Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chapter 382 Running Away

The unlucky ghost wanted to get his reward from Lilly, so he was the first one to make his move.

However, he bumped into the paper figures instead.

“Damn it!” He was astounded, “How did he summon these figures?”

The papers were stacked up on the ground and rapidly transformed into paper figures.

Harem ghost tore apart one of the paper figures and went straight for the bald man. He snickered, “I

don’t care about his tricks. We got to catch the summoner instead of fighting off his army!”

They were frightening malignant ghosts in their own right, so of course they would not afraid of these

paper figures. The opponent would only pose a threat they were as formidable as Lilly, or else they

could be easily defeated like most resentful ghosts.

Unlucky ghost was screaming as if letting out a battle cry, and the paper figures saw harem ghost going

for the bald man, which prompted them to threw themselves at her. Unlucky ghost wanted to lend a

helping hand to the harem ghost, but he accidentally tore off some patches of her hair.

Harem ghost was speechless.

She lost two seconds of time after getting blocked by these paper figures.

That bald man had already exited the horror house.

Weakling spirit continued to chase after him relentlessly, but there were a lot of children out there in the

playground.

The kids were brimming with energy, so he did not want to bump into them. After dodging the kids for a

while, weakling spirit found that the bald man had disappeared into the crowd.

He could not believe that their target was able to escape them!

These malignahnt ghosts exchanged glances with each other.

“How did we let him escape? This is so embarrassing. We are a letdown as representatives of

malignant ghosts!” Harem ghost was very frustrated and when she saw unlucky ghost were the last to

join the huddle. she snapped at him and slapped him.

Unlucky ghost stared at her incredulously.

Weakling spirit frowned, “This man is so cunning… He must be a frequent visitor to this playground.”

Foolish ghost was still reeling away from their defeat. He cursed loudly at unlucky ghost, “Damn you,

you

trash!”

Unlucky ghost was bewildered at the treatment he was getting.

What was going on? He believed that he was leading the charge just now!

Why was he taking the brunt of their frustration now?

“Wait a minute, we are all in this together, and we gave chase after him together. Why are you guys

directing your anger at me now while we are all responsible for letting him go?”

Unlucky ghost was stunned and he wanted the other ghosts to explain.

However, harem ghost and weakling ghost was still fuming. They were presumably angry at

themselves too, so they were not in the mood to entertain unlucky ghost.

Unlucky ghost sighed and he was also feeling remorseful. “Lilly has so much trust in us, yet we let her

down.”

Harem ghost was vehement as well. “There’s nothing we can do. That bald man knew what he was

doing. Think about it, he must be so highly-strung getting chied around by us, yet he was able to buy

time for himself long enough to make an escape.”

Unlucky ghost asked the dreaded question, “What are we going to say to Lilly?”

Harem ghost and weakling spirit had a sour expression on their faces.

They did not want to put in so much effort in the beginning, but Lilly really saw them as siblings, and

she had so much trust in them to the point that she did not mind letting them out. She was not worried

that they would use this chance to make an escape.

Foolish ghost’s expression changed as he lowered his voice, “My friends, this is a golden opportunity.

Shouldn’t we consider running for our lives now?”

Harem ghost simply gave him a disdainful look, “If you want to run away, do it now. Just don’t regret

your decision.”

Unlucky ghost chuckled, “There’s a reason you’re called the foolish ghost, you know.”

Weakling spirit said in his weak voice, “I won’t ever run. I wonder if Lilly will still give us our lollipop or

not.”

Foolish ghost revealed a disdainful look himself, “Look at your deplorable faces! She is able to win over

you guys with some lollipops. Don’t you have any dignily at all?”

Weakling spirit reminded him, “Think about it, Lilly is no ordinary girl. You won’t get this chance often in

your lifetime.”

Foolish ghost seemed to never figure out the reality of things even if he had been in the jar of souls for

a

while.

Although they could not say for sure what Lilly’s real identity was, they could feel something- They

would enjoy a better life by following Lilly instead of being a stray malignant ghost.

