Chapter 194: 194、Scapegoat(Part 3)
When Lu Shu was done with his training, he recalled the issue regarding Lu Xiaoyu and said to Li Xianyi, "Grandpa, can you continue helping Lu Xiaoyu with her homework at night? I noticed that she has been rather hardworking and didn't you study middle school math? We wouldn't want to waste all that knowledge right?"
"From Li Xianyi's distress, +188!"
Li Xianyi looked at Lu Shu expressionlessly, are you two toying with me?
In reality, Li Xianyi liked the feeling of guiding the young lady through her work . He never had children and always heard stories of grandparents and grandchildren . The elderly taking care of children always brought about happiness .
But how could Li Xianyi find that time? And there wasn't any opportunity . He never even had children so how could he have grandchildren?
But during his time with Lu Xiaoyu, although Lu Xiaoyu was rather stubborn, the old man was actually happy . Especially after feeling Lu Xiaoyu's attitude towards him had improved, and she would even occasionally be considerate towards him, Li Xianyi felt a sense of kinship he had never experienced . It was like a flow of warm spring water at the bottom of his heart .
He witnessed Lu Xiaoyu's growth and even witnessed Lu Shu educating Lu Xiaoyu . Li Xianyi was extremely envious and this was probably the first time he regretted not marrying and having children .
Previously, he always thought that taking Lu Xiaoyu as a disciple would be wonderful but in the end, he felt that it was okay even if Lu Xiaoyu didn't learn from him . A little girl shouldn't be involved in those dangerous fights .
But he never guessed that Lu Xiaoyu was already a competent Class E practitioner .
But… where did my maths textbook go?!
Li Xianyi replied with a straight face, "Sure, I can teach her . But no more changing the agreement . "

Lu Shu laughed, "No problem, don't you worry . "
At this moment, Lu Shu suddenly had a question, "Before the recovery of magical energy, who did the golden foundation fight with?"
This was something Lu Shu had never understood . Could it be with similar practitioners that used an alternative way to train during the lack of magical energy?
Li Xianyi's finger was tapping rhythmically on the stone table as he pondered for a second, "I know what you have in mind but you're probably wrong . Besides Nie Ting, Li Yixiao and the rest of them were only Class Cs before the era of magical energy recovery and were already stagnant for a long time . But with the recovery of magical energy, their accumulated power suddenly broke through Class B . The golden foundation during the scarce era had a dominating presence and didn't need to fight with anyone else . And I can't tell you the truth you're looking for, not because I don't want to, but I can't . "
Lu Shu was stunned . No wonder Li Yixiao was so terrified of Li Xianyi . It was because his strength had always been a level lower…
At this moment, Li Xianyi took out a small test tube and handed it to Lu Shu, "You took 3 drops of blood from that Jiang Shuyi classmate in an attempt to pass the daoyuan selection . But what you missed out is that the heavenly network has a DNA database . With a simple comparison, you will be exposed . If you're worried that yours and Lu Xiaoyu's Tier A aptitude would be exposed and that she would be treated as combat potential and exposed to the dangers of battles, take this Tier B blood and exchange it with Jiang Shuyi's . The test tube is now in Li Yixiao's office and you have to be quick . Now will be a good time as someone will be coming to collect the blood samples in the afternoon . "

