    In the novel the Yi city act is just as short

     

    The drama tries to evade censorship so WWX's coming back to life was brushed off quickly. Even in the novel the author left out quite a few details so how he comes back is not very reasonable (hey, fantasy novel) but I will try to use my experience in reading many cultivating novels to explain this.

     

    I absolutely loved to ear/read your explanation! I have watched many dramas about cultivation and I saw other characters vanish in thin air because they were really high cultivators and reunited with Mother Earth or something so I think I understand your explanation. I only wonder how people recognize WX in the Mo guy body: were they alike physically? When he takes of his mask, he is recognized as WX but the body he "occupied" with the sacrifice curse isn't Mo's? That means they were alike or just the other guy was always with a mask so no-one really knew how he looks like??

    I have to read the novel... :grin:

    Don't forget to watch my fan made videos!

  2. Hi everyone! So I was rewatching the whole thing because I'm already with withdrawal symptoms!!! But I had a very very silly doubt some of you may think: what exactly did happen to WX during those 16 years???? After all, he died and "reincarnated" in the Mo guy body with the incantation or he was "dormant" or something??? What does the novel say?

    And do check my fav to tell me if you like it!!! I'm finishing LZ version of it too! :blush:

  3. Hi, everyone! So, I only got the last two episodes to watch subbed (though I already watched them anyway!) and I fell the rhythm to these last episodes is not so fast and exciting and some of the previous, but well... But I have one final question: for many times, WX kept asking LZ how did he recognized him with the mask on and knew he was WX and LZ never told him. I don't know if the answer is in the last two episodes but, if it isn't and I missed it, can someone tell me the answer? Because I haven't figure it out myself, lol! I'm also finishing a fan made video about WX and I will post it here after for you to make your considerations, ok?

    bye bye and love from Portugal, where it's very very hot!!!!

    :blush::grin::heart:

  4. hi guys!

    So i was watching the subbed episode 43 where LZ's brother tells WX about their mother's story and I have a question: what is the story about their mother? she didn't like their father? he forced her to marriage? they were abandoned? I really didn't get the importance of telling that story other than to explain why LZ has the whip scars on his back first...

    do enlighten me!

    :grin:

    very different from novel..

    do you think LZ will leave WY after all this..

      Reveal hidden contents

    anyway in novel, LZ married him and took him back to gusu as his legit wife

     

     

    you're right. they went through too much for just leaving each other. I was particularly moved by episode 46, with all those revelations Wen Ning said to Jiang Cheng. he deserved to ear all that as he was so unfair towards WX and I loved how LZ held him and cried for him earring everything himself too. I'm eager to watch that with full subs. But as the producers ended it, we can perfectly fit in the original ending in our imagination, don't you think? :grin:

    SPOILER ALERT

    I hope that this has explained all of your queries

     

    My God!!! I wish I had the understand of the drama and novel you have!!! Thank you so much!!! You really cleared everything for me! When I really love a drama/ novel, I don't mind the spoilers, so thank you even more for that link!!! I love how the relationship between WWX and LZ develops in the drama as it is more subtle and people who may be awkward towards a BL story will probably just find it a very beautiful story of deep friendship and care, and I have some friends that are so important for me as family so I like to see these relationships on screen too, and they have great chemistry. Yesterday I really laughed and was moved by the piggyback scene and the scene where LZ is drunk, because WWX was so caring and adorable worrying about him.

    thank you so so much!!!! now let's wait for the actually footage of all you told me!

    :blush::grin::heart:

    Timeline prediction:

      Hide contents

    41 Empathy with Chifeng Zun, Lan Zhan takes Wei Ying to Cloud Recesses

    42 Musical Scrolls at Cloud Recesses

    43-44 Su She and Burial Mounds

    44-45 Lotus Pier and the 2 witnesses

    46-48 Yunping City in Yunmeng (Empathy at Guanyin Temple)

    49-50 Remembering the past

     

     

    I could be wrong as to which ep that they will appear in but these are the things that they have left to cover based on the novel and taking out of the the BL stuff.

