that's the idea of side characters 😅... if you don't mess up bad way or leave in gracious way, side characters…
yeah, i know, but it always annoys me. I would prefer them getting greedy over something (like the throne or a position of power) than the FL/ML. I just dont like them thinking it would work.
It's probably the first time I've seen the FL outsmart the ML like in this drama. Very good. Lots of minor plot twists that keep the story interesting. Two things i maybe missed regarding steward Cheng: was it him that leaked the location of Ms. Yang and the sister? Does the FL know that at the end. Also, does the FL know that he destroyed the letter from ML before going to the capital?
Dropped after half ep 28. It started so good and it became a mess in the end. I didnt even mind that much the memory loss arc, it was very romantic that she fell in love again. They started introducing the ML as a someone that kills everyone he wants. I can understand that FL doesn't like it so he kinda stopped doing it, but cmon. Unfortunately, this xianxia drama suffers from the same curse: power scale is a mess! ML was able to go against Sect Master and almost win even when injured. After getting the second flame not only he still can kill him easily, but somehow he's slower than him and cannot save FL. Even in the demon real arc he's supposed to be the strongest by a lot, but gets stopped by everyone. I get it that he's injured 90% of the time, but he should still be oneshotting everyone, expecially the injured Sect Master... Maybe i've missed a few thing while watching that can explain the problem i've found. Anyway, FL and music are amazing. ML was meh.
not bad. I just wish they would stop creating characters that, at the start, seems to be "good" and turn "evil" in the end because they are in love with the FL/ML. No, FL/ML will not love you if you kill the people they love or force them to marry you.
ngl, Xi Wei carried this drama all the way to the end. ML was surprisingly good (not throwing shade at the actor). The secondary romance with Snake Lady and the Idiot started very good but it crashed at the end. Black Snake got fcked hard by the plot, didnt deserved it. Fck Book Guy. It's also so rare seeing Empress and Consort being so close to each other instead of the usual hatred. Loved it. It felt a bit weird that the best demon hunters in the region do not know if someone is a demon unless they show their demon form. Overall good. Xi Wei is amazing.
dropped after 24 eps. It's not bad, maybe not for me. It feels like unnecessary long. The ML that at the start seems to be cold and calculating, capable of killing someone if needed to save other lives, seems unable to stop (forever) even the smallest evil guy. We saw in the Bilou Tower that they are able to stop people with acupressure, so why not do that the grunts. Everyone can fly, jus not when it's actually needed. Maybe in the last 16 eps it gets better...
this is one of the WORST cdrama i've seen so far. It should have ended at episode 15 or something and maybe it would have been a decent one. This story was so stupid it made question if this was a parody of something. The only "decent" character is the ML that is not an idiot like the rest. I regret every second spent watching this show. I'm pretty sure the writer forgot his own story half way through, especially with the FL.
If you are thinking of watching this drama, do yourself a favour and skip it.
10/10 drama. One of the best i've seen in a long time. Romance was amazing and the story was so interesting. It was not the same story where the watcher finds out the truth from the start.
Is it just me or Ao Rui Peng look a lot like Dylan Wang? Maybe the smile.
she is as a bully mind you, you are just performative af
she is a bully, but not a pos. I dont know what you mean by 'performative', but i'm just saying that she deserved someone that did not do what he did. I dont care if later we find out he had mommy or daddy issue or some other stuff. Just because you or other people like and i dont, doesn't mean i'm faking it
dropped after the 9th episode. Romance was ok, but the world building i've seen so far is not for me. Everybody is a greedy pos that would destroy humanity to get more power and kill the MC that apparently is quite weak since he can be easily ambushed or controlled with demonic powers. He would be already dead if not for the female lead that saved him. How is he still alive. He was hyped to be strong as fuck in ep1 but it seems to be strong only with the mask on...
Might rewatch it some other time. Maybe it's not for me rn
Dropped before they could ruin Le Shan, my favorite. I dont care how much he changes, nothing can make me like that pos after what he did. She deserved better...
"The only thing I don't get or maybe I've missed is the reason why the FL hated the ML so much after getting…
Exactly! I get it that he saved her just to get information and was "forced" to play the wife role, but he still saved her life. Fine with them splitting but the hate was not necessary.
Didn't expect this to be one of the best romance/revenge c-drama I've seen so far. The first half is perfect. The ending is also amazing. The actors are so good and it's the first time I see many of them. The romance between the ML and FL is the best part of this drama, followed by them being geniuses while plotting revenge or attacking the enemy. The only thing I don't get or maybe I've missed is the reason why the FL hated the ML so much after getting back her memories. I get that she was tricked in "marrying" him but he also saved her life and treated her very good. He also did not take advantage of the situation and slept with her. Ok for he to be mad, but wanting to kill him? I thought she knew that him attacking the bandits in the past was a misunderstanding. This made the drama 6-7 episodes longer and, in my opinion, was not necessary. Overall, amazing c-drama.
The Long Ballad was, indeed, long. About the main romance: love Dilraba, hate Leo Wu. I was 100x more interested in the second romance between Liu Yu Ning and Zhao Lu Si. Very refreshing seeing her not playing the usual over-the-top funny character. I didn't mind the comic animated scences, but the green screen effect with the actors' face was horrible. Also, i find it very boring when people, seeing Changge's face, think she's a man jus because she's wearing man clothes. In episode 18, I was hoping for a wlw romance between Changge and Mimi. I would have been better than what we got with the male lead.
my exact reaction as soon as i saw them together. Missed the change to be an amazing GL.
the scene where they were on the cliff, drinking together before she went to the enemy state was amazing. I was hoping for a GL as soon as the FL painted the flower on the scar. Missed 10/10 GL drama
Lots of minor plot twists that keep the story interesting. Two things i maybe missed regarding steward Cheng: was it him that leaked the location of Ms. Yang and the sister? Does the FL know that at the end. Also, does the FL know that he destroyed the letter from ML before going to the capital?
