Watched 4 episodes so far, I can honestly say this fantasy drama is very well made. Xiao Zhan is at his best in both his look and his acting. Unlike his role in the Untamed, this time Shiying, is a very elegant, calm, a bit cold most of the time but occasionally witty character. Xiao Zhan's temperament just perfectly suits this role. And his look is just beyond this world. I can't find suitable words for it. His acting ability has notably matured comparing to his last fantasy drama in my opinion, more subtle but still very powerful in delivering the character's emotions. His acting is always very genuine and touching, especially in sad scenes.
Other casts are doing pretty good jobs too. The costumes are stunning and special effects although not prefect, are definitely better than most of the dramas in this genre. If you are a fan of Chinese fantasy drama, don't miss this gem!
