Chapter 1689
"Okay, Mr. Drago." Although the villagers could not understand Silas, they
unconditionally obeyed him.
"If it weren't for you, I would have thought everyone here were cavemen!" Xavier
casually sat on a stool, still looking like a rich CEO despite being in the
wilderness.
Quinton looked around. He knew that they were being put on the spot, and
fighting their way out would be courting death. Hence, he decided to see how
things went. He said to Silas politely, "Mr. Drago, I'm sure you see our sincerity.
We aren't bad people, and neither is Stefan. It was an urgent matter, and my
sister was on the verge of death, which was why he violated your clan's sacred
laws." "You don't have to talk to me about your innocence. All those who came
looking for the dragon's saliva had an urgent matter, and wanted it either for
wealth or health. I've seen many kinds of people at my age, and you both aren't
the most innocent ones," Silas remarked casually as he sipped the tea served by
his villager.
Quinton bowed his head as he thought about it. "Let's cut to the chase then -what
do we need to do so you'll let him go?"
Silas remained quiet as he drank his tea.
"Old man, he's asking you a question, so stop wasting time! When are you going
to let him go?" Xavier smacked the table fiercely. "I'm sure you're aware that we
can destroy your village. He has to return with US today!" "Did I say you can't
take him away?" Silas said finally. "But you have to agree to my terms before I let
him go.” "What is it? Say it!" Xavier demanded eagerly. He felt that things would
go smoothly as long as they could negotiate.
"Dragos has never been peaceful from the day I was born. Although the dragon's
saliva is practically a myth, many people came here because of it. They used all
kinds of means to get it, and Dragos would have been ruined if my dragon
ancestor didn't bless US..." Silas" eyes glistened as he spoke, and even the fierce
villagers bowed their heads sadly. It was obvious that the village had suffered
many misfortunes, which was why they were so wary of strangers. "Fifty years
ago, a group of robbers barged into my village. We risked our lives to fight them
until only a little more than ten families were left. Then, we moved to a higher
spot in the mountains. You saw many checkpoints on your way up because they
used to be gathering points of the villagers..."

Quinton sighed. "Sir, I understand. I'd
led a life of lying low and killing
people back then." In the past,
Carmine Pawnshop had managed to
gain a firm foothold at Water Dock
because Quinton's subordinates had
sacrificed their lives for it. The
villagers must have become
ferocious after constantly seeing
their clan on the verge of destruction.

"I thought you all were like those bad
people who came for the dragon's
saliva, but it seems that I'm wrong..."
Silas looked in the direction of the
memorial chamber. "You all returned
the cauldron with the dragon's saliva,
and it doesn't look like you want to
exterminate my clan, so... I can
forgive you and let him go. However,
my condition is that you all have to
protect my clan for a hundred years,
and stop wicked people from
harming us!" The content is on
