Episode 1
The first episode is really enjoyable. Jingyi and Zheyuan have a good chemistry already even from the start.
Anyway the story needs getting used to at it promises many characters to get to know.
It started at Qionghua Palace as a prologue to the story.
The demons are getting out of control which made the people suffer. As this can’t go on, the Qionghua Sect, the head of Kunxu eight sects, though sadly lacking in manpower and arsenal for three generations finally decided to made the ultimate sword called the Wangshu and Xihe Sword which is a yin yang double swords.
The 24th Grandmaster Immortal Tai Qing proposed to use both swords to trap the Huanming demon. The war was long drawn out but a critical moment, Suyu, the host of the Wangshu Sword was overcome by the demon and withdrew the sword which collapsed the Wangshu pillar. Unfortunately, the Xihe Sword was not powerful enough to be a standalone, ergo Xuan Xiao, sword host suffered the sword’s red flame aura.
Grandmaster Tai Qing died in the battle. The Qionghua Sect lost their confidence, while yun Tianqing defected with the bewitched Suyu.
But miraculously, the Wangshu Sword vanished.
Generations later, in the isolated Mount Kong’s Qingluan Peak which was encased inside a barrier, lived Yun Tian Qing and his son, Yun Tian He.
Yun Tian He was a very curious boy whose friend/enemy was a couple of demon pigs. Yun Tian He was caught by his father trying to leave.
His father told him that there is no use leaving Qingluan Peak as the world starts and ends within Qingluan Peak. There was nothing else outside.
This did not deter Yun Tian Qing after a few more years, he grown up but his father had laid to rest beside his wife in a crystal coffin. He instructed his son not to allow anyone to disturb their tomb.
But alas, Yun Tian Qing could not carry out the order because a girl managed to break the barrier and sneaked into Qingluan Peak and later ended inside the tomb.
Yun Tian He found her but many things started happening including the Wangshu sword appearing in front of them. The sword then announced into the world that it was back with a vengeance.
Everyone who knew about the sword wanted to get it for themselves.
Episode 2
This is really good. I am liking it.
Anyway, demons and those from other sects started turning up at Qingluan Peak determined to get the Wangshu sword.
Suyao sent someone to retrieve the sword but Murong Siying suddenly turned up and assisted Tian Qing.
Afterwards, Han Lingsha convinced Tian Qing convinced to leave the mountain.
Tian Qing was not sure at first because he wanted to carry out what his father wanted, he wanted to protect the Qingluan Peak so that demon and mortals could co-exist in relative peace.
But then another assassins turned up and killed Big Pig Demon which upset Tian ‘Qing so much as he had been his guardian and companion. So finally, he went down the mountain with Lingsha who had become his master and guardian as he was not used to being with other mortals.
But then he found out that his father left a bad reputation in the village where they ended up. They almost got killed but once again Murong Siying turned up to save them.
Episode 3
Jujingyi is acting well as Lingsha.
Anyway, Murong Siying continued to save both Lingsha and Tian Qing despite finding out from the sect master, Suyao, that the son of the traitor Yun Tian Qing should be treated as persona non grata.
But Murong Siying, he can’t help but protect Tian Qing and his Wangshu sword. He tested Tian Qing and found out that despite not having any level of cultivation, Tian Qing is powerful. He was further surprised when he found out that Tian Qing could communicate with plants.
Lingsha who was doing a bit of a double dealing by giving intel to Gui Xi about Tian Qing and the whereabouts of the Wangshu sword felt rather remorseful when Gui Xi won’t promised to hurt Tian Qing when he had taken the sword.
Episode 4
Lingsha said that she wanted Tian Qing to meet her friend in Shouyong City. Of course, Tian Qing was only too happy to go with her.
Her friend turned out to be demonic and was after the sword. Fortunately, Murong Siying had already encased the sword with extra protection which prevented the demon to take the sword.
Meanwhile, there was an arrest warant for Lingsha for thieving. She was deemed as a bandit.
Lingsha was moved when Tian Qing would not let anyone take her and prepared to die for her. But then he revealed his name and the soldiers stopped on theiur track. They said that Master Liu had been looking for Yun Tian Qing, his best friend.
Episode 5
In order for Lingsha escape prison, she must go with Tian Qing and the beautiful Liu Meng Li to find missing people in the Nyuluo Cliff.
Episode 6
Tian Qing agreed to marry Meng Li without knowing what marriage is all about. He was thinking he could live with both Meng Li and Lingsha at the same time.
