Chapter 1235: Tear Tricker’s Death
What was Lu Shu’s ident.i.ty? This question was abrupt but Lu Shu thought Li Xianyi had held in this question for a very long time.
18 years ago, the Golden Foundation pursued Tear Tricker all the way into Luo City. Lu Shu thought that it was not a coincidence for Tear Tricker to reach Luo City as the second remains opened there. The Seal of Lands had obtained the area of Luo City. The old King of G.o.ds probably ordered the Puppet Master to reach Luo City by hook or by crook.
The Seal of Lands was specially kept in the Beimang remains by the old King of G.o.ds.
What was in the box behind Tear Tricker? If Nie Ting and s.h.i.+ Xuejin could think of the answer, the Golden Foundation must have made the same speculation too. However, n.o.body placed a great emphasis on it.
After returning from the Luniverse, the Golden Foundation paid close attention to Lu Shu’s actions. Lu Shu did not take any measures to keep his search on clues a secret, hence it was expected for the Golden Foundation to know about it.
At this moment, Li Xianyi could not bear but think of the baby in the box… Could it be Lu Shu? After all, having reached this level of status, Li Xianyi and the rest figured out that it was not easy for one to advance to the Master Realm.
As an ordinary villager who came from the orphanage and had no supporters, Lu Shu managed to catch up eventually. How many geniuses like him were there in the world?
What about the baby? Until now, n.o.body discovered a person who was worth the Puppet Masters’ sacrifice. To Li Xianyi, the baby had to at least be as successful as Lu Shu for the Puppet Masters’ sacrifice to be justified.
Therefore, Lu Shu seemed to be the only answer and there were no other options.
However, if Lu Shu was indeed the baby in the box, that meant that the Golden Foundation had held a grudge with Lu Shu long ago. The Golden Foundation had travelled thousands of miles and reached Luo City in the pursuit of Tear Tricker, only to realize that they were chasing after Lu Shu.
After Lu Shu returned, he never looked for Li Xianyi. Similarly, Li Xianyi never did either.
Actually, both of them were aware of the truth. They were just not willing to admit it.
Cloud Yi had once told Li Xianyi some things in person. However, she did not tell him about how the seven Puppet Masters took on a huge responsibility and escaped from the palace, two of them died there while the other five came to Earth. Everyone thought that only four Puppet Masters came over as Arcane had never appeared before. However, in reality, only five of them came.
Although Arcane had combined with the tree, Li Xianyi and the rest were unaware of the details.

Li Xianyi probed, “You should know about the past events of the Puppet Masters. Back then, the four Puppet Masters carried a gigantic box, what do you think was inside the box?”
Lu Shu said, “Food?”
Li Xianyi shook his head. “No, in fact, they s.n.a.t.c.hed other people’s food on their way.”
“Clothes?” continued Lu Shu.
“No, they never changed their clothes,” Li Xianyi shook his head and said.
Lu Shu was pondering over it. Four people carrying a huge box, it was neither filled with clothes or food. “Did they carry a set of mahjong?”
Li Xianyi was stunned.
From Li Xianyi’s distress, +666!
Why was he pretending to not know anything when it was an obvious fact? He even guessed that it was mahjong?
Then, Lu Shu looked at Li Yixiao and laughed, “If you found out that there was a baby in the box, would you kill him?”
Li Xianyi frowned and kept silent. Then, he sighed, “I won’t, the baby is innocent.”
That was right. The Golden Foundation had never taken the role of a villain. Although there were increasing internal conflicts, they had moral principles. Who would be able to kill a baby?
n.o.body would be able to do that.
“I am answering a question you had in the past,” laughed Lu Shu, “My current ident.i.ty is the Ninth Heavenly King, Lu Shu.”
It was the Ninth Heavenly King instead of the King of G.o.ds, or leader of the Puppet Masters. Lu Shu came over to tell Li Xianyi that their relations.h.i.+p was not affected.
Although they were enemies in the past, they should kill the schemers instead of fighting amongst themselves because of the schemer’s lie.
It was difficult to let it go and he felt sorry for Tear Tricker. However… what else could Lu Shu do? Kill Li Xianyi?
There was too much hatred in the world, too many troubles, too many suspicions and too many conflicts. Lu Shu could not deal with all or even any one of them perfectly.
He was a person, not a G.o.d.
Lu Shu asked, “After Tear Tricker died, where did you bury him?”
Li Xianyi said after thinking, “I buried him on the Beimang Mountain. He had a tomb without words and there were very small engravings with the words “Puppet Master”. That girl… What a pity, the Golden Foundation is sorry for her death. However, we did not kill her, she committed suicide.”
Lu Shu was stunned. “Girl?”
This was the first time Lu Shu had heard about Tear Tricker’s gender. n.o.body told him about it in the past. Lu Shu asked curiously, “Did she commit suicide?”
“Yes, she killed herself with a sword,” sighed Li Xianyi, “She said that we don’t deserve to kill her.”
It had to be admitted that be it Tiger Zhi or Cloud Yi, as well as Tear Tricker, they were extremely wild. Even if they died, they had to die standing up.
Lu Shu hesitated. “Then could it have been…”
“I know what you are thinking about. We have checked on this thoroughly. All the survival possibilities are gone, there will definitely not be any accidents,” sighed Li Xianyi, “Moreover, her tomb was looked after by someone all day long. Nothing could go wrong.”
Lu Shu felt dispirited. Although he did not have much to do with Tear Tricker, she died because of protecting him.
However, thanks to their trip to Australia, he had resolved his conflict with Li Xianyi. Lu Shu felt that one had to be brave when facing problems. If Li Xianyi did not clarify things with him, there would probably still be a barrier between them and it would be difficult for them to return to their relations.h.i.+p in the past.
Lu Shu walked out of the Golden Foundation’s building and many people were looking at him. That was because the news of Lu Shu attacking on the gra.s.sland had spread and they were guessing who exactly Lu Shu was.
The answer was actually obvious. Many people in the Golden Foundation knew that Li Xianyi was very close to the Ninth Heavenly King. This young Asian was also very powerful.
Many people looked at Lu Shu and felt fortunate. That was because they were one of the only few people who saw the Ninth Heavenly King in real life.
Countless Australian reporters rushed over but it was too late.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Shu vanished.
