Queries related to the Novel and ALP

 Coriander:

Yes,  I read on wiki drama, CHS character listed as Chong Zao/Mo Li. Now I'd like to imagine that the young master of tribe, Mu Jiu = A Jiu in TLI lol but the timeline doesn't fit since MM happened after YQ died.

Oh how cool it would be, if all these three universes were connected just like in the novel!

Mu Jiu is a member of Fox clan, relative with A Jiu. Mu Jiu is 1-2 generations after A Jiu. In the novel, by the time the story of Bai Shuo started, A Jiu already moved to God Realm more than 200 years before.
The structure and timeline of MM's story has been changed from its original novel. Thus they referred the closing or collapse of God Realm to the event when Xuan Yi/Mingqi's war in god realm (right after Shang Gu's martyrdom

 Coriander:

guys, drama mentioned something about Mo Li but I didn't pay attention... is he the hidden lord they mentioned that 60000 yrs ago caused the fall of divine race? so Mo Li = Xuan Yi (ALP) and Ming Qi (TLI)? I

I think Mo Li is loosely connected to Xuan Yi/Mingqi 

 Shangguan Qian:

I really really wish one platform had made all 3dramas- ALP, TLI,MM. Then we wont have to worry about getting confused regarding character names and timelines.. 

The novel Shang gu was completed in ~2011. It took 2 years to write the script for ALP based on Shanggu. And that drama was filmed in 2020 by a newly founded company - Xixi Pictures. It is the first xianxia made by that company. While Goddess Bai Shuo is not completed by now. It is impossible for a new company to buy all the IPs at that time. 

 Coriander:

Oh I see.. it's not A Jiu indeed. H, thank you for explaining!

In the cast, Dai Si played as Chang Mei. In The Last Immortal, Chang Mei is assistant of Fox Clan leader Hong Ruo whose name is Chang Qin in the original novel. Chang Qin appears in both Shanggu novel/ALP and Hidden God novel/TLI. And in ALP, Dai Si played as Chang Qin too. LOL She specializes in playing Fox demon :D
In the end of TLI/Hidden God. Hong Ruo/Chang Qin died. And Chang Mei became leader of Fox Clan. A Jiu in TLI was nephew of Hong Ruo/Chang Qin. Mo Jiu in MM is Chang Mei's nephew

 Coriander:

I don't remember Chang Mei as Hong Ruo assistant LOL in TLI.  So Chang Mei in TLI = Chang Mei in MM? So fortunate that they can keep her name on two dramas

I don't remember the detail of TLI but I remember the novel Hidden God much clearer.
When Yuan Qi and A Yin first came to Fox Clan to search for Feng Ying's spiritual soul, they fist talked with Cheng Mei. Then in Yuan Qi's birthday party 1000 year later, It was Cheng Mei who came to the Heavenly Palace to send Yuanqi greetings from A Jiu and remind Feng Ying about the marriage agreement between Feng Yuan (Feng Ran in ALP) and Hong Ruo (Cheng Qin in ALP). Chemg Mei was mentioned as Clan Leader in the novel Bai Shuo since in the end of TLI Hongruo/Cheng Qin died.
I don't remember her Hong Ruo's assistant's name in the drama TLI. Since she was not mentioned in ALP, thus I did not pay attention if her name was changed in the drama version. However, I just checked the page of TLI and found a character with the name Hong Mei. I think she corresponded to Chang Mei in the book Hidden God and Chang Mei in MM and its original work

 Coriander:

As soon as I caught up the latest eps, I wanna rush here to ask you LOL. RX-LL happened a thousand years ago = during TLI timeline?

What does RX-LL stand for? Rong Xian and Ling Long? If we place RX-LL inline with other drama, then it indeed happened during TLI timeline. But if I remember correct their story in the novel Bai Shuo was not the same. There was no massacre in Fox Clan during that timeline.

MM has a lot of chances from the origial work and it was placed in the timeline in parallel with ALP.  Meaning, the god realm in MM corresponds to the God realm in ALP. and what happens in MM corresponds to the post ancient time, 60 000 year after the God realm closed/collapsed. Thus MM timeline is in parallel with the 2nd lives in ALP - Qing Mu and Houchi's life and later

 H19279:

Thus MM timeline is in parallel with the 2nd lives in ALP - Qing Mu and Houchi's life and later

Okay this is make sense since they always mentioned about it.

 H19279:

Gosh I wanna rewatch both ALP and TLI to see it myself, but my hands are full. Plus watching 2 on-going xianxia right now, feels like I'm having emotional damage already LOL.

 H19279:

"Ning Yuan" is about the life of that disciple after several lives in reincarnation.

Ooh nice! I'd love to see the extended universe!

 Zack:

have a question who is Chong Zhao / Yin Zun Mo Li in the earlier dramas and novel? is he a God? Good or Bad?

No clue since the script writers changed the their story and background in earlier lives in God Realm. I guess Mo Li was inspired by Xuan Yi from ALP or Ming Qi in TLI

 CJKdramaAddict:

The whole fox clan ain’t making scenes for me I’ve given up with the thought that they’re connected. They’re just separate stories for me now bc A Jiu’s parents were killed by bad ppl while Mu Jiu’s died from Feud between 2 parties. Everything is so different and none have connection… TLI and ALP had a connection yes but this absolutely not with the former 2 so far🫠

As H explained earlier on, MM more likely has connection with ALP than TLI. because of copyrights, they kind of ruin the connection.

I can't believe they killed him, me and H were just talking about him and then on that night eps, he's gone?! I cried until my head hurt and eyes were swollen LOL. 

Also I saw it on X, someone posted MM's death chart.. my god, are they gonna drain our tears? LOL
