Chapter 574 Chapter 574 Gathering Information
Our bored gamer and his sister Han Chai went to the next clothing store. What was funny in this case was how these businesses were created so close with one another.
Thus, the party of two only had to walk more than a dozen steps to get into the service of another.
Clark looked around and was already half expecting to get kicked out as soon as they entered but such a thing did not happen this time around.
"Good morning, Young Master, Young Miss!"
"How can this humble shopkeeper serve you today?" A middle aged lady greeted our protagonists warmly.
There was no aversion in her eyes and it was clear that she treated all her prospective customers equally.
The kind nature of this woman got the approval of our bored gamer of course.
"Please help me get the most beautiful dresses for my sister."
"I would also love 7 robes in the color of red. Any style would be fine."
"I\'m not that picky for myself after all." Clark said what he wanted and has absolute confidence in the lady.
"Please come with me to the dressing room, Young Miss."
"I have many superb products that would very much fit your stature and nobility." The woman praised and she was extremely good with words.
Our bored gamer knew why this middle aged lady became successful in her life.
She was quite adept in taking care of her customers as can be seen in how she treated a pair of obvious natives from the mountainsides.
More than an hour later, the siblings could be seen coming out from the store. They had an additional 5 bags on their bodies which was what they bought inside.
It did not need saying that both also changed into the usual attire of the city. Gone were the animal skin apparels and what replaced it were the elegant robes and classy garbs.
\'SHIT! I\'m such a stupid fat fool!\'
\'Those customers should have been mine!\' The owner of the nearby store wanted to cry on the spot. Alas, regrets always happened in the end and not in the beginning.

The Fearless Eagle Inn.
"I want your most expensive room. My sister and I will be staying here for 1 week." Clark said once they arrived at an inn to stay in the city.
He only paid no more than 2 gold coins earlier in the clothing store and so he knew that a gold coin\'s value was indeed very high in this city.
The two of them could absolutely stay here indefinitely if they wanted.
"Please follow me, Young Master." A beautiful girl bowed and led the siblings towards their room. They were led into the second floor of the building.
A few minutes later, Clark and Han Chai went downstairs once more but this time around, they no longer carried any bags with them.
Our bored gamer kept all his money inside the system inventory for absolute safekeeping. The native bag that he carried around was only for temporary purposes earlier.
"I want the best food. Serve us with your specialties." Clark ordered at a waitress. They had yet to eat breakfast and it was already 10 o\'clock in mid morning.
Our bored gamer was already famished right now.
"Where did you get all your money from, brother?" Han Chai whispered since she could not hold her curiosity at all.
"It came from my hidden master, Chai\'er. The one who taught me with sword skills and the art of fighting."
"He was there earlier in the marketplace. It\'s just sad that he can\'t be seen around us since it would only endanger our lives. This was why we had met in secret earlier." Our avid gamer gave a convincing lie towards his sister.
"Why haven\'t I noticed him coming for you, brother?" Han Chai asked with a surprised expression on her face.
She tried to remember what had happened in the market but she really could not discern anything out of the ordinary at all.
"Hehehe. Then it wouldn\'t be a secret meeting if you had found out about it." Clark replied cheekily and dodged any more inquiries thereafter.
"Look on the menu if you want something you want to eat, Chai\'er."
"We have money so don\'t be shy about trying new things today." Our bored gamer suggested and Han Chai did exactly what he wanted.
There were words on the menu but more than that, there were colorful illustrations of the food to be served also.
This was quite a wise remedy for customers who lacked the ability to read the texts of this civilization.
"I want this one, brother!"
"And this!" Before long, Han Chai began pointing at the delicious looking food one after another. Clark also used this time to get more information about this city.
Particularly something about the presence of cultivators here. He opened his ears to the loud banters at the nearby tables.
"I hear that the Xing and Long Clans are going to create an alliance through marriage!"
"The city officials are deliberating on putting higher tax fees in our business. This would spell doom for us!"
"My friends, let us drink until we drop! My beloved fiancee broke our engagement and she can fuck herself out on somebody else\'s cock! I don\'t care! She\'s a bitch! She\'s a fucking bitch!"
A heartbroken man said wildly but a few moments later, he sobbed like a baby in the company of his friends.
\'Hmmm... There is no useful information at all.\'
\'And here I thought that there would be a martial arts competition or something.\'
\'Or at least immortal sects announcing to recruit new disciples in this city.\'
\'But all I hear are the rubbish woes of mortal affairs.\' Clark could not help but grumble inside.
Even upon his arrival earlier, he could not see any magical beast nor cultivators traveling in flying swords.
This has given a rather negative promise on what our good gamer expected in the first place.
\'Are there cultivators in this city, Nancy?\' Our bored gamer finally used his trump card at this time.
