Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 461 A Day Trip to the Extreme Ice Empire

Talebagos knew this too, which was why he was cursing and swearing.

The numerical monster Wujitana has always been a bug, and what Lu Li said in the conference room before was true.

Without using the power of the rules, at least ten first-level gods would be needed to defeat Wujitana. Using the rules might reduce the number, but the world would still be doomed.

It's impossible for Eternatus to fight them in the secret realm. Although Eternatus is quite greedy, it doesn't mean he's stupid.

…………

Yao Yifei gently straightened Lu Li's collar, then softly advised, "Be careful when you're out and about, don't be fooled."

She wasn't afraid that Lu Li might encounter any danger while traveling, after all, his strength was undeniable.

But being strong doesn't mean he won't be deceived.

Killing someone is not as terrifying as destroying their spirit.

"Don't worry, I'm 18 years old now, not a 17-year-old kid anymore," Lu Li teased.

"You're so unserious." Yao Yifei gently patted Lu Li's chest.

After bidding farewell to Yao Yifei, Lu Li had the Star Spirit take him to the border of the Kyushu Alliance.

Since they were all preparing to go to the European Union, Lu Li decided to enter the European continent directly from the Extreme Ice Empire.

Upon learning that Lu Li was coming to the Extreme Ice Empire, an extremely excited Ekaterina immediately led a group of people to wait for him at the border, and in a very grand manner.

Lu Li is quite well-known within the inner circle of power in the Extreme Ice Empire.

The only known god-level trainer in the Pokémon world, the only trainer in human history capable of controlling two gods, and the youngest master-level trainer, breeder, and grower in history...

Even if Lu Li wasn't a god-level trainer, his skills alone were enough to win the approval of the entire Ekaterina family.

Most importantly, Lu Li is only eighteen years old this year.

As we all know, trainers experience a rapid growth phase between levels 16 and 35, meaning that Lu Li has only just entered this phase.

His future pinnacle is guaranteed to be at least a Master-level Trainer.

A master-level trainer! Throughout the entire Ekaterina family, only the first Ekaterina has reached this level.

To demonstrate the importance and respect the Catherine family placed on Lu Li, Catherine brought almost all of the high-ranking officials of the Extreme Ice Empire with her.

Lu Li was also caught off guard by such a solemn welcome.

"There's really no need for that!" Lu Li sighed inwardly.

He doesn't like crowds, and he especially dislikes the crowds of high society because he finds them too hypocritical.

Lu Li called out to Ekaterina, who was dressed in military uniform, "Long time no see, Sister Ye."

Ekaterina sighed with a complex expression, "It's only been a few months since we last met, and you've already broken through to the Master level."

"Luck, it mainly depends on luck," Lu Li replied modestly.

In fact, he wasn't being modest. If the Sun and Moon Clan hadn't acted as his benefactors, he would at most be a champion-level player now, and it would take him at least two or three years to break through to the God Realm.

“Excessive modesty is a bit hypocritical,” Ekaterina retorted.

If you rely on luck, then what do the rest of us rely on? Our connections?

"Alright, let's talk about personal matters later. Let me introduce you." Ekaterina naturally took Lu Li's hand and then introduced him to her elders and subordinates one by one.

“This is my mother, Elena, Ekaterina.” Ekaterina introduced her mother first.

Normally, the Catherine Dynasty did not have surnames in the modern sense. The reason why Catherine was called Catherine was because she was the first empress of the Arctic Empire.

Therefore, the Catherine family has always used this name as a tradition. Every generation of Catherine's family is called Catherine. For example, Catherine's mother was also called Catherine before she abdicated.

Now that she has abdicated, she has resumed her original name, Elena.

"Is this my future mother-in-law?" Lu Li carefully examined the old woman in front of him.

She was fair-skinned and chubby, rather short, and Elena looked quite kind and approachable, not at all like someone who had been the head of a household.

Looking at the tall and slender Ekaterina, Lu Li began to suspect that Ekaterina was adopted.

Elena had her daughter late in life; she was almost 50 when she gave birth to Catherine, who had several older brothers and sisters.

The reason why Catherine, the youngest of the three, was able to become the empress of the Arctic Empire was mainly due to her talent and ability.

Yes, it's mainly about talent.

