Gosh the villains in this story are just allowed to hang around and run away instead of getting killed. The leads just let them slip away so easily. Not much happening tomb raiding wise in the jungle and underground river part. Instead their getting pick off by an oppponent they could have easily killed off.

This is isn't Goodbye My Princess where despite all the betrayals and misunderstandings you still root for the leads to end up together. I'm only at episode 13 and I'm so done with the lead couple.Somehow I just want them to scram and go to some faraway place and let the story continue without them. After knowing the ending, I just have to drop this.

Gosh ML is so arrogant and high strung. Sorry not interested in their us against the world love story. The ML is an annoying sappy idealist with a boatload of past baggage that has grandiose dreams of world peace. Watching him is such a chore. I commend the drama though for having one of the BEST production value and cinematography that I have ever seen. In this aspect this drama gets top marks. I'm just not sold on the lead couple love story.

Love the OST of this drama. They were the one of the first Chinese songs I had memorized.

The beginning OST is one of the better ones I've heard recently almost as memorable as the one in Eternal Love. It really sets the mood for the viewers.

The ending was kinda expected. Based on her Shifu's character that was his plan all along. I don't know what all the ruckus is about. Mu Jiu Chuan is clearly not a vacillating and sentimental character. I was not liking the story from 20-25 but it picked up towards the end and I'd say this is a must watch. I want a season 2. They could make Zhao Ge's mom as villain.

I wanna see her in a costume drama or any drama with Yibo. Love their chemistry. Very natural

Ju Jing Yi really should take advantage of this second chance and finally lock lips with SWL. It would be such a waste of chemistry.

Goodness your talking as if Liu Yi Fei is starving and needs Hollywood to stay afloat. She doesn't need it and neither do most Chinese stars except for Fan Bingbing. I don't like the CCP but I cannot fault LYF when she shows supports for her own country. A stark contrast to Hollywood stars who busy themselves hating on their own.

I need him back in a costume drama. I love his performance in Secret of Three Kingdoms and also liking his portrayal in Ice Fantasy.

Wow LYF and Lu Han in the same drama. If true I'm in. No idea who the other 2 female casts are so I'm guessing ZHW is the FL.

LYF in costume is always a must watch.

Chu Ling Long is full of hot air. Reading the synopsis you'd think she's some sort of cultivation genius.

The only reason I could finish this is because of Lu Han otherwise I'd have dropped this pronto. ML is so weak. Even when he started to gain power and ascend cultivation he relapses into a useless tool. The worst bit of this drama is the ML falling into schemes and getting accused of something again and again. It got irritating to a point. Writer has zero originality and turn the ML into a pathetic Cinderella character.

I'll give this drama a 9.0 if in the end they kill the ML's mother/empress, her maid, her nephew, his future parents in law, the weak head of the 6 academies etc. Why did they put so many unlikeable characters in this drama?

So many petty and annoying people you just want dead in this drama. This is like some Mexican telenovela meets cultivation with Lu Han playing the hapless heroin who's the target of endless scheming.

Oh dear this thing went downhill fast. Starting from Wu Youdao turning batshit and going on a killing rampage. So crazy they make it sound he deserve an ounce of sympathy. The story pretty much goes down the drain from this point on. So disappointed because it started well.

I just hope this one gets tied up in the end better than the last 2 Novoland dramas. I'm still left hanging by Tribes and Empires until now.

I am enjoying Dance of the Phoenix but seeing some clips of this drama I can tell it has better production value and more substantial plot. It also showing on TV so that's a plus.

That's a laughable commentary when Dance of the Phoenix, The Heiress and Love and Redemption are airing right now not to mention some office dramas that just aired to satisfy modern sensibilities.
