To be honest, Zhao Hai didn't like this feeling, because it made him feel very powerless. He felt like he was a chess piece being manipulated by someone. He didn't like this feeling, the feeling of not being able to control his own fate. However, he knew that he had no way to change this situation. His current strength was not enough to let him jump out of the chessboard. He could only be a chess piece, and he had to be a good chess piece. Otherwise, he might be abandoned.
Zhao Hai knew very well that from the moment he appeared in this world, he had been branded. He was a member of the self-cultivation world and an enemy of the Shadow Realm. Although he could surrender to the Shadow Realm, Zhao Hai could not do it. He would rather stay in the self-cultivation world because he knew very well that if he surrendered to the Shadow Realm, he would always be regarded as a traitor on the other side of the Shadow Realm. He would not end well.
