"Wanyue City?"
Shushu was still tucked into Lu Li's clothes. At this moment, its paws were tugging at Lu Li's clothes, and its little head was peeking out. Looking at the three big characters on the city gate, it unconsciously read them out.
"Yes, Wanyue City is our sect's city."
Lu Li was not surprised that Shushu could read. After hearing her accurately pronounce the name of Wanyue City, he took the opportunity to tell her about Wanyue City.
Originally, Wanyue City wasn't called Wanyue City. It wasn't even a city; it was just a very small village with few people, no powerful figures, and was often disturbed by spirit beasts.
When Liu Yu established his sect not far away, the people of this small village immediately sought refuge with the Liu Yue Sect. From then on, they were protected by the Liu Yue Sect and gained a chance to catch their breath and develop.
Later, the Liuyue Sect gradually emerged and gained a foothold in the Yulin Continent, successfully becoming one of the four major sects. Slowly, more and more people came to settle in this village.
To facilitate management and to have a window to the outside world, Liu Yu simply took over the village, built a city there, named it Wanyue City, and incorporated it into the Liuyue Sect.
Currently, the affairs of Wanyue City are all managed by the sect disciples.
Moreover, the Liuyue Sect also opened inns, restaurants, alchemy shops, talisman and array plate shops, and all kinds of other shops in the city.
Some capable disciples from sects would also rent a shop in Wanyue City to sell the things they had refined.
Liu Yu did not directly drive away the original inhabitants of Wanyue City. Instead, he brought them all under the jurisdiction of Wanyue City. As long as they did not do anything to harm the Liuyue Sect, the Liuyue Sect would protect them.
With the development of Wanyue City, and the presence of the Liuyue Sect, many other forces have also opened shops in Wanyue City. Today, Wanyue City is a very mature city.
Like all cities in the cultivation world, an entrance fee is required to enter the city. This is because all cities are equipped with protective arrays, and the entrance fee is collected to maintain these protective arrays.
Of course, in the event of an emergency, the city also needs to protect everyone and provide them with a safe haven.
Outsiders have to pay an entry fee to enter the city, but as members of the Liuyue Sect, they naturally do not need to pay an entry fee.
After all, these are all their own businesses, so this is an exception, and it's the same in other sects as well.
As the chief disciple of the Liuyue Sect, Lu Li didn't need to show his identity token. His face and the robes of a personal disciple were enough to prove his identity and open doors of convenience for him.
Soon, the two siblings entered Wanyue City.
Upon entering the city, Shushu felt like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, overwhelmed by the sights and sounds.
Unlike the sparsely populated Liuyue Sect, which is mostly inhabited by spirit beasts, the streets here are bustling with people. There are independent cultivators, sect disciples in casual clothes, and many disciples from other sects.
However, the crowds were all somewhat similar. At first glance, they were indeed novel, but after looking at several streets, the enthusiasm waned.
Seeing this, Lu Li stopped browsing and took her directly to the Treasure Pavilion to buy her things, which was also his main destination for this trip.
Duobao Pavilion is a five-story building, considered one of the taller buildings in Wanyue City. Its exterior is glittering with gold, and once you step inside, you'll find that it's even more magnificent.
Moreover, this treasure pavilion is clearly a spatial magical artifact. It doesn't look big from the outside, but it is very spacious inside.
Upon entering the first floor, what greets you is a variety of clothing and accessories, neatly arranged, creating a spectacular scene.
Especially the female cultivators' clothing, there were so many styles that even Shushu's eyes couldn't take them all in.
There were quite a few people, some accompanied by female cultivators, and some alone; some male cultivators accompanied female cultivators; and of course, some male cultivators came in groups or alone.
However, the number of female cultivators is clearly greater than the number of male cultivators.
Sure enough, no matter the dynasty or the world, female cultivators always find it easier to earn money than men, especially when it comes to clothing.
Lu Li clearly disliked being crowded with everyone, so he immediately revealed his identity upon entering. He was then led upstairs to a private room by a female cultivator who looked like a female manager.
It was only when Shushu went upstairs that she discovered that the first floor contained ordinary clothes and dresses, while the second and third floors were filled with all kinds of magical robes and fairy dresses of different styles, in such large quantities that it was astonishing.
At this moment, even Shushu couldn't help but wonder: With the existence of Duobaoge, is there any chance for other small clothing stores to survive?
However, after she saw the prices of these items, she realized that she had been overthinking it.
Duobaoge is clearly positioned as a high-end brand, with prices significantly different from those affordable shops outside.
Since they cater to different customer groups from different social classes, it doesn't have much of an impact.
Upon arriving at the private room, Shushu was still marveling at the VIP-like service he received as soon as he arrived, while Lu Li had already explained his needs to the female manager.
Before Shushu could even react, a whole bunch of custom-made outfits had already been made for him, along with a lot of accessories.
Moreover, both the clothes and accessories have a changeable attribute, and their size can change according to changes in body shape.
It wasn't until Lu Li was about to pay the deposit that Shushu realized those were for him. He quickly reached out and grabbed Lu Li's hand, trying to persuade him to calm down.
The truth is, Lu Li has ordered a lot of clothes. Even if she wears one and throws it away, she can wear them for a very long time. She might not even be able to finish wearing them all by the time she successfully transforms into human form.
Moreover, regarding the custom-made jewelry for a mouse, Shushu, as the mouse involved, felt that it was really unnecessary.
Have you ever seen a hamster wearing a hairpin or other small headdress? That's unheard of!
In the end, despite Shushu's tantrum, Lu Li only managed to reduce the number of small hairpins and headdresses he ordered; he didn't cut any clothes.
Not only did he not reduce the amount, but he also changed his mind and ordered various styles of collars and bells for Shushu, saying that girls must dress up beautifully.
At this moment, Shushu even wondered if Lu Li was a seasoned fan of the dress-up game "Nikki".
Now, Shushu had truly witnessed the wealth of his senior brother; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was the richest man in the Yulin Continent.
Because of this large expense at Duobaoge, Lu Li took Shushu to other shops afterwards.
Shushu kept a tight rein on things, preventing Lu Li from having any more opportunities to squander money or waste it.
Seeing Shushu's resolute expression, Lu Li had no choice but to suspend his shopping spree and take her to the restaurant.
As for the items in the pet-raising guide, I'll just buy them secretly later.
Shushu, who thought she had finally persuaded Lu Li, had no idea that her senior brother had this idea in mind.
Right now, she was glaring fiercely at the person standing in front of them with a blissful expression.
