She eagerly went online and only after seeing the comments did she realize Bing Yan was cross-dressing as a man! Sadly, she would never reveal her true gender to the world in this lifetime, and no one would ever know.
So, that's how it is.
Having watched the earlier part, they almost thought it was a gay romance.
The main storyline of this drama is Bing Yan's disputes and feuds in the world of martial arts. This love story between a Buddha and a demon is just a side plot, so Bing Yan naturally becomes the male lead of the play.
The trailer shows several romantic moments between Xue Chujian and the monk. He poured all his love for Red Lotus into Xue Chujian, ultimately descending into the demon's way to achieve enlightenment.
As they left hand-in-hand, the monk murmured: "It feels like I've been dreaming this life, and the heroines in the dreams are not you. But if it's not you, who could it be?"
Such doubts were soon swept away by the wind.
