At the same time, he was also calculating the gains and losses, wondering if it was worth offending Ekaterina for a divine object.
After hesitating for a moment, Cao Tiantian made up his mind.
Compared to that divine object, what did offending an Ekaterina family matter?
Ekaterina only had Gym Leader-level strength and couldn't stop him at all. Even if she sought trouble afterward, so what?
As the saying goes, the heavens are high and the emperor is far away. Moreover, the Ekaterina family wasn't even the emperor of the Asia League.
Just as Cao Tiantian was about to say something, an indescribable fear quietly descended.
It was the pressure of a Champion-level Pokémon, a tremor from the soul.
Cao Tiantian, his body stiff, looked in horror at Ekaterina, who had a playful smile on her face.
"Damn it! She's actually a Champion..."
Realizing that the other party had a guardian Pokémon with her, Cao Tiantian could only resentfully say, "Princess Ekaterina, you can't protect him forever."
"If anything happens to him, I'll pay your family a visit," Ekaterina said coldly.
Hearing this, Cao Tiantian, exasperated, gnashed his teeth and said, "It's not just my Cao family that's targeting him."
"That's none of your concern," Ekaterina sneered.
"Young man, you'll regret this."
"The other jackals are much more greedy than I am. When the time comes, they'll want more than just your divine object," Cao Tiantian said meaningfully before turning around and slamming the door as he left.
After Cao Tiantian left, Ekaterina complained, "You really like to cause me trouble."
"I didn't expect these people to be so shameless," Lu Li said, pretending to be aggrieved.
Ekaterina asked, "Do you know anyone from the Qu family?"
Lu Li thought of Qu Zhengyi and then nodded.
"Contact her. Tell her you need the Qu family's protection, and you'll repay them in the future," Ekaterina said.
Yao Yifei's eyes flickered when he heard this, further solidifying his guess.
To verify his guess, Yao Yifei asked, "So, even if I didn't look for you, someone else would come to help?"
Ekaterina glanced at Yao Yifei in surprise, then nodded with a sneer, "That woman is waiting for Lu Li to bow his head to her."
"Are you talking about the Fairy-type Elite Four?" Yao Yifei asked in surprise.
"Who else could it be but her?" Ekaterina said with a hint of mockery on her face.
"If I hadn't intervened, the normal script would have been that you were forced to the point of despair, and then the Qu family would descend like a savior, selling you a huge favor," Ekaterina said meaningfully, looking at Lu Li.
Lu Li: "..."
There was a scheme from the Qu family behind this, or rather, a scheme from that Fairy-type Elite Four.
However, Lu Li didn't dislike this kind of scheme too much.
First of all, he did get benefits from this scheme.
If it weren't for the Fairy-type Elite Four pushing things along, then the compensation he received this time would probably just be a Pokémon secret treasure.
That would be a huge favor.
The second huge favor disappeared because of Ekaterina's appearance.
That was a good thing.
That Fairy-type Elite Four had already taken him, the fake reserve Ideal Hero, as the real deal. In order to win him over, that Fairy-type Elite Four had indeed put in some effort.
Lu Li asked worriedly, "Won't she retaliate against you?"
"Don't worry, even if that old woman is unhappy, she can't do anything to me," Ekaterina comforted.
Hearing this, Lu Li nodded.
"But what divine object did you take? It's actually making the Elite Four family risk so much to snatch it," Ekaterina asked curiously.
Lu Li didn't hide anything. After all, there were definitely quite a few people who knew about this, so telling Ekaterina wouldn't matter.
Lu Li said, "Landorus's divine object."
Hearing this, Ekaterina revealed a look of understanding.
"If it's related to Landorus's divine object, then that explains it. But don't be happy too soon, this matter isn't over yet."
Lu Li certainly knew that this matter wasn't over yet. After all, Ekaterina could only drive away Cao Tiantian, but she couldn't drive away the jackals hiding in the dark.
Ekaterina comforted again, "But with Yao Yifei protecting you, you shouldn't be in danger for the time being."
This wasn't entirely comforting Lu Li. The Kyushu region was different from other regions. This region could be said to be the most orderly place in the world.
In the Kyushu region, although the League couldn't be said to be able to monitor every Elite Four 100%, they could at least determine the approximate itinerary of each Elite Four.
Because the significance of the Elite Four was too extraordinary, it was comparable to city-destroying power. Even the Elite Four family couldn't send out an Elite Four to assassinate Lu Li or snatch the divine object.