     

    I have just watched the last subbed episodes and am curious about some things: is Wen Ning dead or alive after all? And his sister? the real bad guy is that weasel half/sworn brother whose name I can't remember??? Why was LZ punished in the past - the whip thing that wasn't shown? why this "new" storyline in that old haunted village??? 

    :hushed: sorry I still haven't read the novel and all the unfair situations towards WX really bug me!!  

  8. Ok, so I just finished watching episodes 31 -32 subbed and I'm so sad!!!! :bawling:

    Will all the unfair things that happened to WX be sorted out?' and I felt so sorry for the Wen brothers!!!! :cold_sweat:

    not to mention the death of his sister...

    what will happen now? I know they are back in the present in episode 33 but how are things going to unfold in the last episodes?

    There was that scene with LZ being wipped as punishments... why does that happened? it didn't aired yet, right? 

    now everyone knows that WX didn't die? 

    Oh, my head is full of doubts and my heart is eager to watch the remaining episodes fast!!!! :heartbreak:

    though then I will have to rewatch everything because I will miss it like hell! :blush:

    Yes.. that is why fans are asking "new" fans to be super careful.. don't outrightly call out things.. and don't make it trend so much on internet that chinese govt takes notice..

    the drama may not even be allowed to air completely

     

    but honestly, someone who has no context.. may be won't be offended.. production has been careful..

    but then i hear guardian was more subtle than untamed and that has been pulled off

     

    I have watched Guardian when it aired and it's very very subtle, very much like The Untamed; they just exchange glances and are deeply worried with one another and willing to do anything for one another; I actually only found out the story was a BL novel when the show was almost ending, but it aired with no problems, just some cuts in the funding, maybe because of those issues, I don't know. I really hope The Untamed airs with no worries, especially if it seems it will have an happy ending. I can't get enough of these guys! :love:

    Haii..can i join?

    I finished the novel when i first watch 1 episode and i was awe- struck how LZ in really perfect in the drama. Wow..and WY just so adorable and has a pretty dazzling smile. I stop watched in ep 5, because i really can't handle the angst and sadness before they aired the present time. But soo many teaser and spoiler clips on internet. Lol. So far just 28 ep have english translate. And 6 more episode to the present time. 

     

    Hi! I am sure it's here somewhere but can you share the link for the novel again? Now I am even more curious to read it! As the story unfolds, I want to know more of the characters! :grin::love:

  11. @NEVERending Thanks so much for the info! I will be looking forward for the happy ending! 

    And that piggyback is just super cute!!! 

    I knew it was a bromance story when I started watching but I don't know the original so I can't tell if it's more or less according to the original idea, but I adore how they look at each other and, as someone mentioned, the subtle moves and messages that are sent even with no words... they are adorable... :blush: :heart:

  12. Hello, everyone! I haven't been to the forums since Ashes of Love but I feel too too attracted to The Untamed and I can't wait a day without some news and I know this is the place to do it!

    I am loving this absolutely and the two leads are too much to handle! But I have some doubts: I have watched all subbed episodes so far and the ones with no subs too! Will they come back to the "present" soon? And for those of you who know the original story, will this have a sad ending??? My heart breaks thinking it will be so, but I want to prepare in advance!!! 

    I read it will end in august, but the subbed episodes come out so slow that it's suffocating!!! 

    Hope to hear from you soon! :blush:

  13. Oh my God!!!! I just just finished watching Hymn of Death and my heart is broken!!!!! What a story and what amazing acting - again!!!!!! I just love this guy so so much, ever since I can Hear your Voice!!!!!

    The lyrics posted in the previous post are from the song "Hymn of Death"? I tried to find the song with lyrics but can't find it anywhere. 

    Oh, it will take me the whole afternoon to get over the sadness for those two... they deserved a much better ending... :bawling: 

    Now I want to see him fast in another drama with a happy ending!!!!

    I think I will finally paint this picture: One of my favorites!!!

    Hi, Everyone!!! I've been silently reading this forum, and usually never comment!!! This is my first time actually, and after finishing Ashes of Love this week, all I can say is that despite some gaps during the middle of the drama, overall it was really good, especially the storyline and romance from our leads!!! This drama definitely motivated me to join this forum discussion!!! I've really enjoyed reading everyone's perspectives and point of views! Thank you all for your comments and spoilers bc it saved my sanity while I waited for the viki eng subs haha. Also loved how Deng Lun, Yang Zi, and Luo Yun Shi played their characters so well <3 so sad that the drama is really over now :'(

     

    On the other hand, does anyone know if the instrumental ost for ashes of love is out?! I've been trying to find it...but no luck!

