One of the best dramas of the year 2022. If you are a fan of Xianxia or Wuxia, this one is for you.
If you have watched dramas like "Love Between Fairy and Devil" This one is something you don't wanna miss.
STORY : The story is about star crossed lovers. Heavenly Realm, the home of our main leads Yan Dan, a descendant of four leaf lotus and Sovereign Lord Ying Yuan. In Heavenly Realm love is forbidden and the punishment for falling in love is very painful. Defying the rules, they fall in love.
As they try their hardest to keep their feelings to themselfs, Ying Yuan gets poisoned in a war against demon realm and Yandan saves Lord Ying Yuan's life by giving him half of her lotus heart, then her sister ZhiXi takes the credit for it and Yandan lets her.
She is later on framed for poisoning a fairy and on her way to get punished, she asks Ying Yuan that does he believe her. Ying Yuan knew all along it was Yandan who saved him and he knows about her feelings, but due to the heavenly rules and because he wants to protect Yandan from the punishment of love, he acts like he doesn't know the truth and that he doesn't love her. Yandan is heartbroken and since she was betrayed by her sister and then rejected by the man she loves, she jumps from the bridge of emptiness. Ying Yuan saves her from dying, but she can't be an immortal anymore, now she must go to the mortal realm. She is supposed to walk the night forgetting river and forget her memories to be able to go to the mortal realm. She couldn't forget Ying Yuan and walked for almost 900 years, until she was saved by Ying Yuan again and finally able to forget him.
When she finally goes to mortal realm, she is a demon. Her friend, our 2nd male lead who also is in love with her, Yu Mo, a descendant of the nine fins clan, left the heavenly realm to be with Yandan. He was searching for her for those 900 years in the mortal realm and finally meets up with her and brings her to his home. Ying Yuan is suspecting that something happened during the war and goes to investigate in the mortal realm. In the mortal realm he doesn't know that he is actually a sovereign lord. He is now Tang Zhou, a taoist whose sect kills demons. Naturally these two lovers were destined to meet and Tang Zhou imprisons her, but doesn't kill her. He starts slowly liking her and soon we are in the same situation all over again. Tang Zhou is supposed to be the next sect leader, therefore love is forbidden from him.
What i liked and disliked about the story?
I personally loved the story very much. I enjoyed that the story didn't happen only in the heavenly realm and the characters really shined in the mortal realm. The sisterly love between Zhixi and Yandan touched me as a big sister myself. Yu Mo being the best friend for Yandan was quite sad and beautiful at the same time. He sacrificed so much for Yandan but still could never take Ying Yuan's place in her heart. But he was fine with it. The love story between Yandan and Ying Yuan was beautiful yet painful to watch. It might be due to Cheng Yi being a such an amazing actor that i really felt the love Ying Yuan had for Yandan. The story was really full of sacrifices being made which was a little too much for me. They were literally ready to die for each other every 10 minutes..I felt like that was a little tiring. I really hoped for some kind of development for Yandan's powers. because i felt like she was just in the way a lot. She was told not to come because it's dangerous and yet she came and had to be protected quite a bit. Also another let down for me was the Ying Yuan's Azura bloodline. We are told about Ying Yuan's azura bloodline in the very beginning, yet i didn't quite understand how your bloodline could affect your personality. When we were told about Ying Yuan's parents, it was clear that Xuanye, Ying Yuan's father loved Ranqing, Ying Yuan's mother, but couldn't let go of his own greed for wanting to rule the six realms. He couldn't let either one go. "My love and this world, i can let go of neither of them"
So i didn't really get how Ying Yuan's azura bloodline could be a bad thing. And we really didn't get the explanation for it, His bloodline did activate in the last 5 minutes of the last episode.
The ending wasn't so satisfactory as i wished for it to be but it was saved due to the special episodes.
THE MAIN CAST:
YANG ZI as Yandan. I really enjoyed her acting as Yandan, she could play off the childish, care free version of her but also the mature version very well. She was to me a pretty standard fairy main role. "Cute" is the first thing that comes to mind when trying to explain her. She was cute but she was also selfless and smart. Yang Zi did a good job overall!
CHENG YI as Ying Yuan, Tang Zhou and Demon Lord Xuanye.
Cheng Yi did an amazing job as he had to act three different roles, even though Ying Yuan and Tang Zhou were pretty similar.
Ying Yuan was a responsible yet mischievious sovereign lord with the realms on his shoulders. He wasn't meant to fall in love but he did. Cheng Yi's acting when it came to Ying Yuan was top notch. When he was in love with Yandan, you could see it in his eyes and the way he smiled. Cheng Yi's smirks were everything! The hurt and care he showed towards Yandan felt so real.
Tang Zhou was very similar character to Ying Yuan but more free and selfish when it came to being with Yandan. Only because of his time as Tang Zhou, could he decide as Ying Yuan to stay with Yandan. Cheng Yi pulled it off so well.
Now, Cheng Yi, Cheng Yi.. He really didn't have to steal my heart like that but he did it and he did it as Xuanye. I feel like i just want a whole new season of Immortal Samsara but make it all about Xuanye. He stole the show. Cheng Yi as the bad demon lord was something i hadn't seen before and i fell for him in an instant. Hot, mean and cool. "DON'T BE STUBBORN. BE MY QUEEN"
apart from these two, i feel like Meng Zi Yi as ZhiXi really stood out the most for me.
THE MUSIC :
10/10. The ost Agarwood is something i've been listening a lot lately.
THE COSTUMES:
The outfits were everything! So beautiful! the costume team did an amazing job as the wigs for Cheng Yi were amazing and i loved all of his outfits! Yang Zi's clothes were also very beautiful yet they were pretty much the same. The best outfits had Meng Zi Yi and Cheng Yi for sure!
