It's time to time travel

After swallowing the lotus and enduring the brutal climb up the stairs to meet the god who can grant him any wish but for the price, he has to travel through time for his goal. Xie Xue Chen wants to save Mu Xuan Ling so she is living in the present and to do so the god will transport him any place back in time for him to try and achieve his goal. The catch is that each time he goes to the past his energy gets weaker, his spirit can only travel and not his current body, he is not allow to change the fate of others specifically, and he can only live through a day in the past for that day he chooses. So the first date he thinks he can fix things so she can live is when he could have killed He Xian Wo in the forest. The same fate happens and he fails. He tries to go back further and rescue a young Mu Xuan Ling in the dark abyss but she refuses to leave with him. He fails again. He goes back to the day she was saved by who we thought was Zhao Ming but turns out it was him Xie Xue Chen all along. It ends on a cliffhanger as the night approaches when Sang Qi leads a army to kill the Gao family and took Mu Xuan Ling with him.

Kind of a filler episode.

This episode basically just covered the two subplots of (a) Hao Chen's traumatization and slow recovery with the help of Hao Ming, Xu Yan and Yan's Grandmother and (b) Lin Tao blackmailing Qiao Lin into leaving Yy Yi Ming and returning to the scumbag. The latter sub-plot is pretty disgustingly evil on the part of Lin Tao. Shen, Sr., is still in the hospital, being watched by Yu Lan. Not too much happens on the main villain plot of Qu taking over Jinda other than it's clear the bad guys intend to tear the Shen family down even further. No one in the Shen side currently seems to be able to do anything regarding the corporate battles since they are pre-occupied with dealing with all the trauma they've been. hit with.

Exciting but flawed episode.

A lot of stuff happens in this episode, some good, a lot of bad. The bad is not completely unexpected as we are reaching near the penultimate episode, which traditionally in drama story arcs is when everything looks the worst for the good guys. So viewers at this point in the series just have to be ready to suffer through one gut punch after another. On the good side of events, Yan and HM definitely are 'in sync' as a couple now and she steps up to help his(her) family. On the quality of the episode, it is uneven. It has a few really bad plot contrivances that are glaring. The two worst, by far, both involve Han Wei Ping. First off, how on earth did HE happen to stumble upon Hao Chen after the latter ran out of the car and went and sat at some random park bench? Second, after Hao Ming & police show up to rescue Hao Chen, how on earth is it that Han Wei Ping is not arrested? He is shown wandering around completely free. That makes zero sense and is a giant, gaping hole in the story. There are a few other annoying plot holes as well (in particular in the way HWP is able to access HM's home, computer & safe so easily) but those two just really jump off the screen as dumb. On the _good_ side of episode quality, the episode ends with some brilliant emotional acting by Yu Lan as she implores her husband to wake up.

A promising outcome

Let me start by saying that im not against the Murderer. What kind of friends are these people anyway? Seriously. Im very much concerned as to what Jay could have possibly done as well. The case of getting trickier and more complicated. But trust in Jade and Kamin to handle this. I love their professionalism, their expressions and how they react under pressure. Especially if that said pressure is coming from work. If you've watched today's episode, you'll understand my frustration as to who says that to a fellow Officer in your station?! Uh.In this episode we also got to experience a little worry, shocked, happy romantic moments, friends deciding whom to trust, and fright. Im really loving Dunk's acting. He's facial expressions to everything Jade is funny and very real. I want to know more about his background because what was with that face? Has no ever done that for you Kamin? Cant wait for the next episode.
