Chapter 131: Lu Li: I Like Twin Tails
Ekaterina had put it so bluntly, so even if Lu Li was a total newbie, he understood.
Although he practiced cultivation, the spiritual energy in his body was also a kind of energy, so many instruments could detect it.
What depressed Lu Li was why his luck was so bad, running into Ekaterina of all people.
“Your Ideal Eye comes from Ideal Power, which is the boon the Ideal Dragon gave to humans. It’s said that those who possess the Ideal Eye are qualified to become Ideal Messengers.” Ekaterina continued.
Hearing this, Lu Li immediately realized he was in big trouble.
The Ideal Dragon Zekrom was also known as the Black Dragon.
That was a true Tier 1 God, and not even a weak one among Tier 1 Gods.
Judging by this world’s Divine Beasts’ prestige and their level of activity, saying that whoever gains Zekrom’s recognition becomes king of the world is no exaggeration at all.
“But compared to the Black Dragon, I still prefer twin tails.” Lu Li muttered in his heart.
After arriving at the destination, Ekaterina got out of the car and looked at Lu Li with a delighted gaze. “Now you know why big sister took a liking to you, right?”
Lu Li’s mouth twitched slightly as he nodded depressedly.
“Is all this very common?” Lu Li asked, waving the instrument in his hand.
“Not very common, but not that rare either.” Ekaterina explained vaguely.
“The reason I told you this is because I want to give you this.”
Ekaterina tossed a mechanical watch to Lu Li, then explained, “This thing is called an energy barrier device. It can mask the energy fluctuations on your body and also prevent psychic powers from hypnotizing you.”
Lu Li calmly put away the mechanical watch.
This was a good item. Although he wasn’t sure if she had tampered with it, he could normally just toss it into his space backpack, and wear it when needed.
Seeing Lu Li accept the mechanical watch, Ekaterina urged, “Let’s go.”
The two soon arrived inside a couple restaurant. After sitting down, Ekaterina picked up the menu and ordered for herself.
Sitting across from Ekaterina, Lu Li maintained a kind yet distant smile the whole time.
Now that she knew this secret, she definitely wouldn’t let him go easily.
So Lu Li waited for Ekaterina to make the next move.
Perhaps seeing the worry in Lu Li’s heart, Ekaterina took the initiative to break the ice. “You don’t need to worry that I’ll use this to threaten you. If you’re unwilling, no one can force you.”
Lu Li didn’t believe a word Ekaterina said.
He had suffered from his lack of experience. Lu Li truly hadn’t expected this world to have energy detectors, and the most outrageous part was that he had been discovered out of nowhere.
“I won’t leave the Jiuzhou Region.”
Lu Li decisively stated his position.
In the Jiuzhou Region, he had some ability to protect himself. If he really went with Ekaterina to the Great Russia Region, he’d truly be meat on her chopping block.
“I wasn’t planning to take you away from the Jiuzhou Region either.” Ekaterina rolled her eyes at Lu Li.
Although she put on an indifferent face on the surface, her heart was actually bleeding.
The Ideal Eye!
It was right in front of her, yet she couldn’t take it away. What difference was there from a Champion Level Pokémon dangling in front of her that she couldn’t abduct?
Hearing this, Lu Chen let out a heavy sigh of relief in his heart, but alarms went off loudly in his mind.
The reason this woman was so nonchalant was either because she had already figured out how to cook him, or because some power was influencing her to lure him away.
Thinking of this, Lu Li calmly asked, “Who else knows about my situation?”
Hearing this, Ekaterina immediately looked at Lu Li with an appreciative gaze, then sincerely praised, “You really are a smart person.”
“Big sister does want to claim you for herself, but unfortunately, someone beat me to it.” Ekaterina sighed.
After sighing, Ekaterina didn’t forget to badmouth the competitor. “Right now, you’re a bird in someone else’s cage. I can only come tease you occasionally.”
“Who is it?”
Lu Li looked at Ekaterina seriously.
Lu Li didn’t suspect the Yu Family. The reason was simple—they weren’t qualified. At least the Yu Family had no qualification to make Ekaterina hesitate.
Ekaterina said, “You should know this person. Her name is Qu Suxin.”
“Qu Suxin?”
Lu Li frowned. Among the people he had contact with, there was absolutely no one by that name.
“Qu Suxin… Qu…”
“Wait!”
Lu Li’s facial expression instantly paled as he remembered—everything connected.
Fairy Heavenly King—Qu Suxin!
Wasn’t the Fairy Nursery in Nandu under that Fairy Heavenly King’s name?
So that’s when he was exposed.
Lu Li suddenly understood.
“Looks like you remembered.”
Ekaterina, resting her chin on her hands, looked at Lu Li’s sudden realization with a face full of delight.
Lu Li nodded with an ugly facial expression, then directly asked, “What does that Fairy Heavenly King want to do with me?”
“Observe, cage.”
Ekaterina naturally wouldn’t say anything good about Qu Suxin.
“Just observation? Looks like the power of the Ideal Eye isn’t enough to make those high-and-mighty big shots lose their minds.” Lu Li thought fortunately in his heart.
He was indeed quite fortunate. For him, if only Qu Suxin or Ekaterina had discovered him, it would have been a terrifying thing.
The fortunate part was that both of them had discovered him. Now all he could do was wait for these two women to fight like the snipe and clam, then he could reap the benefits as the fisherman.
This was the most ideal result.
And the worst result was just one of them winning, then he’d have to follow whichever one it was.
“Alright, I’ve told you pretty much everything. Next, let’s talk about Pokémon breeding.” Ekaterina said.
Hearing this, Lu Li instantly became interested.
If you’re bringing this up, then I’m interested.
Next, the two discussed Pokémon breeding together in the couple restaurant.
No scheming, no benefit disputes—just two trainers exchanging everything about Pokémon.
After coming to this world for so long, this was the first time Lu Li had chatted so happily.
Lu Li even forgot the trouble brought by the Ideal Eye.
First, because Ekaterina came from a top family, her words contained a lot of valuable knowledge that could benefit Lu Li greatly.
Later, because Ekaterina was a Gym Leader Level Trainer, he was even more willing to discuss understanding the origin and comprehending laws.
And Lu Li was particularly interested in these knowledge points because of the Tropius matter.
To keep chatting with her, Lu Li even shared some of his own breeding insights.
