Upon hearing Zhao Yi's words, Samuel could not accept that Zhao Yi intended to follow him. After all, he was a Seven-Lamp Realm expert. Many people knew that. It would be difficult for Samuel to keep a low profile if Zhao Yi wanted to stay by his side.
"You cannot stay by my side." Samuel said.
"Why?" Zhao Yi asked in confusion.
"Do you know why I'm wearing a mask?" Samuel asked.
This question was easy to explain. Zhao Yi was not a fool. Wasn't the reason why he masked himself is to hide himself?
"You don't want others to know that you're very powerful," Zhao Yi said.
Samuel nodded and continued, "Since you know, you don't need me to tell you why you can't stay by my side, do you?" "But it wasn't easy for me to meet my fellow villagers. Can't we investigate the Xuanyuan World together?" Zhao Yi said resentfully. He wanted to stay by Samuel’s side. Other than taking care of each other, he also harbored other selfish motives.
First, he hoped that Samuel could help him break through the realm. Second, if Samuel could find a way to go back to Earth, he would be able to leave here.
For twenty full years, Zhao Yi had found nothing. He did not feel that he had the ability to find a way back to Earth. Hence, the only person he could rely on in this matter was Samuel.
"Don't worry. If I find a way to leave the Xuanyuan World, I will definitely take you with me." Samuel guesses what Zhao Yi was thinking and said directly.
"But if I don’t follow you, where can I go? I’ve been very confused for twenty years. I don't have any goals," Zhao Yi said eagerly. He didn’t want to be a walking dead. He wanted to live a more meaningful life. Following Samuel was his only choice.
"You can go for your own way of breaking the realm. If you want to leave the Royal Court, the only way is to make yourself stronger. If the passage out of the Xuanyuan World is not in the Royal Court, and you have no strength to leave the Royal Court, what should you do?" Samuel said.
This sentence made Zhao Yi’s expression become serious. If this was the case, even if he knew the passage away from the Xuanyuan World, he would not be able to return to Earth without the strength to leave the Royal Court.
After thinking about it seriously, Zhao Yi said, "How are you going to find me in the future?"
"Alas." Samuel sighed and said, "There is no mobile phone in this world. It's really troublesome to contact each other."
Zhao Yi smiled helplessly. Speaking of the phone, he had almost forgotten about the existence of it. After living in the Royal Court for 20 years, he had almost forgotten about the modern world on earth.
"That's right. It would be much more convenient if we have a cell phone," Zhao Yi said.
Samuel thought for a while and said, "One year later, we will meet at Wind Spirit Stage. At that time, I don’t need to hide my identity anymore."
Zhao Yi nodded and said, "See you a year later. I hope I can break the realm successfully at that time."
Samuel's words rekindled hope in Zhao Yi, and also made him more eager to break through the realm. Being able to return to Earth was a great spiritual pillar for Zhao Yi. Moreover, Samuel was now in the last three realms, which was even more stimulating for Zhao Yi.
In the past, he wanted to break through the realm but he was afraid of death. Now, however, Zhao Yi was able to pay a greater price for it. This also allowed him to have a better chance of breaking through the realm.
Of course, the risk was uncontrollable.
Samuel was not sure whether he would be able to see Zhao Yi again.
However, since he could not control it, Samuel would not think too much about it. Even if they were both Earth residents, Samuel would consider his own situation first and then consider Zhao Yi. But now, Samuel did not have the energy to care about Zhao Yi.
