good acting, great production, average story

Lets begin with what i liked and the characters.

I liked the MLs character the most. Strong, dark, ruthless and fearsome who doesn't lose his dignity, glory, power and influence for a girl yet was pitiful. His character is consistently strong throughout and never lost his spine just to become a weak shadow of his former self. He was charming and his dark side was even hotter. The way he protected the fl every time was so sweet, even though he had his agenda. Overall i loved dfqc from start till end. At first her constant whining to go back to fairy realm even after how she was treated there really bothered me, and i hated how she treated dfqc with hypocrisy even after he did so much for her, and all she did was create troubles for him, though i did understand her feelings for Chang heng, her first crush, a hero that all girls love. She was really weak and her being overly kind to everyone, every time isn't that amazing either, she was spineless mostly, maybe it's just my preference for strong FLs which she wasn't. But i did like how self aware, brave, persistent and determined and at times a little witty she was and she wasn't insecure about her weakness.The first time they swapped bodies was so funny.  She was overall a weak little girl with a big heart, too kind, ignorant and innocent and not the most likeable person, and i felt like slapping the hell out of her uncountable times for the first 16 eps. Later on i realized that xi yun was just supposed to be the epitome of kindness and benevolence and purity so she was always sacrificed so i accepted it. Chidi and xiyun were literally lambs to the slaughter, whatever happens they always took the worst hit, i felt bad for both. The first time they swapped bodies was so funny. Jieli was annoying and manipulative throughout and she was one of my least liked characters. Poor shangque. I rather liked Danyin, she grew on me as the story progressed. Rong hao was so evil and hypocritical and he was like a cockroach, never dying, well the so called heavenly king was a bigger hypocritical bastard, why didn't this dirtbag get punished again?

But there was plot development for almost every main character. The story was great too. Cast did a good job with strong performance.
Dylan Wang's acting surprised me here. He did it so damn well. The stupid weak behaviour of the girl, the devilish, cruel, cold and arrogant moon supreme, he did them both smoothly. This isn't what i expected after miss the dragon where i saw him first. This was my first time watching esher yu, and as annoying xiao lan hua with her weak and innocent character was, she did well as xi yun which i did not expect. i admit i had issues with her constant whiny voice and childish acting tho, her voice stung my ears and always behaving like a child was outright annoying, she is better in somber roles like xi yun and for the few seconds she was dfqc.. xu haiqiao as always played the bad guy. I like cristy guo every time she plays a good role, but she again didn't teach her disciple well and he fell for her again and did evil.. bad shifu. But tbh even though i dig master disciple romances, rong hao and chidi felt so wrong to me and it has nothing to do with female teacher male disciple, but the fact that she RAISED him from a child. She was more like a mother to him and not what was portrayed.

Loved the ost, cgi and overall production. Though sometimes the costumes of Chang heng and DFQC were too dramatic and new designs in cdramaland and i am not used to them, didn't really like them much either. Cgi was exquisite. The opening and ending murals were stunning. Glad that the fl got beautiful costumes unlike in most cdramas. Overall i liked it very much and would suggest watching it.
