I know what you mean but I was won over again by him finally acknowledging his feelings and defying his horrible brother. I do wish that he is more powerful though. He is after all the God of War…kind of a weak one TBH
Yeah, there’s all this foreshadowing about XunFeng - he’s highly sus to me

The gold bars looked like little breadsticks 🤣

- The crying scene between our couple when XLH told DFQC that the gap between them was too big 😭💔 excellent acting! 👏👏👏
- Now that DFQC got his feelings back, he better develop some EQ quickly! Otherwise he’s not going to clue into what XLH is really thinking.
- XunFeng is going to betray DFQC for sure! Keeping the Cheng Ding sword fragments for example..
- XLH showing more of her intelligence as she deduced what DFQC wanted to do in Lucheng City
- A commentor mentioned the possibility that in the mortal realm DFQC will actually marry Xie Wan Qing. I am suspecting that may be true since her fate poem said that her life will be ended by her husband on their wedding night. So maybe he will try to make that come true…😱
- My SLS is still strong! The way CH immediately jumped into the mortal realm after hearing that he and XLH will be married there 💔💔💔

Another awesome episode - thoughts on ep 19

You’re probably right. Most Kdramas are usually 16 eps and the longer ones 24 or more. So if they are doing 12 now, it’s probably 12 later…

Oh really? I wouldn’t mind a 2nd season but I hope they finish the first one well

I guess I didn’t explain myself well. I am not against XLH wanting to change DFQC by fixing his Love Tree. I just want her to acknowledge that some of his suffering was because of her doing too. Her lack of awareness of why he couldn’t sleep well for example was too clueless for me.
Most of the time, I’m not bothered by how naive XLH is because she is usually insightful and is intelligent in her own way.
Your explanation makes sense and I agree that we no longer see the sweet innocent XLH once she regains herself fully as Goddess Xiyun.

Yes! Poong is very smart too but he was humbled by his traumatic experience. I am looking forward to seeing him regain his confidence and together they make even more of a power couple!

XLH has definitely shown emotional intelligence throughout the show. Not only that, she’s also insightful. Even Rong Hao didn’t expect her to see through his fake Chang Heng scheme.

Episode 4 was more tense as the stress hit closer to home! I’m liking Eun Woo more as she displays an insightful side and high EQ. I also enjoyed seeing how the Gye Su Clinic family rallied together to save a life.
Now the wait for ep 5 😢

So true - Esther does look very pretty in this show. She also looked lovely in Moonlight. I just expect DFQC and CH to melt whenever she gazes up at them. Definitely brings out the protective instinct in me 😁

By the end of ep 18, it’s obvious XLH deserves a shout out for having courage. She faced down the ferocious Ying Zhou beast, she did not get intimidated by the mean fairies, she handled herself whenever the Haishi City baddie and his sidekick appeared, she didn’t cave under the emperor’s torture to confess that she was a spy, she dove to the bottom of the Memory Loss river, and most importantly she completely ignored most of DFQC’s orders… that girl is brave as heck！

That’s not my point at all. Of course everyone has the right to emotions and believe me, I’m not hating on XLH. I like her and I do want her to do her thing to heal DFQC. But I also just want her to show a bit more self awareness and realize that some of his torment at that time (ep 17) was because of her doing.

Agree. Of course I want her to continue on her quest to heal him. It’s more that she is still portrayed as this clueless “oh why is he not sleeping well? And not connecting his current torment to what she was doing. I like XLH but I would be disappointed if they don’t showing her becoming more aware and emotionally more matured

Yes! Thank you!

No, I realize what the theme is all about. I only wanted XLH not to be the usual tropey FL.

I accept that but I would prefer her to add some awareness to her natural instinct.

I wouldn’t call her dumb, more super naive because of her age and sheltered life. XLH did display some EQ in past episodes. However after all her recent experiences and with DFQC so clearly telling her about why he’s suffering and why he cannot regain his feelings, it would have been nice to see some character growth and some hesitation that maybe what she was doing may not be best for him. Maybe it is too much to expect the FL to think about the big picture…

I agree that she is too naive about Jieli. The first time, fine l - she had no clue but to defend her over and over again. It was hypocritical for XLH to tell DFQC that it was wrong from someone to break into another’s house but that was exactly what Jieli did. She even lied to cover up for Jieli.
