The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 343

Wendy was taken aback and exclaimed, "Grave relocation?"

The topic seemed completely disconnected from their previous conversation, and she could not help saying, "Mr. Zeller, L... I don't quite understand."

Felix knew he needed to explain, though he kept it brief. "I need Mr. Laird to relocate his family grave. It might seem like an unreasonable request, but it has to be done. Could you ask your father if he can help make this happen?" Given everything Felix had done for her family, Wendy could not refuse to try at least. "Of course, let me make a quick call."

This unusual request stemmed from Felix detecting one of the ancient dragon's spine fragments in the area. Since his meridians had evolved and the dragon scale had fully bonded with him, he could sense all nine spine fragments of the ancient dragon within a certain range.

According to Gerald, most fragments were marked on the map he provided. However, there was always the possibility that some had been discovered by chance or claimed by others.

This restaurant was not marked on the map, yet Felix had sensed the fragment clearly upon entering. After a quick inspection, he discovered the fragment was buried beneath a grave in the restaurant's private back garden.

Though the gravestone was unmarked, its location in the restricted area suggested a connection to the owner.
