Lilly personally visited and secretly observed Synjin's situation after his discharge from the hospital.

Using the Pen of Judgment, she delved into his psychological journey and his past life.

When he was young, he lacked ambition and relied on his parents for dowry and marriage. He and his wife had a child, whom they would leave with their parents when the child was around six months old.

As a couple, they worked outside their hometown and only returned once or twice a year. It wasn't until their parents grew old and fell ill, eventually passing away, that they brought all four children back to live with them.

With the sudden burden, his wife became exhausted, and he sought medical help everywhere... but his wife still passed away.

Synjin was left alone to bear the financial and educational expenses of four children, while also taking care of both the older and younger ones. In his youth, he was the typical person who kept quiet outside bu complained about everything when he was home.

He blamed his eldest son, questioning why he didn't help him with chores or earn some money during summer vacation, after being raised by him all these years.

He blamed his eldest daughter, saying she wasted several years' worth of tuition fees by studying so much and not getting into university. He asked her if she thought she was deserving of his hard work in supporting her education.

He complained to his second son, expressing how difficult his life was and how he wished someone would share the burden. He felt that their four mouths were always demanding food but never capable of helping him in any way.

He lashed out at his youngest son, questioning how he could be so happy at home while his father was working so hard. Was he not grateful for his father's sacrifices?

The children grew up with a mix of gratitude, guilt, and self-blame. They gradually developed strange thoughts: they believed that happiness was not something they deserved and were afraid to be too joyful, fearing a sense of guilt...

Taking care of their father was their duty, but whenever the responsibility fell upon them, they would subconsciously avoid it...

One could say that the old man's miserable old age was the result of his actions.

"So, that's how it is. The pitiful have their faults."

Seeing the current misery of the old man, anyone would feel sympathy and heartache upon witnessing it.

But was he truly innocent?

Lilly put away the Pen of Judgment, having gained a clear understanding of the situation. She once again thought about the question she had pondered before: perspectives are relative. For others, Synjin was pitiful, but in her eyes, it was just karma catching up with him.

For the Reed family, she and Anthony were detestable, and they believed the world was unfair. However, in her eyes, they deserved the consequences of their actions...

In an instant, enlightenment washed over Lilly. She suddenly saw through it all.

Pablo had said, "The world is full of various experiences."

So, isn't that just the way the world is?

And thinking about what Blake had said, there is no absolute right or wrong; as long as one does what they are supposed to do, it's enough!

At that moment, light radiated from Lilly, and the Pen of Judgment floated in front of her automatically!

Previously, she couldn't handle the Pen of Judgment properly, and anyone as formidable as the King of Cities could have easily killed her and taken the pen away from her. But now, things were different.

Lilly felt that she and the Pen of Judgment were completely in sync, and she would no longer fumble with the pen.

For example, before, when she wanted to pluck a soul flower, if she stood outside Hidden Valley and tried to control the Pen of Judgment to pluck it, the strong wind from the valley could have swept the pen away, making it impossible to retrieve.

But now, if she used the Pen of Judgment to pluck a soul flower, it wouldn't be carried away by the wind.

Previously, when she encountered the King of Cities, even if he killed her and took the pen, he could refine it until the pen became his own, even if it cost her life.

But now even if the King of Cities killed her and took the pen, no matter how much he refined it, he couldn't make the Pen of Judgment his.

That's the difference!

"I understand! I truly understand!" Lilly danced with joy, and with a wave of her hand, the Pen of Judgment rested in her palm!

Blake, who was driving, looked puzzled.

What happened to his Lilly again...

Lilly said, "Dad, I've become a little more powerful!"

Blake realized, "Is it because you can use the Pen of Judgment now?"

Lilly nodded, "Yes, yes!"

Blake praised her without reservation, "Daddy's little prodigy is amazing!"

Little did Blake and Lilly know just how much more powerful she had become!

Lilly was overjoyed, and when she returned home, she happily summoned the victim ghost to play... oh no, to judge.

In the jar of souls, the harem spirit and ghost bride stood not far from the Sacred Tree.

The ghost bride shyly peeked out, "Oh my, I wonder if Master Belmont has awakened today? Let me go check..."

The harem spirit interrupted, "That's enough! What kind of thoughts are you having every day?... Let me handle it!"

The two spirits bickered, arguing non-stop, but they knew there was a limit. Even though they had been inside for so many days, they hadn't taken the opportunity to peek when no one was around. They understood that doing so would be too disgraceful.

At that moment, the victim ghost swooshed out as Lilly summoned it.

The weakling spirit perked up, "The ghost story is starting!"

Swoosh... he also went out and took a seat on the front-row sofa!

The harem spirit said, "Hey, wait for me!"

After speaking, she swooshed out as well.

The other ghosts were a bit slow to react, but they followed suit one after another.

Rich spirit yawned and stared at the unscrupulous spirit and greedy ghost, "You two better behave and stay put."

The unscrupulous spirit protested, "They all went out to have fun, why can't we!"

The greedy ghost chimed in, "Exactly! We three came later, so where should we sit!"

Rich spirit lifted his eyelids and turned over, "Where should we sit? We sit wherever the benefits are."

What a fool!

In life, he worked tirelessly to earn money but died under a pile of it while trying to distribute it to his employees.

As a malignant spirit, he had only recently started wandering before being captured by that practitioner, possessed, and forced to earn money for others.

During the afterlife, he worked hard and dedicated himself.

But now, he only needed to lie here, keeping an eye on these two fellows. If he behaved well, he could get a regular position.

Only a fool would want to leave!

So, despite the protests of the unscrupulous spirit and greedy ghost, the rich spirit remained carefree and refused to let them go out.

If they wanted to mess around with the evil energy vein in the jar of souls or the soul flower, the rich spirit would be the first to punch them.

The unscrupulous spirit and greedy ghost cried foul, but it was no use. Although they were all malignant spirits, the rich spirit was more formidable than them. If they truly fought, the rich spirit wouldn't even need to lift a finger; with a loud howl, the harem spirit and others would come back, and the two troublemakers would suffer for their actions.

They had no choice but to accept their fate and continue their work...
