Chapter 928
Spoiled (Lily)
Pablo glared at him. âF*ck off!â Blake smirked and went away with his hoe. From a distance, Bettany asked, âBlake! Arenât you getting the hoe? Where are you now?â
Pablo sighed and floated in Lillyâs direction. He was scarred three thousand years ago, but eventually it would go away. He might not be able to kill those people and make them disappear by himself, but Ralph could not handle it, and his soul was torn into fragments on the eighth floor of the underworld.
The hell was not as easy as people thought; on each floor, it was broken down into eighteen more levels. The spirits that could withstand the punishments would only be sent to reincarnate. Everyone he knew could not make it through those floors.
He thought that he would be lonely for another thousand years, but now he knew people and spirits that were dear to his heart. Lilly, Blake, the people from the Crawford family, even the spirits in Lillyâs jar, they were all his family now. He was not alone anymore.

Lilly and Josh were searching around for Jannat in the cemetery. Bettany and Lillyâs uncles were slowly cleaning the grave of the Crawford family while waiting for Lilly and Josh. Josh ran around and muttered, âWhere did she go?â He was tired, so he sat on a rock to rest for a while. Suddenly, an old lady popped out from behind and asked, âLittle boy, why are you sitting on my roof?â Josh jumped and apologized, âIâm so⦠sorry⦠sorryâ¦â The lady waved and replied, âItâs alright, but please donât wear red underwear next time; it canât be used to ward off evil spirits⦠Youâre drawing attention to yourself instead.â Lilly was stunned when she approached them. She did not know that Josh wore red underwear. Josh was extremely embarrassed. Would Lilly believe me if I told her I didnât put it on on purpose?
Lilly comforted him by saying, âItâs okay, Iâm here with you; none of the spirits dare to stare.â Josh felt more secure than ever, and he held her arm. âThere are a lot of ancestors seeing their offspring today, so my spirit compass is completely useless now.â Josh said. In a normal situation, he could have easily pinpointed the whereabouts of the spirit. âLetâs go to her parents!â Lilly suggested. Josh shook his head and said, âI went there just now; she wasnât there.â The old lady spirit suddenly said, âAre the two of you looking for that little spirit? Sheâs headed to the parking lot.â
Lilly was surprised, and she dragged Josh in that direction. The harem spirits were having fun with the others inside the jar. The ghost bride asked, âAre we really not helping Josh look for her?â The weakling spirit answered, âWe shouldnât interfere with his training.â The harem spirit said, âEh? Lilly is asking us to help her search.â The weakling spirit instantly stood up and asked, âSeriously?â Why didnât I hear it?
All the spirits rolled their eyes at him. The passionate spirit commented, âYouâre having double standards!â
Lilly and Josh had already arrived at the parking lot; Pablo was following behind them. All the other children did not follow them because Bettany stopped them because she heard Lilly mutter that the ancestors loved the youngest generations. Hence, Hannah and Zachary were showing off their academic skills to the ancestors back there.

Jannat hid in a black car in the corner of the parking lot. She saw two people staring at her, and the man in a suit was floating not far away when she looked up. She was frightened to see them. Lilly said, âHello!â Josh said, âWe finally found you!â Jannat was grabbing something hard in her hand. Lilly stared at her hand and asked, âWhat are you doing?â This car belonged to Jannatâs parents; they could not enter as it was locked. Josh demanded that she come out. Jannat said, âGet me if you can!â Josh tried to taunt her by saying, âYouâre the resentful spirit; you should come out!â Jannat was making faces at him.
Suddenly, the car door opened. Pablo asked Lilly, âWho taught you this?â She was holding the door handle and replied innocently, âMy Daddy teaches me how to open the lock door with only my bare hands!â She continued to say, âLook! There isnât any sign of intrusion; no one will know what has happened!â
Has Blake been teaching my apprentice stuff like this? Pablo thought.
Uncle Blake taught Lilly these kinds of skills! Why didnât he teach me? Unforgivable! Josh thought.
