and even worse, he used her own artefact to trap her, despicable emperor....

This drama has made me experience a roller-coaster of emotions but in the best way. I got invested super early in the characters and plot and have been loving the journey 💜 The visuals and chemistry have SERVED 🔥🔥🔥

Lmao same, in truth it takes guts to play such a character, bro has my admiration 👏

💯💯💯 it's why we love them and it still hurts 😭

Yup, very wise decision, wish I'd done the same😭😭😭😭

lmfao help I'm having the pre series finale restless syndrome 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Cause his poison has relapsed when he saved MY and her dad from that pagoda trap

I know, but I'd still take that over a lame sad ending 😭😭😭😭😭

Yes! 2025 has given us a lot of gems, but LITC has a special place in my heart already 💜💜💜

From what I know you usually need a VIP subscription first, since the express package is an add-on that lets you unlock the rest of the episodes early for that specific drama. The price isn’t fixed — it varies by show and region — but it’s usually around a few extra dollars on top of the VIP, I usually pay between 2.99 - 3.99 USD additionally to VIP and SVIP feature. But to be honest I never tried buying just the express since if I'm already watching the drama I'm having the VIP subscription minimum, so I can't be 100% sure

Oh yes, that could be it, good reasoning!

me too!! I posted a review a few days ago and wanted to edit it and instead of clicking save I clicked delete 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Yeah, the phrasing does sound weird — I caught that too. The only thing that makes sense to me right now is that he doesn’t want MY to see it because maybe the whole self-burning and reappearing part was actually done by JBZ himself. I’m not totally sure of course… unless they’re planning to hit us with some wild revelation later, because that whole bit was definitely confusing.

Well, it's a good thing we get express tomorrow so we'll know regardless

I think he’s got a full self-sacrifice plan brewing, and it probably started when Ming Xin mentioned that sky-swallowing formation thing. He wanted Ming Yi to believe he’s still drowning in resentment toward his master — that every time he sees her, it reopens the wound. I’m pretty sure he suppressed the heart imprint because he knows if she noticed the portrait restored (which I think JBZ restored it), she’d sense something was off immediately. We can already see Ming Yi realizing he’s up to something, just not what exactly. And I love that his allies from Jixing Abyss still have faith in him — they trust he took that crown prince position for a reason.

Same, I know the actors said in an interview it's a happy ending but I won't calm down until I see it 🙏

yup, Youku sucks for this

yup, and considering ep.33 is scheduled to air anyways, it's basically 3 episodes 😭😭😭😭😭😭 it's a crime

Lmao I think that’s exactly why he cut ties with her — he knew she’d dive straight in, and he’s convinced it’s too dangerous for her. I’m so with you on those hero-complex protagonists who’d rather self-destruct than team up. Like bro, hello?? The math is mathing — your survival rate skyrockets if you just work together 😭💀

I'm relieved it's over tomorrow lmao LITC is going to be one of my top favourites of this year but damn, when I enjoy a drama I get too emotionally attached to the characters and that's a whole hurricane of anxiety
