Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Startled, King Libra looked up and discovered that the Buddha statue he had taken refuge in had been

smashed, leaving a large hole. A brilliant golden light streamed in, dazzling his eyes.

Instinctively, King Libra raised his hand to shield his eyes, but before he could react, he was struck on

the head by a solid object. Grimacing in pain, he knelt down and saw a shiny golden bun lying at his

feet.

“Who did this?” King Libra seethed with anger.

A small figure appeared at the entrance of the brightly lit hole, poking her head out and giggling. In one

moment, her expression was incredibly gentle and cute, her eyes forming charming crescents. But in

the next moment, her face hardened, and she turned cold. Raising her hand, she drew her bow and

released a chilling hidden arrow aimed at him.

Lilly’s eyes were cold and determined as she spoke in a low voice, “It’s payback time!”

King Libra, filled with fury, felt his anger intensify. He had been hiding, but it did not mean he was

afraid. He was merely biding his time, and it certainly did not mean he lacked strength.

Furthermore, the current Ruler of Hell was not that powerful. At best, he was a more powerful mortal

child. How arrogant of Lilly to come to his doorstep alone!

King Libra was doubting himself.

Then, he drew a colossal long sword from his back and swung it viciously at Lilly.

This little pest will meet her demise today!

With a resounding boom, the golden Buddha statue was cleaved into fragments, leaving only half of the

Buddha’s body in the blink of an eye.

The once-smiling face of the Buddha was now split in half, his hand held out in a gesture of

compassion and pity towards all beings.

Lilly stood on the statue’s shoulder, her black cap long gone, her tousled bangs swaying in the gusting

wind. Her eyes revealed a hint of coldness, a mix of lingering childlike innocence and an emerging

stern resolve.

King Libra stood beneath the Buddha statue, forced to look up at her, which unsettled him greatly.

Three hundred years ago, he had been defeated by a woman, compelled to bow and look up. And now,

facing this woman transformed into a little girl, he still felt overpowered? Why was that?

She’s just a child. Who gave her such courage?

“Die!” King Libra bellowed, raising his long sword and launching an attack on Lilly.

The massive black sword seemed to rend the heavens and split the earth. The surrounding air

trembled, as if collapsing, and a violent gust swept up, drawing all the nearby Buddha statues into its

vortex.

Lilly gripped the Buddha statue’s ears with one hand while wielding her purple sledgehammer with the

other. She stood firm, resembling a resolute tree in the fierce wind.

She knew well that she was far from being King Libra’s opponent at the moment. But that would not

stop her from honing her skills.

Before smashing the Buddha statue, she had already prepared her escape route…

The black sword tore through the sky and the earth, emanating a chilling aura of dread. In response,

Lilly leaped from her perch, wielding the purple sledgehammer with all her might, and brought it

crashing down upon King Libra’s head.

“Eighty!” she exclaimed loudly, and in an instant, the purple sledgehammer shrank to half the size of a

house, enveloping King Libra and his enormous sword beneath its weight.

A resounding clash erupted, sparks flying like lightning and thunder. The purple sledgehammer

thwarted the bloodthirsty black sword, blocking its advance.

While she could not mount a counterattack, Lilly managed to hammer her opponent into the ground, as

if playing a game of whack-a-mole.

Lilly felt a sense of accomplishment. Her father always taught her to find contentment in life and to

progress one step at a time in her training.

Today’s training objective is to block King Libra’s attack and survive and the punching bag will be King

Libra.

King Libra was momentarily stunned when Lilly successfully blocked his attack. He quickly grabbed the

large sword that had been thrown back and thought to himself with satisfaction, “That’s right, she’s

gotten a bit stronger, but that’s nothing to me!”

He had been testing her and had only used five percent of his strength. He planned to save the

remaining strength in case he needed to make a quick escape.

Little did he know that Lilly’s strike made him realize the truth!

Lilly was seen lying on the table, half-kneeling, panting heavily while gripping the table for support.

She had used her full strength to defend his attack, while he had only used a fraction!

Hahaha, it seems that luck is on my side. Perhaps even the heavens had turned a blind eye and sent

this foolish little girl to my doorstep.

