Completed the drama. Overall, it was a very good experience, and I’m going to miss it a lot. I liked the ending. Although I wanted more, it was probably the best ending we could have asked for. The characters were carrying death flags from the very beginning, and Wuyi was never meant to exist, so whatever we got is already something to be grateful for, considering the circumstances.

My only complaint would be the excessive focus on Ji Ling. The entire drama revolved around him, and then Wuyi. All the other characters were overshadowed by them. It was probably a deliberate choice by the production team, but the main characters and equal billing things in the cast were honestly very deceiving from them. Another thing, at times, I felt the story was made overly complex. Maybe they could have kept it a bit simpler so it would be easier for everyone to understand.

Tian Jia Rui and Ju Jingyi delivered the best performances in the drama. They were fantastic, and I’ll definitely be looking forward to their next projects. I will miss the JiLu couple—they were the best thing of the drama. I also liked the Wuwu couple a lot. Wishing both couples a happy life in the future.

Overall, I’d say it was a great drama experience. Now, let me wait for another drama that can capture my interest again.

Oh, that’s great. This is honestly the best ending we could hope for, considering everything that happened. Thank God I can at least finish the drama with a good feeling. Thanks a lot for the spoilers.

So the girls don’t remember, but they still feel the connection with the boys—is it something like that? I guess they gave a strong implication of a happy ending.

Well, JY wants to kill CW using WSG, so we’ll most likely see him again. But he might end up getting killed in the end.

Yeah, you are correct. That demon hunter lady also had petals. I was just confused with Shiguang's petals. They look exactly the same, so you expect there are some similarities between them.

So, he kinda works as the storage of dragon power? He can't use dragon power himself. Most likely that is the case.

Ep 23 trailer: Li Jie with 3 petals. Is that dragon power or something else? What is the difference between Shiguang's 3 petals and Li Jie's 3 petals?

The plot is great, no doubt. But sometimes it becomes too complex and hard to follow for casual viewers. I’m not a casual viewer, though, so I enjoy it a lot.

Well, of course the drama is still great. Maybe it’s just me, but I expect some payoff from watching every day. Today’s episode had very little payoff. It was important for the overall story, but it focused more on new mysteries and less on character interactions. I prefer a better balance. Two episodes would make that balance much easier to achieve.

One episode is definitely easier to digest for complex stories, but the problem is that a single episode often comes with little or no payoff. Today’s episode was mostly an explanatory one—important for the overall plot, but not very satisfying in terms of payoff. Two episodes would balance things out better and keep viewers more engaged.

Am I the only one who thinks they’re making the plot overly complex? They could easily wrap things up by dropping some unnecessary elements instead of complicating the story even more. The time‑loop stuff and the introduction of a new mystery in every episode aren’t helping anymore. Releasing only one episode per day doesn’t help either—two episodes would probably keep viewers more engaged. I just hope they focus more on character interactions instead of constantly adding new plot points.

I think she said, countless times and more than ten times — so it definitely has to be more than just three. I also don’t think the time travel ends with this arc. I saw a spoiler saying she might go back to Ji Ling’s childhood, but I’m not sure how accurate that is.

Haha, that’s a big question. Every episode just brings even more questions. Hopefully we’ll get the answers soon.

Yes, when you think about it, her situation is far more tragic than puppet Ji Ling’s. Wuyi has no control over herself at all. Even if she chooses to die, Jiu Ying can resurrect her. He can take over her body whenever he wants. He can erase her memories and manipulate her memory and thoughts however he likes. It’s far worse than being any kind of puppet.

It’s also so sad. Even if you love your sister, you know your heart actually belongs to her. The question is whether it’s true love, or if your heart is simply bound to wangyan by nature. Damn… that’s heartbreaking.

Damn, I feel so sad for Wuyi. She was borrowed and pieced together to become a person. She doesn’t have a real identity. Everything about her is fake. Her entire fate is to be controlled by Jiu Ying whenever he wants. The only things that truly belong to her are her emotions and Ji Ling. It’s such a tragic existence.

Haha, a 9 rating might be asking for too much. A 9 should really be reserved for exceptional dramas (though there are definitely some overrated ones out there). I think this drama right now deserves around an 8.6 or 8.7. Depending on the ending and the final episodes, it could land anywhere between 8.6 and 8.9. That’s just my opinion, of course — everyone sees things differently.

What actually happened? Don’t you think this drama should be at least at an 8.6 rating by now? There are plenty of dramas with much higher ratings, and I honestly can’t say they’re better than this one.

Who is the new girl? What is her purpose? Any idea?

lol, well, it will probably be a sad ending. but, just hoping for somehow be a happy ending. nothing serious here. what is the fun here knowing the ending and making jokes at others?
