Free Web NovelAfter Lu Yibei had eye surgery and was discharged from the hospital, she couldn't overuse her eyes for a long time according to medical advice, and playing games was out of the question. Living alone in her home at Jingyi Apartment Complex, she couldn't play games, so she had no choice but to wander around.
During one of her strolls, she once encountered a middle-aged man who hadn't gone home after dark, squatting alone in the gazebo of a small garden, sobbing with his face covered.
Seeing such a scene, how could the always warm-hearted Lu Yibei ignore it?
She immediately went over, handed the middle-aged man a tissue, and expressed her concern. "Elder brother, are you alright? Did a relative pass away?"
"No? Then did your wife cheat on you, and it was in the car you bought her?" "Not that either? Then were you reprimanded by your Leader at work, and all the stocks you bought turned green?"
Under Lu Yibei's questioning, to avoid losing control and hitting someone, the middle-aged man took a deep puff of his cigarette and told the truth. He was forced out by his wife's demand for "public grain" (a euphemism for sexual intercourse).
Three months, a full three months, without a single day's break except for those few days. He really couldn't take it anymore! "I get it, so it's because you're not capable!" Lu Yibei said to the middle-aged man at the time.
Back then, she thought the middle-aged man didn't know how good he had it, but today, she could finally somewhat understand the middle-aged man's predicament of "having a home but being unable to return."
Just the things Ju Meng prepared, you'd be scared if you saw them too!
Glancing at the suite upstairs, Lu Yibei sighed silently, "Forget it, let's rest first. I'll go to the God Kingdom Prototype to see how Ancestor and Wang Yingying are getting along."
After muttering to herself, she weakly extended her right hand, spreading her fingers, and activated her connection with the God Kingdom Prototype. The next moment, an imposing Spiritual Energy fluctuation surged forth, and faint golden light erupted from her slender, fair fingertips, transforming into faint golden tendrils that intertwined before her, outlining a magnificent and complex banyan tree phantom.
As if rotating some kind of switch, Lu Yibei's hand rotated 180 degrees in the air, and the banyan tree phantom inverted with it. The moment the banyan tree phantom completed its inversion, the surrounding space seemed to be violently impacted by some force, suddenly shaking. The golden airflow stirred by the Spiritual Energy fluctuation pulled Lu Yibei's silver-white long hair, making it dance behind her.
A few breaths later, the banyan tree phantom glowed brightly, engulfing her figure.
"Duang—!"
Accompanied by a dull thud of metal collision, a close-fitting scale armor with a golden banyan tree pattern engraved on its chest fell to the ground. That was Lingtai Pure Karma in its most primitive state, after being reforged and fused with the God Kingdom Prototype.
——-
Just past six in the morning, the sun and moon within the God Kingdom Prototype were still operating as they had five years ago, and the sky was already showing the first light. Under the hazy sky, amidst the concrete jungle, early risers had already lit their lamps, each one a different life.
But the lives of the residents in the Lu Family Old House were a bit outrageous.
Pushing open the somewhat old wooden door, standing on the threshold, Lu Yibei froze as she looked at the scene in the old house's backyard.
Two people stood before the outdoor washbasin. One wore an ancient white dress with a cold demeanor, while the other, a tiny figure, wore a simply styled red belly band and could barely reach the washbasin by standing on a small stool.
The two were Xuanying Luofu and Wang Yingying.
They stood side by side, each holding a can of salt in their left hand and a willow branch in their right. With synchronized movements, they dipped the willow branches in salt, then inserted them into their mouths and stirred them around wildly.
Lu Yibei, "???"
What in the world? What's going on?
Why is Xuanying Luofu taking care of Wang Yingying? Where is Ancestor?
Also, they're brushing their teeth, right? Why aren't they using toothpaste?
There were so many things to complain about in this scene that Lu Yibei felt she could talk for an entire day if she were to elaborate freely.
A few breaths later, Xuanying Luofu noticed Lu Yibei at the doorway, put down the salt can and willow branch in her hands, and walked gracefully towards her, saying expressionlessly, "You're here? Then I'll leave this to you. Remember to take her to school later, it's the one at the end of this street, turn right."
The one at the end of Peony Street, turn right? Isn't that Little Red Flower Kindergarten? Although I would also send Wang Yingying to school, why isn't it Hua City Kindergarten, but Little Red Flower Kindergarten?
