Just as Ace landed on the ship with Commander Frugal, a tall green-winged devil wearing imposing black armor with Golden Lion Kingdom's insignia walked over, followed by a few other people from different races. Still, they were standing behind him with a hint of respect, which meant this devil's status was quite high.
The Sky Heart Plains were humongous. Even the ten continents together were only a small island in comparison.
In the Sky Heart Plains, all kinds of races exist, and as long as someone has talent and power, they can join the ranks of the Mortal Sky Heart Empire. But they had to climb the eight kingdoms' ranks first because they were all the faces of the empire.
In fact, the more talent they sent, the more resources they would get from the empire.
Frugal looked at the devil and introduced, "Captain Abner, this is an Independent Cultivator... what is your name again?" He asked Ace, since he didn't get the chance to inquire about his name.
Ace replied smilingly as he politely greeted everyone, "White. It's nice to meet Captain Abner and everyone. Sorry to cause trouble."This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
The moment Abner and others heard he was just an Independent Cultivator, disdain appeared in their eyes, as they clearly looked down on Independent Cultivators because they were talentless and couldn't join any power.
"Alright, I'm about to report back to higher-ups. This was a false alarm. You can prepare a room for Mr. White. He'll be returning with us until we confirm his identity." Frugal stated before he left.
The disturbance in the world boundary has caused quite an alarm, so Frugal had to report back quickly. If Ace was really an Independent Cultivator, this was nothing but a false alarm.
After Frugal left, Abner looked at Ace, smiled with a hint of contempt, and said, "What were you thinking going in the world boundary? Don't tell me you were searching for treasure?"
The others snickered hearing this, as they all knew how the minds of Independent Cultivators work. They went to dangerous places to search for treasures and opportunities, and most of them died. Everyone called them ignorant fools.
Nonetheless, Abner's position was very special, and no one dared to offend Even Riana was helpless since it would directly affect her kingdom, and she didn't want that despite being so powerful.
Riana looked at Ace, who was extremely handsome, yet his face was riddled with scars, and his long white hair flattered in the wind like white flame. A hint of surprise flashed past her eyes since she suddenly felt strange when she looked at him.
But she didn't say anything about it and coldly said, "Whatever the case is, you guys are leaving your posts, which is akin to slacking off on work, and if you don't want punishment, then hurry back."
Everyone quickly scattered as they didn't dare to treat her words as empty threats because they knew she would really do it. She was famous for her battle skills and upright character, and anyone who dared to break the law would be punished without exception.
Only Abner and Ace remained. The former was not afraid, while the latter didn't have to do anything, as he wasn't one of them.
"What are you still doing here?" She coldly looked at Abner. Although she couldn't do anything to him, lately, he was too impudent, and now she was reaching her limit of patience.
Abner replied without any hint of fear, "Your Highness, please don't take offense; the commander ordered me to escort Mr. White to his room."
"You don't need to anymore. I have some questions for him, and I'll do it. Now go before I gouge your eyes." Killing intent flashed past her eyes, making Abner's expression sink.
"Hmph!" But he didn't dare to try to go too far and test her bottom line and quickly left with clear displeasure before giving Ace a warning glare.
Ace was quite surprised seeing this and smiled wryly as he didn't have anything to do with this, but it seemed he had just earned some resentment from Abner. Nonetheless, he had already gotten his memories while he was busy jeering at him, and he had a pretty good idea of what was going on.
"You follow me." Riana coldly commands while looking at Ace.
