"Grandpa , the Wu Ghost Family is planning to send forces against the . We need to return immediately to defend it!" looked towards Ye Mo and said. Ye Mo had been in the Underworld Domain for so long; the information he had was likely far more comprehensive than Nie Li's.

Ye Mo's expression darkened slightly, and he let out a cold snort. "That traitor ! He leaked news of the City of Radiance to the Wu Ghost Family, bringing their attention upon us. With our City's current strength, we are no match for the Wu Ghost Family. Our only option is to stall them for as long as possible, then figure out a countermeasure."

Had he known beforehand that Ye Han harbored treacherous intentions, Ye Mo would have killed him with his own hands long ago!

"How long have you been in the Underworld Domain, Grandpa Ye Mo?" Nie Li asked.

"I discovered this Underworld Domain five years ago..." Ye Mo was still somewhat unsure of Nie Li's true identity, so he didn't elaborate further.

So Ye Mo had found the Underworld Domain this long ago. No wonder he was often absent from the City of Radiance. With Ye Mo's capabilities, it was impossible that he had done nothing in those five years. He likely already had some arrangements in place.

Within the City of Radiance, Ye Mo was the spiritual pillar for everyone. From the moment Nie Li had been old enough to understand, he had heard tales of Ye Mo's exploits. A commoner who rose to power solely through his own talent and insight, eventually marrying the City Lord's daughter and assuming the position of City Lord himself, becoming the pinnacle existence of the City of Radiance. Ye Mo could indeed be called a legendary figure.

As for the matter of marrying the City Lord's daughter, Nie Li felt that he and Grandpa Ye Mo might have some interesting points to discuss.

"Kid Nie Li, which family do you belong to?" Ye Mo finally couldn't help asking.

"The Tian Hen Family," Nie Li replied with a smile.

Ye Mo remembered; the Tian Hen Family ranked at the very bottom among the noble families. He hadn't expected them to produce a genius like Nie Li, which truly made him view the youth with new respect. Although Nie Li hailed from the Tian Hen Family, the fact that he had established cooperation with the Jade Seal Family and now commanded three Legendary-level subordinates like gave him more than enough standing to speak with the Wind Snow Family.

"Previously, Ye Han plotted against my father-in-law, poisoning him with Dragon Tongue Grass. Fortunately, I happened to have an antidote. I just never expected that after defecting from the City of Radiance, Ye Han would sell our secrets to the Wu Ghost Family. His crime is truly unforgivable." A trace of killing intent surfaced in Nie Li's eyes. "Later, the Sacred Family allied with the in rebellion. Fortunately, Father-in-law executed , and only a few managed to flee, gravely injured."

Ye Mo's brow furrowed. During his absence, so many things had happened in the City of Radiance.

"That bastard Ye Han was spoiled rotten by ! Ye Zong misjudged his character and was even going to hand over the City Lord position to such a person! His failure to execute Ye Han in time has landed the City in this perilous situation—that is all his fault! Just wait till I get back and deal with him!" Ye Mo snorted. If not for Nie Li, Dragon Tongue Grass would certainly have killed Ye Zong. Even Ye Mo himself wouldn't have known how to cure its poison. Nie Li had saved Ye Zong, so it was no wonder he had promised his daughter Yun'er to him.

The people of the Wind Snow Family had always repaid kindness and kept their promises. Since Ye Zong had already betrothed Yun'er to Nie Li, Ye Mo had accepted this union in his heart.

The group soared through the air towards the City of Radiance, with Nie Li and Ye Mo leading the way, putting some distance between themselves and the others like Luo Ming.

"Grandpa Ye Mo, you comprehend the Wind Snow Law Power?" Nie Li looked at Ye Mo and asked. He had previously sensed the aura of the Wind Snow Law from Ye Mo's body.

"That's right. But I wouldn't call it comprehension. I can only mobilize a sliver of it. I am still far from the Sub-God level." Ye Mo shook his head.

"I also sensed two other auras from you, Grandpa Ye Mo. They are extremely powerful. If you could comprehend the Law Power, your strength should increase several-fold," Nie Li said with a smile.

A flash of surprise crossed Ye Mo's eyes. He hadn't expected Nie Li's perception to be so keen. Not only had the boy sensed his Law Power, but he had also detected the other two auras. A slightly strange expression appeared on his face. Nie Li was merely a fourteen-year-old child—could he possibly be a Spirit Dwelling powerhouse like the Monster Lord?

Ye Mo immediately scrutinized Nie Li, but he couldn't sense the slightest hint of Spirit Dwelling energy from the youth.

Ye Mo's gaze made Nie Li feel a little self-conscious. He hurried to explain, "Grandpa Ye Mo, I am not a Spirit Dwelling user. People who use Spirit Dwelling often have pale complexions, their blood constantly burning and depleting, with Soul Power overflowing from their bodies. I have none of those symptoms."
