Lord death is now back home novel Chapter 569

Chapter 569

The people of Jefferson Village, though not as closely related by blood as Peter Jefferson, still carried a trace of the bloodline of the Jefferson family's ancestors. As for Chris, he was a complete outsider. He really couldn't understand why Peter Jefferson wouldn't give the Dragon Emblem fragment to the people of the Jefferson family to cultivate.

"Do you think I don't want to?" Peter Jefferson was full of helplessness. "The people of Jefferson Village are basically farmers now. Asking them to cultivate the Dragon Emblem fragment is like forcing them!"

The more he spoke, the more desolate Peter Jefferson became. After over a hundred years, the people of Jefferson Village now had no traces of their ancestors at all! Asking them to learn martial arts and fight? They might as well stick to farming!

Especially this lad Chris. This huge blessing had fallen onto his head, but he always seemed reluctant. It was enough to make Peter Jefferson want to spit blood.

Chris thought for a moment, his face slightly calmer. Everything Peter Jefferson had said so far was consistent with what he had observed. It seemed that Peter truly had no other options.

"Old man, since the Dragon Emblem fragment is buried in the grave of the Jefferson family's ancestor, how are you going to give it to me?"

"Enough! Stop asking, I know what you're thinking." Seeing Chris determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Peter Jefferson waved his hand impatiently. "To put it bluntly, I'm giving you the Dragon Emblem fragment for two reasons. First, though you're not from Jefferson Village, you are the son-in-law of the Jefferson family lineage, so you're half a Jefferson. Second, you have the strength to protect the Dragon Emblem fragment. For the powerless Jefferson Village, the Dragon Emblem fragment is just a curse."

This curse would only get them more and more trouble. Peter Jefferson understood. The Dragon Emblem fragment in Jefferson Village was like a ticking time bomb. Peter Jefferson was already a hundred years old. He didn't want his death to bring unprovoked disaster to Jefferson Village. It would be better to take this opportunity to hand over this ticking time bomb, the Dragon Emblem fragment, to Chris!

Peter Jefferson continued, "As for how I'm going to give the Dragon Emblem fragment to you? Chris, do you remember the dragon-shaped jade pendant I gave you last time?"

Chris took out the dragon-shaped jade pendant from his waist, "This one?"

"Hmm!" Peter Jefferson nodded, "Actually, this dragon-shaped jade pendant is the key to open the Dragon Emblem fragment."
