Jiang Xue Ning (played by Bai Lu) had gone to great lengths to become empress, but was forced to commit suicide during a palace mutiny. Now, Jiang Xue Ning’s dream is to get away from power and have control over her own life. However, by mistake, she has joined the palace as a tutor and becomes a student of the imperial master Xie Gui (played by Zhang Linghe). While receiving Xie Gui’s teachings, Jiang Xue Ning secretly plans to stop Yan Lin’s (played by Zhou Junwei) upcoming “Blood Crown Ceremony.” With Jiang Xue Ning and Xie Gui’s plan, the Yan family’s lives were saved. After the “Blood Crown Ceremony,” Jiang Xue Ning is inadvertently involved in the imperial court’s plan to eliminate those rebels against Pingnan King, and infiltrates into the enemy camp with Zhang Jie (played by Wang Xingyue).

Lyrics Translation: Love Between Fairy and Devil Opening and Ending Theme Songs

Hey guys! Our trio of talented volunteers, Maymay and Becky (translations), and Lin (subtitles), have joined hands to translate the opening and ending theme songs for the currently airing drama Love Between Fairy and Devil, which is adapted from the novel Cang Lan Jue (苍兰诀) by Jiu Lu Fei Xiang starring Dylan Wang He Di and Esther Yu Shu Xin.

It follows the romance of the ancient Demon King resurrected thanks to a powerless, immortal Little Orchid. The beginning sounds quite humorous with them inhabiting each other’s body causing the demon clan to be stupefied by their Lord’s behavior from time to time. Our trusting Little Orchid slowly defrosts the cold, arrogant, powerful Demon King.

Leaked images of Heaven Official’s Blessing as Zhang Ling He and Zhai Xiao Wen begin filming

Heaven Official’s Blessing (天官赐福) is an upcoming ancient drama adapted from the novel written by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu (The Untamed). Our two male leads have quite the history. The story begins 800 years ago, one of our male leads is Xie Lian (Zhai Xiao Wen), a beloved Crown Prince from Xian Le kingdom who has a grand wish of helping the common people. A child prodigy, he’s given a chance to ascend heaven at age 17, but is unfortunately demoted back to the mortal realm due to some unforeseen circumstances (bad decision, good intentions). He never gives up, that is his saving grace trait. Though he lives in poverty and has to work every job possible, he perseveres for his belief in helping people. He’s once again allowed back to Heaven, just to be banished a moment later (lol, this poor kid). 800 Years later, he’s given another chance to ascend heaven but isn’t very well-received. His first task is to kill ghosts in the mortal realm and this is when he meets the other male lead, Leader of Ghost City (Zhang Ling He). Unbeknownst to our Prince, Leader of Ghost City has been harboring a crush on him for 800 years. Turns out, the Crown Prince saved the boy during his first ascension. The lightning bolt of love hit then and it looks like a deep one.

I can see why some fans are upset with the styling, it’s the same hairstyle in the manhua for Zhai Xiao Wen but I don’t think the style fits his face well. Zhang Ling He is gorgeous to look at and his red clothes reminds me of Zhan Zhao. Lol. Since it’s still the early stages of filming/testing out costumes/hair, let’s relax and see how they will alter the details going forward!
