Chapter 1062 Cruel Path of Cultivation

Zack became somber the more he heard about Eva's background, and he was even shocked when he found that Eva didn't even belong to the Sky Heart Plains but on the other side of the world boundary.

"I was just there to infiltrate the Imperial Family by becoming a Sky Heart Imperial School student to help my husband. But I didn't think you would take me as your disciple. Still, I never had any intention of dragging you into this mess.

"Furthermore, there is a reason I couldn't come back after the sky abyss realm. I wanted to clarify things with you before I left, but something happened in the secret realm, and I can't leave this place anymore.

"But I'm grateful for what you did for me, and I would like to apologize for everything you suffered because of me. I'm not worth your affection and care; I'm just a selfish person..." Eva bitterly stated as she lowered her head in guilt.

Zack remained silent for a while before finally speaking with a rueful sigh: "I don't know what to believe or what not to, anymore. Furthermore, I think if someone is to blame for this, it had to be me who let his guard down and was blinded by your astounding talent.

"Sigh... this is a curse of the Skylar Clan. We seem to only care about talent above character. I thought I was different from them, but ultimately, you proved me wrong. I never thought I would suffer this kind of setback in the hands of thieves."

Zack's expression becomes even more complicated as he doesn't know whether to hate Eva, play with his sincere emotions, or just blame himself. He asked, "Can you tell me one thing honestly? With your talent, why are you following this path of a thief? This husband of yours seems to be just as talented as you. Then why are you playing around with people's lives?"

Eva trembled slightly as this question directly stabbed into her heart, but she firmly replied, looking into Zack's eyes, "We are not bad thieves; we never target anyone who doesn't deserve it."

"But you guys don't care about how many innocent people get hurt in the way you, right? Connor and I were both victims of your schemes. Furthermore, I can assume that the thievery incidents throughout the empire were also your doing, right?

"Do you know just how many people the imperial family had detained and executed just because of suspicion?" Zack's eyes narrowed slightly.

Eva was lost for words as she didn't know how to reply and felt even more guilty.

Ace's words were merciless as Zack's eyes trembled and realization dawned on him. Connor was also shocked and couldn't help but look at Zack and guess what this was all about.

Furthermore, he couldn't help but feel somewhat ashamed, as he still had some resentment regarding what Ace did. But now, he also understands the reasoning behind all that. He was just following his path, which suited him best.

Connor knew he wasn't innocent as he had killed many people, and Zack was the same since he reached his position after kicking away many stones in his path. Now they had experienced something like that themselves and suddenly started to feel like victims?

Just as Ace said, this was the world of cultivation. Those with power could do anything, while the weak were all victims. In this place, it's always the survival of the fittest, whether it's a thief or a guard. As long as there were powerful and weak among them, the powerful would always win.

Eva also looked upwards, and the guilt in her heart suddenly vanished, and she felt relief. She said to him through telepathy, "Thank you for standing up for me. I became confused for a moment."

"You don't need to. I can't take this stubborn old man's remarks anymore. You don't need to explain to him who you are; just follow your heart, and I'll always support you. Just never feel guilty about anything. This world is not for the weak," Ace replied gently.

At this moment, Connor spoke wryly, "Principal, we should let it go. After all, they are just kids who are following their own paths. As their teachers, we should support them and forgive their little mishaps."

"Sigh... it seems I'm really becoming senile." Zack spoke with a bitter smile as he looked at Evie, "Thank you for enlightening me; I have no right to play the victim when I've also done terrible things to others.

"In fact, you guys are far more righteous than me since you know your heart and have the guts to admit it. I really show something ugly in front of youngsters.

"Child, forgive me if you feel hurt just now. I was not thinking straight. Since you came clean and admitted everything, I shouldn't have judged you too harshly as your teacher without understanding your circumstances."

Zack lowered his head in front of Eva, "So, you don't need to blame yourself, and I'm also glad that I got to know you and have the privilege of becoming your teacher!"
