Chapter 210 Lilly's Inner Demons
That energy pushed that ghost backward. The slick ghost stared at Lilly in astonishment. He thought to
himself. I must have been careless just now; it doesn't count.
A sense of graveness emerged in his eyes. A strong aura of vanity emanated from his body. He roared
and pounced toward Lilly. He was dead serious at this point.
If I could not devour this child, I would...
A red light flashed once more as he was contemplating this. The ghost was violently thrown backward
by the second strike, crashing into the web that Lilly had just created.
Lilly remained in the same spot. She had not even moved a finger!
The ghost gazed at her in horror, and he growled, "You…!"
This kid is a good fighter. I'm sure that she's an expert at hiding her true strength.
Lilly blinked her eyes and asked, "Another round?"
The ghost was speechless.
Shameless! How dare you act innocent?
Lilly warned, "If you don't attack me, I will attack you!"
The slick ghost had many identities because it was concealed inside this man. Under layer after layer
of defense, it concealed his true self.
Although Lilly had no idea how he did it, the slick ghost showed his vulnerability. She planned to
remove the layers of defense that this slick ghost had built up.
Lilly rushed forward menacingly. She grabbed the ghost's foot and swung it when he was caught off
guard. She swung him around like a rag doll, slamming the ghost onto the ground. Lilly yelled, "Take
this! Take more of this!"
The ghost launched a furious counterattack, but Lilly released her hold right away. The red bracelet
thus released another strike at the ghost.
Lilly took advantage of the ghost's confusion. Once more, she charged at him, grabbed him, and
violently beat him.
Pablo was hidden in the shadows. When he saw this scene, he was in a state of shock. His young
disciple had mastered the techniques. She had not only mastered it but also had incredibly good luck in
that the slick ghost did not launch a counterattack against her.
A pfft sound was heard abruptly. A shadow sprinted out as the ghost shed his skin. Lilly was grabbing a
layer of "human skin" in her hand. It belonged to Shadow Ghost, who had previously lived in this
apartment.
That middle-aged ghost spoke in a weak voice, "Gosh, I don’t think I can go on. This malignant spirit is
too evil. It cut me in half and wore me like a cloak."
After saying this, the ghost turned into a wisp of vanity aura, and the jar of souls then absorbed it.
Zachary was astounded. He immediately thought of the game characters, such as Helen of Troy, Luna,
and Cleopatra, but none of them could match Lilly at this point.
"Sister," Zachary uttered as he moved over, not realizing that he was now addressing Lilly differently.
Lilly was panting. She urged, "Zac, don’t come here. Stand at the side."
The slick ghost immediately turned to shoot at the air next to Lilly after hearing this. He could not see
Zachary, so he had to rely on a wild guess. Then he viciously pounced at Zachary.
"Holy crap!" Zachary gasped in disbelief. His body had turned stiff.
In the nick of time, Lilly kicked Zachary out of the way. For the first time, Zachary appreciated getting
kicked. The first thing he did was cover the talisman on his forehead before cowering in a corner and
remaining motionless.
Slick Ghost was skilled at evading and hiding. When one of his schemes failed to work out, he
immediately went into hiding once more.
"Whoa!" Lilly exclaimed in surprise.
Does this slick ghost have a magical artifact with him? How did he vanish into thin air?
A man unexpectedly emerged from the other tightly closed door as Lilly was considering this.
In a harsh, deep voice, he chastised, "Lilly! Move your ass over here!"
Lilly froze when she heard this voice. She stared blankly at that man when she saw that the man who
walked out the door was Stephen, her foster father.
"Dad…" Lilly wanted to call him 'daddy' instinctively, but she shut her mouth at once.
Stephen sneered icily, "You're so great now. You have become the beloved daughter of the Crawfords.
You have a battle Daddy too. I suppose you wouldn't recognize me as your father any longer, would
you?"
He took one step after another, closer to Lilly, and he growled, "You ingrate! I've had to endure a great
deal of hardship raising you. How did you pay me back? You not only refused to give me a comfortable
life at the Crawfords, but you even permitted your uncle Anthony to put me in jail! Do you believe you
would have survived to be three years old without me?"
Stephen stared at Lilly. The look in his eyes was filled with resentment. He provoked, "Aren't you a
ghost tamer? Come on, if you have the nerves, come and get me!"
Instinctively, Lilly moved backward. She recalled her time spent with the Hatchers at this precise
moment.
She wanted a hug from her father after her mother died, but he pushed her away impatiently. She
joyfully selected a lovely flower from the garden and gave it to her father, who promptly threw it in the
trash. In the freezing, snowy yard, he forced her to her knees and nearly beat her to death.
Pablo's heart sank as he observed this. This turned out to be Lilly's inner demon. She was only three
years old when her mother passed away, and her father abused her. Perhaps her time spent with the
Crawfords helped her forget her traumatic past over time, but the memory of her painful upbringing and
the suffering she endured would always linger.
Slick Ghost was indeed cunning. He appeared to have thought of everything. He even brought
Stephen's spirit with him.
Stephen's spirits had not fully dispersed, even though he had been made into "clothes". Stephan was
still conscious. He was accusing Lilly with resentment, "You're to blame for my misery! Yes, I hit you.
But doesn't every father hit their children? No matter how terrible I was, I raised you up!"
Stephen suffered a horrible death. After his death, Blake scattered his ashes.
What was the purpose of this? This action, where Blake scattered the ashes after Stephen's death,
ensured Stephan was stripped of the opportunity to enter the afterlife and would not be able to
reincarnate. His spirit would wander between heaven and earth until nothing was left. Why could he
end up being so miserable while Lilly had such a good life?
Lilly muttered while shaking her head, saying, "No, I didn't. It's not my fault."
She summoned up the courage to cast a defiant gaze at Stephen. She said, "You brought it on yourself
with your wrongdoing. There is no such thing as a father having to hit their children; you are a liar."
Stephen was taken aback. He roared indignantly, "How dare you talk back to me!"
He did the same as he did when he was alive. Without hesitation, he reached for something and hurled
it at Lilly fiercely.
Lilly no longer endures it as she once did. Instead, she skillfully avoided it. There was a determination
in her eyes; she was no longer the helpless child who stood by and let this man beat her.
Lilly doing this only made Stephen angrier. He yelled and lunged at her, "I'm going to devour you alive!"
Pablo was sweating nervously. He doubted Lilly would have the will to murder Stephen. This might Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
have been the hardest decision she had to make. Stephen was correct in one sense—he did play a
part in raising Lilly. Should such a "father" be killed? How do children perceive such a father?
Pablo did not have to wait long. He saw Lilly raise her hand as Stephen lunged forward; the red
bracelet on her wrist then released a red light, knocking Stephen backward.
Stephen screamed in agony as he violently crashed into the red net.
Lilly had set up an extensive containment net in this room. No ghost could escape from this room;
everything depended on Lilly's choice.
Stephen vomited blood that was shaped by his vanity aura. He looked extremely miserable.
Lilly silently observed him from a position not far away.
Stephen suddenly had a dejected expression and let out a miserable smile. He chuckled and said,
"Hehe, you have grown up now. You even dared to hit your father now. Lilly, when you were a baby, I
adored you dearly. You were my little darling. Never mind; I should stop talking. Just finish it up! Kill me.
You should kill me, and it will make you happy, right? I will be happy to die at your hand."
Stephen closed his eyes and appeared to have seen right through everything.
Just wait! Others may not understand Lilly, but didn't I have a solid understanding of who she was? She
had yearned for my love since she was a young child. There was no way she could harm me!
