Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

"........."

"Chi Hong, I know you're strong, but the opponent..."

"The person who came is a Phase 1 practitioner."

Flores explained with a helpless expression, "Heng is already an extremely powerful being. In the universe, he can be said to be someone who can do whatever he wants."

That can no longer be called "human"; it is simply a god in the universe.

"oh......"

"That's alright then, go ahead and meet him."

Chi Hong awkwardly touched his nose. Trying to show off to someone at the Heng stage seemed a bit premature...

"It seems that the person with the brains prioritized reporting to their superiors," Flores asked, staring at Chi Hong's face. "Are you sure that one-eyed guy witnessed everything you did?"

"I think so."

"I gazed deeply into the eyes of that one-eyed man for a while."

"So, this is definitely the enemy, right?"

Chi Hong checked again, because he already knew the other party's location and basic information. He was a very cautious person, and once he confirmed that they were an enemy, he would definitely target them.

Of course, those who are willing to walk the ball are another matter!

"It depends on what the higher-ups say. For the higher-ups, our kind of galaxy is really just a matter of a word. Remember to be polite when you see the big boss."

"Someone with his abilities might soon..."

"You're the one who ambushed and killed the employees of the Universe Bank?" Flores's voice suddenly disappeared from Chi Hong's ears for a moment, followed by a very gentle voice.

When Chi Hong turned around, he found himself sitting in a chair. He had no idea when he sat down or where he was...

"Do you even know how big of a mess you've made?"

That gentle voice reached Chi Hong's ears again. Chi Hong looked in one direction and saw a man standing by a window.

He was wearing a very luxurious-looking robe, with long hair flowing down his shoulders. He was described as a man because of his voice.

"Is this inside a spaceship?" Chi Hong looked out at the starry sky through the window.

"You figured it out?"

"This is my spaceship. It's very advanced. Even if I were to go to your home planet, that place called Blue Star, it wouldn't take long."

The man turned around, revealing an androgynous face with his eyes closed and a faint smile on his face.

"Did Flores tell you?" Chi Hong's gaze was cautious; he was now prepared to erupt into a rage.

He really disliked this feeling of being "passive".

"I know everything." The man's eyes remained slightly closed, and his voice was still so gentle.

"Obviously not," Chi Hong denied directly.

How do you know?

"If you knew everything, you wouldn't be speaking to me so openly and without any defenses."

"Are you dangerous?"

"none of your business?"

"............."

Then, there was a moment of silence between the two sides...

"Since you're already here, and you should know that the coordinates of Earth cannot be determined, you might as well stay peacefully in the Cosmic Merchant Guild."

"I will protect you."

Even though Chi Hong said something very rude like "None of your business," the man didn't get angry at all. He was very approachable and had no airs at all.

"........." Upon hearing this, Chi Hong stood up and took a few steps forward. Indeed, apart from his eyes being closed and thus unable to see, this person was exactly the same as the Earthling!

"Odd changes, even remains the same?" Chi Hong asked suspiciously.

"What do you mean?" The man's lips curled up, and although he didn't open his eyes, it was still clear that he was laughing... [louder].

"Does it mean nothing?"

"You must be the galaxy leader of that cosmic trading company?"

"I'd like to ask, what are the management's plans regarding this incident?"

Chi Hong seemed to completely disregard this man, after all, Chi Hong was a hothead who feared nothing.

"I don't intend to deal with it."

The man turned his back and looked out the window. Chi Hong followed his gaze and could confirm that the spaceship was hovering in space and had not moved.

"You're not planning to deal with it?"

"So we'll solve it ourselves?"

Chi Hong asked a question, but he didn't care whether the problem was solved or not. In any case, whether the Cosmic Chamber of Commerce intervened or not, he had to strike first.

"Yes, I won't interfere, and the other side's higher-ups won't allow it either, otherwise it would be considered a provocation."

"And here's the most important thing: in the 120 star systems under my jurisdiction, no one dares to provoke me."

The man's tone was filled with intense confidence, a kind of inexplicable confidence that Chi Hong had first sensed in the King, and as everyone knows, the King was extremely unreliable that time...

"You're in charge of 120 star systems, are you that arrogant, senior?" Chi Hong's expression changed quickly. Once he confirmed that the other party was harmless to him, and even on his side in some aspects, he immediately changed "you" to "senior".

"senior?"

"I haven't heard that title in a long time. Since you've cultivated to this level, your primordial spirit must be extremely powerful."

"It's just a pity that the path for Earthlings is that of beast tamers. I've met Earthlings from other parallel universes, and they weren't confined to the path of beast tamers."

The man continued speaking, and what he said made Chi Hong slowly freeze in shock.

"How could anyone use such an ancient term as 'primordial spirit'? And what the heck is a 'beast tamer'?"

"You know, nowadays everyone uses the term 'spiritual power,' which is also known as 'primordial spirit,' so it seems to make sense."

Then Chi Hong suddenly noticed something, and slowly turned his head in shock to look at the man...

He then realized...

Although he could understand whatever language people in the universe spoke, thanks to his abilities, he subconsciously ignored the handsome man from the beginning.

They were speaking the Chinese language!!!

"Fellow villager??!"

"Then why don't you know that odd changes and even remains the same?"

Chi Hong asked in surprise.

If he were truly a human from Earth like him, there would be no reason why he wouldn't know this meme.

"When I arrived in the universe by accident, the era was the Ming Dynasty."

How many years ago was the Ming Dynasty?

The man then asked, seemingly wanting to confirm whether Chi Hong was indeed a human from Earth.

"I don't remember exactly, but there should be something like that..."

"More than six hundred years?"

Chi Hong gave a vague number.

"Yes, if you could state it precisely, it wouldn't be authentic enough." The man nodded, took a step forward, and said softly, "My name is Wan Hu, and I am indeed a human from Earth."
