The novel has more violent plot. It’s an acquired taste on its own. There were abused, tortured and rape, sexual violent, yes. The pull and push between TTJ and LSS is definitely a lot worst in the novel. Literally a love hate relationship all the time. But again it’s novel. The drama tame it down for its good reasons. I am so far okay with how the drama is. And it’s needed that way so can pass censorship. You can read the novel, probably can give you some background and clarity of why certain characters’ behave certain ways.

Oh thanks! He is indeed a BJD!!!

Ah I see. Pardon my ignorance, what’s BJD doll😅.

Yes he does look so much better at the bamboo forest. Really wonder where the make up team get their ideas from.

Ah…the make up team really need some major reflection and lots of rethinking. Good thing that LYX is a beautiful man, he at least can carries some of the looks.

Yup, but I tried to focus on the good looks of LYX 😍so I don’t see the makeup.🤣

I noticed Somehow it’s a trend to make XianXia male lead with thick white make up and super red lips and over the top eye shadows!!!!

Hahahah….I have that exact same thoughts… “Twilight”!!!!

Hahahah…in the novel, yes. A lot in the novel can never pass censorship. In this drama, I don’t think so. Or at least it’s not intended as shown in my opinion. Lol!

See Micha101 reply.😊

Wow…thanks for sharing😊

It’s interesting that many feels it like a rape. MY has full control and participation of his action, so technically not rape.

Yeah been answered many times as it’s confusing for some. Let’s review from drama perspectives, its intention is close enough to the novel, small details are neglect-able. It’s actually not that complicated. SJ just felt she needed to get what she deserves as MY’s wife, which is her wedding night (sex) and furthermore he has asked her to leave, she felt she wanted to claim that. As she has been in with love him for more than a few hundred years. She decided to use the drug on him, which only will weaken him in the beginning and make him lost his voice. But you see after the first initial kiss, it’s all him also wanted to do it with her. And obviously with MY’s power, he can be easily diffused the drug effects if he wants to. So it’s mutual, and not rape.

And one wonder why TTJ didn’t call upon his birds to figure out who put the poison…the demon has become complacent.

I think it’s the LSS’s behaviour that most of us are confused with. Those who read the novel, will have some reasoning. Those who did not, just felt angry that LSS has become dumber in her action and paving ways to make TTJ turn evil. I am keen to wait how the next few ep will turn out.

In this drama for us is within an hour. My heart can’t take it. lol!

The script writer decided to make TTJ more humane and YXW more dumber. I just wonder how they will continue to connect the story following this. If I have not known the novel, I quite like how LYX portray TTJ, whereas for LSS become a bit more confusing at this stage.

Maybe that’s the intention so that the audience won’t feel so bad for her sacrifice.

Hahahah….I like what you said, so true! All this is happening is because of the writer. Lol!

That’s an interesting point. As here YBC is re written into the drama for next arc but not in the novel.
