Nameless Nie boldly admitted his open relationship with Ling Miao to his parents, arguing no blood ties exist despite her nominal aunt status. His parents vehemently opposed it, prioritizing Nie family reputation and Independent State rules over his happiness. In a surge of fury, Nameless Nie flipped the dinner table and stormed out, declaring his fate beyond anyone's control.

Under the veil of night, Nameless Nie let snowflakes blanket his figure indifferently while he slowly faded into the distance.

Patriarch Nie and Madam Nie gazed at one another in stunned silence.

A few days later.

“Old Ji, why did you call me?” Nameless Nie spoke into the phone.

“I received word that the Arbitration Council is preparing to strike against Ling Miao,” Ji Xiuran replied.

Nameless Nie knitted his brows. “What do you mean?”

“I don’t know the details yet. Stay vigilant and monitor closely.”

Once the call concluded, Nameless Nie sank deep into thought.

Was it on account of that ring?

The ring belonging to Ling Miao represented the pinnacle of authority within the Rose of Death.

Nameless Nie had even forged a lover’s ring almost exactly like it, using hers as the template.

Atop the lofty mountain, a woman clung to her final breaths.

“Isn’t Nameless Nie here?” Ling Miao scanned her surroundings.

The Martial Arts Union’s President had thus deceived her? He dangled Nameless Nie’s life as lure just to draw her into this trap.

As long as he remained safe, all would be well…

“Aunt!”

Worriless Nie felt helpless watching Ling Miao’s plight.

“Here…”

With her remaining strength, Ling Miao passed the ring to the young girl.

“Don’t… let anyone else see it… Help me… keep an eye on your brother…”

Not until several days afterward did Nameless Nie learn of Ling Miao’s dire misfortune.

It struck him like a bolt from the blue.

He drowned himself in alcohol countless times, unable to discern dream from reality.

He had failed to shield his own beloved.

Worse still, he hadn’t stood by her when she needed him most.

How desolate and despairing must she have felt?

The Independent State…

The Arbitration Council…

The Martial Arts Union!

Not one would escape! All must be utterly destroyed!!!

Nameless Nie merged seamlessly with the enveloping darkness. His ebony robes shrouded him completely, rendering his features unrecognizable.

In Tianshui City:

The black-robed figure resembled a vengeful Asura emerging from the depths, his aura of gloom so suffocating it stole the breath from onlookers.

The following day, the sitting president of the Arbitration Council fell to an assassin’s blade, with no clues left at the scene.

On the day after, the leader of the squad tasked with wiping out the Rose of Death met the same fatal end.

Terror suddenly seized every soul in Tianshui City. The Arbitration Council mobilized fully to hunt the perpetrator’s trail, yet their efforts yielded nothing. The killer never resurfaced, as though swallowed by the void.

At the Martial Arts Union headquarters:

The black-robed man stared down at the old man sprawled beneath him. A mere twitch of effort would pulverize the elder’s innards.

Yet, oddly, the black-robed man held back. He merely launched the elder skyward with a kick, then melted back into shadows and vanished.

“From now on, I am a demon stripped of his wings. I roam this world only for vengeance!”

——Nameless Nie

Years afterward:

In the hospital:

“Ling Miao, Worriless got married. Her husband is Lord Asura and is super rich. She actually made us wear cartoon costumes…”

Gentleness filled Nameless Nie’s face as he gazed at Ling Miao on the bed and softly recounted events to her.

“When we get married, let’s also make them wear cartoon costumes.” Nameless Nie gently held Ling Miao’s hand. “But when will you finally wake up…? I’m too lonely…”

All of a sudden, Nameless Nie’s phone rang.

“Captain, get over here quick! There’s a huge gig! I swear the pay is insanely high! Come on, hurry up!” Spray of Flowers urged frantically.

“Okay.”

Nameless Nie ended the call and tenderly patted Ling Miao’s forehead.

After Nameless Nie departed, within the secluded hospital room hidden from view, the girl’s eyelashes quivered ever so slightly.
