Then, what happened to the brother Xiao Kai Yan if Li Nan and Xiao Kai Yan are the same person instead of two different persons?

Xiao Kai Yan =>> the internal traitor who's mastered voidheart codex technique and killed the old Xiao couple and everyone else in the sword manor.

Senior Li Nan = Hooded R man / RESET ?

But isn't it strange that Nangong Xiao Yi suddenly turned up to give them cookies ???

so, it's finally revealed -

hello! Can't believe the screenwriters write such a plot! High and almighty immortals killing mere helpless mortals in a small village!!!

Hell! Why do xianxia screenwriters always degrade and demean immortality leader? This one is far evil than Ashes of Love, Ancient Poetry, Samsara Immortal, etc!!! Immortal leader creates chaos just to stop the fall in number of worshippers and increase offerings?! This ain't creativity!

LOL, this reminds me of the anime Heaven Official's Blessing!!!

After catching the plot finale, i hesitate to start this. Is it really worthwhile sitting through 6hrs of time to watch this drama? Or should i give this a miss?

Many thanks to all commenters on this. Was about to start this miniseries but decided to drop in here for feelers... Though mini, it's still a saving of six hours in time! Cheers!

that's also a possibility. Swordsman Sancai has another role - Mingming's friend Li Cai

i don't remember the SoD drama, but i definitely know the music. That song is truly evergreen!

yup, and the actor playing that role usually takes on unscrupulous characters.

I've a hunch that the 3rd party and villain R is someone from Xiao Ming Ming's modern world, and most likely it's his senior Li Nan, who also got transported into the novel.

He's been my #1 Sus from Day1 as he's too "non-competitive"to be true. Do you also suspect him or you read from its adapted novel?

ah, ok. thanks

oh, ok thanks

Pengyoumen, anyone recognize the woman with Ming Ming in the photo in Ep# 1? Is it Tang Fang or someone else yet to appear in person?

or the ML himself

hell! The suspense is killing! One suspect written off. I feel that Jo-I could be the wife's bestie.

Everyone else, other than the person himself, can see his incompetence and weaknesses! Very frust watching his face every time he comes onscreen.

Actually, there are many more to rant about this drama.... My very last one is there's no clear mention of FL surviving her cliff fall.
So I guess we can safely assume, like in all cdramas:
- there's no fatality in cliff-dropping - EVERYONE survives!
- BUT ironically, whoever drops from a fortress wall will result in 100% death!

All they show is an anxious maid shouting to her Queen "Wang hou niang niang, màn diǎn!" ... and a happy couple running down the streets hand-in-hand and his departing words "Are you willing?"
