Even after the 2nd Time, I Still Enjoy This!
I love this drama, the story line, the cast (of course), the chemistry, the costume and overall production of this drama. You can tell if they put a lot of budget and efforts for year 2017 it's above the average.It's been quite sometime after I watched this drama, but I'd rewatched this for couple of times, and I still enjoy it every time. I like the fact on how Yuan Ling & Feng Qing falls in love at the first time, their story was sweet. But, I like it more when they met for the second time how they end up falling in love again.
From the beginning, I'm expecting that there'll be pretty much long misunderstanding but that doesn't stop YL & FQ showing off chemistry on screen and it's fun to watch. I also like how the relationship changed on the 2nd part between YL and his brothers.
It's an enjoyable drama to watch, and worth my time. And, of course William Chan is just really good here ;)

Where do I go from here????
LOVE!!! LOVE!!! LOVEEEEE!!!!Story- Although the story isn't really new, it will still make you stay up late and would want to watch the next episode! There were scenes that's a little bit slow at the latter part but then again you still don't wanna miss every single one of them.
Actors- My first time watching both main leads in a drama. At first, I don't find the ML handsome at all, but after a few eps you will find that he's really charming and he's suited for the GOD OF WAR character in terms of built and demeanor. Also, his fight scenes are one of the best I've seen so far, badass and Godlike especially in ep. 52! dang!!!! I was clapping and screaming at the same time! wow! Also, just when I thought I've seen the most heartbreaking and passionate "Wo ai ni" in the cdrama world, here comes the SS tier scene (ep. 55)!!! The way he said it, it's poignant and yet so beautiful at the same time. The main villain's acting could've been better, aside from him I think all of them did really great especially the 2ML. My only complain is the kissing scenes, I mean.. c'mon now let's give a little more passion, it wouldn't hurt to at least open their mouth a little. lol
Music- I love the ost of this drama!
Rewatch value- yup definitely will rewatch while waiting for other drama in my waitlist to air.

Beautiful drama
This drama is for intelligent or mature people. It so has every element from romance to suspense and tragedy. Very interesting drama. You get hooked up till you finish. The costume is simply outstanding. You get to see all stupid hair dangling in front of female to look beautiful in other drama but here it’s just neat and tidy. I really don’t know why but it really annoys me to see characters with two strands of hair dangling on their face.Lastly it’s master piece drama I’m surprised it’s rating is less compared to my expectation. Make lead and female leads are just outstanding and let’s not forget the secondary character they too had great role. The director got all character to shine and the acting performance is touched my heart. This drama is not light and fluffy it’s just outstanding . Once u start u end up doing nothing just keep watching till you turn into zombie. I had my sleepless night due to this drama . I never wrote review for 5 years and this is my first review. Took the effort to log in n sign in. Please watch it .

Sorcery with bad hair days and bad patterns
LLIT infused fantasy and sorcery elements with a fictional branch of the Western Wei Yuan dynasty. Male characters are clad in voluminous, pattern-challenged costumes. The male and female characters wear overt head dress or braided hat hair.Story:
A very creative plot about Time intervention, with some shortfalls. The story could have been tighter, and effective with three dozen episodes.
Acting Cast:
The actors delivered solid acting performances. William Chan and Cecilia Liu were the group leaders, but Zhang Ryan and Xu Jiawei walked away with the awards. Zhang Ryan (Yuan Ming) receives the Wide Range of Acting Award, as the villain Prince. Xu Jiawei (Yuan Li) receives the Congenial Character Award, as undercover Prince/Guardian of the Transformations.
Music:
The incidental music was impressive, and facilitated the activity on screen.
Rewatch Value
I am not in a hurry to relive the drama, but I might attempt it for William Chan, Xu Jiawei (Yuan Li) and Gong Jun (Yuan Che) only.
Overall score 7.0 - Good production values in directing, editing, acting, set design and cinematography! Costume and hair designs were over the top, and a constant distraction. Writing was average. The best surprise was the ending. Overall, the episodes stretched Time. This drama should have started out the gate with eight weekly episodes, to keep the viewers' attention span.

Okay so the drama was a good drama I think the storyline was good but it doesn’t make sense. This is a spoiler to the ending so stop if you don’t want to know.
The ending... I’m pretty sure the female and male lead was not supposed to be together. Although she collected the stones, that was for her and the stone watcher to be able to go back. They entered the portal and somehow the female lead ended up in the other universe with the male lead. And they go on. While the stone watchers loved forgot him when he went back as well. So everything was confusing, and it just doesn’t make sense. I might be a little negative towards the ending because It seems like I don’t want them to be together.
I also feel bad for the second male lead who ended up all by him up in the palace :’(. Don’t get me wrong this drama was good it made me cry but bad and unreasonable ending