King Libra momentarily dismissed the thought of running away and grinned, calmly saying, “Where’s

your master? Isn’t he protecting you anymore? Hoho… You’re nothing but a child. In my next life, you

should learn from your master’s caution and wisdom.”

Back when he was fleeing underground, Pablo had prevented Lilly from pursuing and killing him.

Perhaps, he knew they would not be able to harm him even if they tried their best.

Unfortunately for Lilly, Pablo was not here now. Did she really believe she could kill him by herself?

King Libra wore a cruel smile as he tightly gripped his sword. Dark energy emanated from him, forming

a swirling black vortex around him.

Standing within the vortex, he seemed like a god descending upon the world, radiating an aura of

invincibility.

The giant sword descended once Jessiein, distorting the surrounding space. The once-smiling face of

the Buddha statue contorted into a grotesque shape.

The air split with a sonic boom, and even before the giant sword reached Lilly’s head, everything

around them was swept up, disintegrating into dust.

Lilly swung the purple sledgehammer horizontally, but this time she could not stop his attack. She was

sent flying with a loud crash, slamming into the Buddha statue with great force.

Despite the Buddha statue’s formidable strength, it was ultimately made of clay and gold. It crumbled

upon impact, burying Lilly beneath the falling debris.

King Libra laughed heartily as he approached the ruins step by step, giant sword in hand, his eyes

gleaming with pride.

He could finally avenge himself from the humiliation he faced three hundred years ago!

“Idiot,” he sneered. “You’re so daring to challenge your enemies one-on-one when you’re so weak.

That’s not bravery, but sheer stupidity.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t be alone if I kill you… Soon, I’ll send your entire family, including your pets to

join you in the afterlife!”

As King Libra raised his black giant sword, preparing for the final blow, he intended to crush everything

in his path, including Lilly buried beneath the ruins.

However, at that moment, a clattering sound emerged from the debris, and a massive gourd suddenly

soared into the sky. It resembled a dragon, engulfing all the black energy surrounding King Libra in one

gulp.

“Do you know why villains always lose? It’s because they talk too much!” Lilly’s soft voice rang out,

carrying an authority beyond her years.

Emerging from the rubble, she bore several bloodstains on her small face and arms. Yet, her

determination remained unwavering as she drew her bow, fully prepared.

Her black hair danced with the wind, while her eyes, black as night, seemed to delve into rivers of

stars, sharp and ethereal.

The hidden arrow emitted a piercing sound as it shot towards King Libra.

King Libra was taken aback.

How is this little runt so resilient? Hasn’t she died yet?

Hastily, he raised his giant sword, blocking the hidden arrows shot at him.

King Libra glanced at the jar of souls in midair as he trembled. He now feared the jar of souls more

than the hidden arrows.

The jar of souls was one of the Ruler of Hell’s three magical artifacts as it was a small world of its own.

In its prime, it possessed its own rules and constituted another realm.

His malevolence was being absorbed by the jar of souls, rendering him powerless to resist her attacks.

Reluctantly, King Libra reined in his aura, pressing it into one arm at his side.

Lilly fixed her gaze on King Libra.

The malevolence emanating from him resembled that of the Ghost Lord’s domain.

As long as his malevolence remained untouched by the jar of souls, she would be at a disadvantage.

But she possessed a jar of souls and the ghost lord!

“Go, Jessie!” Lilly raised her hand and tossed the ghost lord out.

Jessie was dumbfounded.

In fact, Lilly had captured Jessie, and she was using her as a means of assistance.

The other party, Jessie, hailed from the underworld, an entity of the same level as the King of Hades!

“Damn it! You tricked me!” Jessie shouted in frustration.

Lilly had so many ghosts in her jar of souls, why did Jessie had to come out this time?

Numerous ghosts within the soul jar started to emerge, displaying a range of personalities. They were

the harem spirit, the cowardly ghost, and the unfortunate ghosts, all sticking their heads out and

cheerfully exclaiming, “Go, ghost lord! The ghost lord is mighty!”

Jessie cursed silently.
