If the storyline which for me is their touching romance is butchered, no matter how great the cgi or acting is , the adaptation is pointless

100% agree. Infact I prefer China not making the series at all because I know HuaLian’s story will be completely spoilt

Ditto

So true. Some Chapters in Book 2 and Book 4 and chapter 241 have me crying buckets but worth it , ?

But physical wise they are very young, Xie Lian stopped aging at 17 and Hua Chen is not much older. So very hard to find the perfect actors to play the roles. I am not really keen on any live adaptation in China, as I am sure their deep love will not be adequately expressed. Example how do they handle the spiritual power transfer scenes, the huggings, the touching etc. subtle eye contacts are not enough IMHO!

First few episodes were refreshing. But the story soon became over sentimental and ultimately cringe worthy

I agree 100%. Heaven official’s blessing is no. 1 in my favourites

xiao zhan is too deeply ingrained as wei wuxian. They need to cast someone else
