First of all, I finished this drama about a week ago and still am disappointed, why do everyone feel the need to drop everything at the last episode? like what is the whole point? look at tilan and emperor xu, they fall in love and everything even had a child together JUST SO THEY COULD BOTH DI3 AT THE END?!?!! horribly slow progress of love between haishi and fang zhu just for them to not be able to actually be together. I'm so close at rating this the lowest I could but it would be a waste, I actually did enjoy it, just brush off the horrible end and the horrible chemistry between the leads, I wish they just stayed in the disciple-master relationship, I really couldn't stand it, well I could at first but since the marrying thing, uh uh, maybe it's because fang zhu literally saw haishi grew up and it's just weird, I don't mind the gap but he saw her grew up and it threw me off for some reason, however, I did enjoy everything else, putting off the romance part, it did actually hook me up from start til ep 40, so it does deserve an 8.0, and the effects and everything, at least it didn't seem like they ran off of budget.
