We love YunLu too and if you haven't seen it yet, check out Love is Sweet(2020) which was their first drama together.
LOL! Since you mentioned the blood coughs, here is a fun fact: TTEOTM's LYX is the blood spitting king with 60 blood spits in 40 episodes beating out Cheng Yi's 56 blood spits in 59eps of LAR. 🤣🤣🤣
✨️🌝 Random TTEOTM and Drama Questions 🌝✨️25. If you could introduce one new drama to your friends…
To be honest, a lot of my friends have never seen a cdrama so as much as I'd like to recommend TTEOTM to them, it being a xianxia might be rough for a first watch. Several of them have seen kdramas and mentioned they loved Six Flying Dragons so I'd recommend the historical political masterpiece Nirvana in Fire(2015). It has an excellent cast, great wuxia scenes, topnotch cinematography, and still one of the most brilliant writing ever in TV drama history to date. Watching the characters' journey was gripping, touching, and drove me literally to the edge of my seat. Last but not the least, Mei Changsu is the only one that rivaled Aragorn's decades long special place in my heart so that goes to show how much I loved his character. 🤣🤣🤣
I couldn't enjoy this show. The ML lead just looked so...gaunt, Not my ideal image of a powerful deity 🤣 I…
Adding on to Chuntian, LYX is naturally slim with a ballerino's build (coz he was one before). It is hard for him to gain weight quickly. However, he heard many people pointing out his weight loss so he made efforts to take that constructively and gain more weight. If you look at his recent photos/vids in Weibo Night, LoL gaming event and Douyin Night, he has done that.
In TTEOTM, as a hostage prince, it was fitting that he was frail. As he gained more power becoming the Demon God, his acting skills made up for the physical bulk he's lacking. There is a reason why the Chinese call him the costume drama god. If you wanna give TTEOTM another shot, that'd be great coz this is one of the best xianxias to date but if it really doesn't appeal to you, that's perfectly fine, too. 😁
Yes, the novel did from Ch.60-62 including the brief background on ZMxAZhu. It didn't contain this extra TH plot…
This would have been ideal. I wouldn't have minded an alternate ending if they wanted to go big and they hit the mark. Unfortunately, they just made some parts messy without enough payoff for the ending between MXL and XXC. 🤷♀️
Does the novel explain which moment in the current timeline MXL and XXC meet in the finale? I think in ep 24,…
Yes, the novel did from Ch.60-62 including the brief background on ZMxAZhu. It didn't contain this extra TH plot so everything past ep.36 in the drama didn't happen there.
Here is a summary: After the da gege cycle was finished, XXC dies and his soul fragment finally combines with ZM in the lava. It wasn’t until the memories belonging to XXC merged with his primordial spirit that he understood many things. XXC's death in the timeline causes MXL's rebirth since he gives back her chaos energy. While TMS was forcing MXL to do the 3rd bow, DLZM emerges from the abyss to the horror of the Alliance. He goes directly to MXL who recognizes him as XXC yet not XXC. She also recalls she is Ling’er and also AZhu. They embrace. TMS goes on to say that if he can suppress ZM once, he can do it again. He attacks DL ZM but MXL blocks all his attacks. TMS get his fate pen to rewrite destiny again. MXL rushes to stop him and he aims for her heart with the pen and she bleeds but he holds back most of his strength at the last second and her attack on his divine channel hit instead. DLZM hold swaying MXL and TMS could see he can never separate them. NXY mortal body dies but TMS just returned to his divine post to slumber for thousands of years. MXL and DLZM easily climb the God slaying ladder to seek more answers from the Time Keeper. Everything is cleared up and they get their happy ending after defying fate. Epilogue tells the story after they have kids in the demon realm with Alliance members in attendance for their eldest son's birthday party. Some naughty2 between DLZM and MXL were written too. LOL!
Lulu is a great reason for watching TTEOTM and yes these two are hard to top.
