Just like Game of Thrones and game of faces; R is the senior who’s plagiarizing HMM‘s work but in the series…
I saw a lot of cnetz saying 2nd brother is the villain too. They pulled up clips of his collar which is the same as the collar of the masked villain in black clad. There’s also the clip of XQS’s memories. He sees Yiren and the sister first but then second brother just jumps into the scene as if he wasn’t supposed to be part of the memory.
It could also be King Liang too. His mouth kinda matches that of the masked man.
The scene with the forced skill transfer…XQS just expectingly walks in the middle of the 8 sparring martial artists because he knows they’re going to skill transfer him. When one of the men were passionately talking to XQS about transferring their skill to prove to the world who’s the best martial artist, even one of the guys in white couldn’t contain his laughter in the background. 😂😂 Such OG wuxia tropes but this drama plays on it with such humor. Now it’s making me question all of the logic from past wuxia shows.
When the crew started singing and playing Cang Hai Yi Sheng Xiao and re-enacted that scene from the swordsman, that was so random and hilarious. I couldn’t take it seriously 😂
If Yang guo and Xiao longnu from condor heroes can happen even though it’s taboo….Even though I know it wouldn’t here. She’s probably just the fairy sister that he admires
But she seems to read him really well and knows what he intends to say, like the time she gave orders to LSF right in front of LCZ without him having to say it himself. If not true lover then an extremely loyal right hand, just not as crazy as Song Mingzhu
I also forgot they were lovers. Only remember bc of that scene when LSF and XQS impersonated her in the carriage. But then when the story actually introduced them, it felt like they were close allies more than anything
Yeah, I would say there’s more of a gentle aura between them. I guess with LCZ, the two give off more of an old married couple vibe where communication is not really a thing anymore :/
What if Mr Liang is the real mastermind with black mask? He is helping Qiaoshui to take their family sword and…
I also found him suspicious since he’s too nice and we know how almost no seemingly righteous person in this show can be trusted 😩 Sad, hoping he’s not a bad guy though
I’m fully caught up with this show and I have to say that I am thoroughly enjoying it. Sometimes it feels like a parody where they pull in the most tropiest of trope wuxia tropes and play it off in such an unserious but funny way. Also enjoyed seeing the cameo of the past wuxia actors. Such a fun story! Also, my favorite is the precious Tang Rou 🤍
It could also be King Liang too. His mouth kinda matches that of the masked man.
