Fun watch but really draggy storyline
i just finished this drama and overall i liked it but there’s just a few things i would like to say that bothered me. first of all i was so unsatisfied by how little the relationship developed between the emperor and empress went the writer could’ve developed their relationship better the potential was there for their relationship to be way better written. also this drama was wayy too draggy from the FL taking a century to forgive the ML after all he did was lie to her that he was her husband and used her to get his arch nemesis.but he still kept her virtue intact and he never slept with her while she didn’t have her memories in fact he always avoided it because she meant that much to him. also the ML shouldn’t have been stabbed by the FL that was just wayy too much it’s not like he killied someone related to her. also there was soo many characters that shouldn’t have been casted why was the aunt and cousin even casted ?? they brought nothing to the show honestly. also the villains were so undeveloped and there was just so many plot holes which i hated. but nevertheless the chemistry between the ML and FL was amazing also the chemistry between the empress and emperor was really good even with the baldy developed romance.also i loved the last fight scene between the ML AND FL overall this drama is a solid 8 very fun in the beginning but draggy towards the ending.Was this review helpful to you?

What a dreadful story
Okay so first of all i i watched all of the 59 eps so i will be having ALOTTT to say.The beginning of the drama started off pretty decently i actually really liked the leads in the beginning their relationship seemed cutesy and fun. but then towards like episode 30ish is when everything turn to complete BS from the male lead sacrificing himself over and over again when the female lead clearly couldn’t give two shits was really it for me. also when he would hide things from the female lead in the means of “protecting her” and that everything will be fine once she knows what he did for her even if it means he has to die, it quickly became such a laughable drama their whole relationship didn’t even seem genuine anymore it seemed rather forced like he was just a offering chip to suffer for all of the female leads foolish actions.
Moving on also i really liked his spirit beast i wished that they focused more on her relationship with rou yu instead of forcing her to be in a one sided relationship with the idiotic male lead. she was also like a offering chip for the male lead anyways when she died i cried it was pitiful that she only loved a man who kept offering himself up for a foolish woman.
Anyways moving on to the sect leader why were they so weak ?? like almost off the demons could take them down aren’t they supposed to be strong or whatever, also the female lead was literally throwing them like rag dolls any chance she got that was pathetic.
The villains in this drama were pretty laughable it’s like they would survive over and over again to wreak the same havoc then mysteriously leave but anyways moving on..
Finally the female lead omgg she was my favorite in the beginning but then she slowly became my least favorite her and the ML. she had little to no trust in the male lead even though she would say she believed in him she would double back whenever one of the sect members sparked a bit of doubt in her and do all of her tortures acts to the ML. then the male lead would go through the same cycle of suffering for her over and over again . Their relationship was toxic and was built of the fact that they went through tribulations together so they have to stay together because she hurt him in his past 9 lives.
Also linglong storyline was so unnecessary like literally her trauma made no sense because why is the flower demon memories trigger you and the fact that she “overcame “ her depression when sixth senior finally decided to marry her is pitful.
Overall the storytelling was decent the storyline was also pretty decent but the romance part of this drama for me ill pass thank you.

This drama is incredibly overhyped and not worth your time
The first few seconds of the first episode were intriguing but as the storyline progressed you could see how the drams gradually got boring and wasn’t as strong as how it started off i wouldn’t recommend i dropped it on the second episode the only good thing about this drama was IU outfits other than that everything was terrible and boring i expected more from this drama especially with all the hype that was behind it also i think this drama should’ve been 12 episodes max 16 episodes was a big stretch for the garbage of a showWas this review helpful to you?