As she pondered, seeing Xuanying Luofu turn to leave, Lu Yibei came back to her senses and called out softly, "Wait, why are you here taking care of Wang Yingying? Where's Ancestor?"
"Heh!" Xuanying Luofu sneered twice, glancing sideways at the second floor of the old house.
Seeing her expression, Lu Yibei instantly understood—Qingji was still sleeping in.
After a moment of thought, Lu Yibei tentatively asked, "Did Ancestor force you to help him take care of Wang Yingying?"
Qingji was definitely capable of using power, verbal persuasion, or tempting with benefits to make Xuanying Luofu take care of Wang Yingying.
"Not so!" Xuanying Luofu's chin lifted slightly, and she said proudly, "No one can force me to do something I don't want to do."
She truly couldn't bear it anymore. She had never seen a parent forget to pick up their child from elementary school, nor had she seen a three-year-old child cook for themselves, let alone seen a child thrown out like a cricket to fight a nearly meter-tall wolfdog.
The most outrageous thing was using weakened Spells to treat the child as a target, calling it helping the child deeply experience the characteristics of various Spells.
If Wang Yingying weren't a urban legend, she would have probably died seven or eight times in just these few days.
"I remember you didn't want to leave Zixiao Platform with me initially."
As Xuanying Luofu thought, Lu Yibei's voice drifted faintly into her ears. Her eyelid twitched, and she said in annoyance, "That—"
"Oh, right, I later convinced you to come down the mountain with me, didn't I?" Lu Yibei said, narrowing her eyes slightly.
Upon hearing this, Xuanying Luofu's violently heaving chest gradually returned to normal. After glaring sideways at Lu Yibei, she said coldly, "It's good that you remember."
Compared to being tricked down the mountain by devious means, she found the phrase "convinced to come down the mountain" much more acceptable.
"But speaking of which, since you have childcare skills, I'll have to trouble you a lot with Wang Yingying from now on," Lu Yibei said.
She originally thought that since Xuanying Luofu was not forced by Qingji to take care of Wang Yingying, she must really like Wang Yingying to do it. Therefore, if she asked Xuanying Luofu to continue taking care of Wang Yingying, Xuanying Luofu should not refuse.

However,
After hearing Lu Yibei's words, Xuanying Luofu's thin lips almost immediately formed the shape of the word "good," but as the words reached her mouth, she seemed to suddenly remember something unpleasant, her eyes trembled slightly, and a fierce look flashed through them.
"No way! Wishful thinking! Absolutely impossible!"
She had clearly decided never again to help "Master" take care of their descendants. Thanks to Lu Yibei's words, she remembered what she had experienced before and timely prevented the same mistake from happening again.
Lu Yibei, "???"
What kind of triple rejection is this? Why did she suddenly get so angry? Wasn't she fine just now?
She watched as Xuanying Luofu's facial muscles tensed, her hands clenched into fists, and her body trembled slightly with anger. She immediately realized that this time, Xuanying Luofu wasn't being tsundere; she was genuinely angry.
But... why?
It was only then that Lu Yibei realized she knew very little about Xuanying Luofu. It seemed she would need to find more opportunities to learn about her companion sword, Miss?
Seeing Xuanying Luofu angrily flick her sleeves and disappear into the two-story building of the Lu Family Old House, Lu Yibei composed herself and waved to Wang Yingying, who was watching her in a daze.
"Wang Yingying, come here, come here. I have something important to tell you."
Hearing her, Wang Yingying, who was still brushing her teeth with a willow branch, heard Lu Yibei's call, took a mouthful of water, gargled her bitter-salty mouth with a "gulu-gulu" sound, then jumped off the small stool, trotted over, and threw herself into Lu Yibei's arms.
"Good girl!" Lu Yibei patted Wang Yingying's head, then turned and pointed in the direction Xuanying Luofu had left. "I ask you, do you like that Older Sister just now?"
Wang Yingying furrowed her small brows, thought seriously for a moment, and nodded. That Older Sister smelled good, she must be delicious!
"Then from now on, she's your godmother. If you want to do anything, just find her. If she doesn't agree, you hug her leg, Wang Yingying, understand?"
Although she didn't know why Xuanying Luofu refused to take care of Wang Yingying and was so angry.
But Lu Yibei felt that since she would proactively take care of Wang Yingying when Qingji was lazy, deep down, she must really like Wang Yingying, but for some reason, she was unwilling to show her affection.
