This is a good quality wuxia with awesome fighting scenes!
There are good and bad points but I would recommend for traditional wuxia buffs
What I like:
- Fighting scenes choreography
-Overall production value including soundtrack, cinematography, real scene location, minimal use of CGI etc
-great acting by most of the cast, I especially like XF and LYS
-likeable main roles especially CLS and MRF. Honorable mention to LXM, HF, YZY
-story never went off track and romance are restrained
What I dislike:
-TGN and NL love making sessions, and they are very whitewashed in this drama compared to novel
-ending is rushed esp in ep 39
-some important role was forced to die under unimaginable circumstances, and the body or death scene was not shown at all???
-why spend so much time for the bad poison junkies in ep 40?
Overall it's a decent quality wuxia despite the not fairytale hea ending. I would recommend for wuxia buffs who love beautifully choreographed fight scenes ??
