Much underrated drama
Initially, I was hesitant to watch this from the reviews and the rating of 7.5 here. I’m glad I watched it. I’m a fan of Olivia Wang and of all of her dramas that I’ve watched, she looked the most beautiful here and I’ve always liked her acting. I’ve only seen Peter Sheng in ‘Oh My General’ which I enjoyed very much but Sheng looks more handsome here. Kudos to both their stylists. I feel he’s a good actor as well. What I didn’t like is how long this drama is. Consequently, too much airtime was given to the secondary leads and side characters. The secondary lead couple is not like-able for the drama to spend so much time on them especially in the 2nd half which dragged for me.
SpoilerAlert
The first 30 seconds of the drama sets the stage for the rest of the story. The true identities of the 2 protagonists unfold as the drama progresses and I had to rewind several times to rewatch the first 30 seconds to understand who’s who. Qin Wen Tian is the successor of Diety/emperor Cang who, along with ‘Huang’, sacrificed themselves to save the world. Deity Xi is Huang’s husband and swore enmity with the rest of the world after Huang’s death. Mo Qing Cheng is the daughter of Huang and Xi though few knew it and not even Mo and Xi until much later. The story is about the 2 protagonists, QWT and MQC, 500 years after Cang and Huang’s death, their background, how they met, their adventures with other side characters, evil court politics and what they were ultimately destined for.
Bai Qiu Xue is the fiancée of Qin Wen Tian from childhood. She and her family publicly broke off their engagement and humiliated the Qin family all for riches, reputation and power. Such an annoying character and her excuses for her bad deeds seem to be jealousy and ‘I have no choice’ . She got engaged to the handsome villain, Ye Wu Que, after dumping QWT but regretted it after he got super martial arts power from receiving the heavenly ‘ soul stone’ as Cang’s successor. I felt the drama focused too much on this secondary couple and the younger, tragic Bai sister.
I enjoyed the music but I believe there were only 3 songs. Thankfully, after 52 episodes, it’s a good ending for the main couple. You could say I’m a sucker for good endings.
