi not died, eventually, Tian Qi would have reciprocated her love because Shanggu only loved Bai Jue and her feelings for Tian Qi as her big brother. As Jian Yuan, he realized even Shanggu as Hochi, she chose Bai Jue as Qing Mu over him. Yue Mi, I think would wait for eternity for Tian Qi. I don' t think Tian Qi realized how much he really loves Yue Mi until after she died. Yue Mi died saying she was happy because she finally confessed her love to him and to be in his arms. Yue Mi's last moment she cared about the mortals and told Tian Qi not to let them die. Her last wish was for Tian Qi to take care of himself.

Despite the many tragic fates in ALP, it is also filled with heroism, love, and triumph.

you're not used to all the user "creativity" on MDL yet?

Portraying both the "playful and mischievous golden retriever bad boy" and the "cold and aloof black cat" showcases two extremes of character portrayals and demonstrates versatility. Actually, I think his character portrayals are way more depth and range than that, but that's just me.

This is my view. What romance movie has no romantic conflict? The premise of "Wonderland of Love" is built on the characters' differing values and approaches, much like real-life relationships. Their conflict is at the core of this drama, which never loses focus on it and ultimately reconciles it, showing a clear understanding of the narrative structure.

no problem. you are different than me. thanks, and have a great day!

PS: the stoic and detached Bai Jue found everything boring. He was a man of solitude. Tian Qi said to him, "you better not have fallen for Shanggu, to which Bai Jue said, "how boring."

yes yes we all have our opinions. forgive me if I loosely used the word "bashing', it's your opinion. I don't find ALP boring one bit, for me there was no boring moment, so when someone says it's boring, I just want to offer my opinion. I'm glad you enjoying MM. It's #1 web drama right now.

bashing was a loose choice of words I regretted using and deleted it. I have a tendency to use that word too much. I respect your opinion but when you write an opinion, it's natural to respond, in case someone has never watched ALP, they may think it's really boring. It's no different than if someone comes here to say MM is *** and fans, rightly so, will respond with a different opinion. I'm not the one who brought up ALP. I don't "blindly worship" anything in life.

MM fans respond to opinions of MM and ALP fans respond to opinions of ALP (' ALP was such a drag", "hard to watch", "quite boring", " Shanggu Bai Ju - pretty boring" ) to balance out perspectives.

no problem, if it's boring to you. I find a lot of things boring too. Just wanted to describe Bai Jue why he might be boring and why the tragedies might be hard to watch. I don't like mentioning other dramas, unless it's brought up.

Bai Jue's personality in ALP was supposed to be emotionless, a god who Xuanyi said he thought had no emotions and could never love anyone. His character was cold, aloof and straightforward. When he made a joke in his cold manner, his Qinlin was shocked. He went from hating females, awkward around relationships. After he met Shanggu, he slowly started to change and eventually discover what love is. His nicknames in the drama were ice cube and poker face. He was a loner, and he said to Shanggu he would stay a loner forever, but his destiny was changed by Shanggu's love. ALP is filled with tender and exquisite moments, and delightful humor, in an ethereal atmosphere. XK, ZDY, LXY, and JX played two completely different personalities in part 1 and part 2 of the drama.

"ALP is an epic tale of divine love, sacrifice, suffering, tragedy, duty, trials and tribulations, transformations, rebirth, personal growth, heartache, loss, enduring love, and destiny, set against an ethereal backdrop, reflecting classic works."

no that's not what I mean. He's an older actor so he's been acting a very long time mostly supporting roles, but I've only seen him in two dramas. He just has an aura about him when he plays these kinds of imposing characters, he catches my attention. most people don't comment on these kinds of actors.

I like the actor Han Dong who plays Zhen Yu here. I know him from SAF6 and thought his performance there was really good, so he stands out to me. He uses more body movements in this drama, and I really like the way he performs it. He's really good at portraying characters with imposing aura, and he has the figure for it. His performance here is so different, completely different vibe, that's why it took me a while to figure out it was him, but I kept thinking he looks so familiar.

Qi Feng grabs her by the neck in ep 25 too. Later FY grabs QF's neck. Strangulation seems to be common thing.

In a Möbius loop (as in Sword and Fairy 6), there is a single timeline that continuously repeats. This means you cannot go back in time to change the future because there is only one ongoing path. The Möbius strip, which has no beginning or end, symbolizes this concept—you always return to the starting point. I don't think Chinese dramas uses theory of Mobius except SAF6.

In Parallel time, you can create a different timeline with a different future. When a character makes a decision, it creates two separate timelines: one where they choose option A and another where they choose option B, each playing out independently.

What exactly did Bai Jue mess up? That he by accident created Qing Mu? ALP is not behind anyting, it's its own story, nothing to do with this one, so comparing it makes no sense. It's only valid if the dramas are a continuation of the story, or same cast, but it's neither.

I don't care what kind of ending as long as it'd done right. For me, SAF6 the tragedies although sad, but they are moving and inspiring. SAF6 ending the storytelling is unique and intriguing and leave lasting impression. The ending to me was one of reunion, hope, and new beginnings.

Xu Kai is a natural at bringing to life that aura of Bai Jue. Beyond the acting, he has the appearance and demeanor of what you think of Bai Jue. Bai Jue's nicknames were Ice Cube and Poker Face. Xuanyi, former true god of chaos said of him - "Bai Jue hates females the most. He won't even let a female mosquito come near him. I once thought he has no emotions and he can't fall in love with anyone. He was a cold-blooded merciless god of war." I'm not sure why Bai Jue didn't let Shanggu in on their plan to trap Xuanyi. Perhaps Bai Jue didn't wnat Xuanyi to pry into her mind and find out he has a weaknes for her though he won't admit it to himself yet, he knows he has felt emotions. Shanggu's anger at not being told in advance and doubting Bai Jue feelings for her reminded me of JX mad at HT in ABAY - "and i'm just one of your pawns."
