Chapter 1686

Chase and Elijah objected to Silas' suggestion.

"It's too risky for Mr. Everheart and Mr. Stuart to go into the village. The villagers might even hold them hostage. It's too dangerous!" "Yeah, we'll lose our advantage once they enter the village. We can't even fight back if anything happens. I think we'd better not take the risk..."

Xavier frowned and wondered if he should agree. Their concerns were valid -the villagers were barbarians beyond the reach of the law, so promises and morality would mean nothing to them. If he impulsively went with them, he would be at their mercy. It was a great risk.

'TH go with you," Quinton said to Silas calmly. He bypassed the crowd and approached Silas.

"Are you willing to?" Silas was taken aback, not expecting them to be that trusting and sincere.

"I've got nothing to fear-I believe that the descendants of dragons aren't cunning people who would go back on their word," Quinton remarked. He had escaped death many times and was not afraid of dying. Besides, if this helped save Stefan, his sister would be happy. As Renee's brother, he had done a lot of bad things, and had failed to protect his sister. In a way, he could make it up to her through this.

"Great! You're a true man!" Silas gave Quinton an approving look, then turned to Xavier. "How about you? Do you want to go with US?" "I can..." Xavier looked at Silas coldly. "But I have one condition."

Silas became enraged and demanded, "What right do you have to negotiate terms with me?" "Why not?" Xavier was not as easy to talk to as Quinton. He had a bad temper, and his easy life made him reckless. He was not afraid of infuriating Silas, and said firmly, "I'm not your villager or your slave, and my weapons are better than yours. You all are the ones who have no right to negotiate terms with me. If you don't behave, I might destroy your entire village." He felt that he had endured enough today, and having an aggressive enemy triggered him. His years in business taught him that he should never be too tolerant towards an opponent, or else they would walk all over him.

"How dare you..." Silas and the villagers became furious when they heard that.

"There's nothing to talk about. Let's fight him!" "Yeah, let's fight him!"

Enraged, the villagers wanted to fight Xavier, but they couldn't do anything other than shout because they knew how dangerous Xavier's men were.

Xavier rubbed his temples in frustration. "Okay, stop shouting. We both have something the other needs, so we're in the same boat. Let's just take a step back and try to resolve this."
