Those C-drama fans on a high budget xianxia drama drought can get excited now, Youku has scheduled long finished Till the End of the Moon (Chang Yue Jin Ming) with Bai Lu and Luo Yun Xi for April 6th, the end of this week. This is the drama I associate with Luo Yun Xi dressed like xianxia Sith Lord and Bai Lu in all sorts of more colorful and elaborate costumes but the two always looking like the world is about to end in terms of stakes. Luo Yun Xi plays a Demon Lord in the drama and Bai Lu is the powerful cultivator sent back in time to kill him before he rises to power, but then love gets in the way of saving the world haha. Teasing aside, I hope this drama is good and I can get back on a C-drama long watch wagon.

Well the wait was certainly long...I need this to be good sooo bad😅😋 Love the cast, can't really imagine someone other than LYX portraying this character.
I can't take him seriously ever since I saw his real, unedited photos and the various ways they try so hard to make him appear taller and stronger. I could power lift three of him without breaking a sweat.
@ah well LMAO! I feel the same, tbh. He is just way too lean to have a convincing commanding stature. BUT! In the novel he's supposed to be a hostage prince who was treated poorly, so his starving frame fits the criteria perfectly.
I have high hopes, but I know the adaptation will lack certain elements of the novel. Still crossing my fingers that his costumes will make him look good, at least.
@Coralie
I know the ML is supposed to be thin and starving but I think you hit the nail on the head when you said he doesn't have a convincing stature to pass as ML. That feeling of presence and power isn't there. It really is a problem for me. I look at him next to BL and her head is twice his size.
I don't know what happened because it wasn't this bad a few years ago. But it really destroys the fan filter for roles of this type or like the rescue show he did previously. Who would believe he could rescue a cat, never mind something serious. I don't know.
I watched many bts scenes of this in which he does his own stunts and some difficult wirework smoothly and elegantly ( I know some actors who look stronger than him but don't do this stuff, it requires good balance and a strong core ) it appears so that he actually is stronger than he looks, besides he is just a really good actor.
Nah, this is classic fan excuse talk. He has muscles, he this, that. I have heard it all throughout the last few years. The man has a problem and you are all waving it away.
If it makes you feel better, he can play businessmen and those types that aren't physical in an obvious way but it is glaring in roles like this. Or as I mentioned, in raw photos or videos that are not edited. There it is genuinely concerning.
I'm actually a fan of Bai Lu, so I've only watched him in love is sweet before,and they did a wonderful job in that one; but good for you, dissing everyone who disagrees with you with a fan label, just to emphasize on your point which is basically insisting on how a thirty something grown up man has a problem he and those who know him don't understand, but you do and can't take him seriously for that even though it's not preventing him from doing his job.If proving a point like that makes you feel better, fine...you own this argument.
Agreed. I generally avoid dramas of which LYX is the ML. I admit that I'm a looks freak as a drama viewer and LYX isn't up to my standards. I can't really take actors seriously when in the novel the roles they play are described as extremely beautiful/handsome while these actors aren't in real life.
Ugly people always want to set standards hahaha. I care about good acting, that is the main job of an actor. Looking extremely handsome like in novels is unlikely in real life because novels use literary figures for descriptions. In the Western it's the same, but definitely less noise is made for shallow reasons.
No role Leo has played is described as extremely handsome, so your point is invalid. If his looks aren't your cup of tea, say so without the need to search for pseudo-arguments to convince yourself that the problem is with him. Don't act as if all actors should submit to your personal preferences, especially when it comes to physical appearance (none of us can choose it, unless we go under the knife). If you don't like him, what are you doing reading his news? You clearly give him importance because you have an anti-fan complex.
People continue to support bad actors with scandals, so why can't people support or take seriously a GOOD ACTOR who pretends he is taller and stronger than he really is? It's just excuses to promote disdain for him because oddly enough his weight and height is the only narrative to attack him that exists.
Agree! He has no scandals and is a good actor. Perfect for me.
He can definitely carry Bai Lu, in TTEOTM's BTS it is clearly seen. But you guys always give your opinion without knowing. Narrow minded trait.
Besides, he is taller than her. So your point is destroyed.
This drama looks gorgeous!!! And the leads are from love is sweet,they were perfect there,gonna be fun to watch them in a different genre and setting. From what I've seen of the bts clips, they both have worked really hard for this, hope it pays off
Aaaaah finallyyyyy🤩i hope its true
Everything about this drama looks good i didnt really like the novel that much but somehow the drama got me excited ever since it was first announced because i like the actors and was curious about how some of the arcs are going to be adapted in drama
Eagerly waiting for april 6th!

I read 1/3 part of the novel and drop it because the plot just to dog blood, ML & FL are unlikeable, the ML pure evil (scum) and FL is hypocrite. I HATE IT SO MUCH.
Curious how this kind of material got drama adaptation 😂 well, maybe i just not their market since it isnt the first time c-drama have dogblood plot like this.
ML is evil because he can't help it. But his devotion and love for the FL is real, at least. The FL - she was trying too hard on her crusade against evil, when she knows what she's doing isn't honorable either - just in the name of "greater good." She does sort of acknowledge this which is why she sacrificed herself for him.
I wouldn't call this novel perfect by any means, but the angst development was well defined. I still find it hard to believe she would love him, despite his crazy ways. But he does go through a lot to be with her, so I guess any girl can be swayed by that
Nah it still make me doesnt like them, since so many tragedy happen (direct or indirect) because of this couple 😂
But i know it the author favorite plot, her other 3 novel also have similiar premise like this. But her second and third have good execution.
Can not wait for this.....need me some lyx in costume:)
Pleeeez be goooood!
