I wanted some filler...some breather... the biggest disappointment for me was we didn't get as much disciple free…
heheheheh yes after reading some comments from audience here, I get why they took out those 'slice of life' scenes... Still a little sad... I will have to see it in my imagination.
Eg when they went to the trials, it just started... In the novel, all the students camped there before the event started, and Ranran brought out so much food to bbq... to the annoyance of the other sect disciples who were cultivating and fasting LOOOOL That was so funny to read... but I guess it will ruin the pacing and the overall more serious tone of the drama.
Its not great obviously but I am curious, if you were in their shoes with this set of circumstances, what would…
I like that SYS did voice out his complaint that he didn't need MQG making the decisions for him. In fact the drama even tried too hard to hammer in this 'lesson' by making his mother also make unwanted decisions for him...
Didn't SYS already know all that is to know about the Spring? He actually thought he was able to conquer it and use its power instead. He did appeal to MQG to just give him more time to control it. What would MQG have been able to tell him to convince him he won't be able to?
That was part of the main issue. Its not a breakdown in communication here. He communicated to her to trust him to control it, she communicated that she cannot take the chance. The fact remained she was forbidden to convince him any further by telling him she saw the future of him becoming corrupted by the Spring. It was the interference of the Heavens who actually wanted him to go down that path. I don't think its very fair to blame MQG for 'making the decision' for him, because what other way was there?
The other misunderstanding regarding who MQG 'loves' arose because she decided to help Suyu's father become the emperor since she thought as long as she changed that branch of the future, Prince Ping might give up and will no longer force SYS down that path. But again, I don't see how else she can communicate to him that she is doing it for his 'own good' since he won't believe her when she told him its for his sake.
As for not telling XRR, I could understand SYS's reasoning. If she was a clean slate already, why weigh her down with the past especially when as you said, he doesn't intend for her to join him at all? Whats the point of telling her , oh yeah btw you used to be my shifu, but I intend to head to my certain doom alone, don't worry its nothing to do with you... you don't have to come help me, its all good? In a way he was following her order, its his own task, and she said she didn't want to see him again...
If she was born complete with all her powers, maybe he won't even bring her back to Xishan. But obviously he needed to otherwise what will we watch LOOOL
It's like the alarm that Ling Xiao spirit collapse....
I still suspect its to make the continuity for wardrobe and makeup easier LMAO becos in the novel she had days to absorb the energy into her body becos they travelled by foot back to Xishan and on the way she was even giving regular massages for Xiaobai who was KO'ed after the fight with the bugs.
She thought Shifu might be the same so she was giving Xiaobai massages to improve Shifu's circulation as well hahahahah it was so unserious but cute
In the drama they didn't have any break at all, she basically flew all the way back which I can understand and appreciate her sense of urgency.
He kind of wants her to be able to survive on her own but the plan was for himself to take care of the Spirit…
becos you said 'so they can take care of business' I assume its 'he can take care of business' since the drama version SYS is always going it alone... Sigh for this stark difference I preferred the novel SYS who was always taking his disciples out for adventures, but I suppose that will make light of the different demons and seem too light hearted drama lol
How is the drama, someone please give me quick review 😊
Really great drama in a long while. Great acting, beautiful visuals of cast and sets, well paced story ( a bit too fast is the common remark) and very good visual effects.. its a very down to earth xianxia.
Binge it now and come squeal in real time with us. hahahahah
At this point, I don't know who has it worse between Tantai Jin from TTEOTM and Su Yushui...like everything just…
I suppose SYS thought MRW can't kill RR either because they are still linked by that soul chain thing. But did MRW herself forget? I don't understand why she kept trying to kill her sister so many times when they are still linked in life and in death?
I didn't expect to be waiting for episodes but I'm disappointed on not being able to binge. I hope I don't lose…
I wanted some filler...some breather... the biggest disappointment for me was we didn't get as much disciple free time as they did in the novel. They were always carefree, camping and eating bbq everywhere they went for their adventures, to the bewilderment of other sects lol
Yi Shui, my guy, even your friend Zheng Yi is telling you that you don't need to be this rude and awful to her.…
I find it really funny that whatever he did was practically the guidebook to seduction.
SYS hid from her for 1.5 years - classic push-pull + absence made her heart grow fonder
Now he blows hot and cold like Zeng Yi said, she gets all jealous and upset but once she finds out how injured he is, she's going to be super moved hahahah
Nah girl you never going to be able to leave him. Let me serve your words back to you with your fav plum candy.
why yall today are disappointed?? are today's eps just a stretch?
Today's eps was so much more fun than yday's for me. I did not feel that moved with that love story of that dragon lol but that ep had really great visual effects lol

But I can't understand she practically saw herself in red and who else wears red?? *face palms*

My guess is that weird comment is so they don't have to carry that mark into make-up for continuity LOOOOL
Because it was clear that RR always placed SYS first in everything she does.
