I read the novel so that's where I'm coming from.
The story is just completely different from the novel, in fact its very laughable.. I don't even know where to start.

Anyway I'll start with the lead Mu Chen, I feel like the character portrayed in the drama is 180 of the novel one which bugs me the most! The very reason I liked the novel was the lead being cold hearted and ruthless, whilst in the drama... he's downright childish there are scenes he could just downright kill the enemy but he just ran.. its ridiculous!! especially in xianxia world setting, where killings is everywhere!

Luo li character is okay even though it feels like its a tad bit too "warm". Afaik she's supposed to be like yandere type but yea whatever then mr producer. Secondly, the appearance is disappointing, I mean she's supposed to be silver haired, black dressed and stuff but here black hair (how hard is it to dye the hair?!) and the flowery white blue dresses...
I dropped the series in the middle of 26th, I'm amazed I could actually get myself to watch that many.
I must've been so bored
