Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 1390

Seeing everyone tense, Cloud quickly explained.

Originally, he intended to mention that Lilly was chased by a black-robed man, and he sought reinforcements but ended up being chased and falling into the evil eye...

However, as he thought that this might worry them, he explained, "Lilly took me to cultivate, but I ended up falling into the evil eye… She must be looking for me, and I was just worried that she couldn't find me, so I asked if she had come back."

Zachary breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head, saying, "No."

After all, they were in the underworld, and Lilly probably didn't expect Cloud to accidentally land in the Human Realm.

Josh rummaged through the Bag of Holding and retrieved a set of paper clothes. He waved his fingertips, inscribed Cloud's full name and birthdate onto it, and proceeded to burn the clothes in front of him.

In no time, Cloud had a set of clothes in his hands. After putting them on, he said, "Good timing. I've got a hood to cover up."

He wore the hood to conceal the left side of his face.

The uncle and nephew chatted for a while, and Cloud briefly explained what happened inside the ghost beast's belly, causing Josh to become extremely anxious.

Bettany made chicken soup, brought it in, and shut the door. Everyone stopped talking.

"Eat quickly!" She placed the soup down and said, "A few more dishes are coming. Wait here; I'll get them for you."

Josh offered, "Grandma, I'll go get them!"

Zachary stood up and accompanied Josh downstairs to fetch the food.

Cloud caught a whiff of the familiar aroma and immediately picked up the soup. He felt much better.

"This is…" he exclaimed.

Bettany explained, "This is a local specialty left by Lilly. There's still some remaining."

No wonder, Cloud thought in his heart.

Suddenly, Bettany reached out. Cloud dodged a bit, but she gently touched his cheek lightly.

Her voice choked up as she asked, "Cloud, does it hurt?"

Cloud smiled, his eyes welling up with tears as he replied, "No, Mom. Ghosts don't feel pain."

Bettany murmured, "That's good, that's good..."

Just as Cloud was about to say something, she asked again, "What about the wound on your chest? With such a big hole, did you think you could hide it from me?

With tears in his eyes, Cloud realized that she had seen everything.

He slightly opened his clothes and said, "It isn't so bad. This is something used to block it…"

With that, he took out Nephele and explained, "This is a friend I encountered along the way. She saved me but got into trouble herself."

Bettany stared blankly at the small cluster of bad aura in his hand. It resembled a grayish wool ball.

She was taken aback. How could something so small be a person?
