Yes, I've watched that drama and loved it. I like both Luo Jin and Tang Yan in that drama. What about yourself?

I couldn't understand the first two episodes myself too, until I re-watched them after I watched the whole thing. Each re-watch, I find myself picking up things that I missed in my initial viewings. Like you, I'm a romance buff too, and I had never thought I'd fall in love with a BL or bromance type of drama. Anyway, if you don't enjoy this one, don't torture yourself. There are plenty dramas out there. Let me know if you find one with good romance.

It depends on what you mean by better. For us fans, every episode is like gold, to say the least.

I can understand why you're saying this. When I first came to this drama, that's exactly how I felt. This is a low budget production. I disliked, among others, the acting of those zombies, so fake. The story is confusing, and at some points, even illogical. But the funny thing is, I was totally drawn to it helplessly, like many others. I attribute this draw to the two main characters, their relationship with each other and with others, the beautiful OSTs, and especially the aesthetic visual effects of the two main characters. I have never thought I'd love a BL or bromance like this, but I do with this drama; it is so beautiful. For each episode, I found myself laughing and at the same time crying; I felt happiness and sadness. I even have the fantasy of meeting the 2 fictional characters in my life one day because they are so lovable! I hope you find my explanation plausible and hope you would take the chance in viewing some of the episodes some day.

In this drama, yes, the wife is supposed to be older than the husband. I have no issue with that - the producers need to find an older actress to play that role. My problem is with Liu Tao herself. I find her not convincing in that role as a silly, funny, happy-go-lucky girl. Her look, her demeanor, everything, just doesn't feel right. She has a very piercing look that makes her great for the role of an empress or sort, not as an innocent shallow girl that tries to act silly. I've watched a few episodes. Just can't continue anymore. Maybe Wang Ke Ke changes in the later episodes and Liu Tao fits into the role perfectly. I'm putting this drama on hold for now. Share with me if you will, what you think of this drama, and if I should pick it up again.

You're so right!

Both you and @Emily say it so beautifully. You are so right - there's no right or wrong to be a homo or bi sexual. Whatever sexuality one has, it is of no other people's business. Therefore, one should not discriminate against anybody for any reasons. The over-religiously-zealous people scare me more than those zombies in the drama XD.

In my next life, if I were blessed enough to meet a relationship like what Wei Ying and Lan Zhan share, I want to be a gay! No, I'm not losing my mind. I'm dead serious!

OMG! Xiao Zhan's bug teeth are so cute, and YiBo's smile when he is trying to suppress himself from smiling is so cute too!

Right! In fact, he's a sweet soul. Just that he doesn't know how to express himself properly to be likeable. Only Wei Ying and his own sister understand him, and accept him as he is.

Don't think too much. Just jump in and watch it. Most likely you'd love it like most of us here do, still talking about it, one month later.

Certainly. As this drama is a fantasy, everything is about xian and spirit (ghost), evil, gods, the sort. So the actors have to fly around and land on roof tops, etc. But the wire-fu is so beautifully done. The actors are so beautiful and god-like; they give the best visual effect that I've ever come across in any dramas. Their hair and clothing floating in the air, while they are fighting or playing an instrument. It's just so beautiful. You'd have to watch it yourself to appreciate it.

Don't be sad. It's not that bad. Jiang Chen tried to save Wei Ying from the Wen guards, so he himself was injured by the Golden Core Destroyer; his golden core was taken away, rendering him useless. Wei Ying loves Jiang Chen so he gives his own golden core to him, in a way to repay all the kindness his family has given him. Having done all this, Wei Yin cannot hold a sword anymore because it requires his golden core. But then, Wei Ying can always get the best out of the worst scenario; he invents a very powerful method of sorcery without using a sword. So continues the story.

Makes me feel like a teenager again. Ah... That feeling is priceless!

Ha! If you're happy, who cares? I have crazy dreams myself and they are so satisfying XD.

Yes, for Lan Zhan, that's the heart-wrenching part for me too! He protects Wei Ying all the way in every circumstance since then. That's so beautiful!

My mantra is, "If you can't fight it, join it."

For me, I give up trying to get over it. I'm doubling down. Re-watching all the episodes 1-50, or 50-1, or in random order. Watching the anime which is still releasing on Youtube - enjoying all the jokes and artwork. Reading the novel. Checking on new uploads for Wang Yibo and Xiao Zhan. If that's still not enough, cook myself some lotus soup, eat some lotus seeds. You know what? It's a nice feeling to have something to obsess with. It's like some energy or magic power that helps one get through each day, and live through life under this stressful environment.

I'm hopeless too. Sigh!
