Stacy, Belle, Bray, the Peacock Princess and her maids, all of them stared at Austin in shock.
Austin's actions done earlier that day impressed them greatly.
Austin had wiped out a few hundred disciples from the holy lands, prominent clans and some first-class sects. Moreover, he took down two stewards of the Vasteras Holy Land who were at the Minor-perfection Realm. He even took the Spiritual Tower with him.
The Spiritual Tower had stood in the Angel City for a few hundred thousand years, and had become a famous place for cultivators to explore rare treasures and practice their skills.
But now Austin had taken it with him. He had accomplished what no one had even dreamed of.
"So, is it true that the Spiritual Tower is in your hands now, Austin?"
Belle asked as she couldn't hold back her curiosity.
"Yeah! Surprising isn't it? Well, the Spiritual Tower is actually a magic treasure, and I refined it by chance,"
Austin replied calmly.
He had no intention of telling his companions how he had gotten the tower in detail.
Every cultivator had their own secrets that they would like to keep to themselves. He was no different. There were some things which had to be hidden.
Belle didn't push him because she respected his privacy. She understood that Austin didn't want to share any further details.
Stacy, the Peacock Princess and other people also let go of the topic as they didn't want to infringe his right to privacy.
"Dude, when you could handle them on your own, why didn't you tell us?
I must have looked so foolish in front of them, to claim that I would protect you, when clearly you needed no protection. That's so embarrassing!"
Bray whined, as he looked at Austin.
Stacy, Belle, and the Peacock Princess also gazed at Austin with a hint of anger and awkwardness in their eyes.
They felt embarrassed at the thought that they had come to Austin's rescue earlier. They wouldn't have rushed if they knew he could deal with them on his own.
It was indeed a fact that Austin could deal with his enemies alone.
"Thanks all of you!"
Austin said earnestly.
'A friend in need is a friend indeed. They stood out to defend me regardless of the danger that lay ahead.
They are really my true friends, ' he thought.
"Well, I got some spiritual crystals. Perhaps you will need them," he continued.
Then he took out a heap of spiritual crystals.
Slowly he waved his sleeve and all those crystals flew towards his companions.
There were thirty thousand spiritual crystals floating in front of Stacy. The same number of spiritual crystal levitated in front of the Peacock Princess, Belle and Bray.
Ten thousand spiritual crystals floated in front of each of Peacock Princess's maids.
A thousand spiritual crystals levitated in front of each member of Stacy's crew.
'Oh my god!'
All of them held their breaths on seeing those spiritual crystals hovering above.
They were left gaping and wide-eyed.
It was widely known in the East Mainland that the most valuable item in the Spiritual Tower was the spiritual crystal.
Countless young cultivators entered the Spiritual Tower because they wanted to get spiritual crystals. They knew well that they could use them to improve their spiritual sense.
However, everyone knew that it was not easy to acquire spiritual crystals. Each time the Spiritual Tower was open to the public, even the principal disciples from the holy lands and prominent clans could hardly get two thousand to three thousand spiritual crystals even if they pulled out all stops.
But now there were hundreds of thousands of spiritual crystals in the woods, before their eyes.
The value of those spiritual crystals was incredibly high. Everyone knew that too!
"Are all these for me?" Bray asked in a shaky voice as his eyes sparkled.
He swallowed as he stared blankly at the thirty thousand spiritual crystals in front of him.
When he was on the fourth floor of the Spiritual Tower, he had only gotten more than one hundred spiritual crystals. To get hold of those, he had tried so hard and even sustained serious injuries.
And here Austin was giving him thirty thousand spiritual crystals, just like that. No wonder he was basking in excitement.
"Yeah. They're all for you. Take them.
I still have many spiritual crystals for myself,"
Austin replied with a smile.
'He's still got many for himself!'
