Storyline
Luo Feifei (Zhao Lusi) is a doctor from the modern world but time travels back to ancient time. She gets involved with masters of twelve zodiacs in Huang Dao country. Feifei happens to be the thirteenth zodiac, Ophiuchus.
Ophiuchus clan is being avoided and marked as criminals when the former master killed Huang Dao country's King. This is actually a scam set up by people from Orion Land to sow discord among the zodiac masters.
The current King Beitang Yi (Gu Jiacheng) falls in love with Feifei as they go through thick and thin together. On their wedding night, all the citizens in Huang Dao country are being poisoned by Orions. Most of the zodiac masters are killed.
Ophiuchus being the only zodiac to heal others, sacrifice themselves to save the lives of everyone. Feifei then vanishes into thin air and returns back to modern world. In the end, she meets Beitang Yi again.
My View
Being a web-drama, the plot is not too bad. Just that I think the show does not have much budget so some parts feel kind of weird.
Most of the scenes are funnily lame that I have to roll my eyes. Have a good laugh though. This is the second drama where I see Xiao Zhan as the second male lead. The other one is The Wolf 狼殿下.
The Untamed 陈情令 made him so popular and one would think why The Wolf, a much later drama still has him playing as second lead. Reason being The Wolf was filmed much earlier than The Untamed.
Also, as long as Zhao Lusi is in historical drama, it is usually from modern to ancient kind of concept. Like The Romance of Tiger and Rose 传闻中的陈芊芊 and Love Better than Immortality 天雷一部之春花秋月.
