Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

The rebel ghost stared at the gigantic weapon in Lilly’s hands.

That was supposed to be ‘just a little’ beating up?

“All you know is violence, and nothing else!” He flared up in anger, a thought seeming to come to him as he said in a pained voice, “Hitting me every time I don’t listen! Is there anything else you even know how to do? If I was as smart as you were, you’d have no right to discipline me!”

The harem spirit and unlucky ghosts stuck their heads out of the spirit jar to eavesdrop, shaking their heads. “There’s no hope for this kid.”

He really was so stubborn. They’d questioned him for days on end, even beating him up. They’d pretty much tried everything… but could not find a way for him to talk in the end.

Lilly gave it some thought. “Alright, I won’t beat you! How about this…”

“I’ve got another disobedient ghost on me, how about you get in there and spend five minutes with it? If you last five minutes, I’ll let you go.”

All he had to do was stay there for five minutes to gain freedom?

That simple?

Malignant spirits were the most powerful spirits in the world. The rebel ghost knew that he was not the most powerful malignant spirit there was, but thought that five minutes would be no problem.

The rebel ghost narrowed his gaze. “Promise?”

Lilly nodded. “Promise!”

The rebel ghost said, “Alright, you’re on!”

Lilly reminded, “Remember to shout for help if you can’t take it!”

The rebel ghost scoffed. What was there to not take!

So what, even if it was a ghost general or ghosts lord he was dealing with?

The rebel ghost was nothing but confident. Lilly picked him up, and threw him into the Palace of the Ruler of Hell.

King Libra was in there, drained from all the cursing and shouting he had been doing. He had gone from violent and aggressive, to resentful and indignant.
