I am glad you said that about the king of heaven, I was going to ask that question. I thought that is what he really wanted the phoenix for and not what he told his son, so that she wouldn't be tainted by the other realms. Man is there a good heavenly emperor or king in any xianxia drama, lol?

Curious for those who have seen the previews for the next couple of episodes:

I was reading the text from the previews in the comments and they said RXZ went to Wuhan. I remember someone commenting about how they think RXZ might die. Do you think he will die from this? especially before clearing up the TT daughter thing?

which sucks cause this drama didn't need a villian....it was going so well and it aggravates me they took this turn....we didn't need this storyline, the writer imo, screwed this up big time

That is probably the biggest reason I prefer modern K Dramas over Modern C Dramas. The flow of K Dramas are such much better for the most part that is. I mean you do see a lot of last minute fixes etc, but they screw up nearly as much as C Dramas when it comes to modern dramas.

I agree. I actually had the utmost respect for RXZ and appreciated what he did for his apprentices and the class, etc. I thought he did really good things, by helping that one village with their medicinal herbs and helping the poor without receiving anything in return. I guess I have been looking at him all wrong and it actually pisses me off. I am utterly disheartened now, by this whole story, that I don't even know if I want to finish it.

I am so afraid of that, too. If that happens, as much as I like Zhao Lu Si, I will hate this drama, the writer, etc. They can't them a couple and then do this crap and end it like that.

I agree. Matter of fact, after that it really made me change my view, whereas I thought he might be a possible father for TT, now I am pretty sure he isn't. And why didn't they address that, especially after RXZ told WSD that he had told everyone TT was his daughter. Ugh!!!

Wow Lu Si can sure bring tears to my eyes every single time! I hope they resolve this really really soon, I can't take this anymore.

I am really enjoying this drama. I don't know why but for some reason this is really keeping my attention. I have so many dramas I am watching right now, but this one and Gen Z are keeping my undivided attention.

I just started it last night and I am currently starting episode 7, and I really don't like the mom. There are a few others I don't like, but right now the mom is the worst.

The actor, Zhu Jun Lin, is doing an excellent job of portraying LQ for all of us to hate his character so much. He really is making us feel his jealousy, hate, evil intent, etc. What an amazing job! Actually all the actors are doing really well in their roles in this drama, I am quite impressed with these lesser known actors.

One of my favorite lines and I have a few in this drama for sure.

wouldn't that be interesting.... I just hate this waiting, especially because we are only getting one episode again tomorrow, Monday can't come soon enough, although I am not sure if I am ready for it to end, lol

He could also not have wanted to tell her or mentor her himself, because of his wife. TT could be from an extramarital affair.

I agree he didn't have to say that she was his daughter. And in actuality it doesn't matter if she isn't the descendant of Jiang Acupuncture Sect, has she not proven herself and taken the classes and lessons and even applied them and helped people. I think she is earning enough merits, etc and she is doing a damn fine job of it. What right does LQ have to come in and say she doesn't deserve to be there? He actually went to school got a degree but couldn't get a job, how is he any better. His friends RTZ and TT helped him out with a place to stay, RTZ begged his dad to let him work at the Medical facility and this is how LQ repays them. WTF, DUDE!!! If anyone right now, does not have the right to be there it is so him... And dammit he should have stood up to his dad, that was pathetic too.

I am so aggravated by this and to see that this drama was for the most part a very feel good and happy drama and now we got all this angst and lying and ominous story, please, seriously, can we get back to them just being happy and us learning about TCM and them helping others.

I think the writer went way to extreme and out of character with LQ. This has just been insanely crazy and it wasn't necessary.

I can totally see what your saying, maybe she does know he is covering for TT, but like you said he didn't share his plans with her and this was just such a huge bomb to drop without any prior notification. Should have seen something like that coming when they were celebrating their 30th anniversary and reminiscing about old times. There is that foreshadowing again popping up.

Yeah I hope she doesn't become depressed. This is such a huge blow to her, because she always puts others first and now she will feel she is the one causing all the problems.

I finally finished but man, I don't think there is any saving LQ at this point.

I think the biggest thing that bothers me the most about this episode is the LL doesn't trust her husband. That she honestly believes he would cheat on her and have an illegitimate daughter. Even if I hadn't seen any spoilers, I have the utmost confidence and belief that RXZ would never have ever cheated on his wife, yet LL does not believe in her husband enough. He for the most part is a righteous person, he only tells white lies to get his patients to believe in themselves and it is for their own good. I don't know how anyone couldn't see he was doing this now to protect TT, because he honestly believes in her. **Also, when he came from that get together with old friends/classmates and his wife asked if he saw Little Lark and he was all quiet and didn't say anything. I think Little Lark possible told RXZ that TT may not have been the true successor, just a thought**

I am thinking though more and more with the belief that WSD is TT's real father, the reason being is I see foreshadowing with when his wife was talking to her MIL and saying how she doesn't think she could handle something like this if it happened to her.

Also, what did those documents say that LQ threw on the ground? That is what I want to know. If it said TT wasn't the successor, than why didn't it have on there who her real parents were.

Ok I had to stop at 20:51 mark of today's episode..... Why did this drama get all dark and ominous all the sudden? I thought this was suppose to be a nice slice of life, learning about TCM, etc. Now we have an apprentice who is trying to cover up their tracks with a murderous intent. Argh, I don't know if I want to continue this episode....

lol yes the illogical ones do get a bit extreme....

I would hope the writer wouldn't be stupid enough to let us enjoy TT and RTZ together and then actually have them be biological siblings. It is ridiculous and someone even mentioned that if that "lie" had been true, then it probably wouldn't have passed censorship.
