I understand. There’s nothing wrong with the way you think.

But to appreciate something and have it resonate with us, the feeling of loss is often very strong.

That why you are still here feeling a sadness in your heart knowing how the story ended.

The story resonated with you and that purely because how it end

Yes come back and let us know !

Sometime having the happiest ending is not always the ending that will resonated with the majority of your viewer

I know what you mean, but look at it this way. Even in a different world or timeline ... LWY still carry WWY heart with her.

I have watch the ending, but again people interpretation of the show might be different then my own.

It was a bittersweet ending for me it carry ALOT of meaning the more you look into it and understand each of the character

I don't know if I should give you either the actual reason or a philosophical one. So here both

The real reason is without the Fox Queen/JY influence what WWY experiences is all but a illusion. It was never real we know this but we see it in episode 29 when JY is kill early before she could infused LWY with the fragments and fix all the foxes memories.

The philosophical reason, This is how Ji Ling and LWY would have wanted to live their life if they could turn back time. Unburden from the weight of being Long Shen for JL and As for LWY to live her life the way she wanted and not as JY creations to further his plan.

As great as VoS is for what it is, it still not everyone cup of tea

Yes, this comments section is still a moment in time we share with each other, everything at some point will just be a memory.

So that's why, even though it's a happy ending, it was still bittersweet, only WSG and probably JL having memories of what happened from episode 1-29.

Even if those memories are filled with heartbreak, loss, and sacrifice, we can’t appreciate the ending if the journey never happened.

🥹 yes it doesnt always happen but when something that does touch your heart it does leave a lasting impression

Now that everything is over, listen to Jade Sleep again and read the lyrics 🥹😭 there is so much meaning in it.

Love and Obsession was core to every characters in the drama.

They are still around surely they will 😉

Well WSG is an anomaly, he remember the past... but which timeline 🤣

From what it was shown, it almost felt like that WSG just appear in the new timeline he was shock to see You Chi look proper.

As to him saying this is the world you die to save to JL.

In his mind JL might as well be dead, he doesn't know what happen to JL after the time gate closed.

I know people suggest that O cause JL in this timeline to die from clearing the drought early, but I don't think that's the case. cause of my theory about LWY and JL.

I STRONGLY believe that is how the event play out that LWY and JL time loop is fixed.

Because if it not it really remove the importance of that scene... What do you mean JL was gonna be alive anyway ? so LWY did all of that for him ? and in a different time line he was gonna be alive anyway with out LWY cutting her tail and telling him to dont be sad dont cry I'll always be with you.

So I really believe in the new timeline WSG in with out LWY, Ji Ling of that timeline wouldnt have live past that cave scene with A'Wu

We dont know, I mean technically for Bai Ze to know Ji Can existed... there must need to be a Ji Can in the past for it to be recorded

Yes, that why time travel when use in writing will often lead to these type of possible loop hole.

But also not all loop hole are equal as some can be narrative breaking.

Like I cant say for sure that WSG still somehow doesnt end up at shilin sect early and maybe with him there it would prevented Ji Ling from dying.

Also Ji Ling could still be alive cause Ji Can wouldn't want him to die there

I reedited, I dont disagree with you on that specific part

I had to reedited some of my thoughts, just in case if you read it before I edited it

Yeah I agree, ofc he didn't know.

I mean if you put it that way it sound like YWH was always going to die if he eat the dragon scale, we don't know that cause it never happen.

Cause Ji Ling ate it and he was alive. What if it cure YWH wasting sickness ?

But I dont disagree with you, there was the plan, but there was a flaw with it and Chi Wen created a new one

Also LWY was created after the event of the Flood Dragon Masscare, so we can assume JL killing the fox queen wouldnt change that fact WSG was lost to the shilin sect

As WSG master would still meet his end with Wu Zhi Qi

and WSG would still carry the hatred for the shilin sect

Remember, LWY was created AFTER the event of the Flood Dragon clan.

This is when the WSG master blew WWY up, and she took each piece of the foxes to create LWY.

So JL going back to kill YJ here would not change the fact that WSG master took him away at Dragon Abyss

The Shilin Sect then lost track of WSG. WSG Master would also pass away with the event following Wu Zhi Qi

These events are unchanged by Ji Ling killing the Fox Queen early

He would eventually be at the Shilin Sect because of his hatred for dragon

All of this time, while this is happening, YWH would have died, and all of the people in the Shilin sect would have died because the event of YWH took place 150 years ago. There literally 100-year gap
