Sensing that mockery in the disciple at the Medicine Hall, Austin thought that it was useless to argue with him.
Instead of talking to him, he just wanted to show him what he got.
Austin put his one hand into his pocket and meditated. Shortly after, he took out three hundred vital energy crystals from his secret Space Ring and threw them on the counter.
The disciple in the Medicine Hall was dumbfounded. He looked at the bright vital energy crystals and couldn't believe that a grunt disciple could just take them out conveniently.
At Sun Sect, the outer disciple could only earn twenty vital energy crystals a month.
Even if the outer disciple saved his earnings of whole year, he couldn't just take out three hundred vital energy crystals.
It appeared to him that this grunt disciple was from a rich family.
Even Evan couldn't believe when he saw Austin threw so many vital energy crystals at the disciple. He wondered where Austin could have gotten that fortune.
The expression of the disciple at the Medicine Hall had lightened a little at the sight of the vital energy crystals. Without further ado, he took out a dark red elixir and put it on the counter.
"This is the Energy-recovering Elixir and it costs three hundred vital energy crystals. If he takes the elixir, his minor wounds will surely be cured," the disciple said politely. He no longer gave them the cold shoulder. All he was after was to make a sale.
When presented with the Energy-recovering Elixir, Austin's heart jumped for joy.
It was the most effective remedy to ordinary body injuries including traumatic and internal injury.
Other than its healing powers, this elixir would help the warrior recover the vital energy during the healing process.
With its benefits, the Energy-recovering Elixir was a healing panacea that all warriors dreamed of acquiring.
Austin took the Energy-recovering Elixir and grabbed Evan out of the Medicine Hall.
As they were about to step out of the Medicine Hall, Austin suddenly stopped and walked back to the counter.
The disciple in the Medicine Hall hadn't put away the vital energy crystals from the counter yet when Austin picked up ten from them and said, "I believe I made a mistake. I just gave you ten extra vital energy crystals. As you know, these ten crystals are already a big fortune for a grunt disciple like me, so I hope you won't mind me taking them back!"
He smiled slyly at the disciple in the Medicine Hall then bid goodbye before finally leaving.
The disciple in the Medicine Hall counted the vital energy crystals on the counter just now and knew that Austin had originally given him ten extra crystals. If Austin hadn't remembered it, he could have kept the extra ten vital energy crystals to himself. Those ten vital energy crystals were already half of his monthly pay.
What a waste!
Remembering the sly smile on Austin's face, the disciple realized that he did that on purpose. The disciple got furious at the trick that Austin played on him.
"Tin, why didn't you tell me you got rich? Where did you get those vital energy crystals?"
Evan asked on their way back.
"You don't need to know, but you can have some if you want."
Evan was speechless at Austin's proposal.
... ...
In less than half a day after Evan took the Energy-recovering Elixir, all the wounds on his body healed. Aside from that, he felt that the cultivation base of the vital energy in his body had also improved.
Evan was happy to see that the elixir worked. If it wasn't for Austin, Evan didn't know how long it would take for him to recover using the ordinary medicines.
"Tin, I think I am already better after being beaten. I can feel that my cultivation base has improved a little."
Austin just looked at him with a blank face.
"Is that so? Do you want to be beaten again?"
Evan suddenly got scared and hurriedly found an excuse to do something else.
The following two days, Austin was absorbed in cultivating the Wind-commanding Skill.
Evan came to see Austin from time to time but found the latter was concentrating in cultivating and had no time to talk with him.
Seeing Austin's dedication in his cultivation, Evan remembered the time when his friend was still an outer disciple. Back in the day, Austin was known for his diligence in cultivation and admired by all the other disciples for it.
As a good friend, Evan supported Austin during this time and didn't bother him at all. He just brought him something to eat from time to time.
Austin cultivated day and night with short rest in between. During his night cultivation, Austin could feel the night breeze from the cottage or the wind between the trees from the nearby forest.
During the daytime, he would go up to the top of the mountain and could feel the strong wind blowing from far away in the sky.
