L.O.R.D. Critical World (2019)
LORD Critical World cdrama Joe Cheng
We can finally put names and faces to the “back view” teaser posters released last year as the live-action drama version of the movie L.O.R.D. Legend of Ravaging Dynasties 爵迹 for the small screen is almost ready for viewer consumption. 


The iQIYI drama L.O.R.D. Critical World 爵迹临界天下 is of course based on the same Guo Jingming 郭敬明 novelNot sure how this adaptation will differ from the movie, so y’all will just have to wait and see. The 48 episode series chronicles the adventures of a young man and his mentor to protect the nation of Xuan Zang.

LORD Critical World cdrama Zhang Mingen
Qi Ling is an ordinary man from a small village who by chance becomes a disciple of Yin Chen, one of the seven spiritual lord protectors of Xuan Zang. As Qi Ling delves deeper into the world of magic, he discovers that all is not well, with the nation seething in turmoil underneath its deceivingly peaceful surface. All signs indicate that all hell is about to break loose, and so under the tutelage of his mentor Yin Chen and the help of the other dukes and disciples, Qi Ling begins his extraordinary journey.

Interested? Let’s now take a look at the cast who’ll be bringing the novel to life  –

The good looking silver haired fox is Joe Cheng who aptly plays Yin Chen (Silver), the duke to the 7th degree. Heh, who would have thought he’d be able to rock long gray/silvery hair a la Legolas? I really think the look suits him though ! Such a huge upgrade from his floppy bang(ed) days in It Started With A Kiss!
