What'd I just watch? I feel like what I just witnessed was 75 hrs of wasted money, time, effort, skill, and talent. Admittedly, I skipped most of it, as only about 4 min of each episode were needed for me to figure things out.

My goodness, this had the weakest plot you can possibly imagine, but the acting was nothing short of superb.

Without spoiling anything, this is the most pointless ending of any drama ever made. Nothing is resolved, except for the characters that are confirmed to have died.

The characters are idiots who can't even stay consistantly in character.

Cinematography is excellent. The main antagonists are the best, most interesting characters. Not a single character developes from start to finish. The worst, most useless characters are Muyun Sheng and Pan Xi. Muyun Sheng is the least sympathetic, and his father has a weird need to crown him king over his other sons, who could be better suited, just because his father killed his mother.

The best characters were introduced in the first few episodes, then they just disappeared in the last 20-odd ones. The best, most empathetic characters were Muyun Lu, Su Yu Ning, Muyun He Ge, Empress Nanku, and the dark wizard guy with the dodgy arm, and they all had relatively minor roles! Do not watch this drama. It's a weak plot with weak characters and the answer they found to stretching a story out to 75 episodes, is to keep adding more and more uninteresting side characters to an already uninteresting story.
