Chapter 2973 Cheating

"Oh, is that so?

All right, then, you can keep them under your control now," Austin replied, both surprised and delighted at this revelation.

He didn't expect that he could acquire part of his slaves' spiritual soul energy.

In that sense, the stronger his slaves were, the more beneficial it would be for his spiritual soul.

Austin began to understand why the members of the spiritual race had such strong spiritual souls. He also realized how they could dominate the universe by solely relying on their spiritual soul energy.

The reason was simple. All of the members in this race mastered the secret skill—the Puppet Strings.

"How dare you use the Puppet Strings to subdue us, Lange? I won't let you off the hook!"

The thirteen spirits were livid. They protested, aghast that they their own skill was being used against their own race.

However, no matter how much they struggled, they couldn't do anything since they were restrained by Austin's spiritual tree.

After a while, Lange kept the thirteen spirits under his control. He eventually became their master.

He looked at his slaves and laughed. He had waited for this moment for a very long time.

"You had never seen this coming, had you?

Back then, you were so mean to me. You robbed me of cultivation resources and tried to take me out. I even had to run away from you.

Humph! All of you get down on your knees now!" Lange commanded. He was in a particularly good mood right now, he even allowed a small smile spread through his lips.

Now that he finally had the chance to retaliate on the people that once bullied him, he felt elated and triumphant.

"Master, please spare us!

It was all our fault. We shouldn't have been so mean to you.

From now on, we will be loyal to you and serve you wholeheartedly!"

Scared for their life, the thirteen spirits knelt down and begged Lange for mercy.

Their lives were in his hands. Lange had them by the palm of his hand because they were controlled by the Puppet Strings. They had no choice but to swallow their pride and bow before him.

"You are wrong.

I'm not your master.

From now on, this gentleman is your master.

Pay your respects!"

Lange boomed on the thirteen spirits.

'How could it be possible? He is merely a human brat. Was Lange controlled by this guy?

That's impossible! The Puppet Strings is a secret skill specially made for our race. Technically speaking, we are the only ones who could master it.

Even if creatures from other races know how to practice it, they won't be able to grasp it.'

Terribly confused with the whole situation, the thirteen spirits ransacked their minds of possible reasons.

Right now, the best course of action was for

ill never know what will happen next, ' he mused.

"Well, I will refine some spiritual crystals. You can leave now,"

Austin ordered, motioning for all the slaves to take their leave.

The thirteen members of the spiritual race had accrued a rather great wealth.

Austin examined the spiritual crystal in heaps. He was surprised to find that there were countless of them that they managed to flood the streets and the alleys in the town.

Lange told him that the thirteen spirits had collected those spiritual crystals for over tens of thousands of years.

Austin gave some of the spiritual crystals to his companions including the Heavenly Majestic Pot and Violet.

Each piece of spiritual crystal possessed a very rich amount of spiritual soul energy, which was very useful for cultivators who wanted to improve their spiritual sense.

After collecting the spiritual crystals, Austin and his team began refining them.

Since the thirteen spirits lost all of their treasures that they had gathered in their whole lives, they were frustrated and dispirited.

"Humph! Liven yourselves up!

Our master is intelligent and very quick on his feet. Aside from that, he has the spiritual tree.

We are all familiar of its power.

With the spiritual tree, our master can do whatever he wants in this universe.

I have this intuition that anytime soon, he will definitely achieve big things here.

We are his slaves now. As long as we are loyal to him, this whole thing might even become beneficial for us,"

Lange tried his best to encourage the thirteen dejected spirits. He truly believed that Austin was going to be their salvation.

"Well, you make a good point!"

Hearing Lange's sound argument, the thirteen spirits felt more at ease. They had hoped that this would turn to their advantage.
