I notice something. If Xi Xuan mother is Demon Princess, then her father is the Demon King?! And since she was told be Golden Winged demon, did this mean that Golden Winged bird was the royal demon clan?

In episode 31 (after Ting nu healed Si Feng), the way they talked about Golden Winged bird was as if this clan was somewhat important in the war 1000 years ago.

I agree. I have posted before (lost in sea of comments, though) that the way Xi Xuan saved GOW was by let her pour her anger to him. In other words, let her bit on him as hard as she wants however long she wants. Xi Xuan showed her love and sincerity until the point of death multiple times, because it was exactly what it would take to appease GOW anger. Bai Lin had this narrow minded view that everything could be shoved under the rug through forced obedience.

The drama, in my opinion, already gave ample of chances for Xuan Ji character to repent in episode 48-53 to satisfy the audiences that felt heartache for Si Feng. However, I think the actress failed to capitalize those moments into their fullest. While Cheng Yi already showed Si Feng suffering to that high level.

Yuan Bing Yuan acting was not that bad actually. But in this story, when the male lead acting was that heartwrenching, she could not help but be compared and deemed as lacking.

Unlike some people, I actually like the drama give the male lead more suffering scenes than in the novel. Because it shows the magnitude of GOW resentment, her pain, and what it takes to appease her. I can feel that the drama want to show how love triumphs all. Episode 48 onwards should be GOW redemption arc. How she finally surrendered herself to Si Feng love and let go her grievance since the love she received and felt are much bigger than her previous pain. All of this already in the script, just failed to be showed 100% on screen in my opinion.

How true! He looks sooo handsome as Xi Xuan. The gentle aura in Xi Xuan is rather different from Si Feng, but very compelling regardless

Oh, I see. Hahahaha! I perhaps will only speed watching Maiden Holmes since from the clips that I have watch, story and acting are too far compared with L&R. With L&R still so fresh in my mind, I am lacking a tolerance for a simple drama for now.

Present!! Eyeing the discussion forum for now. Will watch shortly in this weekend, which is today in my timezone, hahahaha. Will join all of you in discussion shortly.

Hahahaha!! That little monologue spoke volume on how Ling Long really realized her mistake on doubting Si Feng. That she now could bring herself to care about the golden bird demon clan feeling when they visited Shao Yang

Unlike Si Feng father who only cared about his son well being, Xuan Ji father care too much about his own face. Lots of his action toward Xuan Ji (after Xuan Ji was known as GOW) stemmed from his desire to contribute to the righteous sects creed than from a father simply want to protect his daughter.

This is a character that remain un-redeemed in my eyes until the end. His acceptance to Si Feng in the end seemed to be forced by situation and fact shoved to his throat than by sincerity.

Good thing, Xuan Ji was married out. She saved Si Feng and her future children of having to deal too much with Shao Yang and her lots. Better be with Li Ze Palace people. Pretty sure they would adore the woman who still chose their Chief despite he was a demon and she was a human.

My thought exactly. Sincerity is best shown in perilous time. In the end, pretty sure Xuan Ji father already knew who Si Feng really was (his other identity in heaven and all his background). In a way, if the heavenly father approved the relationship, then who was Chu Lei to disapprove?! So Xuan Ji father blessing to their marriage in the end felt so biased. Would he still approve if Si Feng was just a simple demon? I am not sure.

My heart broke for Si Feng in episode 54. The cold shoulder he got in Shao Yang was too much. Fortunately Xuan Ji was with him and assured him of her intention. Xuan Ji character really showed development there. From someone who let herself get influenced by others so easily, now she is firm in her desire.

It is a very plausible guess because the time of airing is exactly the same as the day when L&R ended. It didn't seem to be a coincidence. Moreover, The Promise of Chan'An filmed earlier than L&R but no yet released. Perhaps at that time, they didn't have high hope for the drama to be successful.

It certainly looked like they had been traveling a lot during Si Feng coma. Pretty sure in the beginning, they were in Shao Yang (I am quite certain Si Feng was in Xuan Ji bedroom). And then she brought him to places. Perhaps she thought that being in certain places holding their memory could somehow fasten his recovery.

Woah, 32 episodes released in the first week? Great!! My pain would not be prolonged.

Already on my watch list. Perhaps this weekend. I hope the drama will release new episodes fast because 61 episodes is quite a lot and have a risk of draggy in the middle. I am afraid I will loss my interest by then. Well but L&R also 59 episodes, hahahaha

It ended already? Okay, will try speed watching by the weekend along with watching Promise of Chang'An. By the way, anybody know how many episodes this drama will release each week?

I am a lover of angst. Bring it on!!

Oh Maiden Holmes is that good? I only watched a little bit here and there. But cannot really get into it when L&R still airing. I always ends up comparing the male lead acting ......

Wow!! You guys already here watching the new drama??? Hahahaha! It is already close to midnight in my timezone. Will try watching this in bulk this weekend.

Trailer is very interesting and I am prepared to ditch the romance and only concentrate on Cheng Yi character in this drama (since I feel that the romance in this drama will get me so annoyed). I am already so full regarding romance thanks to L&R.

I am pretty sure. The scene looks like Si Feng room in Li Ze Palace after he became chief.

I also love Li Ze Palace. Really hope the drama shows the sect open again an about. I am annoyed with Shao Yang until the end. Still doubt Xuan Ji father sincerity in accepting Si Feng demon identity. Moreover, he must have know who Si Feng really is by now. So, his thought might be biased.

Somehow I find that actor really showed his ability in acting just when he was about to hit or already 30 years old. Most of the young actors (20s years old) cannot act and only sell pretty face.

Hmm, I think the drama has two wedding night scenes. One is at the Li Ze Palace (as shown in that video). The other is at their humble house in South. Perhaps they choose the scene in the South. Sad, because I really want to see Li Ze Palace return

Based on the trailer I have a bad feeling regarding the female lead. I think it would be the usual female character that acts cold and strong but actually is damsel in distress. Something like Zhao Lu Si character in Three Thousand Crow (or something).

But I will give the drama chance because I like Cheng Yi character there. I will try to close one eye to the romance and just focus on male lead.
