Enjoyable although very cliché
An immensely enjoyable drama but not without its faults.
Here are some of the positives and negatives for me personally that I’ve noticed while watching!
+ comparatively fast pacing for a xianxia (especially at the beginning)
+ great actors
+ some reversed stereotypes (ex: the FL is mostly saving the ML)
+ starcrossed lovers
+ surprisingly nuanced characters —> not all cultivators are good, not all demons are evil
- soo many overdone tropes (spoon feeding each other, the ML always catches the FL, so much blood spitting it’s getting funny (and difficult to take the MLs suffering seriously) etc)
- I’m starting to get sick of the overly childlike behaviour of FLs in Xianxia (although here it does make more sense and she starts changing)
