The exciting and dramatic ride of Zhang Xiaofan’s journey in the cultivation world had been a rough experience with so many ups and downs, and that’s what we witnessed in the first season of the Jade Dynasty Season 1 which ended on January 17. The good thing is, that Jade Dynasty Season 2 has been announced already. After 2 years of waiting, Jade Dynasty Season 2 is finally slated for release on March 30, 2024.
The season finale might have left some viewers scratching their heads, but it ultimately stayed true to the donghua’s core theme: exploring the complexities of good and evil. The narrative challenges our perceptions by showcasing various viewpoints, blurring the lines between hero and villain. Ultimately, it reveals a world where characters are driven by their own motivations, not always fitting neatly into categories of good or evil.
However, I must say that Jade Dynasty Episode 26 is only the beginning of something even greater and a quest for something bigger for Zhang Xiaofan. Now, we are excited about what he’ll do next after Biyao sacrifices herself to save him, will he choose a different path of cultivation? So many questions just keep on rushing down our heads and that’s what we should look forward to in the 2nd season of the donghua.
