Well ending as far i remember is very true to the book, even if they cut and altered a lot of stuff. I get that people are unhappy but welp :P Also as far i remember, we have some kind of epilogue later, when TTJ is back. But yeah, censorship, book is long, we have a lot of characters, episodes regulations and so on, so i think still cast, and whole staff, did the best what the could with the title. I belive they cut A LOT, and it's sometimes hard, to tie all the knots in the story, which is so complex and we are left with a lot of questions. But i still enjoyed it, both book and the drama, and for sure i will back to it someday.
Lots of tears shed in that last episode but I liked the way it ended.
This was an amazing quality production. Loved all the gorgeous outfits and sets. The directing and cinematography + CGI editing was well executed. I thought they nailed the casting - the entire cast was phenomenal portraying their characters, especially our leads. But Luo Yunxi was particularly spectacular for me. I really loved the idea of an antihero ML here - everything about his story, his selfish obsession with Ye Xiwu, all the way to his enlightenment as Cang Jiumin, his angsty love story with Li Susu - I loved it all! The second half of the drama was everything I wanted to see and then some. Bravo to the entire cast and production crew for an excellent job!
*Sending virtual hugs* to ALL of us who finished and future viewers who will finish with that ending. I mean what was that?! I can't even process my thoughts correctly. I did my best to avoid all spoilers this morning before watching and I'm glad I did. I knew I'd be sad and yelling at the screen but not this much. LOL. Their fate was too cruel. I realized it in Ep.38 but was hoping it would have a little change. Ok. No more Xianxia's for me. I'm out! 😂😂 Thank you Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu for breaking my heart this past month. Such a phenomenal job despite the hiccups. ❤️ running off to go rant 😭😭
The scenes at the tomb of tantai jin's memorial right next to ye xiwu got me sobbing fr.
Luo Yunxi's look of longing, resignation, and acceptance of his fate vs Bai Lu's painful crying from anguish, regret and loss were devastatingly beautiful.
I was half prepared for the BE but their raw emotions didn't spare me from the pain that their characters felt. I'm not a fan of BE, I was actually debating whether to watch this or not but I didn't regret that I did. I'm actually going to rewatch, this is the kind of love story and acting that I'm willing to cry over more than once.
Kudos to the cast especially to the leads Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu! 🤎

I hope the grade doesn't drop because of the ending.
I don't think it was a bad ending, at least it wasn't a blood spitting one. Well only LSS did spat some blood earlier and then when she turned into her goddess form, it's nothing but all beauty, calmness, wisdom. etc. LOVE Bai Lu in her goddess form, no one can nail it any better. In the other Xianxias... one of the lovers usually ends up dying during misunderstandings, their mess are still not clean up but since one is dead all is forgiven... The scenes after LSS fell from the tower is the good example, most Xianxia would ended there like that. But in this ending, they understood the fate and accepted it, it's bittersweet.
Binge-watched the last 4 episodes...really really emotional and need time to process. It's been a great watch though and one of the best made xianxias I have watched in long time. Kudos to the entire production team!!! Amazing acting and talent from our leads; I hope they win awards!
Guys this will be my last comment under this drama... This has been a great journey and i had a real great time after so long and i can't bear to leave it. This drama has entertained me, made me cry and laugh where my friends saw me with weird looks as i am the only one in our group who watches c dramas but jokes on them as this is a great drama and they didn't see it. I will try to put whatever I learned from this drama into practice. I am forever grateful to Bai lu and luo yunxi and the series TILL THE END OF THE MOON.. thanks for making me one of you
This drama is like watching a train wreck to happen, and you just can't stop watching. What keeps me going, just like some of you here, is the leads, especially Luo Yun Xi. This my first costume Cdrama, and I never thought there would come a day where I would watch a drama for mainly the cast and not the plot. Therefore, would I watch this drama without Luo Yun Xi in it? NO. Haha. So thank you Luo Yun Xi and fastforward button for making me sit through a costume drama when Dylan Wang (highly recommending Rational Life) couldn't even with LBFAD lol.
Why do you think a lot of people here were excited to see him as a demon god? Because of the costume and the hot looks. Kind of lol but really, this man just shows a huge range of acting depth. If he were a singer, he would be able to do ALL vocal ranges. He is that good. As a fan from Love Is Sweet, I'm so proud to see him actually grow as an actor in each passing episode of this drama. Even though Ashes of Love was unbearable for me to watch (didn't finish it), he definitely made an impression there with the few scenes he had. From that early on in his career, I knew that he had real talent.
I'm sure fans here definitely know that this is going to be the huge stepping stone for this wonderful actor. All I could hope for, is for him to get better scripts in the future. C'mon, it's been long overdue. Give him some quality work! Lol.
When Tan Tai Jin told her "In the end you just said lightly that you tricked me, hid from me, hurt me and tried to kill me, all for the sake of the people of the world", "I hate you" and "Do you think I would forgive you that easily", it was so good to hear that too bad he is only saying that to deceive Li Su Su, she deserved to have heard these truths before. Anyway, I'm happy that we're in the final and unfortunately I found these last romantic episodes too forced and Li Su Su's love for Tan Tai Jin didn't convince me, I believe that the cuts influenced a lot.
But in the end, the drama was good to watch and Li Su Su entered my ranking of female leads that I hate and I found that I don't like the "Enemies to Lovers" trope if one of the characters is mean to the other lol
what episode do they officially get togetherany break up scenes if so what episode and what episode they get back…
One sided love story from ml. FL never even tries to understand him. She is completely one dimensional in her pursuit of great cause for her people, uses ml as a toy. i really don't mind if they don't end up together because ml deserves a better person than fl
Don't watch it for romance. Forget about triangles.
I need to appreciate that TTJ is not character that hell bent to love. Lot of demon characters out there just become soft and weak after he fall in love. DFQC is the worst kind of example of this type. DFQC so badass on early episode than he literally do absolutely nothing later on. TTJ shown his care and love in gallant way even when he is CJM.
Also it is rarely mentioned or discussed about TTJ most prominent characteristic that is really high pride. His pride and ego helped him become Jin King and his pride go higher as DG. He is the man that will never say love first but have woman came to him. If his lover do not came to him, he rather manipulate her instead. Eventhough TTJ begging YXW but he never admit he is love him. He wanted to own YXW. He regretted his unhealth obsession over YXW and replace it with unspoken sacrifice.
He don't know how to say love without put down his pride. Through 39 ep of this drama, he never confess his feeling outright to LSS.
