Days before I started this show, I had read one fourth of the novel and found that it has a very promising premise. However, my expectations is cut short when the show began airing. I never expected that they changed the plot from the timeline, the identities of the characters, how the leads encountered each other, and blah blah blah.

Getting past 6 episodes was gruesome for me so I decided to use fast-forward and skip button, especially the Great Path Sect arc (I'm really serious, they need to have their senses knocked into their stupid heads). All I can say is that the whole plot is predictable from the get go. And why xianxia dramas love to show good guys in disguise as the ultimate villain? I'm tired of this kind of story and wish there's something more, though I can't set my bar high too much. Also, the writers attempted to create 'love at first sight' trope of the main leads. Even though I had no problems with them, it seemed weird for them to develop a mutual understanding in such a short time. The only redeeming quality is the comedic antics by Yin Ya and Mu Zhanting - their interactions are very refreshing for the upcoming angst in the latter part of show.

Superb acting from the whole assemble of casts especially Zhang Linghe, Jing Tian, Darren Chen, and Chang Long. I must say that this is the best styling for Zhang Linghe so far - he looks devilishly handsome and gorgeous in his demon attire. As for Jing Tian, I feel that her character needs a little improvement - at first she seems to be a quick-witted and strong girl, but in the latter half she is reduced to a damsel-in-distress (same thing happened in Wonderland of Love).

The OSTs are too mellow and not to my liking. Background music has a modern vibe attached on it.

Will I rewatch? Definitely a big no! I'm really sorry to say this but I can't stand this show any longer. A one time watch will do. However, if you're a fangirl of Zhang Linghe, then this might be the best show for you. Good luck and happy watching!
