Repeats the Same Old Tales

We have our two leads, A Yin and A Jin who start off in a Master-Servant Contract because of one immortal's need to meddle.
Anyway, A Yin is a rare beast who's internal core is sought after, while A Jin is the son of two True God but something something tribulation issue. According to the immortals, A Yin is A Jin's tribulation and hence a danger to him which is totally whatever because as far as anyone is concerned, A Jin is clearly A Yin's deadly tribulation.

I would say compared to many FL characters, A Yin is a bit more interesting which is why I continued the drama. She was complex, earnest, and stood up for herself from the beginning until the end. I started enjoying the drama far more near the end because of A Yin settling things like nobodies business. It's only a shame she had to endure A Jin. As for A Jin, oh A Jin. I have to say he was super annoying. Man will explain his reasonings to everyone BUT the person who needs to hear it most. He also effed up so many times, it became embarrassing. The leads, also, didn't have strong chemistry which would make you believe their love and all their tribulations better.

Hong Yi & Yan Shuang were adorable side characters but even their friendship with the leads was still shallow. The acting in this drama wasn't entirely bad, but lacked conviction from most of the actors considering how lame the plot is.

Now, the worst part of this drama, outside of it legit repeating the same old shit we always see with wuxia dramas, was how ridiculous the power imbalance was and how no one questioned anything seriously. The Devils were incredible strong and had our supposed True God A Jin in a chokehold most of the time. The heroes were constantly "outwitted" by a much of idiots. The amount of times small fry immortals and devils got away with doing bad shit was draining. And even AFTER, it took FOREVER for consequences to be put in place.

Also what the capital F is the WHOLE point of an unavoidable tribulation THAT people keep trying to interfere with it. Clearly, A Jin needs to go through tribulation, WHY is ridiculous Aunt and everyone else for that matter trying to stop it. It is HIS tribulation to go through. Perhaps, I don't know, not saying i'm a genius or anything, BUT PERHAPS, just PERHAPS, he is destined to GO through such tribulation?????!!!! Ugh, whatever.

Additionally, with the amount of times I have seen wuxia dramas, I think I can safely say that Immortals will always be the bad guys.It is so tiresome to encounter this type of plot that narrates the evil of the Demon Realm and even the Devils, when the worst of the worst are always the immortals. They are also the dumbest realm out there who legit think they are better than everyone else.

It would be refreshing for once to not play that card but of course this drama does the same thing. I suppose it technically makes an effort to show the Demon Clan better but even then. Just one stupid high immortal needs to point the figure at a Demon say, "You see?! They are evil and did it! Destroy them" and enter into a FREAKIN war as if there is no consequences for such things. Also, never trust a Peacock, like ever. They are likely no good.

It's funny because I think there were some missed opportunities or elements that should've been explored more. One was the Nether World as A Yin constantly dying in the mortal realm and returning each time. It would've been better for the ML to constantly follow her into the mortal realm and endure those thousands years with her instead of just searching for her leisurely. He barely hit a dent in the investigation in those thousands years either which was again, so lame.

Anyway, I would give it 5.5 out of 10, that honestly may be too generous. Oh well.
