Spoiled by Eight Uncles Summary pdf

Edward and Jean were in a state of shock, their jaws agape.

They stared at Lilly’s bold provoking, listening to her ask for a fight.

Then she chanted some prayers, and attacked using a fart… and it worked!

Before they could return to their senses, she had thrown out the jar of souls and shouted “Come on!”…

They couldn’t see much more after that. After all, the water spirits had been drawn out already.

The harem spirit herself was quite confused too.

She had gone into this like any other battle, and was holding down a resentful spirit when the one next to it fell to her knees and began begging for forgiveness for her mother. What was going on?

Lilly clapped her hands, impressed. “You’re amazing, Auntie Harem!”

The harem spirit blinked. “Who’s this…”

The younger spirit continued to kneel, sobbing as she begged. “Mother and I are sorry, we won’t do anything bad anymore. Please let us go, please…”

Lilly shook her head. “Do you know how many lives you’ve taken?”

The young spirit’s eyes flickered. “Just, just seven or eight…”

Lilly frowned. The word ‘just’ for seven or eight lives was hardly appropriate

The resentful spirit being held down by the harem spirit spoke up in a hoarse whisper, “Roxie, don’t beg her…”

“It’s our bad luck that we were caught this time…”

The spirit glowered at Lilly, furious that she had lost.

She had only needed one more innocent soul… just one more!

And she would become a malignant spirit, leaving this river forever.

She had drowned tens of thousands of times in this river! It was too much to bear, and she began to usurp other spirits so she could leave sooner.

Only for everything to fall apart.
