    Chapter 1203: Negotiations with the Abernathy Family


    Chris Shelby hurriedly helped the old man up and said, "Please, don''t do this. You are Harold


    Jefferson''s father, and I should call you uncle. I can''t ept you kneeling to me!"


    Hearing Chris Shelby''s words, the old man finally stood up shakily with his help.


    "Don''t worry, I will definitely save Jefferson Vige!" Chris Shelby assured. "By the way, what''s the


    current situation in Jefferson Vige?"


    The old man sighed, "The old vige chief has been captured by them!"


    "What? The old vige chief has been captured! I''ll go rescue him right now!" Harold Jefferson


    eximed, ready to confront Peterson Abernathy and his men.


    Chris Shelby shouted, "Come back here!"


    "Mr. Shelby!" Harold Jefferson stopped immediately, looking at Chris Shelby.


    Chris Shelby scolded, "Do you think you can rescue the old vige chief on your own? You''re not


    going to save him; you''re going to get yourself killed!"


    Harold Jefferson felt aggrieved, "Then what should I do? I can''t just watch the old vige chief


    suffer!"


    Harold Jefferson had a deep bond with the old vige chief, Peter Jefferson, who had taught him


    martial arts since childhood. Now that he heard Peter Jefferson had been captured, he was


    extremely anxious. However, he knew Chris Shelby was right. The enemy was numerous and


    powerful. Going alone would be suicide.


    Chris Shelby''s eyes shed coldly, "Don''t worry, I will rescue the old vige chief!"


    Hearing Chris Shelby''s words, Harold Jefferson felt relieved. He knew what Chris Shelby was


    capable of. If Chris Shelby took action, he would surely save the old vige chief.


    Meanwhile, at Manson Jefferson''s grave.


    Thousands of excavators were working continuously, almost ttening the entire mountain.


    Devil''s Frown smiled obsequiously, "Mr. Abernathy, at this rate, we will prate Manson


    Jefferson''s grave by tomorrow and find the Dragon Emblem scroll."


    Peterson Abernathy chuckled proudly. This time, the Abernathy family hade well-prepared with


    thousands of excavators. He didn''t believe they couldn''t unearth the Dragon Emblem scroll.


    "Father, something''s wrong!"


    "Father, something''s wrong!"


    At that moment, Grayson Abernathy came running over in a panic.


    "Grayson Abernathy, you are the future head of the Abernathy family. You must act calmly and


    steadily," Peterson Abernathy admonished sternly but with a dark expression.


    In Peterson Abernathy''s eyes, Noah Abernathy was the best candidate for the future head of the


    family. Unfortunately, Noah Abernathy had been killed by Chris Shelby. Now he had to teach


    Grayson Abernathy from scratch. However, Grayson Abernathy was far inferior to Noah Abernathy


    in bothposure and strength. As a leader, one must remain unflustered even in the face of great


    danger. Acting so rashly was unbing of a great leader.


    After being reprimanded by his father, Grayson Abernathy became timid.


    "Speak up. What happened?" Peterson Abernathy sighed.


    Grayson Abernathy stammered, "Father, Chris Shelby is here!"


    "What?" Both Peterson Abernathy and Devil''s Frown''s faces changed instantly upon hearing this.


    Peterson Abernathy gritted his teeth, "We rushed as fast as we could, but we didn''t expect Chris


    Shelby to arrive so quickly! This Chris Shelby is a troublemaker; it seems we''re in for some trouble."


    Peterson Abernathy knew very well who Chris Shelby was. Wherever he went, there was no peace.


    Originally, they could have calmly unearthed the Dragon Emblem scroll. But now it seemed


    impossible because Chris Shelby would never let them obtain it.


    At this moment, Devil''s Frown suggested, "Mr. Abernathy, there''s no need to panic. We can use a


    dying tactic and negotiate with Chris Shelby to buy some time."


    Peterson Abernathy asked doubtfully, "Will Chris Shelby agree to negotiate? From what I know, he


    always acts domineeringly."


    Chris Shelby was known for his domineering ways. No matter what force he encountered, he would


    crush them directly. Whether it was Ghost Sect, Hall of Death, or Wind family, they were all ttened


    by him. Negotiating with Chris Shelby seemed like a fool''s dream.


    Devil''s Frown smiled faintly, "Mr. Abernathy, don''t forget that we have Nathaniel Abernathy as our


    trump card. Although Chris Shelby is formidable, he is no match for Nathaniel Abernathy. So I


    believe Chris Shelby will negotiate with us."


    Hearing this, Peterson Abernathy''s eyes lit up. If they could negotiate with Chris Shelby, it would not


    only buy them time but also avoid a direct confrontation with him. After all, Chris Shelby''s strength


    was too formidable; even Peterson Abernathy wasn''t confident in dealing with him.


    Peterson Abernathy nodded, "This is a good n. Then you handle the negotiations with Chris


    Shelby."


    Devil''s Frown nodded firmly, "Yes! Mr. Abernathy, rest assured; I willplete the task."


    Peterson Abernathy patted Devil''s Frown on the shoulder and smiled, "If you seed in this task,


    rebuilding Ghost Sect won''t be a problem."


    "Thank you, Mr. Abernathy!" Devil''s Frown was overjoyed.


    To rebuild Ghost Sect, Devil''s Frown decided to take this risk.


    ...


    "Boss, someone from the Abernathy family is here to negotiate."


    At Harold Jefferson''s house, Tiger reported with a strange expression.


    "Oh? Is that so?" Chris Shelby chuckled upon hearing this.

    Tiger asked curiously, "Boss, I don''t understand why the Abernathy family wants to negotiate with


    you. We are already at odds; what is there to negotiate?"


    Previously, Chris Shelby had led an attack on the Abernathy family and almost wiped them out.


    Their rtionship could be described as irreconcble. But now the Abernathy family suddenly


    wanted to negotiate; Tiger couldn''t figure out their scheme.


    Chris Shelby smiled faintly, "What other scheme could they have? It''s just a dying tactic. Since


    they want to talk, I''ll talk to them and use this opportunity to rescue the old vige chief."


    He nced at Tiger and said, "Go tell the Abernathy family that I''m willing to negotiate. The location


    will be at the Jefferson Vige ancestral hall."


    Whatever scheme Peterson Abernathy had in mind couldn''t escape Chris Shelby''s sharp eyes.


    Over the years of battling on various fronts, countless enemy plots had been foiled by him. The


    mere Abernathy family was not worth fearing!


    "Yes!" Tiger didn''t waste any time and immediately left.


    Watching Tiger''s departing figure, Chris Shelby''s eyes gleamed sharply. Since the Abernathy family


    wanted to y games with him, he would y along thoroughly.
