    Chapter 409 Edification from Dad


    Lilly raised her hand and flung the stone she was holding! Chris sneered, taking satisfaction in his


    urate prediction and attributing it all to mere luck. Observing the direction of her throw, it was off! ite


    remained standing, perplexed by what had just happened. However, the stone struck the tree behind


    him with astonishing precision the next moment. It ricocheted off and delivered a solid thud on the back


    of hik head!


    Chris eximed, “What?! How was this even possible?le groaned as he fell to the ground. Before he


    could crawl away to escape, a foot il in leather bootsressed him down.


    keughed derisively, his eyes glinting coldly. “Run you can. Keep going”


    Chris, unwilling to admit defeat, hastily ced severalstily drawn talismans on ke’s body.


    However, to his dismay, a golden light shimmered from ke’s ure, instantly incinerating the talisman.


    It’s an amulet! The amulet protected him from top to toe.


    Chris clenched his teeth in hatred-Who exactly is behind these people?! It did not seem reasonable


    that they could use the talismans in such numbers. He locked his gaze onto ke and spoke sinisterly,


    “The world is ever-changing, with fortunes rising and falling We’ll wait and see!”


    ke retorted, “Do you still have a chance toe ou Familiarize yourself with a life sentence.”


    Chris maintained a stoic silence, his only response a inful snort. He could sessfully escape or not


    rely solely on his own abilities. After all, if a person coudn’t escape, what about the soul? He had long


    anticipated that he would be the target, so he had already prepared an exit strategy. A faint, cold smirk


    appeared at the corners of his mouth as he closed his eyes, refusing to utter another word.


    A soft voice suddenly arose, “Mister, let me calcte for you. In this lifetime, you’ll have no worries


    about food and clothing. You’ll even be adorned in a yellow be, not to mention the splendid bracelets


    and ankle chains! No more toiling and running around.”


    ke raised an eyebrow, unsurprised. Chris would undoubtedly be sent to Obsidian prison, where the


    prison uniform happened to be a yellow robe. Chris disregarded it, opting instead to shut his eyes and


    emanate an indomitable aura.


    Pablo crossed his arms, his expression devoid of emotion. “Stealing souls right under the eyes of the


    Ruler of Hell-truly audacious.” He continued, “Tulip, give him a taste and cut off his escape route!


    You’ve been using the containment spirit until now, but this time, let me teach you something new-a


    lesson from


    Dad.”


    Lilly stood there, momentarily baffled. “What? A lesson from Dad?”


    She nced at her father in a puzzled manner, who was summoning Uncle Davenport and Uncle


    Arthur toe and capture someone. Lilly looked back at Pablo.


    Pablo exined, “This spell can obstruct the target’s path and prevent their soul from escaping.” But


    wasn’t it about soul-swapping? Instead, he directly sealed him off, so he couldn’t engage in these


    dubious practices. His extraordinary and unique talent would alo be subdued, preventing him from ever


    engaging in nefarious deeds again. This effectively marked the end of his career in this domain, hence


    why this spell was dubbed the “Career Cut.” However, Pablo found the name to be overly grave and


    believed it would be difficult for children to remember. His name was better, simpler to grasp, and


    casier to remember.


    He continued, “This talisman works on the same principle as the containment spirit. The


    containment spirit restrains spirits, while Dad’s teachings restrain the human soul, just like when we


    recite with the


    1/2


    master…” His expression turned serious as he raised his hand. Lilly quickly stood upright, imitating him


    by raising her hand.


    Pablo took a deep breath, his gaze intense, and abruptly pped Chris with his palm,manding,


    “Call


    Dad!”


    Lilly followed suit, focusing as she pped her hand a eximed, “Call Dad!”


    ke smirked. “Call Grandpa.”


    Chris was perplexed. Was he going mad? Why subject him to insults when they could simply arrest


    him?


    Both Layton and Arthur twitched at the corners of the mouths. The head of the McNeil family indeed


    spoiled the young missy.


    Chris was locked away, suppressing his bitterness. He had no idea that the p Lilly delivered had


    closed off all his avenues of escape. His mind raced, still pondering how to draw a talisman while in


    prison,plete the ritual, and then sessfully switch to another body, all without being detected and


    escaping unnoticed. Little did Chris know that once he realized he would be imprisoned indefinitely,


    with no escape or tricks left, would he regret it. Especially considering he still had billions in savings


    and scattered vis throughout the country. Now that he was destined for prison, everything would be


    in vain. The two most tragic things in a person’s life are: being alive without money and leaving behind


    money while being


    gone.


    As Chris was being escorted away, Lilly experienced anewed sense of aplishment. It all started


    from Uncle Bryson encountering the ghost bride in the haunted house, to the point where Uncle Bryson


    became attached to the soul puppet. And now, she caught the big bad guy! Oh, wait, it was Dad!


    Lilly clung to ke’s leg and showered him with praise. “Dad is amazing! Dad is the best in the whole


    N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    world!”


    He nced at her and chuckled, “Alright, enough of that. What vor of ice cream do you want?” No


    need for excessivepliments. Even in the midst of a chaotic situation, he would deliver the ice


    cream directly to her.


    Lilly happily raised her hand, “I want strawberry vor! Father and daughter held hands as they walked


    out of the woods.


    She swung ke’srge hand, joyfully saying, “Dad, Master just taught me a new skill! It’s amazing!”


    ke suddenly paused, and as expected, he heard her continue, “This skill is called Dad’s Teaching!


    With at p on the bad guy, his soul gets locked inside his body, and he can never do bad things


    again. Isn’t it super cool?”


    Observing the enthusiastic child with rosy cheeks, he couldn’t help but curl his lips. So, her mentor was


    also unreliable?


    Pablo muttered on the side, “What so amazing about if It’s just ice cream.”


    At that moment, one of his subordinates hurried over and whispered, “Mr. MacNeil, that bald guy


    suddenly rolled his eyes…”
