Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317 Wrecking the Ceremony

Pablo’s hand overlapped with Blake’s, and together, they exerted their strength on the spirit nail. To Blake’s surprise, he felt a slight tremor in the nail.

His eyes

widened, realizing that there was more to these matters than what he had researched.

As they continued pulling, both spirit nails began to loosen from their positions.

Meanwhile, inside Olivine Temple, concealed behind the sculpture of Olivine the Great, a man with at sinister expression wore a chilling smile.

“Dudroinia claims that one life is two, two is three, and three is all things…” he sneered.

“But I didn’t expect there to be another spirit nail here.”

A hint of disdain flickered in his eyes.

To him, all those self–righteous notions of good and evil were meaningless. In this world, only those who emerge victorious have the right to dictate terms.

With two spirit nails removed, the man could not help but feel disappointed. However, he knew that it was the only way forward at that moment.

He made a deep cut on his hand and allowed his blood to drip onto the spirit nail. He anxiously awaited the removal of the two outer nails, knowing that once they were pulled out, he could swiftly proceed with the ceremony and achieve his desired outcome.

Just as Lilly and Blake were about to remove the spirit nails,

Pablo sensed that something was amiss. He quickly intervened and called for a halt, realizing that it could not be so straightforward without any obstacles.

He tilted his head upward, witnessing the dark clouds converging in the sky, which sent a shiver down his spine. Pablo said with a grim expression, “There is one more!”

But at that moment, two spirit nails had already been pulled out halfway, and there was no way to stop their removal.

It was clear that the ceremony could not proceed without another person stepping in to pull out the remaining spirit nail.

He gritted his teeth, prepared to tear himself in half to save the situation and secure the well–being of his young apprentice.

At that crucial moment, a small figure rushed in hastily, and it was Grace. She coldly commanded, “Count

to 30 seconds!”

-This time, she was determined to succeed!

With the spirit compass tightly gripped in her hand, Grace made her way swiftly to the back of the Hero’s sculpture, where she finally spotted the third spirit nail.

Simultaneously, another man was standing nearby, his eyes filled with covetousness as he watched Grace.

20 more seconds…

1/4

Grace didn’t have the luxury to ponder the man’s intentions. She mustered her courage and hastily approached the spirit nail, hugging it tightly.

The man was caught off guard, astonished by her audacity to pull out the nail right in front of him!

He was angry and slapped Grace on the back!

Grace snorted.

10 more seconds!

She counted the remaining time in her heart as she bit the tip of her tongue. She was focusing all her energy on removing it.

S… 7…

That man didn’t expect Grace to be so difficult to deal with as a child, so he was careless, and hurriedly hugged Grace, trying to pull her aside.

Unexpectedly, Grace’s hand seemed to be glued to the nail, and with her strength, she pulled out half of the nail

The man was furious

The man was so angry he pressed her down. However, Grace resisted his efforts and he could not move her at all.

The man’s face twisted with rage, and in a moment of impulsive fury, he thrust a knife into Grace’s back.

Grace only counted the time she have left.

5… 4… 3…

She only had two seconds left to pull the nail, otherwise…

Grace could feel her strength fading away.

However, she could not give up. She could not let people say that she had no skill anymore. She believed she was strong.

She could not afford to lose against Lilly…

2… 1

In a surge of determination, Grace felt a sudden surge of strength coursing through her arm. With a cry of exertion, she mustered all her remaining energy and yanked the spirit nail out.

Simultaneously, the spirit nails outside the door were also pulled out.

How brave yet so pitiful.
