And am I the only one who is a fan of YHY? :P She is cooool. I want to see her more in another period drama, but so far she only has this and Legend of Condor Heroes *sigh - have already watched it*

I like her too! I think she is so pretty and cool from what I've seen so far. I'd prefer to see more of her character than MSS :lol:

@rhaps  I like her too, sorry for taking to long to answer. Got distracted from reading the novel and all my frustration needed an outlet to release all this anger.  @raziela  I too prefer her to Mo Shan Shan. She is a good fighter and had a crappy childhood. But she made something of herself and just happy that her faith isn't as corrupted as LQ. I pity LQ can't really hate him like @lynne22  said none of the characters in the drama/novel are good or evil.

I think in Mao Ni's work no one is ever truly good or bad.. they all have their reason, its all in our perspective in reading them.... everyone can be a hero in their own story... either its NQ.. or LQ. 

 

@UnniSarah I like Fu Zi even tho he's an irresponsible teacher LOL. But he has his reason in placing NQ in seclusion... Fu zi is not a noble person, and can even be little selfish at times but he's true to himself, and that for me is what matters most.

 

Let me share this story....... 

  Reveal hidden contents

In the future, Fuzi during his trip with NQ and SS, will share his past, he was one a scholar bla bla bla... and the end he was roped in helping to build the Tang Empire with the first emperor. Chang An city as an array etc was build under his supervision. So he told NQ, of course the pestle [Yan Se's last gift to NQ] belongs to NQ, because NQ is not only Yan Se's student, he's also his student LOL.

 

Anyway, when the first emperor became muddle head and can't govern the empire well, Fu zi didn't have any choice except to kill that emperor and crown a new one. This part of a history, in the future will be repeated by NQ, where he's going to be the one to determine the next emperor as in his rights as Fu Zi's student. [I still feels the chills remembering what NQ did] 

 

Fu zi created the academy as the pilar of Tang Empire and he help to build this empire... So even tho this is an arrogant way of thinking as the oldest person alive, he does have the right to decide the matters of the Empire. But rest assured he doesn't do this forever.. I think even before the current emperor take the throne, he doesn't interfere much with empire matter anymore. 

 

In my opinion, NQ is proud of becoming FZ and academy's student, not because of the prestige but more because he fells like he fits in... fu zi is not a noble person, and so is NQ.

 

Just like when NQ was upset when he's questioned of his worth of being Yan Se's student, when he finds out that Yan Se lied and sell a fake Chicken Soup calligraphy he feels happy haha.. because his master is not as noble as everyone thought.....

 

Its weird when we think about it.. but its how NQ's mind work I guess. He clearly know who he is.. and noble he is not.

@UnniSarah Yessss :D

  Reveal hidden contents

He's executing the late emperor's last will, that is The 6th Prince is the successor.

Li Yu, after the emperor's passing fake his edict, and raise her brother as the emperor.

NQ will escorts the empress and 6th prince back to the capital to correct this. 

There's a strange moment of bonding between the Empress with NQ later on because they just realized they're both are using Devil's cultivation. And apparently the empress is 3rd Sister's student so its awkward hahaha... 

 

@angelangie Yeah you're right.... lol... the students in this story are left to fend for them self... :sweatingbullets: 

But I gotta say the old dudes in Jiang Ye is pictured in better light compared to Mao Ni's other book Ze Tian Ji.... here, they're old, so they don't wish to interfere much and let the youngster grow on their own.. and the teacher can only hope that they can be better than them self..... 

 

 

Omg as i read the novel spoiler as i get more nervous and worried, if the production team dont have CFY to continue EN S2 or maybe S3, i dont know what will happen with the series, since NQ character is getting more and more complicated because of his status and condition in future. Main cast for NQ is very crucial, dont think Dylan Wang cant execute this, i hope they will use a strict audition to get a proper main cast. 

 

The same with CFY, he started his career with awesome projects like secret fruit and EN, i hope the next project like the Awakening, and others will have the same standard or higher. Wishing him to do filter for any script offered, not just to fill in some spare time between his works and school schedule. Hopefully he will ask for advices from his parents.

