I just want to give our demon fetus a hug

I'm watching on YOUKU. I was waiting for Netflix France but still no release date and since I follow many social media c-dramas and k-dramas, I started encountering spoilers. Now, I'm just waiting for the final 2 episodes on Tuesday.
I'm a fan of Xantia and Wuxia genres in general and was patiently waiting for a new blockbuster. TTEOTM does not disappoint. However, the trauma in this story is heart wenching. I find myself wanting to become the Demon God just to avenge the ML. That's how frustrating this series is on the mind. Luckily, there are bits of love crumbs sprinkled throughout to heal but then bam! -the wounds are reopened. The character development is well written even for minor characters. The costumes including the hairstyles for the different timelines and different clans are spectacular and are a step up from typical Xantia with more colors, textures, and even braids. I love the chemistry between the couples.
I'm hoping and holding out for a pure happy ending for both our leads since I think they both deserve it after ALL OF THIS TRAUMA and it seems the main message is that only you can truly say who you are inside despite the hand you're delt (fate). Although, there is still plenty of room in the last 2 episodes for a typical bittersweet or even 100% tragic ending.
I could not give it 10 stars because some of the editing is wonky starting from episode 30ish. There are times where the actors are either teleporting between scenes or some characters and their stories have just been dropped between timelines. (Yes, I know about the 40 ep law but I feel some of the repetitive lines or redundant thoughts could have been removed to keep or clôture other character arcs.)
*PS: I've really appreciate the extra production videos on YOUKU. Everyone seems to really enjoyed making this series and the direction seem very kind and even open to suggestions. I watch these when waiting for new episodes.
