Yekaterina had already spoken so frankly, even a novice like Lu Li understood.
Although he cultivated immortality, the spiritual energy within him was a form of energy, detectable by many instruments.
Lu Li was annoyed by his bad luck, running into Yekaterina of all people.
"Your Eye of Ideals stems from the Power of Ideals, a gift from the Ideal Dragon to humanity. It is said that those with the Eye of Ideals are qualified to become Emissaries of Ideals," Yekaterina continued.
Hearing this, Lu Li immediately realized he was in deep trouble.
The Ideal Dragon, Zekrom, also known as the Black Dragon.
It was a true Rank 1 God, and not a weak one at that.
Considering the prestige of the mythical beasts in this world and their activity, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that whoever gains Zekrom's approval would become the King of the World.
"But compared to the Black Dragon, I still prefer twintails," Lu Li muttered inwardly.
Upon arriving at their destination, Yekaterina, with a delighted look, turned to Lu Li and said, "Now do you understand why I took a liking to you?"
Lu Li's lips twitched slightly as he nodded, feeling dejected.
"Is this kind of thing common?" Lu Li asked, raising the instrument in his hand.
"Not very common, but not exactly rare either," Yekaterina vaguely explained.
"The reason I'm telling you this is to give you this."
Yekaterina tossed a mechanical watch to Lu Li and explained, "This thing is called an Energy Barrier. It can both conceal your energy fluctuations and prevent psychic powers from hypnotizing you."
Lu Li calmly pocketed the mechanical watch.
This was a valuable item. Although he wasn't sure if she had tampered with it, he could just toss it into his spatial backpack for now and wear it only when necessary.
Seeing Lu Li accept the mechanical watch, Yekaterina urged, "Let's go."
They soon arrived at a couples' restaurant. Yekaterina sat down and picked up the menu, ordering whatever she pleased.
Sitting across from Yekaterina, Lu Li maintained a friendly yet distant smile.
Now that she knew his secret, she definitely wouldn't let him off easily.
So, Lu Li waited for Yekaterina to make her next move.
Perhaps sensing Lu Li's worries, Yekaterina took the initiative to break the ice, saying, "You don't have to worry about me using this to threaten you. If you don't want to, no one can force you."
Lu Li didn't believe a word Yekaterina said.
He was paying the price for his inexperience. He never imagined this world would have energy detectors, and even more absurdly, that he would be discovered so easily.
"I won't leave the Kyushu region."
Lu Li decisively stated his position.
In the Kyushu region, he had some ability to protect himself. If he went to the Great Russia region with Yekaterina, he would truly be meat on Yekaterina's chopping block.
"I wasn't planning on taking you away from the Kyushu region," Yekaterina rolled her eyes at Lu Li.
Although she appeared nonchalant on the surface, she was inwardly bleeding.
The Eye of Ideals!
Right in front of her, yet she couldn't take him away. What difference was there between this and a Champion-level Pokémon dangling in front of her, yet she couldn't snatch it?
Hearing this, Lu Li breathed a heavy sigh of relief, but alarm bells rang in his mind.
The reason this woman was so unconcerned was either because she had already devised a way to handle him, or some force was influencing her to abduct him.
Thinking of this, Lu Li nonchalantly asked, "Who else knows about me?"
Hearing this, Yekaterina immediately looked at Lu Li with admiration and sincerely praised, "You truly are a clever person."
"I did want to claim you as my own, but unfortunately, someone beat me to it," Yekaterina sighed.
After sighing, Yekaterina didn't forget to throw shade at her competitor, "Now you're someone else's caged bird. I can only come and tease you occasionally."
"Who is it?"
Lu Li seriously looked at Yekaterina.
Lu Li didn't think of the Yu family. The reason was simple: they weren't qualified. At least, the Yu family didn't have the power to make Yekaterina hesitant.
Yekaterina said, "You should know this person. Her name is Qu Suxin."
"Qu Suxin?"
Lu Li frowned. Among the people he had interacted with, there was definitely no one with that name.
"Qu Suxin... Qu..."
"Wait!"
Lu Li's face instantly paled. He remembered. Everything connected.
Fairy-type Heavenly King - Qu Suxin!
The newest novels are first released on
Wasn't the fairy breeding center in Nandu under that Fairy-type Heavenly King's name?
So, he was exposed at that time.
Lu Li suddenly understood.
"It seems you remembered."
Yekaterina, with her hands supporting her chin, looked at Lu Li's dawning expression with a joyful face.
Lu Li nodded with a somewhat unsightly expression and directly asked, "What does that Fairy-type Heavenly King want to do with me?"
"Observe, raise in captivity."
Naturally, Yekaterina wouldn't say anything good about Qu Suxin.
"Just observe? It seems the Eye of Ideals' power isn't enough to make those high and mighty figures lose their minds," Lu Li thought with relief.
He was indeed relieved. For him, if only Qu Suxin or Yekaterina had discovered him, it would have been a terrifying thing.
Fortunately, they both discovered him. Now, all he could do was wait for these two women to fight like snipe and clam, and then he would profit as the fisherman.
This was the most ideal outcome.
And the worst outcome was just one of them winning, and then he would have to follow one of them.
"Alright, that's about all I wanted to say. Next, let's talk about Pokémon breeding," Yekaterina said.
Hearing this, Lu Li instantly became interested.
If you want to talk about this, then I'm interested.
Next, the two of them discussed Pokémon breeding in a couples' restaurant.
There was no scheming, no conflict of interest, just two trainers discussing everything about Pokémon.
Having come to this world for so long, this was the first time Lu Li had such a pleasant conversation.
Lu Li even forgot the troubles brought by the Eye of Ideals.
Firstly, because Yekaterina came from a top family, her words contained a lot of useful information that Lu Li could benefit from.
Secondly, because Yekaterina was a Gym Leader-level trainer, he was more willing to discuss understanding the origin and comprehending the laws.
And Lu Li, because of the Tropius, was particularly interested in these knowledge points.
In order to continue the conversation, Lu Li even shared some of his own breeding insights.
