Visual feast

Beautiful to watch! The attention to detail in the costumes, sets, props and cinematography makes for an exquisite visual experience. Superbly shot scenes such as flower bridge, dance, sword play, bird flight, magic and xianxia are feasts for the eyes. Excellent acting . Xiao Zhan as Shi Ying and Ren Min as Zhu Yan plus fine job by other cast, especially Li Ming De as Chongming, Fang Yilun as Zhi Yuan and Wang Zi Qi as Qing Gang.

Cold and aloof priest Shi Ying lived an isolated life on JuiYi mountain until bubbly princess Zhu Yan intruded into his solitary life. I'm loving everything about this drama and look forward to how the fateful love story unfolds. Have already rewatched every episode on Tencent WeTV and will rewatch again on Netflix.

Synopsis from Tencent app:
The series tells the story of the lonely and indifferent Kongsang prince Shiying and the passionate and righteous princess Zhu Yan of the Chi nationality who form a long-term relationship, stay together and overcome difficulties together. The story of the play takes place in a fantasy continent called "Yunhuang" … a fantasy mountain scene with grand architectural scale and profound Zen for the audience. As the narrative unfolds, the emotional line and the career line run parallel. Not only there is a romantic story of fateful love, but also elements such as family and country righteousness and inspirational growth run through it, explaining the righteous mission of the main characters to protect the common people and set their hearts for all things.
