What even is this?????? I'm so confused??!?!!!! Why would the scriptwriter/screenwriter decide to make a story like this?????!???!!?

11 episodes into the drama and I wish I had stopped at episode 1. This drama really isn't for me. It has little elements from all of my favourite Chinese costume dramas, yet it somehow doesn't live up to their greatness (or even comes close). The story is all over the place, toooooooo predictable and ridiculously repetitive at the same time.

I don't care for the main couple. There love story is giving me a headache. Dragon King is doing so much for Liuying/Ah Yu, she'll never know until she gets her memory back. Then there's the Immortal of Fate who is sketchy is hell. And the secondary couple (Qingqing and Lord Xue) who are CARRYING this drama. All the comments on YouTube are about how cute they are and how people are only watching for their parts (I am people).

Then, the possibility of an unhappy ending is real. Like, WTF. WHAT IS THIS?!?!??!?
