A little more than so-so drama, started promising

I have to be honest I probably set an unusually high expectations with this drama. It started promising but there are a number of things I don't like about this drama. Before that, let me enumerate some good things about the drama that made me want to finish it.
Pros for me:
1. Setting. I love the details of the set especially in the place where they wish on flower festival.
2. Not the usual love triangle story. The third party is not annoying (prince)
3. All of the characters have serious thing to do. Im getting tired of watching arrange or forced marriage dramas so this is sort of fresh air.
4. I love how characters cooperate with each other.
5. I want to see how they'll do their task

Cons:
1. Nasheng is cute to look at but too chatty. She is cheerful by nature but too annoying in the first few episodes.
2. I don't feel the chemistry of the leads towards the end. I keep skipping their scenes. Their interaction is boring.
3. I was expecting a cold, ruthless Ml. And here they give us the typical "perfect" guy.
4. Fl becomes damsel in distress. I hate it. Hahaha. Also idk but yukee chen is boring in this drama.
5. ML was too strong. Remember he is practicing art of mirror or iirc separation because its already at the progressive stage. But then, after he suffers backlash, he will just get healed by the diviner then use power again. Illogical. I normally forgive this kind of plothole but it's repetitive. (Except the end ofc)
6. Ending is messy. On one scene he is alive then later he disappears. And then again he is there. (I think they shuffled the order of the scenes?) Why dont they just make him disappear on point?
