The Supreme God of Martial Arts -
Chapter 179 Mindy Asks For Help (Part Two)
Yes! Herbert is very poor and he has to borrow money from me tomake a living. Don't worry Herbert. We are buddies after all! I won't askyou to pay me back.
Hearing that, Herbert was so glad that he immediately paid Evan acompliment.
Austin gave him a glance and couldn't help shaking his head.
Herbert had obtained seven contribution credits in the Beast Mountain.If he had come to the sect and exchanged them with daily supplies, hewouldn't have had to borrow money for his meals.
It was obvious that Herbert was taking advantage of Evan's generosity.Austin knew that Herbert was a nice guy, but he was greedy when itcame to money.
Despite this little flaw, he had always been standing on the right side onmajor occasions.
For example, a few days ago, thinking that Austin had died in the GrandDesolation Mountain, Marvin had kicked Evan out from Austin'sapartment.
Although Herbert wasn't very competent, he had taken the risk ofoffending Marvin in order to take care of Evan. Sadly, this act ofkindness got him in a pickle in the end.
"Tin, can you ask Marvin to send me some vital energy crystals as well?After all, his men had given me a lot of trouble some time ago. So heshould give me some compensation too.
Since you're so powerful now, I'm sure he wouldn't dare refuse if you'llbe the one asking him. It would be a relief to make him spend moremoney!"
Herbert said, trying to encourage Austin to extort more vital energycrystals from Marvin.
Austin knew that Herbert had suffered a lot because of Evan these pastfew days, so he took out a number of vital energy crystals
and piled them up in front of Evan and Herbert.
There were thirty thousand vital energy crystals in total.
"Evan, take an additional ten thousand vital energy crystals. Herbert,take twenty thousand vital energy crystals. Now both of you havetwenty thousand vital energy crystals each. You can easily afford somestuff for cultivation practice with this much vital energy crystals.”
With that, Austin took out two small bottles, each of which containedten Energy-boosting Elixirs.
He then gave them to Evan and Herbert accordingly.
For ordinary outer disciples of Sun Sect, the Energy-boosting Elixir wasvery precious for cultivation. That was why receiving a whole bottle ofEnergy-boosting Elixirs was like a dream come true for both Evan andHerbert, who were so excited beyond their imagination. Herbertcouldn't help but shout loudly and run around like crazy in the yard."Ha-hal Ten Energy-boosting Elixirs! I have made a fortune!”"Remember not to provoke Marvin in the future. He doesn't want toconfront me right now, but that doesn't mean that he will let this slideand sit still. When he reaches a higher cultivation level, he will definitelychallenge me again.
Besides, his uncle is the steward of Sun Sect, so you can't afford tomess with him.
Don't try to get anything from him,” Austin dutifully reminded Evan andHerbert after Herbert had calmed down.
Keeping a low profile before becoming powerful enough was thephilosophy that Austin stuck to all these years. And it was also thephilosophy which he constantly lectured to Evan and Herbert.
"Tin, thirty-five outer disciples have joined us these past few days. Theywanted to see you.
And many more outer disciples have asked to join us. Your influencenow among the outer disciples is more pronounced than Marvin's.
All the outer disciples said that you could rank fifth veritably now.Someone even predicted that you would rank first again in the nearfuture.”
"Yes. Tin, you have become the center of attention of the outer disciplesrecently.
How about taking this opportunity to get more disciples to join us?Hah! If we have more disciples who would stand on our side, then wewill be the big shots among the outer disciples and we can brageverywhere," Herbert said excitedly as if he couldn't wait to expandtheir group. He would definitely look majestic if he were surrounded bya handful of disciples wherever he went.
"No!"
Austin waved his hand.
"I agreed for those disciples to join us on a whim. I have no intention ofexpanding my influence. I only wish to have someone to support us.That's all.
I must put all my efforts on practicing cultivation, so I don't really havetime to think about other matters at the moment.
You should continue to investigate the thirty-five disciples who havejoined us. Once you replace out if any of them are deceitful and have adark past, don't think twice and remove those men immediately.
I want a team that is small but strong."
After hearing what Austin said, Herbert immediately shut up. When itcame to speculations, he was probably the most questionable of all ofthem. He was worried that if he continued to talk about it, Austin mightdrive him out from the team too.
Evan knew exactly what Austin meant, so he stopped talking about thistoo.
"Okay! Well then, ask those thirty-five disciples to come here," Austinordered.
Evan and Herbert immediately run out
to inform the disciples.
Austin measured up his yard and smiled bitterly.
For the few days, he had messed up the yard while he was practicing.The plants in the yard had been sliced into pieces and were scatteredeverywhere.
Under the impact of the sword power, deep grooves appeared on theground which made it look like a field that had recently been plowedby a farmer, waiting to be sown.
It seems like I have to ask those disciples to clean the yard for me, *Austin thought.
Only during such moments, did he appreciate the benefit of havingfollowers.
"Austin, are you there?”
Suddenly, a young woman's voice rang outside.
Then a slim figure came in.
It was no other than Mindy.
Austin hadn't seen her since he came back to Sun Sect aftervanquishing the demon fox, Violet.
And he had been occupied with trivial matters since his recentpromotion to the outer disciple, so he hadn't had time to inquire abouther.
He was actually surprised that Mindy came looking for him of her ownaccord.
"Austin, the vital energy refining formula you're practicing seems to bea prime masculinity method, right?” she asked.
Austin nodded, puzzled.
"Can you do me a favor? But it might be dangerous!"
