My thirst for Zhu Zanjin knows no boundries, so I even agreed to pay for the garbage I watched. Thank god the second main lead could pull off a much better story.

I don't understand why I was supposed to think the main leads were in love. Just because you give us some cute moments between the two, doesn't mean I'll ship them. Their romance was consists of flashbacks over the same OST (I do like the songs over the series BTW). I feel if the episodes were a bit longer or if there were more episodes to really flesh out the romance properly, I 'd be less mad. We are led to think FL was the one who saved the dragon king, but it was actually her lady. She was the one who said "hey, let's save this snake" but we are supposed to think the FL- I'm sorry the story sucks from the start. The writers invested no time in making a good story.

The dragon king is just an asshole towards everyone who isn't the FL and I'm suppose to like him because he is the ML and handsome? How low do you think my standarts are? Even towards the FL, you were warned you couldn't be with her for one hundred years, but you constantly remind her of your existance. You're being an awful husband to your wife (he doesn't even marry her himself, he just marries her off to his clone while stalking the FL from distance), you're being an asshole towards your only friend and you have no hobbies other than the FL. Seriously, the dragon king is either a jerk or in love with female lead, he has no personallity whatso ever. Like, the FL in her second life was dumb enough to pretend she could bring down rain (deserved to be excuted over her stupidity) and he fights immortals for that... like, dude. She brought it on herself. AND HE SUFFERS NO CONSEQUENCES OVER HIS ACTIONS. Did I mention the actor doesn't even bother making any facial expressions? Even he hated the show and I feel sorry for his (and the other's) wasted time.

The action scenes are so terrible too. There is no movement. No life to the action. Dragon king might be too overpowered for my taste, but that doesn't give your the right making the action scenes so lifeless and boring. Also, there is the whole "turning into immortal" sub plot that occasionly is brought up but nothing is explained and it doesn't end up playing a role in a show consisting of immortals and eternal romance.

I don't understand why the female lead falls in love with him all the times. The first time she thinks he is marrying to her lady (at some point we also told about her life but we don't see it- like how was she as a mother, how did she die ect). The second time he made her fall in love with him only to be emo about it. The third time the other dude who solid, good looking and a great man, but she "remember" Yuchi-gege so he wasn't give a chance and she likes the guy who is OP. I skipped most of the fourth life, but I saw she fell in love with him as a kid and I was like NOOOOOO. Their romance suck so much.

The second lead couple wasn't only likeable pairing, but I also enjoyed them as individuals. Xue Qianxun was what the ML was supposed to be. Qingqing was adorable. They made not only cheer for them, but I didn't want to skip their parts. I was fully invested in their story. They also made want to follow the actors in future drama they will be in.

And lastly, my dear Zanzan's character, Ming Ge Xing Jun, Immortal of fate. I guess every show needs a surprise villain nowadays. He was so little relavent I was mad. He is the Immortal of fate and they dare give him such a small role? I think FL's fate was written by him from the start to get the Yin soul (to control the world which was something the wroters farted at the last episodes with such a little built up). Too bad that the man loved he in love with that mortal. Now, I can forgive him messing with other's fates as you know- HE IS THE IMMORTAL OF FATE, THAT's THE JOB DESCRIBTION! The main lead sucks so much, I cheered at the idea of him getting in between them. If the plot was him trying to rule all the world I'd be so much more invested. Dude was acually doing his job. I get why he was against romance. Him getting a love interest (hopefully better than the ungratful dragon) would be more interesting.

Why can't Zhu Zanjin get a character who is pure like him and get a happy ending? Even as a side character, I'll take that.

So, even with the second leads and Zhu Zanjin, the show is no good. Recommend it if you are in a mood for a stupid story and don't want to use your brains
