Quick Precis
A beautiful girl is harassed by a phantom moonwalker.
Nah, just kidding. TBH, I can’t understand a google translation of the synopsis! 🙂
But this should be gorgeous. Zhang Bin Bin in a costume drama is always a treat. He could just stand there with his long hair in his flowing hanfu and I would watch him all day.

Episode 1
Years ago, a phantom guy shrouded in black appeared before a young Liu Shao. He asked her if she would change her fate for the sake of traveling the various realms that he could take to.
Young girl Liu Shao agreed immediately. He took her flying in the sky, diving in the deepest sea and after three days he said that he must take her back.
I must say, this scenario was a bit uncomfortable. A guy abducting a young girl?!!!🤣🤣🤣
He then assured her that he will always be there for her and that in ten years’ time, he will appear again before her, well depending on his schedule.
Liu Shao waited for him patiently under a pear tree, she waited for 10 years. She was so sure he will come back.
On her 18th birthday, while she was with her parents having a chat, the demon queen appeared. He told Liu Shao that she was the chosen one to marry her son. Ao Hen tried to abduct her but her parents and guards tried to protect her but it was no use. Ao Hen was too powerful
Then young Lu Li turned up and battled with Ao Hen.
Episode 2
Liu Shao was forced to leave home because she was attack by every kind of demon which affecting her parents.
Liu Shao went to the mountains to join a contest to be a disciple of Wu Yang Duke.
She saw a man in the woods with good martial arts which impressed her so much. She then told him that despite being old and a lowly disciple, he was so good. Lu Li saw what was happening and tried to apologise for her ignorance because the man was Wu Yang Duke
Liu Shao was still clueless and asked who he was.
Lilu said that surely she recognised the lightning slash!
Finally, Liu Shao understood. She then asked the Duke if he could teach her the Lightning Slash.
Lilu was askance at the temerity of the girl.
The Duke was accommodating and performed the lightning slash again which impressed Liu Shao but commented that it was too fast and should do it again.
LiLu was shocked but the Duke told Lilu that he has two weeks to teach Liu Shao the Lightning Slash otherwise they are both expelled from the contest.
Lilu trained Liu Shao by bringing her to a moon bubble where time is slower, so they can train and practise to their heart’s content.
Episode 3
I must say the fighting scenes are enjoyable.
Anyway, Liu Shao saw her dorm mate Xue taking spirit splitting pill belonging to Xi. This medication is toxic.
Xue told her that she had to take the pill otherwise her mother who is the cook at the Xi manor will suffer the consequences
Liu Shao went to confront an arrogant Xi who said that Xue was lowly. Liu Shao was so irate she challenged Xi to the next day’s contest. Xi is the best fighter.
Liu Shao put up a good fight but Xi was really better. She managed to injure Liu Shao.
Xue begged Xi to not hurt Liu Shao any further.
Xi agreed provided Xue breaks her arm. This gave Liu Shao a renewed vigour to fight and this time she used the lightning splash which surprised everyone.
Lilu also won in his category.
Ao Hen attacked Xi and killed her which scared Liu Shao.
The final test for the victors was to catch the spirit fire. Liu Shao and Lilu managed to catch the spirit fire but at a great cost
Lilu used up 80% of his energy which weakened him to the point of death. He had to replenish it to survive. The Duke told Liu Shao that King Herb will help Lilu.
Liu Shao went immediately to look for the herb. The Demon King saw her and played his flute to put her to sleep but she was absolutely unaffected.