     

    Hi! Are you looking for the OST with the songs or the music only? You can find all the official songs in youtube. They are about 7. I can give you the links. As for instrumental music only however, I don't know of any official release yet. 

    :blush:

    Oh my gosh! Where'd you buy your posters of the drama? Official posters or unofficial? :D

     

    Hi! They are official posters from the promotion of the drama by I had them made myself from the pictures online. There are some pictures with more than 3000x3000 resolution online and you can have posters made with extremely good quality with that resolution. MIne are 65x95cm and they are gorgeous!!!!! And you can also make mugs and t-shirts and other stuff as long as you have good resolution pictures. I couldn't find anything to buy so I made it myself!

    I use my basic Chinese and Google trans app for weibo... I just hash tag their names to find news about them. That's how I found the video I mentioned before. I'm trying to find it again but it'll take awhile cuz I don't remember what I type to get that link!! :huh:

     

    There's some English sites that keeps up to date news on dramas as well as weibo news too so you can follow them if weibo is too much for you.

    Dramapanda

    WeiboTalk

    TrendingWeibo

     

     

    thank you so much for replying back! I tried to create a Weibo account but I couldn't because of the phone number they ask (my country isn't listed). Anyway, these treads in soompi are always an excellent place to keep up to date with the main dramas.

    Today I went to pick up two posters of Ashes of Love I ordered. It's the main posters of the cast and Xu Feng and Jin Mi. I had to control myself not to scream of happiness when I saw them!!! They were so so beautiful!!!! Now, I can put them in my bedroom and fall asleep watching this. Honestly, I can't let go of the show...

    :love:

    ^ I agree with you. My new addiction is stalking weibo. There's some gossip news about the two but since it's not related to this post I'm just holding it in myself.

     

    Tag me when you do make the thread!!! :D

     

    Hi! Sorry, for the slightly off topic of the tread too, but I don't understand Chinese but I would love to follow more news about the drama and the main actors too. How can foreigners check Weibo or other Chinese youtube like sites and post /take videos from there? That cute video with Deng Lan and Yang Zi someone posted isn't on youtube, is it? I'd love to follow more of the behind the scenes and stories of the show and the actors, not only these two but the others.

    thanks!

  18. Ok, I just watched the last 4 subbed episodes in a row and my heart is about to come out of my chest!!!!! What a rush of emotions!!!! Despite having watching it all with no subs, actually knowing exactly what they are saying now, makes it even harder to cope with the ending of the show!!!!:bawling:

    It was too intense and too beautiful!!!!

    :love:

    And I finally finished my second video. I couldn't help telling the whole story of Xu Feng and Jin Mi so I choose my favorite songs and made a larger video with the happier parts and some tears of joy and very few sad moments. I hope you like it and it's a way of remembering these two. I don't think I will be able to let them go so soon, as well as the other characters and the drama itself. It has been too long since I got so attached to a Chinese fantasy drama but this hit me really hard, maybe because I'm going through a difficult moment now and it was a way to forget a bit of reality and go into this beautiful fantasy land.

    I hope you like it and share the video with other fans of the show.

  19. these two episodes were epic!!! as so many of you, I cry, laughed, had a rush of emotions and my heart was racing all the time. everyone did an amazing job. how can someone say the actors aren't doing their best??? they are all awesome and these episodes prove it. besides, the whole set and clothes and everything is perfect. finally everything is back to it's place and seeing xf and jm together, even if for a brief moment, was such a blessed moment that all the sorrow and sadness and everything that happen in the last episodes went away in a second. even ry pain for jm was so vivid! 

    the happy ending makes it all worth it and I will be so sad to see this drama ending that I don't know how I will be able to let it go so soon... I am making my happy version of the fan made video so as not to let go of it but it will be difficult when it ends... unforgettable is the word for me. stumbled across this by chance but it will be unforgettable for me...:kiss_wink:
