I am not optimistic based on the trailers. I think this nonsense goes on until at least 40 and that is a best case scenario. The truth we don't want to admit is the plot is thin. The first arc was basically a rehash of Dijun + Feng Jiu and frankly it was slightly malicious bomb thrown at the Pillow Book production and it already went on way too long. And then now there is this long desperate second arc with a nonsense second lead that rehashes some of Ye Hua's mortal trial. I really want to like this show but its been aside from a few decent moments incredibly boring. I go back and watch Ten Miles and I just think no comparison. Very disappointed. And there really is not much more time to salvage this. If this show were a stock it would be crashing right now.

Another two episodes of my life I am not getting back. Fed up.

Sigh! Indeed. All the 2019 dramas have been filler hell!!! I am going to really whack the ratings. To show the producers none of this BS advertising hungry filler shit. Don't reward them with 10s. They don't deserve it. I am tempted to drop this right here and now.

Maybe change:
"Chang’an’s intelligence chief Li Bi, a bright but inexperienced 23-year-old aristocrat-cum-Taoist-priest"
into something like:
"Chang’an’s intelligence chief Li Bi, a bright but inexperienced 23-year-old prodigy of the Crown Prince"
Seems to me its less important we know he is an aristocrat/prodigy cum Taoist priest and more important that he is an ally and in fact reports to the Crown Prince.

While this summary is better than the existing summary, the part about the regency of the Right Chancellor doesn't connect with the terrorist plot. It reads like no matter what the Right Chancellor is going to be appointed regent and when that happens the Crown Prince is likely disposed. How does foiling a terrorist plot save the Crown Prince? Suggest somewhere to make clear the alliance of Li Bi/Peacekeeper Corps to the Crown Prince.

Yeah and it also proves that JX is just a slime ball dirt bag. Remember how he tried to hurt her pet when she wasn't looking? I hope LX walks in on him beating her pet and kicks his sorry ass out.

Bless you! I was already thinking OMG don't tell me we have another one of those God of War dudes (remember Mo Yuan) who just doesn't know how to seal the deal...

YT is much more manipulative and smarter than SJ. She makes a much more formidable enemy and I don’t think she is done yet causing trouble even though JC is on to her.

I suppose its these old cynical, high minded and calculating immortals like him that make the 3L3W series special... when the likes of the JC/LX/Ye Hua/ YH uncle whose name I forget break the rules and fall in love it becomes magic...

In short, his shifu is a pompous selfish ass.

LOL u r just an adorable love sick fool! All true but replay I can rewatch the original for these episodes I wish for a magic eraser so I can erase and paste over JC for JX.

Good idea... hope its not more than that...

Ep 33: Another time wasting JX/LX focused episode (yuck). WTF or how to make your viewer rating crash 101.?!?!? Only saving grace? YT gets smacked in the face a few times. YES!!!

That cracked me up too. But haven't you noticed in the 3L3W world many of the immortals are very androgynous...

I think he is faking it. I suspect her second mortal trial has to do with him. Doesn't he want to unlock the abyss so that he can kill the dude that framed his father? I think he needs LX to do that. But I wasn't paying that much attention to his parts I need to go back and re-watch.

He is actually a really ruggedly handsome actor definitely not a pretty boy good looking type which historical c-drama tends to favor. But whoever did his styling on this show really saddled him with the most unflattering hair job possible. If you google his images in Crouching Tiger you will see what I mean - he looks drop dead gorgeous there. Much better than even Mark Chao/Ye Hua at his best. It really drives me insane that the production team did this to him. Btw, all the male hairstyles are pretty awful and it makes a Si Ming/Yun Feng/Yuan Tong's fiancee look practically identical to each other. The stylist needs to be fired.

LOL indeed it was and next thing you know JX seems to be staying there with her and she only very reluctantly acknowledges she was engaged to JC! No good deed goes unpunished!!!

Well it is certainly a big improvement that she is not a fawning love sick adolescent. And I agree Ni Ni is a very graceful and charming actress which is evident throughout so I hope they give her more to work with...

I like her but I can’t help but agree and we are quickly running out of episodes for her to grow up.
