It took me a long time to finish this drama because i find it too sad. I still do but once i resume watching i have this sense of wanting to watch till ep 56.this drama depicts dark and tragic realities of human's greed for power and yet it also let you see that in every darkness there would always be light. In every evil sorcery/,schemes there will be people who will fight for peace no matter how high the cost. Strong inner self and pure heart will topple evil everytime .it also shows the strong bond of friendships and love though i would have wanted a happy ending for the 4 ,asule and little zhou ,ji ye and yu ran but then each one has destinies to fulfill. I love the scene where ji ye comes to help asule . Im just saddened about asule's love life. Wish it could have had a better ending.
