You know I was going to recommend this drama to my friend, and quite frankly, this story started off promising and good, I remember catching each episode as it comes out... But then..... somewhere down the road... I guess it was when after Bai Ying lost her memory... It started to go down the path that I don't enjoy...

It really honestly felt like to me that at that time, while Su Mo really loves Bai Ying (whole-heartedly), but he has also given up on her at the same time... He even said it, it's okay if she can't remember, how he feel about her doesn't change...

And NGL I rewinded their kiss scene at the bridge a couple of times, because that was a touching moment to me, and then... in the final episode, while I somewhat predicted it's going to be a SAD ending... but I still want to give it a benefit of the doubt... All was looking good... until Su Mo's hair turned white, and I am like WTF is going on...

He exhausted his powers, SO, does he have to die?! Even the Dragon god and Shi She(is that her name), asked him what's his wish, and when Su Mo said that, I'm like "!!!" Why?!?!?! Why can't he think about how Bai Ying would feel at the end of all this?! Why can't he be selfish for once!!! And just wish that there's a chance for him to get out of this so he can live together happily with her?!

I cried, I literally did when he goes to Bai Ying one last time (even if it's in her dreams or something)... And when they hugged... Okay... I knew it's not going to be a happy ending... And then we got that ending!

Which I want to question, did Su Mo really come back?! Is that really him?! Or was this all an illusion by Bai Ying?! I WANT to take this that he came back, but at the same time, there's no logic behind how he could come back, and that made me so annoyed/frustrated and sad!!

SO... in the end, all I can say is that I feel like I wasted 43 episodes of my time to have it come to this! I feel like this drama really had a lot of potential, and quite honestly, I only stuck to the end for Su Mo and Bai Ying since they're my favourite couple.... Yun Huan ending was laughable in the end, his character didn't righted himself for me (he was pretty much meh to me...).

I don't like this kind of ending, because I hate that feeling of being so surreal, I don't even know if Su Mo is back or not. I can't find any positive feels after watching this.... I really wanted to recommend this drama to my friend, but I don't even know how to tell him about the ending... I don't want to spoil it either..

P.S. I am not fond of Yanxi being the emperor at the end, at the expense of Su Mo's sacrifice when he(Yanxi) really didn't contribute anything to earned that role as the Emperor, so I HATE this. I already knew he will be the emperor, since I got spoiled on this video, but I still don't like it...

I am disappointed with this. It could be better. And sadly, I do agree that LYF is emotionless failed to portray the expressions at times; so ...... I don't know why either. Why oh why!!! T_T

P.S.S. And... if I am going to be honest... I think if Su Mo is gone... It would have been a satisfactory note, if Bai Ying joins him so at least they can be together, not separated like this....

I love Su Mo, but at the same time, I don't like why he is so cut off from giving himself a chance to be happy in the end... I hate that it was said that he won't have a chance to reincarnate because that's already set that he and Bai Ying can't be together anymore, which is why I don't understand that ending, as much as I want a miracle to happen....

This ending was really, unnecessarily cruel after all Su Mo sacrificed!!!!!

P.S.S. And I thought Miss the Dragon was bad... But this one takes it to another level with that CRUEL ending!

Next time I will remind myself to NOT get into a human x non-human xianxia genre... by the way this piss me off even more because Yanxi and NaSheng get to have their happy ending... So why can't Su Mo? When he's literally the ONLY one (seriously) that puts in A LOT of sacrifices to have it end like this?! Yeah, I blame the writers and the script, and this is not even comparing it to the novel, I am not a novel fan (since I have not read the novel...)

Am I going to rewatch this? Maybe the beginning when everything was good... but not towards the end, because it went crazy that didn't make sense to me... Am I going to recommend this to my friend? Well, better to watch something worth the time... I wasted my time on this, sadly, even when I know it could really have been better, but the end sums up everything to me, so in summary this drama was a disappointment, looking at "characters (Su Mo and Bai Ying) deserves a happy ending, got an unjustifying ending while character who contribute nothing much (Yan Xi and Na Sheng) gets a happy ending... I am not saying it's bad for Yanxi and Nasheng happy ending, but in comparison, it is just plain cruel to Su Mo, because he was the one who sacrificed ALOT to have it end like this. I don't understand why Su Mo have to give up for a happy future with Bai Ying, when he could have done it differently... It all just have it end for the sake of it being a sad ending.... I hate this kind of story writing/ending!