Lu Shu was shocked . Firstly, he didn't expect Li Xianyi to be well aware of so many things . Secondly, he didn't think that Li Xianyi thought of them as Tier A aptitude . This meant that when Li Xianyi told Shi Xuejin and Li Yixiao that Lu Shu was just a Tier F, he already knew the truth but didn't expose him . Thirdly, he never thought that Li Yixiao would help him exploit the system .
It seemed like the power of the golden foundation could not be underestimated…
Lu Shu suddenly asked, "What exactly is Jiang Shuyi's family background?"
"If you wish to know, why not ask him yourself?" Li Xianyi glanced at Lu Shu from the side of his eye and walked back in mysteriously .
Lu Shu suddenly thought Jiang Shuyi's family background wouldn't affect their friendship . And if he really wanted to know, asking frankly and openly was much better than doing it sneakily .
Li Xianyi had told him about the DNA database rather late . It was already 5 am in the morning and the sun would be up in an hour's time, giving Lu Shu very little time .
. . .
The first thing Li Xianyi did after going back into the house was to open the trash bin . He recalled that after throwing the maths textbook on the ground, he picked it up and threw it into the bin .
Looking through the rubbish bin was so demeaning!
But speaking of which, the old man felt some glee knowing that he could continue teaching Lu Xiaoyu . . .
. . .
At this moment, Aunty Liu walked out from her room and with a faint smile, handed the textbook to Li Xianyi, "I retrieved it for you yesterday . "
"Ahem," Li Xianyi cleared his throat, "Do not let Zhi Wei and the rest know about this . "
Aunty Liu laughed, "Why do you not let me help them exchange the test tubes?"
"How do you know if they would want your help? It's their own road so they have to walk it themselves . And their own mistakes, they have to deal with it themselves," Li Xianyi said calmly .
"I think that Xiao Shu settled Lu Xiaoyu's violent case very well," Aunty Liu said .
Li Xianyi sighed, "I originally thought that he was just a money digger but after this time, it seems like in his heart there's something else more important than money . "
"I think this child is rather nice . "
"Yes, rather nice . What a pity . "
Aunty Liu understood why Li Xianyi said it was a pity . That's because Lu Shu wasn't willing to join the golden foundation .
. . .
"Lu Xiaoyu Lu Xiaoyu, wake up wake up," Lu Shu knocked on Lu Xiaoyu's door and shouted .
Still drowsy, Lu Xiaoyu walked out, "Is breakfast ready?"
"What breakfast? Look at the time!" Lu Shu exclaimed . All you know is to eat!
Lu Xiaoyu looked at the clock and was enraged, "Lu Shu, it's only 5 am so why did you wake me up?!"
"Stop questioning and quickly summon your Class D soul puppet," Lu Shu wrote down Lu Xiaoyu's name on the test tube and passed it to her, "Use your puppet to sneak into Li Yixiao's office and swap this with the previous one . "
This was Lu Shu's most reliable plan . Right now, the security in Luo Cheng international school was strict and what if he or Lu Xiaoyu were to be caught?
After thinking for a long while, Lu Shu came up with this plan- to let the soul puppet go . The loss of the soul puppet wouldn't be a big deal and no one knew about the puppet's relationship with them anyways .
Lu Xiaoyu summoned the soul puppet, which was also their ideal scapegoat .

STEM: The Topical Dungeon
Inspired by CORE: The Volcanic Dungeon by Ace Arriande and a spiritual successor to my writing prompt series Evolution Barricade, STEM is a series following the reincarnation of Kaden into the fantasy world of Brogdar. Reborn as a "DM" and a plant, Kaden tackles the challenges of being the agent of the chaotic god: trying to be his very own dungeon master. However, unlike other stories, Kaden is often making fun of and dealing with disadvantages that the normal reincarnated hero would never have to worry about. A parody of the normal tropes of isekai, STEM is a periodic series that is intended to release a minimum of once per week. There may be times where there is more than one drop, but those would be special occasions. Additionally, the content tags are simply to try and ensure my readers know these stories can encompass a large variety of things. They may not immediately be in focus, but they will all end up appearing!

Re:volutionist
I died and then received an offer to be reincarnated in a Fantasy World.The problem is - I'm not exactly gonna be a ""hero"" of that world, this wasn't really an offer to begin with, and that strange shapeless black entity who gave me that ""offer"" wasn't really trustworthy... or sane. Now I am alone in the world that wants me dead. The world I am supposed to ruin as a part of a game I don't understand. I don't even know who plays that game... but it looks like it's a game in which everyone - from pawns to players - is trying to cheat.**********Mature Content Warning - foul language, gore (in the future), potential sex scenes (in the future).
