You don't need to go watch the other prologue drama Ancient love poetry, but a little summary of them might help before watching. It's on the discussion page. I got really bored of "story of pearl girl" when it was airing, but i'm actually waiting daily to watch each episode of this drama.

The plot: FL is a goddess in her past life who is now a human, and she reconnects with the "Desireless stone" that she once created. The demon king ML needs this stone to heal his curse. Her main quest for pursuing completion of the stone is to avenge her father's death, so their goals align. He also starts developing feelings for her, while they both question what kind of person each other really is.

Side characters are mostly interesting so far. I feel like 2nd ML might become a villain eventually. Tian Huo actually got a whole story arc.

Minor negatives- Set design is very fantastical but in a corny way. By that i mean the rainbow carved throne and rooms. I don't get why the eternal sects are supposed to be powerful but portrayed in a homeless manner.

Also ,the guy playing Zang shan feels like a random insert character who just states the obvious to ML. He's ML's servant but we know nothing about him...
The main eternal sect we've been shown is very lackluster. I'm not sure how any of that works.
I loved bai lu in "story of kunning palace", and ao rui peng is doing really good in this role. I hope to see more of him
