Wow, this forum certainly is "lively". It has such a dedicated hater who practically copy and paste the same argument again and again ......
Xu Kai is not yet perfect actor, but he is improving and his acting is acceptable by standard. I have seen others wooden actor/actress who only have looks but not skill. And Xu Kai certainly is not one of them. He doesn't deserve the harsh critique spewed by the hater here.
His Bai Jue is believable. Bai Jue is someone who is socially awkward and burdened with responsibility. Thus, his acting as Bai Jue shows restrain. On the other hand Qing Mu is cute young man who is free and without responsibility. His acting shows a young man who is goofy and naive.
Also, the setting of the drama world, I think, does not allow an explicit display of affection. So hugging is already very intimate. If you want to see lots of kisses, perhaps watching western drama will be more suitable.
Can't wait for new eps. Every episode is getting more interesting ^^ Xukai can do romance, don't listen to the…
I have liked Xu Kai ever since I watched him in The Legends. I don’t understand the “hate” for him in this forum from some people. I agree that he is not yet perfect, but his acting here is still acceptable. He can show the difference between Bai Jue and Qing Mu pretty well
Wow, thanks. Don't mean to sound salty but I came to this page to express my thoughts only for someone to tell…
I believe the drama will be happy ending. Zhao Dong Yu has said so. Since you are translating the novel, I take you already know that the novel is happy ending?! Perhaps the preview doesn't show the happy part yet (if there is indeed a preview for ep 49).
Finally found a xianxia drama worth watching in this year 2021 after Love and Redemption last year. The costume is very good and fairy like. Scenery looks very pure, as in immortal place. CGI is top notch, too. The OST also beautiful ......
Like the FL character. She is strong but not obnoxious and entitled. So far the acting are on point from all cast. I can see how different Shang Gu from Houchi in their bearing and aura. Same thing with Bai Jue and Qing Mu. Kudos for both leads. Lu Xue Yi is very good in here. Love every moment of his interaction with Xu Kai in the drama. They depict perfectly how close brother quarrel with each other (well, brother with godly power, thus their quarrel is quite grander, hahahahaha).
i was hoping they get a better female lead on this drama.
I have not read the novel in full but so far in the drama Shang Gu is never said to be a stunning beauty. So Zhao Dong Yu appearance actually fit the bill. I am not saying that she is not pretty just different from other xianxia type actresses. Moreover, I like Zhao Dong Yu acting skill.
I personally preferring her than any other xianxia FL that I have come across these few years.
And they give this drama such low rating, hahahahaha. This drama is pretty much following the original and the actor/actress have done a good job in acting. I very much preferring Zhao Dong Yu who can act than any other actresses (with trend beauty for xianxia) that can only know how to look pretty in front of the camera.
My terminology for the novel that also applies to the drama: https://blizzardahmsworld.wordpress.com/2021/01/16/ancient-god-terminology/
Just check the link and I realized that you also translate the novel. Thank you very much! I am reading it now. Your explanation regarding the realm also very clear. It helps a lot
Does anyone in china movie/drama Industry DONT FUCKING KNOW about what the xianxia novel reader expect from an…
Finally someone spoke this truth!! Thank you! I am tired with all these white-washed adaptation of xuanhuan. And I don't understand why all xuanhuan drama adaptation that I have watched shied away from cultivation leveling?? The power level never explained in detail manner when usually it is one of the exiting part of the novel (kind of reading a game leveling).
This is based on xuanhuan novel. This drama kind of throwing any "leveling" that is the trademark of xuanhuan novel out of the window. Unfortunately, all xuanhuan drama adaptation seems to all choose to walk in this kind of pathway.
Watched first 2 episodes and a bit dissapointed. A lot of cliches, romantic feelings developing toooo fast, some…
Hmm, why would you wish ML to stay in snake form? Bad acting or because he becomes an annoying character when in human form? Sorry, I have not watched the drama, only the trailer. No need to hold back in answering me. I do love spoiler.
I am a person who is quite picky when it comes to watching dramas. I really enjoyed this drama. This is much better…
From the trailer, I have feeling that I will like the story. But it seems we are back with naive FL. I hope if I waited for a while, at least I would not have to suffer very long since I can binge watch until the FL is bearable.
Yes, I do love all those three drama that you mentioned even though the FL annoyed me sometimes. I wish we will get xianxia with male centric sometimes.
I am intrigued by this drama after watching the trailer. The trailer really looks good. But judged by the comments here, seems I will wait until more episode come out. Hopefully the FL already "matured" by then.

APL as I see it going a "moderate" and "constrained" route in showing love. There are more of kissing on the forehead than on the lips.
