That’s the point - a consistently evil character can redeem herself with a good deed but TTJ who was harmless by comparison couldn’t? I make the comment half in jest to highlight the sense of injustice and dissatisfaction the ending conveys.

True. I mean I hated her as ye bingchang but as mo nv she was totally fine.She tried to live true to her heart. I mean if that would be the case we should hate that piece of soul of li susu whow was real ye xiwu. Because let's be honest, that one was really bad too. I am more baffled on gongye jiwu but I guess it was more because they cut to much it was so incoherent his actions,he changed way too fast.

More like he surrendered to his fate, he didn't choose but he accepted it.

That's what pains me and made me so sad 😥

Yes Xianxia is centred around self sacrifice for greater good, others and the whole world as xianxia is originated from ancient daoism in China and that's the main theme of Daoism😌

But xianxias follow the trope of self-sacrifice and giving up on one's own love for the benefit of mankind, among others. This has not changed in the past 20-30 years which is why I only limit myself to watching 1 a year, or 2 max.

LYX getting the girl in the end and live happily ever after, remains to be seen 😅

Yes, if they like TTEOTM so much,they will support it whatever the ending is and never give or change the rate into 1 star 😥, but I wondering ... If TTEOTM wasn't cut into 40 episodes and had the original version (which is 56 or 58?), would the ending be the same as the novel (have HE) or still have the same ending as the current ending?

For me, I think I can accept the ending but there was plenty of missing in the end. There was no closure to other leads/characters in the drama. This is probably to 40 eps rule imposed but I based my ratings in the drama shown not by novel or leaked script. If only they could have shown it and the final scene in the leaked where TTJ shadow is shown it would have been better. The editing team failed in this regard. They could have cut the flashback scenes instead and cut some during the dream arc to give more space for immortal arc.

Sad to see the rate went down. Hopefully will go up again. Thinking of the 7 past XanXia drama I had watched, all had a happy ending even no closure, it was a happy open ending. None had a tragic ending like this even those with tragic ending there was a few minutes of how ML returned or an epilogue. Guess this is how TTJ want to end it. Respect that. Rewatching it 😊

Yeah. It's not fair to bring down the rating just because of the ending.

Need to also think about the effort of the whole team before, during and after filming. The performance of the actors, the sets, costumes, props, etc. Seeing the low rating adds to my pain.

I totally agree this drama is on another level no matter what the closure was about

It is a beautiful ending for me too, but it is no consolation for my heart 😭

I kinda love ending. He is at peace and happy. It has deeper meaning for me. LXY had this role which can be one in lifetime. He was meant to be TJ thats no doubt. I am so glad I saw this masterpiece! 🥺❤️😍

I try to move on for now before I want to rewatch, but I can’t. I feel like someone I know dearly in real life passed away.

TTJ finally get to decide his own fate rather than accepting his scripted hard life and finally let go.
The only consolation for me with TTJ gone and CYJM ends is that the actor LYX is also somewhat free from the internet violence he received during the airing.

The script writer wrote yesterday:
Leo acting as ADG is on point, ADG should not be portrayed as human because he is not (the way ADG was emotionless when he died, the script was different, he supposed to panic but Leo changed it to calm, indifferent)

TTJ Hostage prince survival is like animal instinct. I absolutely agree, there is something uncanny about how Leo portrays TTJ, animal instinct it is.

I have to say it again. It is an honour for TTJ to meet LYX and equally an honour for LYX to meet TTJ, it is one in a lifetime luck for an actor to act 8 personalities for a role.

i thought this was an interesting view of the ending since many people are unhappy/upset with the ending.

“The point of the story is about personal growth, finding satisfying relationship, acceptance of self, courage to face responsibility, collective efforts plus personal tenacity to do the impossible. Suppose all of these are achieved, I would consider it a full circle, a very happy ending. Sorry, maybe I don’t believe the author is trying to write a fairy tale romantic story, so i am more accepting of the ending as the story offers.”