In fact, Ekaterina did not disappoint her family's expectations. Compared to talent and ability, her luck was the strongest.

This is a consensus held by the entire Catherine family.

Because Ekaterina only went abroad once, she met the only God Trainer in the world, namely Lu Li.

Even Elena, as a mother, envied her daughter Ekaterina.

It's said that Ekaterina used up all her luck in life by meeting Lu Li, and that's certainly true.

Elena treated this wealthy husband exceptionally well, almost as well as Jin Fengjiao.

The only difference was that Elena didn't act arrogant at first and then become obsequious; when they first met, Elena showed her kindness and friendliness.

Under Ekaterina's guidance, Lu Li got to know most of the high-ranking officials of the Extreme Ice Empire, especially several key figures in Ekaterina's family.

After receiving Lu Li, Ekaterina couldn't wait to show him around her palace.

Lu Li, who wasn't in a hurry, was also happy to visit the palace, which had a strong exotic flavor.

"By the way, Lu Li, what are you going to Europe for?" Ekaterina asked curiously.

"You didn't know?" Lu Li looked at Ekaterina with some surprise.

Ekaterina looked completely bewildered.

Land from:"……"

"I remember you and Sister Qu had a pretty good relationship, right?" Lu Li asked, puzzled.

“Okay?” Ekaterina looked at Lu Li with a puzzled expression, then said, “That depends on how you define it.”

Lu Li: "What do you mean?"

“I’ve only met him a few times. At first, we were competitors, but later we were a mix of competition and cooperation. What do you think of our relationship?” Ekaterina asked in return.

Lu Li: "Plastic sisterhood?"

“That’s a good word, and it’s quite apt,” Ekaterina nodded.

Lu Li also understood why Qu Suxin hadn't told Ekaterina about what happened at the Supreme Conference.

"Is such that……"

Lu Li told the other party that Wujitana was about to awaken and plunder all the energy in the world.

After hearing this, Ekaterina's expression became extremely solemn.

She completely trusted Lu Li.

With a serious expression, Ekaterina said, "Little Pudding, I may have to leave for a while."

Lu Li nodded, indicating his understanding.

This is like having the Sword of Damocles hanging over your head; nobody knows when it will fall.

In situations like this, the only thing to do is to prepare in advance, to act quickly and decisively, since the timing of the sword's fall is uncertain.

It could be the next second or it could be a year from now, but who dares to gamble on something like that?
Although Catherine had left, she still had her maids show Lu Li around the palace. "Your Highness, I am Natasha, the head maid. I will now guide you on a tour of your palace," Natasha said respectfully.

Those who can serve as maids in the palace must have incredibly good looks and figures.

"Just take me where I can go, so you won't be punished later," Lu Li said with a smile.

When there is no conflict of interest, Lu Li is happy to share goodwill with those around him.

Natasha retorted earnestly, "Your Highness, you misunderstand. Here, and even in the entire Frost Empire, there is no place you cannot go; there is only places you do not want to go."

Natasha looked serious, and didn't seem to be joking.

Lu Li, his mischievous side kicking in, teased, "Then take me to see the Imperial Treasury?"

Natasha countered, "Which treasure vault do you wish to visit?"

Land from:"???"

Seeing that Natasha didn't seem to be joking, Lu Li also got a little carried away.

So he said directly, "Of course, it's the most precious treasure vault."

“Then please follow me.” Natasha said, leading the way and explaining as they walked, “The Empire’s most precious treasure trove is not in the real world, but in the secret realm.”

"Well, I was just kidding, we won't be going to the treasure vault." Now it was Lu Li's turn to feel embarrassed.

To head straight for someone's treasure trove on your first visit is rather unseemly.

Natasha remained noncommittal, then asked cooperatively, "Where would you like to go next? Or shall I show you around some more?"

"Take me around some more," Lu Li said.

Natasha nodded and continued to lead the way.

Comparing it to its previous life, the location of the Arctic Empire is exactly the same as that of the Great Mao, the difference being that the Arctic Empire is larger.

It's not that the Arctic Empire in this world is more powerful; it's simply because Earth is larger than Earth in my previous life.

The palace is very large; if you wanted to see every part of it, you wouldn't be able to finish in a day and a night.

