Chen Xi yuan

Great main male and female leads! Acting from those two really made this series so enjoyable. After watching I am a big fan of Ni Ni and Chang Chen. Chang Chen as God of War was perfect. So much charisma. I normally dislike the cliche cute, innocent, kind female leads in Asian dramas but Ni Ni made her character so believable. Can't help caring for her as Jiuchen does. I could not finish very popular ten miles peach blossom (although the male lead is good but not as good as Chang Chen to me in that series. I found the supporting characters annoying and the female lead/character also not as good) but love this one. Better supporting cast and stories as well. Can understand antagonists' motivations more, not just pure evil. If you don't know much about Asian mythology it may be a bit confusing story wise and who's who. Just minus one star since I felt the pacing could be slightly better. A little draggy in the middle then felt a little rushed at the end.
