Chapter 180: Chapter 179 Young Master

Davis naturally wanted to take rest now that he knew he wouldn't be able to find a young master in this place.

Even if he found one, it might be useless to him as that young master might hail from a Low-Grade Clan or Family.

That said, after entering his room he rested for a few minutes before slowly spreading out his soul sense.

His soul spread out, completely enveloping the border town.

Tons of information, images, the scenery were being processed in his mind as he listened and concentrated on many conversations.

He came to know that this town was named as Elmer Town, one that had a Town Lord who was a Body Transformation Stage Cultivator, the Fourth Stage of Essence Gathering Cultivation.

He saw two young master-like figures squabbling with each other, plenty of fights, nightly affairs and even assassinations.

He retrieved his soul sense and took a deep breath.

At first glance, this town seemed rather peaceful but now he understood there were many undercurrents just as any place where experts were present.

"A year... I'll finish the challenge he gave me in a year and leave the mercenaries..." Davis uttered as he contemplated and made his decision.

If he wanted to become stronger soon, then it will be better if he plays solo in the near future.

At least, that's the conclusion he had reached from staying for a few days in the Cloud Spring Mercenaries.

Even though the people there seemed nice and friendly, the leader seemed to be too suspicious of him.

He knew it was perfectly alright for the leader to be suspicious of him and it would get better as he proved his innocence but he had no such thoughts.

All because it seemed like a tedious task.

So he just decided to leave after getting the rewards which he would only gain after getting enough Cloud Spring points.

With this, they would both gain, not leading to a loss with the decision he had taken.

He extended his soul again, curious to learn about the common sense of this town.

There were only a few conversations that peeked his interests but most of them were full of adult conversations.

He filtered those out with his control and listened to multiple conversations at the same time.

"I heard that the twentieth princess of the Loseris Kingdom has been married off to the second prince of the Feloer Kingdom to be his concubine. Why would they do that?" A middle-aged woman who looked beautiful questioned while her brows were frowning faintly.

"Don't you know? I heard that she was violated by the second prince during the banquet half a year ago. Being the lecherous and cunning man he is, he must've held some dirt on the Loseris Kingdom making them obediently compromise. Otherwise, do you think that he will dare to be this presumptuous?!" Another middle-aged man who looked quite handsome said with a sneer on his face.

"Sigh, poor princess. We woman have it hard..." Then the woman shook her head.

The man raised his brows and uttered, "Huh... You could say that..."

"What? You don't agree?!" She narrowed her eyes and questioned as she glared.

The middle-aged man gulped before saying, "It's not like that. I do agree that woman have it hard here but that applies the same to the men."

"Oh... care to explain?" She had a 'enlighten me' expression on her face.

The man tidied his clothes and uttered a single name, "Empress Ariana..."

"..." The woman went silent all of a sudden.

"Hmm? Empress Ariana? Who is it?" Davis muttered as he eavesdropped on their conversation.

He wanted to know more so he continued listening to them, but after that name was mentioned they never neared that topic again.

Davis waited for the man to bring it up again but the atmosphere slightly went ambiguous before they started engaging in nightly affairs.

He sighed and filtered them out of his soul sense, searching for other interesting information.

He gained some knowledge of illustrious characters as well as some characters who had an extremely bad reputation, but the discussions were not too many as it was night time.

Most of them cultivated while others engaged in nightly affairs while some others did both. Only a few were engaged in conversations at this time.

He retrieved his soul sense back and laid down on the bed.

With all the information he got, he rather felt either disgusted or admiration for some characters.

"Well, who am I to judge?" He laughed and closed his eyes as he slept.

He knew that eavesdropping was an immoral act but he needed information so he couldn't care less about it as long as it didn't harm anyone.

In his mind, he only marked eavesdropping as a slightly immoral act. After all, without hearing some information in certain situations, he's the one who's going to get screwed over mercilessly.

...

The next day morning.

When he woke up, he immediately extended his soul sense again.

As he expected, he was able to gain a lot of information by hearing some conversations from the patrol guards who were falling asleep while guarding yesterday night.

As he listened for a while, his eyes lit up as he got what he needed.

"Keep your eyes open! We've got information that Young Master Jackson Lars is on his way to the Desolate Plains to hunt magical beasts. Don't do something to incur his displeasure lest you face a calamity!" A head guard warned his subordinates as he went to do something.

"Yes!" Came the reply from the guards as they started whispering to each other after the head guard left.

"Isn't Young Master Jackson from the Lars Family of the Loseris Kingdom Capital?" A young guard asked with a confused expression on his face.

Another guard who looked experienced and wise, replied, "Yes, they were not part of the capital five years ago, but after Young Master Jackson secured the affection of Miss Katrine from the Blackwell Family, he was able to migrate his family into the capital."
