The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 179

Yes! Herbert is very poor and he has to borrow money from me to make a living. Don't worry Herbert. We are buddies after all! I won't ask you to pay me back.

Hearing that, Herbert was so glad that he immediately paid Evan a compliment.

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, he wouldn'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 it came to money.

Despite this little flaw, he had always been standing on the right side on major occasions.

For example, a few days ago, thinking that Austin had died in the Grand Desolation Mountain, Marvin had kicked Evan out from Austin's apartment.

Although Herbert wasn't very competent, he had taken the risk of offending Marvin in order to take care of Evan. Sadly, this act of kindness 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 he should give me some compensation too.

Since you're so powerful now, I'm sure he wouldn't dare refuse if you'll be the one asking him. It would be a relief to make him spend more money!"

Herbert said, trying to encourage Austin to extort more vital energy crystals from Marvin.

Austin knew that Herbert had suffered a lot because of Evan these past few 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 have twenty thousand vital energy crystals each. You can easily afford some stuff for cultivation practice with this much vital energy crystals."

With that, Austin took out two small bottles, each of which contained ten Energy-boosting Elixirs.

He then gave them to Evan and Herbert accordingly.

For ordinary outer disciples of Sun Sect, the Energy-boosting Elixir was very precious for cultivation. That was why receiving a whole bottle of Energy-boosting Elixirs was like a dream come true for both Evan and Herbert, who were so excited beyond their imagination. Herbert couldn't help but shout loudly and run around like crazy in the yard.

"Ha-ha! Ten Energy-boosting Elixirs! I have made a fortune!"

"Remember not to provoke Marvin in the future. He doesn't want to confront me right now, but that doesn't mean that he will let this slide and sit still. When he reaches a higher cultivation level, he will definitely challenge me again.

Besides, his uncle is the steward of Sun Sect, so you can't afford to mess with him.

Don't try to get anything from him," Austin dutifully reminded Evan and Herbert after Herbert had calmed down.

Keeping a low profile before becoming powerful enough was the philosophy that Austin stuck to all these years. And it was also the philosophy which he constantly lectured to Evan and Herbert.

.. .. . .

"Tin, thirty-five outer disciples have joined us these past few days. They wanted to see you.

And many more outer disciples have asked to join us. Your influence now 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 near future."
