Very entertaining, new approach, but could have been more
I love the begging and I love the end.I was so happy because it have a different approach to the whole back in time and revive stories.
The thing is, what a mess during the middle. It gets so repetitive, it gets confuse and it has a lot of unnecessary little plots.
It could have been amazing, but I had to lower the rate because I just got really tired during the drama. What a shame.
Good things: The FL is amazing. The production is definitely beautiful. Very interesting story. Good end.
Bad things: The story loses its track during the middle. I'm not sure if the ML it's the best for the role, he is definitely handsome though. The other characters are just there...

Best Xianxia of some years now
This drama is so amazing I don't even know how to describe.It's going to be in my heart right next to Ashes of Lovea and Lost you forever regarding the xianxias.
What's so good?
I love the cast, such good actors.
The pace of the story is great, sometimes very slow and beautiful, sometimes very fast and trilling.
The photography is amazing, the way the cameras capture every scene is beautiful.
The CGI it's one of the best I have seen.
The OST is so good, you are gonna remember the show only for it's music.
The story is very interesting, something new, keeps you wondering what is gonna happen next.
Of course, there are some things I wish could be better, like explore more Mofang and the King of Chimeis. But I will turn a blind eye on that.

Perfec perfect perfect
I just love this drama.Let's start by saying that for a short drama, it's better than a lot of longer dramas I watched.
The production, photography and camera angles are just to die for. Really, it's difficult to find something this beautiful and cool. Add to that amazing fight scenes!
I love the cast, omg, I really love the cast. They are such good actors and the characters are amazing. Zhao Yi Qin is ideal for his role.
About the OST, it's so cool, gives everything you need to feel the depth of the scenes.
Now, the whole vibe is amazing, mystery with dark elements, angst, anger and then some sweet and warm moments.
It's definitely a roller coaster for your heart, you get so evolved with the story and find good plot twists within. I really like the story and complexity of it all. Just one thing wrong here: I got a bit confuse by the whole branch and heart thing for some time, but ok, I think I understood it later.
This whole drama is very similar to Butterflied lover, but it's not the same director, so I got confuse about it, I could sewer it was the same.

A lot of sweet moments and beautiful declarations
I just finish rewatching this with a smile on my face.I know it's not perfect, specially because of the FL, that can be annoying for making silly fights or fool choices. Moreover, the capital politics is not the greatest moment, the best part of the drama is the first.
Even so, you have a lot of good things.
One of the best things is Caesar Wu, he is just perfect for the serious general.
I also adore the romance and the couple overall, you have a lot of sweet moments and some beautiful declarations. The couple dynamic it's interesting to watch, all the misunderstandings are solved, they have good chemistry and kisses, and I like the way that he defends her in so many situations.

It looks silly, but actually it's very good
I'm actually surprised by this drama. I thought I wouldn't like because I'm not really a fan of childish behavior or fool characters.But if you get pass the childish behavior of the FL in the beginning, you are gonna get a nice drama.
The story is pretty interesting, something different and gets more deep as it goes by.
The actors are very good, you can related to the characters, especially the He family.
The production is good, nice costumes and scenarios.
Overall, it is a good drama,

Amazing production but bad story
This drama shows exactly why Jianghu shouldn't get involved with palace politics, the result is disastrous.I have to say that the actors and production are amazing, excellent cast, cool fight scenes, very well made drama. Those are the only things that actually kept me going.
The problem I have here is with the story. If you are in the path for vengeance, why going to the capital and getting so famous, especially if you don't have good martial arts yet. I mean, would not be better just stay out of the radar?
Also, at the beginning the ML looked so cunning, but as the drama progress looks like he never was.
Because of the story, the drama is very dragging, so much unnecessary characters and moments.
And don't get me start about the end, it just makes me angry.

Let's kill the FL because of jealous - should be the name
Looks like all the show is about Xia Zi Xun and Mantian trying to kill the FL.Really, all the drama it's about they being ridiculous obsessed with hurting the FL because of the ML.
It's so bad, there must be a thousand dialogues about this. Especially related to the obsession of Zixun, he just allowed her to do all those things. And he knew Martian was trying to hurt the FL and did nothing!
And the ML is just a moron, never steeping up when needed. If he had a voice and stood up most of the problems wouldn't have happened.
He was also treating the FL really bad in so many moments, blaming her or avoiding her. Just take the part of that instrument for the demon clan, he left her take the blame, he could just say that he allowed her to take it.
Ah, and the romance? Pretty much non-existent.
The only good thing is the production and OST.
