Luo Yunxi portrays his character Tantai Jin with such depth and elegance. One of the most impressive aspects of his performance is his ability to convey a wide range of emotions through his eyes alone, from intense anger to deep sorrow, without relying on words. His eye acting is particularly great in scenes where his character is struggling with his inner demons.

However, in my opinion, what truly sets this drama apart is that Yunxi's character is an anti-hero with a dark and disturbing side, which makes him a unique and intriguing character. Despite his deep flaws, I couldn't help but root for him! Bai Lu's character is also a departure from the typical passive or whiny heroine we often see in c-dramas. She takes charge and makes things happen! Also, I loved the reversal of gender roles in many scenes, with Bai Lu's character constantly taking the initiative in intimate situations or saving Yunxi's character, who sometimes finds himself in the role of the damsel in distress.

I’d say this is a must-watch for anyone who is looking for a xianxia drama that delivers a fresh take on the genre. A+ from me!