 

Just my two cents

 

Oh btw i found this in Instagram, credit @isecretfruit.

@epinklyn yeah I agree. 

And also Chen Fei Yu as Ning Que has already left his mark on this character. Eventho he’s still young and there’s still room for growth, in my mind as the viewer he’s already the NQ in the story. Personaly its hard for me to imagine another NQ. :tears:

Ok fellow fans....I just saw episodes 35 + 36:

 

Spoiler

I giggled Re Sang Sang’s ET finger of light. Gahh please don’t turn this into a Romeo & Juliet type of endgame Re NQ and SS. Actually, it the author keeps true to Daoism philosopy - there is hope because there is harmony in both light and darkness and they co-exist because of each other. It’s not light (SS) vs. dark (NQ) where one side has to win because of the false equivalency of attributing good = light and evil = dark but that both needs each other to coexist in reality. One aspect or theme I really love about this story because it is found in many relationships dynamics (Empress vs Princess), (Demon vs Xiling) etc. 

 

The Xiling Nomadic Gugu was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay annoying and seriously overacting (>.<) and maybe I was irked because the streaming site kept pausing and I had to rewatch her scenes a few times lol. Ugh. I also expected more of the Flower Princess but she's so like LQ.

 

I think MSS is also very sweet and it's understandable that there's chemistry between NQ and her and vice versa but seeing them oogle each other in that candle tent calligraphy scene was a bit hard because I was thinking of SS the whole time lol.

 

I'm just impatient re SS's development though since it's snail pace lol. I'm annoyed at the Princess and the disciple of the Tang State Proctor too. They got off wayyyy too easy.

actually it wont be for only NingQue, it is sometimes hard after a character take root for someone else to imagine someone else in that shoes.....unless the whole cast is change.....

 

True true true, the chemistry between the cast also may affected, despite the seniority and experience as an actor, chemistry is hard to get.

One more thing that this show makes me crave is Chinese style hand made noodles. I have always love noodles but I am so tempted to make my own version of the wide noodles with Sichuan peppers, spring onions and fried egg lol. Every time I saw SS makes it on the show, I really crave it. Drools. Now I am hungry but it’s 11:24 pm here so noooo - I will go to bed and look forward to tomorrow being Wednesday etc.

You know what I find somewhat funny... throughout the novel and/or drama It is suppose to be Wuxia, however the book have mention about modern building, food, or technology....and there is no explanation about it except that NQ remember his past life which is from the Modern world. Like at one point NQ talk about Greek.  I was like....they know about Greek??? Ahahaaaha I don't know I just get a kick out of it....

 

Off topic...sort off....

Now I remember where I've see MSS.

 

She was in Mystic Nine as Lay's wife....

Listening to this song makes me think of NQ & SS too.... sad......

I'am so glad that CFY gain more weight when he play as NQ, in the movie and some event of Secret Fruit, he is so thin, his face too small, but in NQ is better. Maybe he was asked to gain weight and exercise a lot to get the propotional shape for NQ role.

 

Today is Wednesdayyyy yeayyyu Happy EN Day!

True.  I hope they cast a strong actor and don't just go for popularity.  I also think they need to cast someone tall who looks convincing in martial arts like CFY.  I think CFY's height and his physicality in the fight scenes went a long way for making NQ's character believable so hopefully they don't cast a mediocre, flower boy idol type. It's difficult because CFY had the right blend of boyishness and cheekiness and swagger and toughness and that won't be easy to replicate. Then again, I guess maybe his character will be more mature in the second season so might need to worry so much about the boyishness.

 

I think CFY will be fine in his career.  I like him but, truthfully his family are very wealthy and very influential and that has definitely helped him land his roles so far. He is a capable actor with lots of potential to improve, tall and good looking so the world is his oyster right now unless he makes some really bad decisions.

He's definitely done a great job of making the role his own.  The chemistry he has with the other actors will be hard to replicate.  Sometimes even the greatest actors can't create the right chemistry and it takes the audience out of the drama   I've said it before but his replacement will have a hard job.

There is a video of him working out so whoever replace him should also work on their muscles especially since they are going to have to do the cute Sang Sang lift Ning Que does when he's happy.
