When the water has run dry, sit and watch for the rising clouds.

I have noticed for quite some time that some people on this page keep claiming that there is a romance, although not focused, in Shui Long Yin just on the basis of the book and the behind the scenes footage. Especially with this footage.

I would not spoil the context behind this particular scene or other scenes but i would like to say the scene is far from being a kiss scene, let alone it’s being a romantic scene. The Main character, that is Tang Lici (唐俪辞) played by Luo Yunxi (罗云熙), does not have any kind of loveline with any character in the drama titled Shui Long Yin/The Dragon Chant. And let us be real, does the drama not having any romance or lovelines make it any less valuable? Why does everything need to have romance in it? Dramas without romance or lovelines do exist and Shui Long Yin is one of them.

The book and the drama are the two separate works and should be looked upon as such. It is okay for an adaptation to be different, to not be faithful to the original source, it is quite common in c-ent. The plot of Shui Long Yin/The Dragon Chant as well as the characters have been rewritten by the screenwriter Lin Conghe while just retaining the core essence of the book.

The drama Shui Long Yin/The Dragon Chant is a Big-One-Male-Lead-Centic drama taking us to experience an epic journey of growth and redemption of Tang Lici (唐俪辞) in a different world. The drama also pioneers a new genre — “Xuanxia” a fusion of traditional martial arts (Wuxia, 武侠) with the grand fantasy elements (Xuanhuan, 玄幻) aspiring to take the best of the both: the boundless world building backed by the chinese mythology and the grounded sense of loyalty and honor found in the traditional martial arts stories. Which makes it completely different from the original source.

Kindly respect the drama the way it is designed without forcing out the narration of the book into it.

In addition, a particular female character appearing to be the "female lead" from the perspectives of the viewers would not honour them with the position of the leading actress.
