reveal what plans? they didn't need that scene because if they were both in the know of each others plans then that scene is redundant. whats the point of showing her the past in the mirror if she already knows her past and ling er knows that she knows her past? that's a plot hole. at this point you're just a homer that defends everything and anything with no logic of your own.

that doesn't make sense. we're not part of the story and by doing that you've essentially created a plot hole.

that whole scene with ling er and the mirror was pretty meaningless because if they were both in on it then who's the audience that they're putting on the show for?

How? they explain their backstory from the very beginning and then it's one linear timeline from there. It's definitely a lot easier on the brains. Even Bai Lu herself said during these mortal realm episodes there are costume differences between past mortal world and current mortal world but if you're not careful you might mix them up. You put the flashbacks in the beginning and that solves that right away.

No, IMO this would seriously be a lot easier if they started with the mortal world flashbacks and then follow it up with her pretending which leads up to the fight and it just continues from there.

I'm not saying to not show the past. I'm saying to rearrange how it's shown for easier consumption so it feels more linear.

I get that but I want to know the aftermath of the fight, not watch a million episodes of their past. I just feel like this drama would be easier to consume if they just rearrange the timeline better. it feels like it's all over the place.

they left me blue balled at the fight just to do flashbacks for a gazillion episodes. my biggest complaint is the non linear episodes. even when you're watching at present you see the young servant turn old in a blink of an eye. it's way to jumpy and the time jumps are too frequent.

What if... the story teller child is their child??? 🤔

i know how you feel as a recent legend of zang hai enjoyer. can't say anything that isn't 100% glazing without some weirdo taking it as some sort of attack.

the drama seems to be setting him up to be that one bad guy that wants to become stronger at all cost.

is the FL like part of the rich elite in China or something? I just checked her dramas that she's been in and she's getting main roles right out the gate.

that's their visual cue. they stroke their beard while saying some scholarly shit.

because they're old and wise that's just what they do.

that tree girl is an absolute unit 😂

the shifu giving him food to make him pass out was definitely some plot armor shit. that was not in his plans or calculated by ZH himself so if the shifu didn't do that he would've died and his revenge was over.

there were also many times throughout the entire series where ZH gets himself in a sticky situation and i'm thinking this was all in his plans, but turns out, it wasn't in his plans he really fucked up LOLOL.

zhao bingwen is what i expected zang hai to be in this series. dude was a fucking mastermind!

she did too much yapping

he has death written on his wrist so maybe he was suicidal.

there were posters released a few days ago with ZH facing a bunch of different characters and my theory is the ones he was bowing to were his allies and the ones where he looks like he's clashing with are the bad ones. so far it seems correct with the dongxia queen, but he's also bowing to the king so i think the king is an ally. the third person seems to be 8th princes dad.
