Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 860

Chapter 860 Searching for Ivan 

Unbeknownst to Pablo, his thoughts drifted to a scene from a drama where an unconscious prisoner was awakened by a jailer pouring a bucket of water over them. 

Lilly anxiously replied, “No, really! I just accidentally… poured a tiny bit into your nose, I promise!” 

She gestured with her index finger and thumb to demonstrate the small amount. 

Pablo found it both amusing as he shook his head and said, “I was only teasing you.” 

Looking around, he continued, “We have no idea how long we’ve been in this spot. We need to know what direction we’re in…” 

Now that Lilly was awake, she was still just a child. Pablo feared that she too might lose herself unknowingly. He dreaded the thought of both of them wandering numbly in the abyss, eventually becoming part of the strange fog. 

Lilly pointed in a direction and exclaimed, “It’s easy to know the way! Let’s go this way!” 

Pablo sighed and replied, “You don’t understand the power of the abyss. The anomaly we encountered when we fell hasn’t reappeared. Instead, we’ve been standing here for quite some time…” 

Inside the jar of souls, the cowardly ghost silently added, “We’ve been here for three months.” 

Lilly repeated what the cowardly ghost said, “Master, we’ve been here for three months…” 

Wait, three months?! 

Lilly was astonished. She felt like she had just fallen asleep, yet three months had passed. 

Pablo’s heart sank. He had been lost for three months! 

He could not help but think of Ivan’s face in the mist and wondered if Ivan was alright now… 

Lilly urgently pleaded, “Master, please let me down. We need to find the exit quickly…” 

Three months was far too long! 

They had no idea how much time had passed in the mortal world. Lilly’s thoughts turned to her grandmother, and she grew increasingly anxious. 

It’s been so long. Grandma must be worried sick. Please, let her bef 

Pablo did not put Lilly down and explained, “There are ashes underneath, and it’s dirty.” 

As a ghost in the underworld, Pablo’s feet still needed to touch the ground, but the layer of ashes was so thick that it took a considerable amount of energy for him to lightly step on it while maintaining his consciousness. 

He chose not to float to conserve energy, even if it was just a little bit. 

“If I put you down, the ashes will bury you up to your waist.” Pablo hugged Lilly tightly, shifted her to his right arm, and added, “Lilly, you must stay focused and not be consumed by any obsessions.” 

It was his obsession with getting Lilly out of the abyss that caused him to fall into that state earlier. 

In the abyss, any obsession would be magnified. 

Lilly nodded, understanding the importance of her master’s words. 

“Master, do you think that if Ivan fell, would he have to walk through the ashes too?” 

Pablo was taken aback but nodded, saying, “Yes, that’s a possibility. Why do you ask?” 

Lilly’s face lit up with excitement. “Then can we find him by following the traces Ivan left behind?” 

Pablo pondered for a moment. “In theory, it’s possible. However, when I saw him three months ago, he had already lost his soul.” 

Given the amount of time that has passed, it’s uncertain if Ivan is still in the vicinity. 

“Furthermore, the area is shrouded in an eerie fog, making it difficult to see our surroundings.” 

The eerie fog acted like smog, limiting visibility to just three hundred feet. It would be challenging to find Ivan through his tracks alone. 

But Lilly declared confidently, “Leave it to me!” 

To her, these eerie fogs were a treasure! 

She could not let them go to waste! 

Lilly’s first thought was to capture the mist in the jar of souls, but after trying, she found that 

the gourd did not seem to have an appetite for it. 

Then she immediately thought of the Palace of the Ruler of Hell… 

What about the Palace of the Ruler of Hell? 

She descended from the King of Hades’ Palace initially. Where was she headed now? 

The palace was sad… 

Lilly finally remembered me! 

When Lilly thought about it, she instinctively knew where the Palace of the Ruler of Hell 

was. 

This time, it was unlike her first descent. 

Now she could feel where the palace was. 

“Master, it’s this way! Not that!” 

Lilly pointed in a different direction. “I sensed the Palace of the Ruler of Hell! My palace is over there!” 

Pablo promptly carried Lilly and soared above the layer of ashes. 

Following Lilly’s guidance towards the Palace of the Ruler of Hell, they swiftly traversed the dense ghost barriers and discovered the palace! 

The Palace of the Ruler of Hell was less than a mile away from them. In less than five minutes, Pablo flew down and located it. 

Lilly hastily retrieved the shattered palace from the thick ashes. It retained its original size when it was struck by the boulder. No one had restored it to its former pendant shape, and it remained as it was. 

“I’m sorry!” Lilly minimized the Palace of the Ruler of Hell while patting it gently. “I didn’t mean to forget about you!” 

The Palace of the Ruler of Hell trembled on the bracelet. If it could speak, it would express its grievances. 

After Lilly tidied up the palace, she created an additional layer to separate the inner space of the hall. 

Within the confines of the Palace of the Ruler of Hell…. 

King Libra lay weakly on his stomach when he suddenly heard a rumbling noise…
