Chapter 634: The Ancestor of the Ashford Family
Upon hearing this, Alexander panicked and quickly said, "Grandfather, you don't need to worry. I have already thought of how to seek revenge on Fiona's descendants. I have decided to let Leo join my company and make his life miserable every day, so that he will never find success in his work."
"Well, it is indeed frustrating when one's work is always unsatisfactory. To never find success in one's work is truly worse than death," the grandfather nodded in satisfaction.
The grandfather continued, "But what use is it to only make his work life miserable? What about his marriage? His emotions? We must make him feel worse than death in every aspect!"
Ivy immediately raised her paw and said, "Leave that to me. I have already come up with a plan. I will find Leo a horrible and nagging wife who will make his life miserable. Every week, we will torture him in different ways. For example, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, he will kneel on a washboard, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, he will kneel on durians, and on Sundays, he will kneel on shards of glass!"
Upon hearing this, Alexander couldn't help but shudder. Fortunately, his wife was not a horrible nagging wife.
"Ah, that's a good idea. Quite satisfying!" the grandfather nodded approvingly. "Ivy, you have thought it through. By the way, where can we find such a horrible nagging wife? Do you have any leads?"
Ivy hesitated for a moment before saying, "Um..."
The grandfather continued, "If you don't have any leads, allow me, the grandfather, to pick a vengeful ghost from the underworld for you. After you train it, find a female corpse and let the vengeful ghost possess it. Then, arrange a marriage with Leo. The goal is to torture him so much that he wishes for death but cannot die!"
Oh my, Leo really won't have a single good day in the future.
Ivy thought hard and quickly said, "I already have a suitable candidate in mind. In order to seek revenge on Leo, I have raised an extremely venomous python. It will soon cultivate a human form. Once it transforms, I will arrange for her to marry Leo and torment him. This way, he will never have a good day in his career or love life."
"Good!" the grandfather expressed his approval with a single word.
The ten wives applauded loudly.
Ivy and Alexander looked at each other and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Leo, oh Leo, we went through so much trouble to save your life!
"Grandfather, can this life and death record book show where the departed souls go after death?" Ivy asked.
Their purpose for coming here was not to discuss how to seek revenge on Leo. It was to find out where the seven departed souls of the Ashford family went, in order to help them revive.
Since these seven bodies were not cremated, reviving them wouldn't be difficult as long as their souls were intact.
The grandfather threw the life and death record book to the butler and answered, "This life and death record book can only record events that happen during one's lifetime, from birth to death. As for what happens after death, you'll have to ask the King of Hell!"
"In that case...is it easy to meet the King of Hell?" Ivy asked.
The grandfather looked a bit embarrassed and said, "It is easy to meet him, but it's not so easy to come back..."
What did he mean by that?
Ivy and Alexander were both a bit confused.
The grandfather explained, "Under normal circumstances...
Next, after a person dies, their soul is controlled by the underworld. Based on their deeds in life, their next destination is determined. However, some people do not belong to a normal death. They died unjustly and with great resentment, so they do not obey the arrangements of the underworld. Instead, they search for a place to survive in the underworld. They seek revenge for their grievances and once they have settled their scores, they decide whether to meet the King of the Underworld or continue wandering as lonely souls and wandering ghosts."
Alexander suddenly realized, "So, the elder ancestor died unjustly and did not want to obey the arrangements of the King of the Underworld. Instead, he established his own place here. Now, if he returns, it means he is willing to accept the arrangements of the King of the Underworld!"
"I'm not willing!" the elder ancestor pointed at his group of wives. "If I am reborn and reincarnated, what will happen to my ten wives? Furthermore, my ancestors, grandfather's generation, and elder ancestor's generation have all been reincarnated. Now I am the eldest ancestor of the Ashford family. If I leave, who will take care of all of you in the underworld?"
Alexander,"..."
"Have you ever taken care of them? If you really had, how could the Ashford family have seven unjustly deceased spirits?"
Ivy,"..."
Doesn't it hurt the elder ancestor's face to say such things?
Instead of caring for the Ashford family's descendants, you were busy marrying multiple wives. Where is the true care for the Ashford family's future?
