If you have second male leads syndrome, you'll die from heartbreak and frustration.
There is nothing really intriguing about the drama except it being the purest description of love is blind. Even today I don't see what Xu Feng had that was could overshadow Runyu. I watched it purely for Luo Yunxi's acting. There have been many instances where I've questioned characters' reason for their villainous actions but the way Luo Yunxi wore his role, everything made sense. I feel like the drama failed to convince me as a viewer that Xufeng was a catch worthy of being fought for. The demon side was also not convincing and the costumes were ridiculous. I wish they had gone with getting good looking demons for that luring evil effect. Overall the costumes were too plain for Gods because I'd rather have an overdressed character than an underdressed one. I must commend the casting because they got good actors and unfortunately the characters themselves were not well constructed but it could've been worse. The music was great and even today my favorite ost is Unsullied. I don't have the heart to rewatch it and see Runyu go through that again and neither can I stand the frustration Yang Zi caused me as Jinmi so once was enough.
