Lord death is now back home novel Chapter 560

Chapter 560

How could they bear to let Chris fall into a desperate situation! The villagers of Jefferson Village were kind-hearted people. They didn't want Chris to get hurt for their sake. It would weigh heavily on their conscience!

Hearing the words of the villagers, Peter Jefferson let out a cold huff, a shrewd gleam flickering in his eyes. "Bunch of naive folks, you don't have a clue! Chris's abilities exceed your imagination! Now, all of you, step back. When Chris arrives, I'll discuss our strategy with him!"

Upon hearing this, although the villagers were still uneasy, they dared not ignore Peter Jefferson's words.

Watching the retreating figures of the villagers, Peter Jefferson muttered disdainfully, "A bunch of ignorant people, how would you know what kind of person Chris is?"

Ever since he last saw Chris, Peter Jefferson knew that Chris was no ordinary man. Especially later, when Chris dealt with Mateo Mester, he revealed just the tip of his formidable power's iceberg!

Although Peter Jefferson had long resided in Jefferson Village, he was not an old fogy oblivious to the world outside. From what he understood, even James Mester, the former richest man on the East Coast, was affected due to Mateo Mester.

Rumor had it that James Mester even chose to retire early because of this! A man who could make the richest man on the East Coast retire, how could Chris possibly be ordinary?

Sadly, the villagers of Jefferson Village were like frogs at the bottom of a well, only seeing a portion of the sky.

"Who would've thought, the secret of the Dragon Emblem fragment has been exposed."

Suddenly, Peter Jefferson sighed.

Then, a hint of sharpness flashed in Peter Jefferson's eyes.

The villagers of Jefferson Village had lived here for generations, their purpose being to guard the Dragon Emblem fragment. But the ordinary villagers didn't know this. Only each successive village chief of Jefferson Village knew this secret. However, this secret, guarded for hundreds of years, had finally been exposed.

"Fortunately, I gave the jade pendant to Chris back then, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

Peter Jefferson felt a bit relieved. As the leader of the village that had been guarding the Dragon Emblem fragment for generations, he had his own helplessness.

He was already a hundred years old, with only a few years left to live. Yet, there was not a single person in the entire Jefferson Village who could continue the task.

Almost all the villagers of Jefferson Village were honest farmers. Giving the dragon-shaped jade pendant to them would have been sending them to their death.