Godmother? Hearing this term, Wang Yingying's eyes lit up, and she pointed to her wide-open little mouth. She had eaten Lu Yibei's family's Old Godmother (a brand ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) of chili sauce) before, and it tasted very good; she always remembered it.
"Not that kind of godmother!" Lu Yibei gently patted Wang Yingying's small hand. "Hmm, how do I put this? I mean, when I'm not around, just treat her as me."
Wang Yingying tilted her head, blinking her big eyes, staring blankly at Lu Yibei for a few seconds, then nodded as if she understood, yet didn't.
"It's okay if you don't understand now, you'll gradually get it," Lu Yibei said, then changed her tone and asked softly, "Oh, by the way, I heard Ancestor sent you to kindergarten? Tell me, what did you do at kindergarten?"
Wang Yingying's small eyebrows knitted together, and she remained silent for a few seconds with a very serious expression, then spoke the first words she said to Lu Yibei after transforming into human form.
"Bullied!"
Looking at Wang Yingying's serious little face, Lu Yibei felt a bit bewildered. The dignified second-generation Invasion Beast, bullied by a bunch of little brats?
What kind of messed-up plot is this!
"How did they bully you?"
"They snatched my fruit!" Wang Yingying pouted, sounding a little angry.
Lu Yibei, "Whose kids? How bad! Do they know that if they provoke Wang Yingying, the whole kindergarten will be doomed? Although she had already told Wang Yingying not to attack ordinary people, what if?" freewebnoveℓ.com
"~Then do you want to not be bullied, and even snatch their fruit?"
Can it be like that? Wang Yingying's eyes widened, and her small head nodded like a chick pecking rice.
"Listen carefully, I'll teach you how to do it. First, when they try to snatch from you again, don't resist, just generously give it to them." Hearing this, Wang Yingying immediately became unwilling, shaking her head like a rattle-drum.
Before, they just snatched some, but now she has to generously give it to them?
Tsk, don't shake your head, listen to me. After you give it to them, you cry. Don't cry out loud, just look teary-eyed and very wronged, you understand? But you must make sure the Teacher notices you."
"When the Teacher finds out and asks why you're crying, don't tell her. Just look directly at the little brat who snatched your fruit. At this point, you can start crying out loud."
Hearing this, Wang Yingying seemed to understand Lu Yibei's meaning and giggled foolishly.
Although after her "reincarnation," she appeared a bit silly due to her severe lack of understanding of this world, she wasn't foolish at all.
Relying on her Power, as long as you are willing to teach her, she can learn anything she wants to learn.
From a certain perspective, the only difference between her and the former Invasion Beast was a lack of knowledge and information due to not having devoured and replicated enough samples.
"Don't be so quick to laugh, it's not over yet! After it's done, when school is dismissed, you stare at those little brats, and when their parents appear, you quickly follow them and ask them if today's fruit was delicious, that yours were all snatched and you didn't get any, and if they can save one for you tomorrow."
"After that, you can record all the naughty things they do at kindergarten every day and tell their parents in the same way. And then, you don't even have to tell their parents anymore; you can directly use their naughty deeds to scare them, and even order them around to help you snatch other people's fruit."
"Wang Yingying, you have to remember, you are a very cute child right now. You have to use your appearance advantage and identity advantage, understand?"
Cute and cunning children have always been a very terrifying existence.
After listening, Wang Yingying tilted her head and looked at Lu Yibei, her eyes seeming to ask, "Will this really work?"
"Don't worry!" Lu Yibei rubbed Wang Yingying's head and said, "If you do as I say, it'll definitely work! I'll compile a guide for you to read later!"
"Alright, now go find Older sister and let her take you to kindergarten. If she doesn't agree, do you remember what I just taught you?"
"Hehe!" Wang Yingying smiled, hugged Lu Yibei's leg, looked up at her, and blinked her watery big eyes. "Yingying!"
Yes, yes, exactly!
As expected of an Invasion Beast, she learns things quickly.
Who could resist a little girl sculpted in pink and jade hugging their leg and acting spoiled?! Lu Yibei thought, and then Wang Yingying's voice sounded in her ears again.
"Yingying!"
Lowering her head to look at Wang Yingying, her gaze met those eyes like gems in a lake. Lu Yibei paused, then seemed to understand Wang Yingying's intention, and her eyelid twitched slightly.
Goodness! You're using what I just taught you on me right away, huh? But, did I really teach this? Why does it feel a bit manipulative?
The student has surpassed the Teacher, Lu Yibei thought.
