This was a very very simple drama. Some may interpret that as it being boring but I think it's simplicity makes it shine truthfully. It's one that gets better with every episode. Around episode 7 is when I was finally hooked in, and after that it was really just an easy uphill climb.

I loved how all the characters connect in some way past present or both. The relationships the female lead has with all three male leads are so unique and beautiful. The simplest thing about it I would say is the “lead” relationship (Huo Zhan Bai x Xue Zi Ye). Her relationships with Mingjie and Miao Feng are super complex and drew me in entirely. Them appearing in the later half is in part what makes it more enjoyable as it proceeds. When we're just with the first half it can seem slow, but after finishing I look at it overall as more of a slice of life drama thrown into wuxia environment.

The culmination in plot was actually really well done and exciting. It uplifted the pace in a way that had me wanting 40 episodes instead of just the 32 we got, which is surprising because typically 40 episode cdramas become my enemy.

I originally had it at a 7, but once they stepped outside of just the lead's development and let the female lead show her range of heart for others (specifically Mingjie & Miao Feng), I really began to love it.
