Luo Xiao's brows were furrowed and he felt sowhat annoyed. Although he had expected that there would be so sort of reactions after being found by Qin Zhaolu, he had not expected it to be this grueso.
"What are your thoughts?"
While he was new to this whole infighting, he knew that Jiang Yao had grown up in one of the most complex families on this continent. This prince had to struggle for survival from the very beginning of his life, so he had to have so thoughts and ideas of how to solve their current predicant.
"I have a solution, but I am actually not willing to use it." Jiang Yao lowered his eyes as he tried to hide the unwillingness within.
While he was the Seventh Demon Prince of the Demon Empire here, he was truly nothing to those from the realms above. He had never before felt this helpless and in need of strength, just as he never before had known why he had to pursue the strongest ranks.
Only now was he aware that to live an unfettered life, one needed to be above the others. To protect those that he held dear, he needed enough abilities.
"Jiang Yi suggested that we fake your death. You will leave Cloudsoar City and roam the continent on your own while trying to raise your ranks and beco stronger, until the point where you can ascend to the realms above.
"At the sa ti, I will have to ascend already. If I were to travel alongside you, the enemies will guess that you are not actually dead, but hiding sowhere, and spare no effort to find you."
Jiang Yao's eyes flashed with heartache and sadness as he thought of the need to seperate.
"The only good thing is that the borders between our continent and the realms above are really not that strict. As long as you have enough strength you can travel across them easily, and I should be able to visit at least twice a year."
Jiang Yao was able to accept the temporary separation only because he knew that he could visit during Luo Xiao's journey to progress.
"The excuse of entering the upper realm is that I want to gain strength, so that I will never lose anyone dear to again. As for why I return to my ho twice a year, that is, naturally, because I need to visit your tomb to offer incense and greet you."
Luo Xiao's lips twitched as he looked at Jiang Yao's complicated gaze. It was clear that he was sowhat relieved for having an excuse to return here so that he could visit him, but the excuse was to offer incense and visiting his tomb, which was sowhat depressing and unlucky.
"This is the best solution."
In fact, Luo Xiao knew that to increase his strength, he might have to leave Jiang Yao at so point. Although his increase in strength during the ti they had been together was great, and he had beco more accustod to fighting and killing, he also knew that he would never die.
Jiang Yao had promised not to step in unless he was close to death, but Luo Xiao knew that the reason he could let go of himself and battle easily was exactly because he had this strong expert protecting him. No matter how bad it went, he would never die.
Without Jiang Yao, he would finally manage to reach his limits and try to push the further away. He would be forced to survive on his own and things would be much less convenient.
However, he was not willing to leave his lover at all. Jiang Yao had brought him to see the vast world and given his bland world colors. How could he bear to leave this wonderful man?
However, now that Jiang Yao ca with this solution to their current problem, and he could not see a problem at all. While he would be very unwilling if they would not see each other for many years to co, Jiang Yao had promised to return twice a year. This was already very good, and he was able to let go of his worries completely.
"Heartless young man."
Jiang Yao could see that Luo Xiao was not against this solution at all, and even the eyes turned sowhat bright with satisfaction. Such look made him feel a little helpless as he could not help but wonder why he fell for such a ruthless young man.
"Honestly, you should have left this continent long ago. Your strength is enough to ascend to the realms above, but you never did so before. Now, with the excuse of my death, you can enter the upper realms with a good reason and also get stronger. Don't you want to be my strongest backer when I also reach the upper realm and have to confront my family?"
Luo Xiao knew exactly what Jiang Yao valued, and by asking this question, the Seventh Demon Prince suddenly found that his ascent to the realms above was very useful. He could indeed gather a special force and start to prepare for Luo Xiao's arrival.
"It might take more than one hundred years for you to reach the level where you can ascend to the realms above. Are you able to accept this? During these one hundred years, we can only et twice a year. It might beco unbearable in the long run."
Jiang Yao looked worriedly at the young man in front of him. Although Luo Xiao seed mature, he was still young. He might think that he was determined, but who knew what the future might bring?
Luo Xiao smiled slightly as he shook his head.
"We will have to wait and see.. If I cannot handle it, you can always return here to be by my side again. By then, they should have left alone, and you will also be stronger and able to protect , right?"