And Yao Yifei was also a top-tier existence among Gym Leaders. Ekaterina believed that with Yao Yifei's protection, Lu Li's safety should be guaranteed.
Lu Li asked curiously, "By the way, have you gotten any results from investigating Ho-Oh's matter?"
"It's true, Ho-Oh has indeed appeared in the world," Ekaterina said with a gloomy expression.
Ho-Oh had only appeared during the Second Era. According to legend, Ho-Oh was a benevolent god to humans, and the Rainbow Hero He chose brought humanity from ignorance into civilization.
The first unified empire in human history was created by that Rainbow Hero.
Yes, someone once ruled the entire world, and there was more than one.
Although that kind of rule wasn't centralized enough, it was at least unified in name.
This was also why there was only one language and script in the world.
Yao Yifei asked further, "What about the Rainbow Hero? Has the Rainbow Hero been born?"
Ekaterina nodded, "If there are no accidents, it should have been born. Ho-Oh has already bestowed the Rainbow Wing."
Ekaterina comforted again, "Next, I'll stay in Nandu until the High School Entrance Examination Tournament ends."
Hearing this, Lu Li asked in surprise, "Aren't you looking for that egg anymore?"
"I'm not looking for it anymore. That thing depends on fate," Ekaterina shook her head.
After pausing for a moment, Ekaterina explained, "Moreover, I suspect that egg may be prepared for the Rainbow Hero, because the family's prophetic Pokémon once said that the egg must be hatched in the right person's hands."
Lu Li's heart tightened.
Ekaterina hadn't said it, but he was even more worried now.
It should be known that Ho-Oh also oversees fate. Ekaterina's statement was based on evidence, and from his perspective as a transmigrator, this possibility was quite high.
Because that egg might indeed need the Rainbow Wing to awaken, because the Rainbow Wing was originally a divine object representing rebirth.
Lu Li decided to look for the traces of the Unown after the High School Entrance Examination and try to spiritualize the inscriptions of the Immortal Cultivation world as much as possible.
The situation he was facing now was equivalent to having a yellow-haired boy eyeing his own cabbage.
If he didn't want to be intercepted, he had to speed up the progress.
If it weren't for the fact that the Champion was a Pseudo-Legendary, Lu Li wouldn't even want to participate in the League Finals.
After hearing that Ekaterina would stay here for a while, Yao Yifei also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With Ekaterina here, it should be possible to deter many coveters.
The ringtone of the phone suddenly rang.
Looking down at the name of the caller ID, Lu Li smiled wryly.
This Aunt Feng Jiao was really hard to describe in a word.
Lu Li, who was complaining incessantly in his heart, still pressed the answer button.
"Xiao Li, how's the divine object selection going?" Jin Fengjiao's ingratiating voice came from the phone.
The strength of a family can be seen from the intelligence aspect.
Like those who came directly to him, those were the real behemoths, the standard Elite Four families.
People like Jin Fengjiao could only be considered local snakes in small cities, and they were hundreds of thousands of miles behind those old families in terms of intelligence.
Lu Li pretended to be embarrassed and apologized, "Aunt Fengjiao, I'm sorry, there is no Steel-type divine object in the League treasure house."
Jin Fengjiao sighed, "Ah! Is there really none?"
Jin Fengjiao asked again, "Then what divine object did you choose? Water-type?"
Lu Li shook his head decisively, "No."
What's Newest⊥⊥Novel⊥In⊥Six⊥9⊥⊥Book⊥⊥Bar⊥⊥First⊥Release!
"Then what is it?" Jin Fengjiao asked in confusion.
Lu Li: "Ground-type and Flying-type."
"Ground-type and Flying-type?" Jin Fengjiao muttered to herself in confusion, then looked at Yu Zhonggang opposite her with a look of help.
This had already involved her blind spot of knowledge. How could Jin Fengjiao, who wasn't even a trainer, understand the attributes of those mythical beasts?
"Ground-type and Flying-type..."
Yu Zhonggang frowned thoughtfully.
Ground-type and Flying-type were mutually inverse attributes. There was only one Pokémon with this attribute configuration, and that was Gligar and its evolved form, Gliscor.
And among the mythical beasts with this noble configuration, there was only one, and that was the Pokémon that was said to bring harvest to the earth—Landorus.
If it was Landorus...
A flash of greed flashed in Yu Zhonggang's eyes.
