"Grandpa, what in the world happened … Didn't … didn't Worriless Nie kill you?!"
Si Xia looked at the elderly man who suddenly appeared in front of him in disbelief.
"Killed by Worriless …?"
As soon as Si Xia finished speaking, the expressions of the Nie family's Patriarch and Madam changed. How could this be? Father had clearly been missing for a long time. How could someone else say that Wuyou killed him …?
"Dad, what in the world happened?!" Madam Nie was frantic.
When he heard this, the old man glanced at the beautiful Iceberg Man behind him and said, "Jing Mu, speak."
Iceberg Man: "?"
Seeing this, the elder looked a little awkward, "Forget it, let me do it."
"Back then, Worriless and I had a dispute, so we had to resolve it through a competition. If Worriless won, I would listen to her, and if she won, she would listen to me." The elderly man gathered his thoughts and continued, "However, during my competition with Worriless, due to various reasons, Worriless accidentally injured me."
At this point, the old man's gaze inadvertently landed on Nameless Nie.
"After I was injured, a man wearing a black robe barged in and wanted to take my life. However, he held back and only heavily injured me." The elderly man sighed.
"Dad, who did it?!" Madam Nie hastily asked.
Ye Wanwan silently turned to Nameless Nie. That black-robed man … was probably her brother, right …?
However, she still couldn't bear to kill him in the end.
"It was me."
Nameless Nie didn't give the elderly man a chance to speak before saying, "It was me."
"What?!"
Madam Nie and Patriarch Nie were taken aback and looked at Nameless Nie in astonishment.
"It wasn't Worriless Nie; it was Nameless Nie … How could it be …?"
Si Xia frowned deeply in disbelief.
Back then, Grandpa's whereabouts were unknown, and a large amount of blood and signs of a fight were left at the scene. After investigating the surveillance, they discovered Grandpa's body was pierced by a dagger by Worriless Nie …
After that, Si Xia investigated Ye Wanwan's whereabouts and returned to China, only to discover that Ye Wanwan chose to mask her memories because she couldn't bear the torture of certain memories.
Hence, Si Xia always thought it was Ye Wanwan who killed Grandpa. He never expected the murderer to be Nameless Nie!
"How could you … attack your grandfather so viciously?!" Madam Nie looked at Nameless Nie with a pained expression.
"He caused Ling Miao's death," Nameless Nie said after a moment of silence.
But even so, Nameless Nie still didn't kill his grandfather. He only heavily injured him and left.
"John Doe, there's nothing I can do." The elderly man looked at Nameless Nie and closed his eyes. He solemnly said, "The Arbitration Council issued an absolute order. If I didn't comply, the consequences would be dire. Moreover, I didn't kill Ling Miao. I brought her back to the Guild and have been treating her."
Back then, Grandpa didn't have the courage to resist the Arbitration Council. It wasn't until Ye Wanwan inherited Ling Miao's ring and the Arbitration Council planned to attack Ye Wanwan that Grandpa made up his mind to overthrow the Arbitration Council, seal off the Twelve Independent States, and establish himself as king.
…
"I know. You rescued Ling Miao," Nameless Nie said.
He had heard Si Xia mention it just now.
"Then why did you disappear, Grandpa? Also … since you didn't die, why haven't you appeared?!" Si Xia hastily asked the elderly man.
