Carson chuckled, “The Aurora Society robbed so many people, so spoils of over ten million Spirit Stones isn’t a lot.
There were about twelve million Spirit Stones, their magical treasures sold for a few million, and then Situ Xiu voluntarily contributed over seven million, adding up to twenty-five million in total.”
Carson pointed to Killian beside him, “I originally estimated that defending the city would require at least fifty million Spirit Stones, so I wrote to Miss Killian to ask for help.
Miss Killian brought twenty million Spirit Stones with her, but who knew that ever since Zion Frost left on the fourth day, their attacks on the city started to falter, and the consumption of Spirit Stones dramatically decreased.
We didn’t even end up using thirty million Spirit Stones, making Miss Killian’s trip sowhat in vain.”
Killian smiled sweetly, “If it wasn’t spent, it’s saved, which is a good thing.”
Carson chuckled, “Indeed, it’s a good thing.”
Delaney stared at Carson and said, “Fifty million Spirit Stones, and it wasn’t even certain the city could be held, yet you still chose to do it.
Was it worth it?”
Carson answered frankly, “To be honest, it did hurt to burn through so many Spirit Stones, but the significance of this city is to provide a foothold for the disciples of Flying Waterfall Mountain Peak, a future for cultivation.
I feel that Spirit Stones can be earned again, but if the city were lost, even if we took it back later, its significance would sohow be different.”
“It’s like a man with a woman he deeply loves.
If soone tries to take her away and you give up now, even if you take her back three or five years later, would the feelings still be the sa?”
The crowd had awkward expressions.
Can comparisons really be made like this?
Delaney gave Carson a glare, “Speak properly.”
Carson chuckled, “If you, my Sect Master, were awake, and said to give up, naturally I wouldn’t hesitate to turn around and leave.
But you fainted, and as your disciple, I have to do my best to protect your estate, right?”
“As for the Spirit Stones that were burnt, I originally thought to keep this debt in mind, to settle scores with Soul Shock City and Holy Fire Sect when we beca powerful enough.
But now that Zion Frost is in our hands, perhaps we won’t need to wait that long to settle it.”
Delaney watched Carson with a complex look in her eyes.
Gratitude.
Reassurance.
This disciple is really reliable!
This is what a true disciple is!
“You’re not planning to kill Zion Frost?”
Carson laughed, “Now that you’re awake, Sect Master, everything is none of my concern.
Whether to kill or release him is up for you to decide.
I have no opinion.
I originally just ca along to see the world, and this ti was purely by fluke, plus a stroke of incredible luck.
Otherwise, I’d probably be done for by now.”
Delaney scoffed, amazing luck?
You sure dare to say that.
Her disciple held many secrets.
“Alright, you all worked hard these past days, so go rest.
Leave the rest to …
Carson, stay for a mont.”
After everyone left, only Carson and Delaney remained on the high platform.
Delaney stared at Carson and suddenly smiled, “Suddenly fainting?”
Carson’s face took on a slightly embarrassed expression, “Lucky, very lucky.”
Delaney asked, “Will you continue to be this lucky against Divinity Transformation Stages in the future?”
Carson shook his head, “Definitely not, I was just really lucky this ti, nearly didn’t make it.”
Delaney’s question was laced with an underlying aning, which Carson clearly understood and responded to.
This ti it was luck, next ti might not be so fortunate.
Delaney didn’t press Carson on what exactly he did, but seriously asked, “Aside from the spent Spirit Stones, were there any other losses?
I will hold Holy Fire Sect accountable for everything.”
Carson denied, “Not really, it was just Spirit Stones.”
Delaney patted Carson on the shoulder, “Alright, I’ll make sure they pay a suitable price.”
Carson grinned, “Strike while the iron’s hot.
Aren’t you still short by several layers for your Sword Bone, Sect Master?
Take this chance to hamr out a good deal; you might just get enough.”
Delaney blinked in surprise, “Isn’t this your Spirit Stone?”
Carson said with a beaming smile, “You’ve seen it, Holy Fire Sect are very arrogant, all because you are just a Nascent Soul.
If you were in Divinity Transformation, ard with full Sword Bone, you could definitely beat them handily.
Let’s see if they’d still dare to be so arrogant then, so really, you forging your full Sword Bone and entering Divinity Transformation is the most important thing.”
“I’m just a Golden Core.
There are plenty who can bully .
Apart from clinging to my Sect Master’s coattails, whose can I cling to?
So, if you beco more powerful, my words will carry more weight.
Thus, this isn’t just for you, but for Flying Waterfall Mountain Peak and all the disciples of White Wave City too.”
“This ti, don’t worry about the Spirit Stones.
Whatever precious materials you need, just list them for them to provide.
If Holy Fire Sect doesn’t have them, let them go purchase or trade from other Sects.
In short, you just make the demands; how to fulfill them is their problem.”
“They lost; they should pay the price.
If not, we might as well kill Zion Frost and go our separate ways.
Even if their Sect Master cos, I can’t believe he’d dare to commit murder, right?”