So Natasha only took Lu Li to a few scenic spots.

Meanwhile, in the palace's meeting hall.

Catherine immediately convened an imperial council.

"This is the information Lu Li told me. The Kyushu Alliance already knew about it in advance, and the other alliances probably know it too." After Ekaterina finished speaking, she quietly looked at everyone in the conference room.

She is still relatively young, and her focus during her term in office will primarily be on learning.

“Let’s prepare in advance. If anything changes in the real world, the Empire will lead its people into the secret realm,” Elena suggested first.

Everyone in the conference room nodded in unison. Despite the impending doomsday crisis, the atmosphere in the conference room remained the same as before.

Ekaterina posed the question, Elena from the previous generation of the family provided the solution, and then the others, acting as nodding robots, expressed their agreement.

“Let’s not go to the super-large secret realm. According to Lu Li, the super-large secret realm is definitely Wujitana’s second target,” Ekaterina added.

The people in the meeting room nodded in approval once again.

"That's settled then, I have to go now." After saying that, Ekaterina left the conference room.

No one in the meeting room said anything about Ekaterina's rude behavior.

After all, they were going to accompany Lu Li, so how could they dare to have any objections?

Elena watched her daughter's departing figure with a smile.

"The power of dragons, the power of truth, the power of a thousand faces, the power of eternal life, the power of the future, the power of victory, the past..."

Elena was extremely satisfied with Lu Li as her son-in-law; with so much power gathered in one person, he was practically a treasure trove of superpowers.

It would be perfect if Ekaterina's future child could inherit half of Lu Li's abilities. Even if they were unlucky and only inherited one ability, that would still be a great thing.

As for Lu Li already having a wife?

Isn't this something we can strive for? Even if we can't, becoming the second or third wife is fine. If all else fails, even being a mistress is acceptable.

It's no exaggeration to say that the number of people in the world willing to be Lu Li's mistress could probably stretch from the Kyushu Alliance to the America Alliance.

“Let’s discuss the issue of relocating the people to the secret realm,” Yelena suggested.

This time, instead of everyone nodding in agreement, the people in the meeting room began to discuss it.

Hearing the discussions in the conference room, Ekaterina walked even faster.

After reuniting with Lu Li, Natasha, the tool maid, took her leave.

As night fell, the royal family of the Arctic Empire held its largest banquet to date.

Unable to refuse the warm hospitality, Lu Li drank quite a bit of alcohol at the banquet.

However, as a cultivator, alcohol is just like ordinary water to Lu Li. He doesn't even need to go to the toilet when he drinks too much, as the alcohol is directly refined in his stomach.

So Lu Li got almost 90% of the men at the banquet drunk.

Catherine was also drunk.

Catherine, her face flushed, clung tightly to Lu Li, refusing to let go, even the maids beside her couldn't pull her away.

Finally, with no other choice, Lu Li could only carry Ekaterina away from the banquet.

Lu Li's actions did not escape the notice of the others at the banquet.

Elena and the other elderly people who hadn't been drinking smiled knowingly.

"A toast to the Empire," said an elderly man with white hair, raising his wine glass.

Elena smiled and clinked glasses with the old man, saying, "To the Empire."

A moment later, a maid ran in and whispered something in Elena's ear.

After listening to the maid's report, Elena asked softly, "Is the secret medicine ready?"

The maid nodded: "The Queen has already drunk it."

"That's good. Be vigilant today and absolutely do not let anyone disturb the Queen," Elena instructed.

The maid acknowledged her order and took her leave, while Elena continued chatting with the other elderly people at the banquet.

Everyone understood the unspoken agreement, since both of the main figures at the banquet had already taken their leave.

But the play must continue, for fear that the protagonist has already departed.

Lu Li looked helplessly at Ekaterina beneath him.

How could Ekaterina, a Russian woman, possibly pass out after just two drinks?

And it was red wine!

Lu Li remembered that the last time this woman drank was vodka. At that time, he was only in the Qi Refining stage and he almost couldn't drink it.

"Sister Ye, your acting is so fake," Lu Li said with a wicked smile as he leaned down.

"Stop talking and kiss me!"

Ekaterina wrapped her arms around the back of Lu Li's neck and pulled him down.