Their future was completely changed…

Weakling ghost did not elaborate. He turned around and left.

Foolish ghost forced himself to follow them, but he was still complaining, “What chance are you talking

about? She’s just a good practitioner, nothing more…”

Lilly was just talented at a young age, and when she grew up, she would probably be a strong warrior

in her own right.

However, no matter how powerful she turned out to be one day she would grow old and she would die.

It they were so afraid of getting hunted down by Lilly, all they needed to do was to hide themselves until

Lilly passed on. By then, they could come out and enjoy themselves again!

They were malignant ghosts. They could live on for decades without any problems….

Foolish ghost could not understand the other ghosts’ concern. At the same time, he was afraid of Lilly’s

purple sledgehammer. It prompted him to go back to her in the end.

After exiting the horror house, Bryson immediately called Anthoy.

He lowered his voice, “Hey, you did instruct the management of the horror house to clear the place,

no?”

He was still in utter disbelief at what he had just experienced.

Anthony’s bassy voice came, “Yeah, I informed the employees to leave.”

This was to protect Lilly so that her abilities would not be discovered by others. It was to prevent others

to start rumor about unexplainable things that they would witness if they were around Lilly.

He even instructed the employees to remove all surveillance camera as well as shield the place from

telecommunication signals.

He even put up an interference force field so that if someone tried to take photos of Lilly secretly, no

image would be produced.

Bryson was standing under the hot sun, yet all he could feel was a creeping chill crawling in his skin.

So there were really no other people in the horror house when they were in there?

“Are you sure all of the employees were gone?” He asked in delusion.

“Yeah.” Anthony’s crisp reply came.

Bryson continued to probe him, “What about props? Are there props that could hang and control things.

in there?”

Anthony was blunt, “No.”

“I’m telling you, I bumped into real ghosts in there,” Bryson slowly walked to an area that was not so

crowded. His face was very gloomy.

Anthony answered noncommittal, “That’s normal.”

Bryson felt something catch in his throat. Was Anthony really think that bumping into ghosts was a

normal occurrence?

He wanted to ask further, but Anthony had an upcoming meeting. He told Bryson to chat when he was

home and hung up.

Bryson held his phone but he was frozen on the spot.

Not far away, Lilly stood in front of the carousel. She was trying to convince Drake, “You won’t be

joining us in this ride, right?”

She then shoved some money into the cashier’s hand. She wanted to make sure, “Then, I won’t be

buying your ticket!”

Drake said nothing.

Before he entered the horror house, he was determined not to ride a carousel. He did not want to be

seen riding a girlish unicorn. He would rather die than doing that.

However, he had a paradigm shift now. He actually thought that a carousel was what boys like him

should enjoy.

Drake coughed lightly to maintain his cool, “You don’t need to buy it for me. I’ll do it myself.”

He took Lilly’s wallet and gave it back to her. Then, he showed his phone, “Four tickets, please.”

Lilly, Hannah and Josh were puzzled.

Didn’t he just said that he won’t join us in this ride?

Drake had a mechanical expression on his face, “I am buying for Uncle Bryson, in fact.”

Bryson would not be interested in this ride.

When Bryson rejected him later, he would have an excuse to use that ticket on his behalf. That was his

plan.

Drake was stubborn like that.

Lilly said, “I see…” Then, she saw Bryson walking toward them, seemingly finished with his phone call.

She invited him excitedly, “Uncle Bryson, let’s ride the carousel! Drake bought us some tickets!”

Bryson resumed his gentle persona once again, “Alrigh

He had just gone through an unbelievable experience just now. He could use some rides to catch a

break…

Uncle Bryson carried Lilly to the mightiest-looking horse while Josh and Hannah took to the horses on

both sides of her horse.

As the music began to play, Lilly was soon laughing and giggling. Bryson felt some peace finally, and

he could not help but smile while watching them. Josh and Hannah was having the time of their lives as

well.

Drake, who was still standing beside the ride, stared at them blankly.

It turned out that his plan had failed. Why was he not the one riding on one of the unicorns right now?
