what is right? and what is wrong ?

the blood of youth is period drama set in a fictional era and is full of mystery and suspense.it is quite a heavey drama with a lot of characters, excellent production, interesting plot with wonderful cast. the story revolves mainly around xiao se(latter known to be as xiao chuhe/the 6th prince& yong an wang) a stinky villa owner and his friends lei wuji a teen in search for experiance in the martial arts world and ye anshi also known as wuxin a man in his late 20's with the ability to look into once thought and minds whom he meets on a trip to xuyue city. the drama tells the story of their adventures and backgrounds which are interconnected in messy web of deaths and betrayals. it also talks about family affairs of xiao chuhe who is the most talented son of the ruling emperor and is a prodigy who is now leaving under the identity of xiao se since he lost his martial arts. he decides to go back to xuyue city in order to take everything back that belongs to him where he meets many other teens talented broad minded and vibrant with a clean mind and supports the truth as well as will give their life for what they value the most.the story is abouth second chance, clear conscience and to dream big .

my negatives ;
1)the main love interest between xiao se and sikong qianluo (although it is a very light amount) is kind of annoying because they are both mature making the couple kind of weird where as i preferred xiao se to be with wuxin (since one is croocked while other is funny and one is mature and serious where the other is funny with a carefree nature)

such a slow burn romance

this story was the most intriguing slow-burn love story that was well and very well brought to life. From character development to plot line each move and dialogue was well considered as well as well presented by the actors. From start to end many questions had to be answered. The excellent part is that not all of them were kept to the end to be answered and some of them were on purpose revealed to the viewer to increase as well as decrease the anxiety of the viewer. Zhang Lianghe did a good of portraying Xie Wei (Xie ju’an). another notable actor other than Bai Lu was from Zhou Jun Wei. Overall worth a watch.
{also beware of the kiss scene. they where wonderful}

“Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.” ― John Lennon

This story is the perfect example for this because i was having a mini heat attack followed by a short deppression because of how the 40 th ep ended, and i have not been happy like that for years(well the time between untamed and this)to find that there was a special ep. the story is quite messed up unless you are interested in something less romantic and more thrilling if you are a sherlock homes fan i would ask you to have a go with this. it is indeed a mysterious story. the author talent is making things believable was what is to be mainly appreciated.
there aren't may too unusual "coincidences" like other xianxia and wuxia drama i have watched lately.
casting cheng yi as li xiang yi and li lianhua was so stupendous and he did a great job bringing the character to life.
although li xiangyi and li lianjua are the same person there is vast diffrence in their attitudes and the way ot show the transition of the world famous li sect leader of sigu sect, li xianyi to a wandering physician(fake)who doent seem to care about anything but about how to die.
he meets a person fang duobing, who claims to be li xiang yi's one and only disciple and ends up teaming up with li lianhu(who is li xianyi)and solves a bunch of myserious cases togather and finally becomes friends and confidents.
they solve that that are related to a 100 year old conspiracy that is related to li xiang yi himself and about his lineage.

IT IS NOT A ROMANCE DRAMA AND HAS GOT A LOT OF MYSTRIES AND THRILLS AND IT IS NOT FOR SOME ONE WHO WANTS UNBELIVABLE STORY AND TWISTS.
YOU CAN GIVE IT A TRY BUT CANNOT GUARANTY ANYTHING TO EVERY ONE BUT IS THE SECOND MOST FAVORATE DRAMA IN MY LIST.

INCREDIBLE JUST INCREDIBLE

No, there is no need to read anything more. just watch, just watch and I am sure you will be back here to tell others about how the series is just beyond what one would call magnificent

It is not a review but a form of appreciation to everyone who gave their best in the making of this drama. I have no words to tell you how much I have enjoyed this series and everything in this drama is more than stupendous. from the selection of the cast to the set preparation and the post-production works there is literally no flaw. The story is beautiful and filled with thousands of foreshadowing and such a brilliant script. One thing about the script is that though there are a lot of stories from the past that are related to the story in the present, the scriptwriter Hai Yan did a wonderful job alongside the directors Kong Sheng, and Li Xue by telling them as mere memories that are just shards from the past. The acting by Hu Ge, Liu Tao, wang kai, ding Yong dai, and Leo Wu is just beyond the best, and the casting director Wei Wei thought through each of the characters and selected the ones that were maybe just born to play that certain role. such a great story such a true gem and my favorite story that I have seen. To describe it is beyond my capacity and if you want to know if it is drama you should watch I would say not watching this is a crime done against such a great piece of art

THIS IS THE WORST SERIES EVER. (DESPITE MY 9/10 RATING)

