I really enjoyed the first half of this drama, there were a bunch of funny gags and the story was well set up, promising future twists and turns. The cast does pretty well overall, although they do overact a decent bit as this is more of a comedy. For viewers who enjoy xianxia and corny jokes, everything seemed to going great right up through the first adventure or two after the main party leaves the mountain.
However, I really did not like the ending. While it does kind of wrap up most of the dangling plot threads, I feel that the ending episodes were generally rushed and really did not provide an emotionally resonant conclusion to the drama. It also seems that the ending is hinting at a sequel and purposefully leaves some conflicts unresolved for this purpose. Even accounting for this I lost interest around episode 30 and had to drag myself to finish the series.
Good but not great due to an unsatisfying ending.
