Xu Chunniang had previously considered giving some Spirit Crystals to Little Twig to absorb.
But the spiritual energy within mid-grade Spirit Crystals was far too low-grade for Little Twig as it was now.
"Absorb them. They're all yours. Once you cure the Treant King's injuries, there'll be another box of Spirit Crystals for you to absorb."