Ok, this was a good drama, not the best but a good one. the acting is good, the vfx, actors, costumes, action everything is good and with a great production but the story will maim you for sure. They use 30 episodes to justify a character and then they just tell that all those reasons are invalid. I mean wtf. This is among the one series where I wanted the villain to defeat the hero.
Now in detail. This is the second part of the blood of youth but chronologically this happens before the first part. Some actors who portrayed their kids return as their fathers in this season(like Langya wang& Mingde Emperor). The story isn’t as complex as The Blood of Youth and most characters are the younger versions of the side characters from The Blood of Youth. The story is told in quite a straightforward way and it isn’t as enthralling as the blood of youth. But you feel so miserable because we know the future of these characters(eg: consort xuan(Yi Wenjun), Ye Dingzhi (Ye Anshi/wuxin’s father), Lord Langya(xiao se’s uncle)). So when you know these characters closely in season two, you kind of feel sad and want to change the future into something else. Season one was an intellectual treat and season two is an emotional treat. Everything about the story is great. not much of a large plot hole. everything kind of co-exist. And the humor in season exists in season two.
Now why I say this is the worst, when it was actually great. Because of the ending. The story kind of emphasizes karma but the wrongs that were committed by the second lead(Ye Yun) are actually justifiable when compared to the wrongs committed toward him. You will also be deeply disappointed in some characters:
i) Xiao Ruofeng ( Langya lord ); this guy was the holy beacon of righteousness and then he deeply disappoints you. But then his death in season one is kind of less agonizing when we hear the backstory
ii) Ye Dingzhi (wuxin’s dad); this guy is supposed to be the worst in season one but then in season two we learn that he is just a broken hero, a fallen angel, and a victim of injustice, and then his death becomes more agonizing and when he fails that hurts even more.
Now should you watch this, yes you should. please watch it This is a great drama. It is a question and a statement at the same time.
‘ are the villains truly villains and are the heroes always right because they stay alongside the so-called righteous path and orthodox way when they are completely filled with hypocrisy, rendering evil within their minds.’

IT IS A 50-50. NOT THE BEST OR THE WORST. NOT GOOD BUT ALSO NOT BAD.

4) this is a series that I had high hopes for and it might be because of the same reason that I feel disappointed after watching the series.

If the story's main agenda and other things are not something you care about and you solely want to watch the drama for the romance or because of some actor, then feel free to choose the story. If not then do consider reconsidering. Some things just made me so fucking triggered and some things were truly beyond something I would understand or even some things were logically speaking complete nonsense.
But then again don’t just drop it because of my review as many have found this drama to be a good one

At first let me make this clear, from the very beginning I was not satisfied by the story. a few minutes into the story you hear the female lead calling the male lead ‘shi fu’ which translates to master. i am not someone who agrees to a story where the master falls in love with the student and if that disturbs you please do not watch the series but if that is not an issue then go ahead and watch the series.
The plus points of the drama include the cast and their acting xiao Zhen did well up to my expectations and Ren Min also did her role well. Some other characters also had notably wonderful acting skills. Then comes the vfx the vfx was a believable one, more than that a good one. The fantastical setting was brought to life with the help of such a great VFX. Some things are enjoyable in this series. The actors look, they look adorable and the costumes and other artifacts used were also elegant. Throughout the story production, an ethereal feeling was preserved.

Now the negatives. The main issue with the story lies in its plot. The plot itself doesn’t have many plot holes and things match up but the plot seems to be too long with useless incidents that were meant to contribute to the character development but then it wasn’t of much use. the way characters react to different emotions and under the influence of different emotions seemed unacceptable to me. (I mean no one would behave like that) then again each character wasn’t well written and thus that affected the overall performance of the actors. The story wasn’t based on and or wasn’t following any main concept. in other words, the story did not have much of any main plot other than the main leads' relationships with each other. the main lead evidently died three times and somehow just resurrected (ok that is fine for once but thrice felt too much for me). the next problem is something related the story just pulls up concepts and facts out of thin air to aid the story. The relationship was also formed based on some incidents only.


All together I cannot say that this was a good drama neither can I say that this was a bad one.

So all the best and happy watching.

"wounds tell other that your body is hurt. tears tell others that heart is hurt". give it a chance.

Writing a review to this drama is unimaginably hard. I just have no idea if I should rant the series or should I praise the series. I am not Chinese and facts such as if the vibe has something to do with Japan and all I have no idea. And again the story itself was something different and the production was also very different. The dark and ominous vibe of the gong house and the mist covered jiuchen helps the story keep its mystery. The start of the story was truly engaging but after sometime the story become different and the main leads story was not as notable as the second main leads. The climax of story was rushed through 2 episodes and that was truly disappointing if they had taken more time to conclude the story by adding may be 2 or 3 more episodes it would have been totally different. The ending was a true cliff hanger you really don’t know what happened to some characters. For example the ending of the female lead was indefinite. They really don’t explain about the after math of the second female lead. Leaving the male lead at the gates of gong house was terribly cruel .the story didn’t really keep me guessing till the end but was interesting. The male lead was less interesting than the second male lead. gong zi yu (zhang liang he) was a simple character and the character development was also slow and very simple but the second male lead gong shangjue (rayan cheng) was complex and the character clearly had a development and it was a good one too. Plus the relationship between male lead and female lead was said to be a strong one with less number of things happening to them and the character development was something related to trauma and not the relationship between the lead. but then again the character development for the second male lead clearly was related to the second female lead and there is a definite reason why they can be a good couple. The series was a philosophical one and the metaphors used where reasonable though some might find it dragging and unnecessary it was quite enjoyable to me.


Overall the one thing I can surely say is that you have watch this drama at your own risk. You might feel like troughing the entire story in the trash or could feel like keeping it a souvenir. All the best.
