I'm assuming when the character "dies" she comes back with a different face (nobody will recognize her) I don't know for sure, but I believe she may swap places with the character played by Ju Jing Yi.

Episodes 2-5 will drop for regular VIP's at 5:00 today apparently.

Chinese SVIP's got access to all 5 at once though.

She was just in Chengdu for the Gucci event. She's back in Shanghai now I think.

I absolutely adored unhinged obsessive TTJ. So basically most of the Jing arc. Porridge-gate and after YXW's death was obviously peak unhinged TTJ. LYX played it so well. He was both very sad and sympathetic and creepy at the same time. (While still looking absolutely gorgeous haha . 😅 )

I thought that I was probably going to fall madly in love with these characters and their relationship. She's the first one to hurt him - to draw blood, they fight each other, he destroys literally everything. It was all set up so well. I loved the way it just went straight into the action. I thought the CGI was also pretty impressive compared to some of the other Xianxia I had watched.

Then she goes back in time and see's the beautiful mortal TTJ kneeling in the snow. I was beyond sold. One of the best first episodes I'd seen in a long time.

I kind of understood the miscommunication and intentional lying to each other. He's often suspicious of her because of the abuse he suffered from the original Ye Xiwu, and Li Susu never trusts him because she can never be certain that he isn't going to be influenced by the evil bone, or become the man who destroys the entire world. The mistrust and lack of communication is a thread throughout the drama. It's intentionally written as a messed up relationship. It was never meant to be healthy. But it’s actually downright sappy in comparison to how it was in the novel (which would never pass censorship)

Li Susu's mission was always to kill him to save the world, she never intended to fall in love with him, and she was kind of in denial of it when she did. She is often prejudiced (understandable I guess) and so does jump to conclusions sometimes. Always fearing the worst. She is conflicted but she still can't let go of that mission, betrayal or not. She helps Xiao Lin escape because he insinuated he'd kill himself and she doesn’t trust TTJ to let Jing Kingdom’s literal enemy go. A questionable decision on her part – not the smartest - but not actually intended to hurt him (at least not in that instance) But actions have consequences (including for her) in that situation.

I don’t know where you stopped watching exactly but the characters are kind of doomed by fate (or the narrative haha) They don’t get too much happiness. It’s an obsessive, hurtful love/hate relationship all throughout. It’s only in the last arc where they try to overcome it, try to learn from mistakes. While there are definitely sweet scenes between them, it’s not a happy relationship kind of drama.

I loved it, (and the characters) but it’s completely fair if it’s not for you. You wouldn’t be the only one.

edit* And while typing this comment, Megumi-H summed it up much better and more succinctly then I did. 😅

If we're all paid bots, where is my money? 😭🤣🤣

In comparison to some other dramas of the same genre which have 50-60 episodes, like Ashes of Love and Love and Redemption, 40 isn't that much. 😂 It could have used more actually.

If it makes you feel better, the pacing in this show is pretty good. It moves fairly quickly and never felt slow to me. So give it a go and see if you like it. If you do really like it, 40 episodes will probably fly by.

This is obviously going to be a matter of personal taste. But for me, it is absolutely worth it. It's become one of my favourite dramas.

Still too far for me. haha

Only You - Shang Sheng.

I'm so looking forward to this, but June seems so far away.

Probably won't be until sometime next year. I think filming will wrap in early May. So it will be a long wait.

You might enjoy Lost You Forever. I thought it was well done.

I also second the recommendation for Back from the Brink if you enjoyed LBFAD

+ Ashes of Love for Luo Yunxi in the sml role 😅

Not the only one!

Thank you for sharing your video. It's so beautiful and I love it! It got me feeling all emotional again.

It's not made by me, but this is one of my favourites. bittergrace makes amazing edits.

I think everyone collectively died with the full silver wig. Cannot wait until we see it again. 😍

It's definitely one of the more beautiful and natural looking silver wigs i've seen.

Well, it's definitely a look. 😂

he looks amazing!

I enjoyed Love between fairy and devil but prefer Till the end of the moon. I felt overall, the story was more engaging to me, the characters more interesting, and the love story more intense. It stayed with me a lot longer. The performances by the leads were incredible.

Love Between Fairy and Devil is a lot more fairy-tale like which is not a bad thing, it's just different. So for me TTEOTM.
