Why did Li Xiaoyao appear in Chinese Paladin 3?

[tangyanzixuan]

He did appear to give Jing Tian the brooch, but the age difference doesn't really make sense. PAL1 took place 50 years after PAL3. Also, Li Xiaoyao's relationship to Jing Tian was "shi gong," or dad's master. Li Sansi was (according to a baidu chart) the disciple of Jing Tian. He (Li Xiaoyao) probably wasn't born yet, or not as old as the TV Series shows it.

It's called time travel and fan service

[xiaoyaoli_lingerli]

in chinese paladin, seeing someone in a place where someone shouldnt be there is possible! you could fix any scene you want with time travel! LOL! thanks to NuWa

That confused me too! Assumed Time Travel but wasn't really sure.

[xiaoyaoli_lingerli]

and why did it have to be Li XiaoYao? o yeah for fan service! LOL

[Opi]

he already time traveled once in cp1 right? it seems logical that he can do it again

[Chibi Jennifer]

It had to be Li Xiaoyao because he was the only character that could time travel (plus, all the other characters were dead already at the end)

[xiaoyaoli_lingerli]

oh i see... but nuwa did said thats the last time she'll help them? i think... nuwa was the one that send li xiaoyao to the past? then how did he get to the past again? i really thought nuwa was the only one who could allow time travel LOL confused,

haha don't worry too much about it, I don't think it was actually thought out properly. They just wanted to add Xiaoyao in there for a bit of fun Whether he appeared or not would have made no difference to the story, except they added in the mystical jade just to add more link between the 2 dramas. Thats why the jade seemed really useless in CP3, despite the constant reference to its "importance", and how the person with the other half is Xue Jian's fated person. Since when did the audience really care if Jing Tian was her fated person or not? People will love them anyway.

For example, even when the whole history and background of Xue Jian and Jing Tian was revealed, as Fei Peng and Xiyao, Xiyao STILL insists to Xue Jian that she must find the other half, because only the person with the other half is her destined "One".. lol, I found that kinda lame...

sorry! i overthink details too much! haha
