Before Austin came to the Martial World, this had been his pet phrase. He had made it his life's motto back then, and now it just escaped his lips.
Before leaving, Austin searched the shattered corpse of the Blood Wolf Team, and found about five thousand vital energy crystals in his pockets.
Nefariously, he thought that killing and looting was a very quick way to become wealthy, even though an indecent one.
Austin was very pleased that he had received thousands of vital energy crystals without having to do almost anything at all.
But pretty soon, his mind wandered and turned its attention in the direction of the celestial energy ginseng. He realized that this was something far more precious than any amount of vital energy crystals he could gather.
The very next instant, he disappeared using the Wind-commanding Skill. . . . .
Somewhere deep in the Grand Desolation Mountain.
The sounds of a wild struggle and the shouts of several people, as if they were chasing someone, suddenly broke the silence of the mountain forest.
A girl in a purple dress appeared between the trees, running as fast as her legs could carry her. She was about seventeen years old and looked quite pretty. However, her crystal-like eyes were made unattractive by the fact that they were filled with flutter and fear.
Behind her, a dozen men were chasing her like a lion chasing its prey. Those men were all carrying weapons, and looked vicious with anger, and there were murderous looks on all of their faces.
"Stop, you little thief! How dare you steal my thing! I am gonna tear you to pieces!"
one of them yelled loudly. He sounded way more anxious than angry though, as if the girl had taken something very important from him.
What he said added to the girl's panic and she tried her best to speed up.
"Hurry up! The thief is fast. Seize her and don't let her run away! She has my low-grade spiritual weapon! It is only a level 2 but it cost me a fucking lot of money!" one of the pursuers shouted.
"You're telling me you're making a fuss about a level 2 weapon? Hell man, mine is a fucking level 4! I will suffer a greater loss if we can't catch her!"
another one of them answered rather grumpily, huffing as they all chased her.
"Oye, you two! My situation is even worse! She stole all my cores! I risked my life and fought all those beasts this month in the Grand Desolation Mountain to get them, I should be the one complaining if we had the time! Now just shut the hell up and catch her first!". .
Hearing their voices getting closer, the girl bit her lip in horror. She was getting tired now. She had a small mouth and rosy lips, but right now they only made her face seem paler. She now understood that she was in big trouble this time.
'Damn it! How on earth do I get rid of them?'
The girl thought hard and fast, trying to maintain her now failing speed. She knew that she would certainly fall to their clutches if she failed to come up with a way to escape.
While she was thinking, suddenly, just as she turned a corner, a boy's figure came into her sight out of nowhere. He was standing under a big tree and seemed to be trying to figure out what was going on around him in surprise.
The girl hit upon an idea immediately, and she rushed to the boy's side straight away.
That boy with confusion written all over his face was no one else but Austin. He had been traveling through the forest when he had suddenly heard the voices of those men. They were running and shouting in the distance but gradually getting closer. But before he could figure anything out, a pretty and charming young girl was running towards him like an arrow.
The girl ignored Austin's curious look. She compressed her lips into a smile, but soon she couldn't help but grin, showing her white teeth. Before Austin could ask her any questions, she took a deep breath and cried out, "I've made it, brother! Please hold them off and I will run with these treasures first. Don't pull your punches, just kill them all!"
Her voice was loud enough to reach the men chasing her. It looked like the girl wasn't talking to Austin at all, but was making sure that her pursuers could hear her.
Austin frowned at once as he knew something was wrong. But before he could act, the girl rushed past him like wind. All that was left was a faint fragrance of her perfume. Damn it!
