"Love of Nirvana" is adapted from the novel of the same name, directed by Zhou Jingtao ("A Journey To Love"), and stars Ren Jialun ("One and Only", "Forever and Ever", "Burning Flames"), Li Landi ( "My Huckleberry Friends"), Xu Zhengxi ("Be my princess") in the leading roles. This wuxia costume romance drama tells a legendary tale of love and loyalty.
Xiao Wuxia (played by Ren Jialun), the son of the Lord of Yueluo City, endures years of hardship and humiliation while undercover in the Liang Kingdom, under the alias Wei Zhao, bearing the reputation of a traitor. In his quest to uncover the truth behind his family’s past, Wei Zhao attempts to abduct the only survivor of the Qi King's case, but his carefully laid plans are disrupted by a young girl, Jiang Ci (played by Li Landi). Taking advantage of the situation, Pei Yan (played by Xu Zhengxi) takes the severely injured Jiang Ci into his residence, hoping to find the mastermind behind the plot.
As Wei Zhao’s tragic background and sense of national duty touch the innocent and lively Jiang Ci, the two gradually see each other’s strengths and develop feelings for one another. In the end, Wei Zhao, Jiang Ci, and Pei Yan put aside their personal grudges and join forces to resist the Liang Emperor, fulfilling their shared dream of protecting Yueluo City and establishing a just and peaceful world.
The drama will begin streaming on iQIYI International (iQ.com) starting September 14.
