Outside the Imperial City's towering southern gate was a large line of caravans waiting to enter the Imperial City since it was fully locked, and only those famous merchants could enter after going through a full inspection.

However, at this moment, no one noticed that while the imperial guards were busy checking the carriage in front, someone had already snuck past them like an invisible ghost, and the formation stopping anyone from entering was completely useless against him.

After passing through the gates and a group of guards, he was finally inside the imperial city, this intruder was naturally Ace who had taken the long path into the imperial city.

Despite the imperial family's preparation against him, he was able to enter their domain without much effort, and now he was a step closer to his mission.

However, Ace didn't go towards the Imperial Palace directly and after sensing something, he carefully made his way toward a particular direction.

The imperial city was quite large and lavish as there were numerous influential people living there, and most of them were the empire's nobles. They had their own territories and businesses. No commoner can enter, and only the rich exist in this place.

However, because of the curfew, the city streets were somewhat barren, and everyone was still waiting for the imperial palace to release this curfew so everything could go back to normal.

Yet, even after three months, there was no news from the palace, and the public was restless as this affected many businesses and the usual lives of the nobles.

But everyone knows that this curfew wasn't without reason as news of thieveries all over the empires reached theme every now and then, so they knew the threat was real. Especially after what happened to the Grand Duke's treasury, the Evil Venerable Angel was the main reason for the fear in nobles' hearts.

However, this thief was still not apprehended, and after its debut over two and half months ago, there was no clue or any movement from it. Everyone thought that the thief had already fled the city, but no one dared to let their guard down.After traveling for a few hours, Ace reached the center of the city, and here, he found himself looking at towering walls, and no one was in the vicinity as if this place was a forbidden zone.

Furthermore, Ace could sense that those walls were protected by a powerful formation, not any weaker than the formation at the city gates, if not stronger.

'Isn't that the walls of the Sky Heart Imperial School?' Ace was astounded as he had already stolen a person's memories on his way here, so he knew the structure of this place as well as the powers residing in this place.

lightsΝοvel The Sky Heart Imperial School was equally famous as the Imperial Palace and there seemed to a lot of going on in the Sky Heart Imperial School in these past two months, a terrifying genius has appeared alarming even the imperial family.

'What is she planning?' Ace wondered as he looked at the wall of the Sky Heart Imperial School.

Since this place was equally famous as the imperial palace and also a very important power under the imperial clan, Ace knew this place should be well guarded, so infiltrating it required guts.

Smiling wryly, Ace didn't stop and flew towards the walls of the Sky Heart Imperial School. If there was anyone else, they might think he was courting death, but this protective formation can't stop his advance.

The other side of the wall were nothing a smokescreen to trapped any daring intruders from trespassing and it also have a powerful illusion effect on soul. Using twilight traverse, Ace passed through this hurdle.lightsnovel

The first thing that he noticed was dense Qi, and a clear field appeared in front of him. A few hundred meters away from him were imposing ancient structures and there were many people wearing navy blue robes walking together in the outer hallways, all of them were the students of the Sky Heart Imperial School and their cultivation base were around Qi soul realm minimum.

The Sky Heart Imperial School was divided into Royal and Imperial Schools. The former was for ordinary geniuses, while the latter was for the genius among geniuses, and mostly, the members of the Skylar clan study there.

Ace could sense his connection with Cyrus and Eva, and they were still quite deep into the Sky Heart Imperial School. So, he sneakily approached one of the students, who was a human, and tailed him until he was completely alone.magicThe moment he got the chance, he directly struck him, rendering him unconscious, and quickly disguised himself while taking all of his memories. His human belonged to the imperial duke clan of the empire, and he was one of the duke's many children, named Leroy, and very talented since he was able to enroll in the Sky Heart Imperial School's royal school.

Although he was a genius, there were thousands like him in the Sky Heart Imperial School. From his memories, Ace found more details about the Sky Heart Imperial School as well as the famous genius Evie Gray Shadow, who had broken an impossible record.

'Don't tell me it's her?' Ace mused since the timing couldn't be any weirder, and he knew what Eva was capable of. He didn't contact her since he wanted to give her a surprise, and he was also afraid that it might be her pride if she showed too much consideration.

Furthermore, he also discovered that Evie was the principal disciple. She had been in the imperial palace over two months ago, where the Mortal Emperor bestowed her the title of Devil Marquis and another news that provoked his killing.

According to Leroy's information a duke son, in that gathering, the Emperor also bestowed her imperial marriage with the Second Prince and her father the Grand Duke also agreed.

However, Principal Zack suddenly makes an appearance and directly rejects the marriage on Evie's behalf. Evie also seems to agree with this arrangement, which causes a huge stir among the imperial clan.

Yet, shockingly, the Mortal Emperor backed down and decided to let the marriage go for now, which also showed just how high Principal Zack's status was. He directly took Evie from the imperial gathering, and since then, she has been in seclusion in the Principal Tower and no one can meet her.

But surprisingly, the Second Prince suddenly comes back to the school and has been living there since then. He has also been paying her a visit every week since the gathering, and despite being rejected at the door, he never showed any hint of retreat and always came back.

This caused huge commotion among the students and teachers alike, and now it has become a hot topic among the youth. They admired the Second Prince's persistence and his sincere affection, and many were cheering for him.

Principal Zack also became a demon in many people's view who was stopping two lovers from getting together. It has become some kind of love story.

However, what caused even more sensation was the Crown Prince also came back to the Sky Heart Imperial School to compete in his studies, and with him was the further empress and his fiancé, the Golden Lion Kingdom's Princess Riana, who was considered the most talented genius of the empire before Evie appeared.

All in all, the Sky Heart Imperial School was quite lively at this moment, especially the imperial school with all this drama going on.

Still, he had to admit, she really performed out of his expectations. But it was unclear if Eva was really Evie, only after finding her he could confirm it.

After getting the gist of the situation, Ace hurried toward the imperial school!
