I was excited to watch it....

I enjoyed watching the drama series. The story was interesting, the acting of the actors was good, and the music was ok. I loved the sceneries in the story, the special effects, and the rythme of the story was nice.

I did have some high expectations before watching this drama series , since, I have already watched The Destiny of White Snake. I think the lead actors in this story were too soft and gentle. They were both firm about their thoughts, their decisions and their care for each other; however, the romance between the white snake (Ju Jing Yi ) and the physician ( Allen Yu) was not felt well. The green snake romance in the other hand was more felt , but it was cut short too fast, and Zhang did not take him long to move on after he forgot Qing, and I don’t even know what happened to the guy after.

The Monk (Fa Hai) in the story his character felt too robotic, or too disciplined, and had hard time to leave a grey zone for certain thoughts or beliefs. His character kept developing slowly,

For me me the characters that stand out more are Jin Song and Qing. As far Su Zhen and Xu Xuan I enjoyed watching them together as a couple, but I did not feel the on-screen romance it felt more like friendly romance. Even though they both made sacrifices to protect each other, it did not show the spark of romance.

I liked the story overall, but I am not sure if I would re-watch it often.
