Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Arthur returned, and told Blake, “Sir! The bracelet has been thrown at Mabel’s face!”

The next second, he added, “I aimed really well!”

Blake: …good job.

Arthur then saw Lilly coming downstairs, and said to her at once, “Miss Lilly, I’ve thrown the bracelet at

Mabel’s face! I aimed really well!”

Lilly gave him a thumbs-up at once. “Awesome! You’re amazing, Uncle Arthur!”

Arthur was overjoyed.

Lilly ran to Bettany, hugging her. “Grandma, you were so cool!”

Polly piped up along as well, eager to please. “Grandma, you’re! My! Goddess!”

Bettany glanced at Polly. “You should thank that tongue of yours. I’d have cooked you countless times

otherwise!”

Polly flew away at once, landing on Lilly’s shoulder.

“Grandma can’t cook Polly! Polly is Lilly’s favorite baby!”

Bettany shook her head. “Lilly, are you hungry?”

Breaking a bracelet out of thin air must have taken a lot of her energy.

She was going to have to nourish herself with a whole chicken.

No, two chickens. One steamed and one broiled, to see which one Lilly liked more.

There were many members of the Crawford family, anyways. The others could finish what Lilly couldn’t.

Lilly said, “Yes, I’m so so hungry!”

Bettany said, “I’ll go cook something!”

The other Crawfords took a step back. The old lady was a mastermind in the kitchen, capable of

making whatever she wanted.

Lilly had gotten thinner since coming back, which only made Bettany want to cook for her even more.

And what if there was too much food? Well, everyone could eat together, and eat with all their might!

Blake asked, “Lilly, what happened with Mabel just now?”

Lilly snuck a glance at the kitchen, making sure Bettany couldn’t hear them.

Then she told Blake all about meeting King Libra in the Ninth Palace.

Blake only knew that Lilly was missing, and she had gone somewhere that none of them could go to.

He hadn’t expected for it to be so dangerous, though.

Blake subconsciously clenched his fists, furrowing his brows.

He said, “It seems like this traitor’s come to mankind too…”

Wait, traitor?

Blake stared at Lilly in shock, opening and closing his mouth.

Since the bad guy was using the title of ‘traitor’ to wreak havoc, that had to mean that Lilly’s status was

pretty high up.

He’d studied ‘underground culture’ before, and knew that the hierarchy’s most powerful person was

Emperor Prosper. Below Emperor Prosper was Emperor Eastmount, King Earthid, Buddha.

Then there were the Five Ghost Emperors, and then there were the ten Hell Palace Rulers.

There were even more titles and an even more complicated system under the ten palace rulers. Based

on the structure that everyone knew of, the King of Hell was the most respected person in the

underworld—

If there was a traitor, Lilly’s status was definitely extremely high up!

Blake made a guess in his heart, before asking, “Lilly, are you the King of Hell?”

Lilly held up her thumb. “Yep~ You’re so smart, Dad, you got it!”

Blake: …

The uncles: …

Josh, Zachary and Drake: …

Hannah: ?

What were they talking about???

Hannah stared at her Uncle Blake, nothing but confused.

Wasn’t her sister Lilly just a very powerful practitioner?

What did she have to do with the King of Hell?

Was the King of Hell… supposed to be underground?

How could that person be her sister

Anthony only returned to his senses after a long time.

The kid before him was round and chubby, an adorable little thing whose eyes shone like the sun.

His image of the King of Hell was a broad, bushy-browed man with a murderous expression. He found

it near impossible to draw the connection!

Josh walked in a circle around Lilly twice, shocked. “The King of Hell is my sister? My sister is the King

of Hell?!”

Zachary was silent…

He had even said in the past that he was going to look out for his sister.

Only for the kid to become one of the underworld’s most powerful people?

Hannah did not understand, but still piped up. “What do you mean by the King of Hell? The King of Hell

I’ve seen on TV has a black face, and two huge eyebrows like a lumberjack! He’s a man, too.”

What were her uncles going on about? It was truly confusing!

Lilly blinked. “What TV did you see that on?”

Hannah said, “‘Hell Diaries’, of course!”

Everyone: …

A question came to Josh all of a sudden. “So is the King of Hell a boy or a girl in the stories?”

He had just imagined his sister sitting on the King of Hell’s throne, her expression cold and

authoritative.

After Hannah’s interruption, the image of the bulky, bushy-browed King of Hell could not leave his mind.

He glanced at Lilly, trying with all his might to imagine what she would look like with two bushy brows.

To be honest… she looked pretty good! As long as it was Lilly, she would look good either way!

Lilly shook her head. “I dunno either, but I’m a girl!”

Pablo said, “The stories and fairytales don’t always have to match. No one said that the King of Hell

had to be a boy.”

Lilly nodded. “Yeah, who said the King of Hell was a boy!”

Blake had been silent the entire time for a while now.

He finally said, “King Libra’s followed her over here now. He hid in Mabel’s bracelet this time, and

snuck into the Crawford household. I think his goal’s probably to find Lilly’s weak spot.”

Here, Blake exchanged a glance with Anthony.

What was Lilly’s weak spot?

She could bend a steel rod with one hand, and hold up a situation with both.

She could draw amulets to protect her loved ones, and take down malignant spirits with her bare

hands.

She had been covered in bruises and injuries when she had first arrived at the Crawfords, and

everyone thought that she was weak and easily-hurt.

But now with a family that loved her, she seemed to not have any weaknesses at all.

“I guess her only crutch is us,” Blake said. “What she cares about will be her weakness.”

Anthony nodded.

“So the traitor King Libra’s goal is clear. He’s going to attack the people closest to Lilly.”

Edward furrowed his brows in displeasure. “How dare he plot to take another’s status, and Lilly’s too! I’ll

rip him a new one, just watch me!”

Despite saying so, he felt helpless on the inside.

This was past what they were capable of doing .

They could protect Lilly with all their might in this dimension.

But when it came to the underworld, there was nothing they could do.

Edward rubbed his chin— wait. They couldn’t help with affairs in the underworld because they were all

human.

But what if they became part of the underworld?

Edward: Why don’t we all die together?

Lilly: …

Everyone else: …

What went on in his brain for him to come up with something like that?
