Chapter 1132: Grandfather Abernathy's Recruitment

Upon hearing this, Chris Shelby was completely shocked. You see, that old man was already well into his eighties. If that old man was considered a junior in the Abernathy family, then how old was this Master Abernathy really?

Chris Shelby carefully observed this Destiny. All he could see was a man with white hair but a youthful face. From appearances, he seemed to be around eighty or ninety at most. However, Chris Shelby's intuition told him that this Destiny was definitely not just eighty or ninety, but quite possibly over a hundred years old!

The thought of a hundred-year-old man still possessing such formidable strength made Chris Shelby's heart turn cold. Having experienced so much in life, Chris Shelby knew all too well that these old folks, one more cunning than the other. This Destiny, being able to be a Master Abernathy, must be a thousand-year-old sly fox! Dealing with such a cunning old fox required utmost caution. Because one misstep could lead to being ensnared by these old foxes.

With these thoughts in mind, Chris Shelby's wariness heightened. Destiny continued, "Chris Shelby, we really don't have to be at odds! While you are the Amerosia Primus, there is no conflict of interest between us, the Abernathy family, and the ten heritage families. We can be friends..."

Before Destiny could finish, Chris Shelby's cold interruption came, "I'm sorry, I will not be friends with you! Every one of you in the ten heritage families is selfish, and keeping you around will only cause trouble for Amerosia in the future. As the Amerosia Primus, I have the responsibility to eliminate these troubles and protect the people of Amerosia!"

"Chris Shelby, you're getting too arrogant!" Peterson Abernathy on the side immediately cursed, "Chris Shelby, who do you think you are, daring to speak to my grandfather like this? I bet if my grandfather blows, he can blow you away!"

Ignoring Peterson Abernathy, Chris Shelby knew that all the keys lay in Destiny's hands. Destiny was the Master Abernathy. If he couldn't take him down today, all would be lost.

"Chris Shelby, you're going too far!" Seeing Chris Shelby ignore him, Peterson Abernathy's face turned ashen. Even as the head of the Abernathy family, when had he been so blatantly disregarded? Chris Shelby's behavior was simply unacceptable, how could he ignore him like this?

"Enough, you don't need to speak, this is my conversation with Chris Shelby, you have no right to participate!" Destiny's displeasure was evident as he scolded Peterson Abernathy. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Peterson Abernathy hesitated for a moment. Since when did he not have the right to speak? But he didn't dare question Destiny's words. In the Abernathy family, despite being the head, the real authority lay with Destiny. Destiny, as the head, held the supreme authority in the Abernathy family. Even he couldn't challenge it.

"Yes!" Peterson Abernathy dared not speak up, only obediently stepping aside. However, he glared at Chris Shelby with resentment, wishing he could tear him apart.

Chris Shelby, on the other hand, paid no attention to Peterson Abernathy's eyes. He considered him nothing more than a jester, unworthy of his attention. Hearing Chris Shelby's words, Destiny continued with a smile, "Chris Shelby, why persist? As long as you join forces with us, the Abernathy family, becoming the ruler of split lands is just around the corner!"

"I know you have the Dragon Emblem fragments in your hands, but without my Abernathy family, you won't be able to decipher the secrets behind the Dragon Emblem fragments!"

At this statement, Chris Shelby frowned. What did Destiny mean by this? Did he really need the Abernathy family to unlock the secrets behind the Dragon Emblem?

Seeing Chris Shelby's expression, Destiny explained, "I believe you should already know, our ten heritage families were all under Lord Dragon's command a millennium ago. But there's one thing you don't know, our Abernathy family ancestors were not only Lord Dragon's subordinates but also his disciples."

"Before Lord Dragon disappeared, he entrusted the Dragon Emblem to our ten heritage families, but he handed over the key to deciphering the Dragon Emblem to our Abernathy family!"

"So without us, the Abernathy family, even if you have all the Dragon Emblem fragments, you won't be able to find Lord Dragon's treasure. Only through cooperation with me can you find Lord Dragon's treasure and seek the opportunity to break through the Third Stage of martial arts."

Listening to this, Chris Shelby remained silent for a long time. The information Destiny shared was truly significant. The Abernathy family ancestors were not only Lord Dragon's subordinates but also his disciples. Most importantly, before his disappearance, Lord Dragon had entrusted the key to deciphering the Dragon Emblem to the Abernathy family. This meant that if he wanted to find Lord Dragon's treasure, he had to cooperate with the Abernathy family!

Seeing Chris Shelby's silence, Destiny smiled, confident that Chris Shelby, being a wise person, knew what choice to make. Although Chris Shelby may not care about becoming the ruler of the split lands, no martial artist could resist the allure of Lord Dragon's treasure. After all, Lord Dragon's treasure was related to the breakthrough of the Third Stage of martial arts!

Ever since Lord Dragon disappeared, countless martial artists had been trying to break through the Third Stage without success. They couldn't understand why. But there was a rumor slowly spreading in the martial arts world. It was said that before Lord Dragon vanished, he uttered a sentence.

"After he left, there would no longer be the Third Stage of martial arts. The secret to breaking through the Third Stage of martial arts lies hidden within the Dragon Emblem!"

It was because of this sentence that after Lord Dragon's disappearance, the ten heritage families fought over the Dragon Emblem. Eventually, the Dragon Emblem was split into nine pieces and scattered all over the world. Over the centuries, the ten heritage families had never given up searching for the Dragon Emblem fragments. Yet, they had never been able to find all nine Dragon Emblem fragments. Now, Chris Shelby held four Dragon Emblem fragments. Destiny did not believe that Chris Shelby could resist the temptation of the Third Stage of martial arts. Indeed, Chris Shelby couldn't resist the allure of the Third Stage of martial arts. It was a realm that seemed unattainable. Even though his master hadn't reached the Third Stage of martial arts, Chris Shelby's current strength was unrivaled. He had already reached his limits. If he couldn't find all the Dragon Emblem fragments and locate Lord Dragon's treasure soon, he would be like everyone else, unable to reach the pinnacle of martial arts. And that was something Chris Shelby couldn't tolerate!

Destiny held the key to unraveling the secrets of the Dragon Emblem, a significant bargaining chip. But even with that, Destiny was too naive to think that Chris Shelby would submit. Thinking this, Chris Shelby suddenly smiled. With a disdainful expression, he said, "I must admit, what you said did tempt me! However, I am the Primus of Amerosia! I care more about the billions of people in Amerosia than some so- called Lord Dragon's treasure. The ten heritage families, despite having withdrawn, are always seeking to restore their power. If I don't eradicate your Abernathy family, you will inevitably bring chaos to Amerosia. Moreover, I've killed your great-grandson, I've killed many in your Abernathy family. I don't believe you can truly cooperate with me!"
