I am always always skeptical of xianxias and fantasy genre type of series. But this is actually not bad.

I love everything about it. The acting, cinematography, osts, chemistry, and color palette.
I love how they portrayed the characters.

Reba made Fengjiu's character more lovable and sympathetic. Fenghjiu's character can be seen as a spoiled child if not done right. But she made her be seen as a passionate, brave, resilient, and zealous person.

While Donghua's character, Vengo made him more humanly, we see Donghua as a haughty person who rules the world. A mighty person. That's why we can understand why he's cold and indifferent. When in fact he grew up that way. And he just hadn't found the person to be comfortable enough to be vulnerable.

The plot tho... although it follows the book. I wish there were more fight scenes. And I wish they explored the ending arc more. Esp, Miao Liu (what's her relationship with Donghua [I'm feeling they're twins like yin and yang]), and what happened during those 300 years of separation.

That's all nothing more to say. Just watch it. Although a bit slow burn (officially met at ep 24) still great. Just less fighting/action/adventure/cultivation. And more of romance and drama.

ps: ngl the timeline is confusing. I wished they'd write (2000 years later something like that lmao)
