Thanks to Taoist Devotee and Spray of Flowers acting as spies, all of Zhao Yechao's plans collapsed within three days and he was killed with a punch from Nameless Nie.

"G.o.d Killing Mercenaries" was officially established.

…

Every other year, Nameless Nie would make a two-month trip to the Independent State. Two months later, he'd return to that little town and endure Auntie Ling's boundless nagging and occasional beating.

Many years later, as Nameless Nie looked at this incredibly familiar town, an indescribable tenderness surfaced in his eyes.

The Ferris Wheel had been torn down and the mansion looked much older. However, those two people didn't change much in his memories.

"Old Ling, open the door!"

Nameless Nie shouted.

Auntie Ling instantly opened the door.

"Eh, my little ancestor, when did you come back?"

Auntie Ling was still as beautiful as the day they first met. It was as if time hadn't left any marks on her face.

"I just came back. I wanted to surprise you." Nameless Nie strode into the living room with a traveling bag on his back.

"Good job, you little brat. You took two years to come back and you didn't even call us!" Auntie Ling quickly pulled out some fruits.

"Old Ling, what delicious food are you barbecuing?" Nameless Nie sniffed the air.

"You came back at a good time. Ling Miao's boyfriend also came over today and brought a lot of game," Auntie Ling answered happily.

The smile on Nameless Nie's face froze instantly and disappeared.

"Boyfriend… is that so? When did that happen?" Nameless Nie was absent-minded.

"They had a matchmaking session a few days ago," Auntie Ling said.

"Matchmaking?" Nameless Nie furrowed his brows. "Old Ling, that's too careless! They don't know each other. Do you know who the other person is, what their character is like, what their family background is? Even if you wanted to find someone, you should find someone whose background you know well and everyone is familiar with, right?"

"What nonsense are you saying? You don't need to worry about your aunt's business. I've watched over that boy for a very long time. If he wasn't suitable, I definitely wouldn't have arranged for him and your aunt to be together." Auntie Ling sliced an apple for Nameless Nie. "Eat it. When it's dinner time, I'll cook a few dishes for you."

When Auntie Ling went to the kitchen, Nameless Nie set down the apple and stood up immediately, heading toward the study.

The study door was shut fully, a man's laughter occasionally drifting out.

For some reason, an inexplicable, insuppressible fury surged inside of Nameless Nie.

*Bam!*

Nameless Nie kicked open the door.

Inside the study, the girl's gaze landed on the entering Nameless Nie. The man wore gla.s.ses and had a chubby physique. He jolted in fright from Nameless Nie's actions.

"Who are you?!" The man was displeased as he looked at Nameless Nie.

Nameless Nie ignored the man and stopped next to Ling Miao. "Who's he?"

"Boyfriend," Ling Miao replied.

"Boyfriend? How come I didn't know?" Nameless Nie questioned apathetically.

"Ling Miao, he is…?" the man asked with a frown.

"My nephew," Ling Miao answered.

"Nephew…" The man was startled. He never expected this handsome and fit youth to actually be Ling Miao's nephew. Moreover, wasn't this nephew similar in age to Ling Miao?

"Heh… So you're her nephew. Then there might be some misunderstanding," the man said with a clap on Nameless Nie's shoulder and a smile that he thought was cordial.

However, for some reason, when the man's hand touched Nameless Nie's shoulder, his whole body shuddered and he staggered backward clumsily.
