I watched this to just see silver-haired Demon Yuxi and it gave me more to like and appreciate.

Pretty simple plot. As they described it, the ML and FL are supposed to go through a love tribulation for several lifetimes. I was honestly not expecting much as the main reason I am watching this series is because I wanted to see the silver haired demon Yuxi. Lo and behold they let him out towards the last few episode so I had to sit through the whole thing. After silver hair Yuxi was gone, I honestly just finished the last episode coz, why not? I sat through 37 episodes, 1 more will not make much of a difference to me. So why the higher rating? Coz I am not picky and the drama gave me more to appreciate than just the silver haired demon Yuxi. And did I say they gave me silver haired demon Ding Yuxi? (yeah by now you should be able to tell I love love love love that character - the whole make up and costume and attitude works!!!)

What do I like about it other than demon Yuxi? As I said, the plot line is fairly simple. I do not see much character development as we are speeding through several lifetimes, and that is ok. If they wasted episodes on developing each character it would make the series longer and might get boring coz really, we do not need to invest too much on the "side characters" the ML and FL are playing. What I appreciated was they kept the basic personality of the ML and FL in each reincarnation. Enough to make you realize that the love tribulation character are still them - same attitude, same take, likes, just different clothes. I was honestly more invested in the love story of Jin Lou and Zihui. I wish they extended their last scene to show how Jin Lou introduced herself to the Zihui reincarnation instead of just leaving it with her running after him after hearing about his dream girl. Also, I love Jin Lou's violet dress. Lu Yu Xiao surprised me when her character started as the bad guy but i liked her character as her story unfolded. Jin Lian I appreciated both as the Molou Clan Protector and as Qian Ren. I am saddened by Immortal Li's passing . I could tell they were about to kill his character but it was fun while he was around. The small bickering interaction he has with Xiangyun made me smile. I laugh whenever I see Red Thread Master as I was coming off from watching him in another drama where he played a womanizer dad... I appreciate his love for Xiangyun though. The emperor guy, I don't know if I will pity his character or what. I mean really, the root of all the evil doings he masterminded was his jealousy. Even after Chu Kong explained to him that he was not interested in leading the clan and just want to be with Cang Hai, he plotted against his brother. Then compounded it with lies on top of a big lie on top of a bigger lie, you get the picture? So I guess, he got his karma? Xui Ming, I am guessing he got healthier after assuming the throne. I take his character as one of those who is not decided if he is good, neutral or evil. Its like, it depends on which side of the bed he woke up in. Confused. I kinda wanted to know what the Red Thread Master and Immortal Sun planned for the extra-strong thread/match they set him up in. Immortal Sun was one of the side characters who surprised me. I thought he was just one of those side characters the writer will kill off somewhere when the plot needs killing but he ended up doing something helpful to the side of the good guys that helped expose the sins of the Heavenly Emperor. I only liked 2 sound tracks. Well the other one is not really a sound track but a consistent background music they use when the ML and FL meet on their love tribulation (you know that one where a womans voice goes aaaaaaaaaa - I'm not a lyricist, can you tell? - with the drums?) so technically I like just 1 song- Only Love.

Let's not discuss what I do not like about the drama, that would entail how I would like them to rewrite the drama as and that is another story. Oh, what I can say as I don't like would be how they put silver hair demon Yuxi at almost the end of the story. He is just one of the ML side characters in their love tribulation but I wanted him to get more air time. I honestly thought they would make him a white nine tail fox, I was not expecting him to be a cat demon. But it works as the bed scene where he was rubbing himself on Xiangyun would not have worked and would not be as funny if they made him a fox.

Now, would I watch it again or recommend it? Now, if you are the type that wants to think deep, puzzle things out or into heavy character development, or intense story line, this is not the drama I would recommend you to watch. I would say if you are looking for a drama to watch to pass time, something that will not make you think too deeply, something to just laugh at or you just want awesome costumes, or if you also want to see the silver haired demon Ding Yuxi like I did, then you can give this a go. The CGI is fantastic, the costume design is amazing! There was more fight scenes that I was expecting which surprised me and I certainly appreciate it. Did I say the costumes where amazing? The costumes were amazing, especially Chu Kong's and Xiangyun's costume in the Demon Realm. So, have fun and happy watching!
