    Chapter 1039: The Death of Ron Jefferson


    As things progressed, Ron Jefferson found himself unable to continue. It was as if he had stumbled


    upon some earth-shattering secret. Coughing violently, he began to cough uprge amounts of blood,


    looking utterly deranged. Hearing this, Chris was left dumbfounded. "The Hall of Death... just a


    ything for certain individuals?" It was just that-a mere ything, yet potent enough to annihte the


    four major aristocratic families of Amerosia in a single night. It could exert control over the overseas


    Jefferson family, a force of such terror! And this was merely the tip of the iceberg of the Hall of Death''s


    power. What kind of terror lurked behind the Hall of Death?


    For a moment, Chris was stunned, a rare flicker of shock in his eyes. "Hahaha!" Ron Jefferson burst


    intoughter upon seeing this. He was delighted. He hadn''t expected Chris, this upstart, to also


    experience fear! Staring at Chris, Ron Jefferson yelled hysterically, "Chris, you can''tpete with


    them! ept your fate! No matter how hard you try, no matter how many pieces of the Dragon Emblem


    you gather, in the end, you''ll only be making bridal clothes for them!" "I hate it! I hate it so much! I''ve


    spent decades nning, and in the end, it''s all just a joke..."


    With those words, Ron Jefferson coughed up another mouthful of blood. Eventually, his body went


    limp, and he copsed to the ground, lifeless. "Master! Master!" the steward cried, tears streaming


    down his face. Chris nced at Ron Jefferson''s body, said nothing, and turned away.


    "Boss!" "Chairman!" Upon seeing Chris emerge, Tiger, Aiden, and others immediately approached.


    Chris surveyed them all and said, "The Jefferson family of Star Ind will cease to exist from this day


    forward!" This deration struck them like a thunderbolt, especially the members of the King''s


    Leagues, each wearing aplex expression. They all knew the implication of Chris''s words. The end


    of the Jefferson family meant Ron Jefferson''s demise.


    The next day, a major announcement spread like wildfire: Ron Jefferson, head of the Jefferson family,


    had passed away, leading to theplete copse of the entire Jefferson family. This news sent


    tremors throughout Star Ind. No one had anticipated that the incredibly formidable Jefferson family,


    one of the top families on Star Ind, would fall in such a manner. Rumors circted about the truth


    behind the family''s downfall, with whispers suggesting that the Jefferson family had offended someone


    they shouldn''t have.


    The copse of the Jefferson family left behind a vast estate, which naturally became the object of


    everyone''s desire. However, the King''s Leagues promptly stepped forward, announcing the takeover of


    all the assets left by the Jefferson family, causing those eyeing the estate to back off. After all, the


    King''s Leagues were not to be trifled with.


    "Chairman, are you really leaving for the East Coast?" Aiden asked respectfully, his emotions


    conflicted. Without Chris, Aiden would never have regained control of the King''s Leagues. However, he


    knew that from now on, he was bound to Chris. He would have to defer to Chris in all matters, knowing


    that if he dared to betray Chris, his fate would mirror that of Ron Jefferson.


    "Yes," Chris nodded. "I''ve been away for so long; it''s time to return. But don''t worry, I''ll be back soon!"


    With the Jefferson family resolved, it was time for the Chester Group to expand beyond Amerosia, with


    Star Ind being its first stop. Aiden assured, "Chairman, I have already taken over all of the Jefferson


    family''s assets for you. When you return, the disposal of these assets will be in your hands!"


    The estate left by the Jefferson family was immense, valued at billions. Aiden knew that all of it


    belonged to Chris, and he wouldn''t dare touch a single item. Star Ind would be the overseas


    base of operations for the Chester Group.


    Chris nodded, saying nothing. Although he didn''t particrly value the Jefferson family''s assets, they


    would undoubtedly aid the Chester Group in its expansion beyond Amerosia. Moreover, in Chris''s


    mind, themercial behemoth that was the Chester Group would eventually belong to the Dragon


    Lord and the nation. The wealth was merely a temporary custodianship for the people of Amerosia.


    Soon after, Chris departed without lingering, boarding a ne back to the East Coast.


    Meanwhile, in Amerosia, within a hidden mansion in Middleton, a cloaked figure knelt before a masked


    elder. "My lord, I have failed to retrieve the Dragon Emblem fragment from Ron Jefferson''s


    possession," he said, visibly anxious. The elder, the enigmatic Lord of the Hall of Death, stood with


    deep, angered eyes. Chris had obtained yet another piece of the Dragon Emblem. This wasa scheme


    he hadid out, intending for Chris and Ron Jefferson to mutually destroy each other. When both were


    weakened, he would strike, seizing the Dragon Emblem fragments from their bodies. He hadn''t


    anticipated Ron Jefferson''s ipetence or Chris''s immense strength, rendering his n futile.


    "It''s likely that Chris already possesses at least three Dragon Emblem fragments," he muttered. "One


    from Jefferson Vige, one from the Yang family, and one from Ron Jefferson. As for other fragments


    on Chris, I am unaware, but we cannot allow him to obtain any more. Even if we gather all the


    fragments, Chris could likely deduce the location of the Dragon Lord''s tomb."


    Gritting his teeth, the elder dered, "This is the limit. We cannot let Chris live any longer. He''s be


    too formidable." Previously, he had disregarded Chris, but after theirst encounter in Middleton, he


    had begun to regard Chris seriously. Now, after yet another defeat at Chris''s hands, thetter''s position


    in his mind had surpassed everyone, except for one individual-their leader.


    The cloaked figure remained silent, understanding the immense difficulty of eliminating Chris. Even if


    the entire strength of the Hall of Death was deployed, it woulde at an exorbitant cost.


    Finally, he hesitated before speaking, "My Lord, there are those who are extremely dissatisfied with this


    situation. They wish for you to provide an exnation..."N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