This divine object was of extraordinary significance to a family, and the divine object left by Landorus was indeed very helpful to Lili.
For example, Swampert and Gyarados, these two were both signature Water-type Pokémon, and they were both very powerful and potential Pokémon.
It was worth mentioning that Landorus's creature was still an artifact for farming. If Lu Li could really marry into their Yu family...
Thinking of this, Yu Zhonggang quickly gave Jin Fengjiao a look.
Jin Fengjiao, who understood in seconds, quickly asked with concern, "Is it safe there for you? Do you want Auntie to ask Uncle to come and help?"
Lu Li replied innocently, "It's quite safe. Gym Leader Yao Yifei is now my guardian. He is very willing to help, and I also have friendship with Miss Ekaterina, who is also by my side now."
Jin Fengjiao: "..."
Yu Zhonggang's face was also gloomy.
Yao Yifei was okay, but Ekaterina was the real trouble.
"Then Auntie is relieved. Come back quickly after the game. It's not safe to take the divine object outside," Jin Fengjiao instructed worriedly.
"Okay! Don't worry, Aunt Fengjiao, I will pay attention to safety," Lu Li said and hung up the phone.
…………
Yu Zhonggang looked at his wife in depression and complained, "You shouldn't have pushed that kid Lu Li to Ekaterina's side. Now it's good, we didn't get the Champion-level qualified Pokémon egg, but we lost a divine object."
"I didn't expect that kid Lu Li to be so competitive. If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to the trouble," Jin Fengjiao was also very depressed.
If she had known that Lu Li had the opportunity to get the divine object, she wouldn't have pushed Lu Li out.
This can only be said that man proposes, God disposes. Who would have thought that a new trainer could enter the League treasure house, and could also choose the divine object.
If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place!
Both of them regretted it in their hearts.
Lu Li was actually quite good, but they wanted more, and as a result, they didn't get anything now.
Jin Fengjiao said in depression, "Now I can only hope that that kid won't leave with Ekaterina. As long as he is willing to stay in the Kyushu League, Lili may still have a chance."
"Alas!"
After sighing, Yu Zhonggang got up and left home, and then went to the breeding house in the suburbs.
Compared to complaining, he needed comfort now.
He certainly couldn't get comfort from Jin Fengjiao.
…………
Seeing Lu Li hang up the phone, Ekaterina sneered, "It's really interesting."
She didn't think the Yu family was a threat. Lu Li's future only had the following choices.
Either marry into the Qu family, or marry into their Ekaterina family.
This was Lu Li's lower limit.
Generally speaking, it was to marry her, or marry a daughter of the Qu family.
As for the upper limit?
The emperor can have three palaces and six courtyards.
Lu Li touched his nose awkwardly. It was actually quite embarrassing to meet a prospective mother-in-law like Jin Fengjiao.
After sending away Ekaterina and Yao Yifei, Lu Li opened the box and took out the divine object inside.
The constantly spewing Ground and Flying attribute energy, as well as the restrained life energy.
Lu Li quickly sat down cross-legged.
After a moment, Lu Li opened his eyes.
The speed of cultivation has indeed accelerated, and it has accelerated a lot.
The current cultivation speed is about twice the previous speed.
Thinking of this, Lu Li took off the necklace. Lu always could clearly feel that the quality of this blue gemstone was significantly higher than the piece of wood in his left hand, and it was not just a little higher, but much higher.
A general attribute mythical beast, a first-level god range, plus the shape of this deep blue gemstone, the owner of this divine object must be Terapagos.
The probability is as high as 90%. The reason why it cannot be 100% certain is because some divine objects are deliberately condensed by mythical beasts, and the appearance is almost any type.
For example, Entei's scales, you must know that Entei is fluffy.
"So is it you? Terapagos?" Lu Li whispered.
If his guess was true, then the secret realm in the Qingyun Mountains was worth pondering.
It should be known that this world has not yet discovered Paradox Pokémon. According to the rules of this world, if Paradox Pokémon are considered mythical beasts, then the danger level of that secret realm must be infinitely elevated.
And even if some of the Paradox Pokémon are not considered mythical beasts, they are equally terrifying.
Because there are five Paradox Pokémon that are considered mythical beasts in the game, and this does not include Koraidon and Miraidon.
Thinking of this, Lu Li suddenly realized what kind of treasure trove he had in his hands?
If that secret realm really has Paradox Pokémon...
Lu Li's heart raced as he gripped the deep blue gem tightly. "So, this is the future!"
