this. agree. biting my tongue and trying not to be too negative. so many people who do not know the story are enjoying it as is.

voting its not going to happen. at least not with the key actors.

this. so right.

I would like it to be the teleporting scene when he is going up passing the baddies face -to-face. Can not imagine how this ends. Does anyone have any guesses?

Where is the stopping point?

if you noticed throughout the drama the footwork that LFY taught him has saved ML life over and over again. its a fighting style that packs a surprise and that HL elevates.

he is not out of the picture. just on the side lines. do not think this drama will go far enough in the future to see his reintroduction. its a shame really. LFY is one of HL only true friends in this reincarnation.

she is a leading cultivator with determination and direction. the accidental boom boom set both her cultivation and her emotions back. in the first novel/dongue she is very much a matching mate for HL. there can be no other. don't get me started with the actress playing the roll though - arghhhh.

caught that. liked the switch up.

Enjoyed reading your observations (as always) really gets me thinking. In the first novel, he does not yet know what feelings are and if he has them or not. His only go ahead is cultivation. Also, he chooses to keep the cultivation code - no mixing mortal with cultivators. Bearing in mind that he has not approached the women. They approach him. There is no FL in this drama version.

wxy is carrying this. wish he would have made a different drama choice. am enjoying parts of the story line and will continue to watch till the end. BTW - what happened to the ML curly hair?

Ding ding ding.

No question for me that the FL father was deep into it from day 1 - willingly or unwillingly.

This. Though the FL's acting does 'flutter'.

I too think this makes the drama interesting its also a nice backdrop to digging deeper into each characters background as well - a parallel.

I think part of the declining rating is due to the gap between what viewers though it was going to be and what it is. Not a romance. That means you have to stick with it to appreciate it. Makes some sense the rating dropped. My guess it will come back up again by the end of the drama at least to an 8.0.

100,00 of cultivators, mortal, demons + centuries of time - HL is bound to run into a few woman along the way. This single guy is a self absorbed absessed cultivation geek giving off hidden alpha male vibes with a half decent face. They come to him. He is not out bagging 'B's, overtly flirting, throwing sex appeal around or concerning himself with numbers. He is in fact sticking to the biz of cultivation.

When he does find himself questioning his feelings for a woman who has presented herself to him he considers the situation from the impact on his cultivation. Its not until he starts to imagine (through the help of 2 male mentors) what his world would look like if something/someone would matter more than himself/his cultivation that he takes his firt self inititated action towards a woman Nangong Wan and stays true to her throughout this version of his reincarnation (the novel).

Setting aside what his life looks like in his happily ever after state. How is that a friggen harem story???

When is a harem donghue/drama not a harem story?

I agree. The watery effect may be the confusion with time lines.

We have little main couple contact to assess. That is not going to change unfortunately.
