At this point in time - anticipating episodes 27 & 28 - if we found out this drama is meant to end in deep sadness…
I think if Banxia is human and Xuanye is a demon, the probability of an outright HE is low. If she is half-demon then maybe there is a chance bc then she can choose what she wants to be. I think this is going to end with one of them having to choose whether to stay or leave the human world. Its gonna be terrible if he has to go back to the demon world and she has to remain human. I think that is what bro is after him for, to bring him back to the Wuyou Realm.
He is not looking down on demon hunter at all. He said he does not want his daughter associated with demon hunter…
Yeah after what he and his wife went through, I can't blame them for wanting their daughter to stay as far away from demons as possible. I think Xuanye gets that too. But as Banxia has well pointed out, it should be her decision, no one has the right to make it for her. Very modern of course and maybe kind of out of place in Tang China.
I love this kind of storytelling. It is so complicated. No one is really a good person, they are all pressured…
XIangdong's cop instinct always told him that the brothers could be innocent, that there was more to the case. He could have just let them go. But he didn't bc he wants to get merit so that he can get out of that hell hole of a detention centre. And that remains half of his dogged motive in hunting down Wenguo. And it is as if everyone in that factory conspired against them. They told small lies to improve their circumstances or protect their own selfish interests and it ended up ruining Binbin, Wenguo and Yonghong's lives.
I love this kind of storytelling. It is so complicated. No one is really a good person, they are all pressured by their circumstances. I feel both Yao Binbin and Xu Wenguo were dreadfully wronged and I am starting to get mad Du Xiangdong:
loving the cinematography and acting! does anyone know which city in china it's set in - northeastern china?
It was shot on a mountain location in Leshan, which is a city in Sichuan. There are a few World Heritage sites there. And yes, some of the cast is speaking Sichuan dialect.

Banxia's killer line should have been: Who knows? Today I like you... tomorrow I may like your hot demon bro...
So far none of the demons have had good endings.
