The Rise of Dragon Temple

Chapter 52

It was a quarter past eleven at night. At the top of Gempoint Group’s building which was 100 meters high, Joseph, dressed in black, stood against the wind under the gloomy night sky. As the chilly night breeze blew across him, his gown flapped. He looked down at Olpen’s night scenery, facing the wedding site—which was brightly lit and was in rapid progression-and the direction of Paige and Chloe. For the first half of his life, he had lived miserably. At first, he thought he would only live in pain. However, God unexpectedly gave him the two greatest gifts in the world-a gentle and kind wife and an adorable and sensible daughter. Thinking about that, he took a deep breath. In this life, he would never let Paige and Chloe suffer again.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) There was even a moment where he wanted to give up everything the Dragon Temple, his grudges in Usmait and Vowhye, the invitation from Frogua’s military, everything-and live an ordinary life, protecting his family. Unfortunately, he could not. He had too many burdens and enemies. Even if he wanted to live an ordinary life before wiping out all his enemies, his enemies wouldn’t give him peace of mind once they found out… Looking at the place where Paige and Chloe were, Joseph clenched his fists tightly. To him, they were a ray of light in his life. Whoever dared to lay a finger on them, he would skin them alive regardless of who they were!

and despair, Harrison stared at Rory. “Do you know that today, the two top companies in Olpen-Gempoint Group and Mysticorps Group, terminated all their cooperations with Dwarfnite Group! Not only that, but they also publicly announced that whichever companies in Olpen dare to cooperate with us, they will boycott those companies! Within a day, they manage to drive our prosperous family to bankruptcy. So, tell me! What have you done out there? Who did you offend?!” Rory was shaking like

is Paige’s husband. The man who impregnated Paige five years ago. Now, he is back with her, and he helped her to secure lots of business partners. He even forced Grandpa to appoint her as the vice president. Not only did Grandpa demoted me, but Joseph also often scolded me. I don’t think I can stay at home anymore, boo hoo…” Lily bawled her eyes out. In fact, she was not pretending because these days, Joseph and Paige had given her a huge emotional blow. Now, even the company employees ignored her and went to Paige. Meanwhile, in a training field around two to three hundred miles away from Oplen, a 180 centimeters man wearing the military uniform, with a piercing gaze, and a face as sharp as a knife, was looking at his younger cousin sister sobbing through the screen. While he was watching, he emanated a monstrous aura. He was Maxton Mooney, the most excellent man in the Mooneys, and he had a great relationship with Lily since childhood! Upon seeing Lily crying so sadly, he asked in a cold and angry voice, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)”What did Grandpa say? Did he just let Joseph bully you? Without doing anything? What about Uncle Tommy and my dad? Did they just let him be?” After hearing Maxton’s words, Lily shed more tears, feeling more oppressed. She kept crying and could not say a word. Seeing that Lily was still crying, Maxton got extra annoyed and shouted, “Stop crying! What did they say? Tell me!”  As expected, Lily stopped wailing in an instant and stammered, “Did… Did you just shout at me?” Maxton’s face stiffened, and he explained apologetically, “I’m sorry, Lily. I am just busy right now. My superior ordered me to take all nine troops back to Oplen later. It’s raining outside, but the military orders are urgent, so I’m a little anxious…” When Lily heard that he was coming back, a smile appeared on her face. “Did you mean… you are coming back? That’s great!” Hearing that, Maxton nodded. “Yes, I’ll be back tonight, so don’t worry. If my dad, Uncle Tommy, and Grandpa refuse to help you, I’ll help you! I want to see who dares to bully my dear sister! Also, you may tell Grandpa and the others that I made a great achievement some time ago, and the military has promoted me to a rank higher. Now, I am the commander of the Eagle Troop with 3,000 soldiers! Once they know about this, I’m sure they will listen to me! Alright, I have to go. We’ll talk about it when I get back!” As he spoke, enormous confidence surged within him. Yes, he was now the Eagle Troop’s commander of the central region’s military. Moreover, all the Eagle Troop commanders were the next-to-be generals. Therefore, he believed that in another three to five years, he would become a general! With that, he would also have the potential to be a major general! So this time around, he would like to see who had the guts to bully Lily in his presence! Even though he was in the military base most of the time, that didn’t mean his family could treat him as if he didn’t exist. At that moment, his anger thrummed through his veins. Paige was also his cousin, but she was introverted since she was young. Thus, he had always played with Lily. Moreover, Lily liked to chase after him, be considerate toward him, and prioritize him. Hence, in his heart, he only treated Lily as his younger sister. Besides, although he was in the military base, Paige’s incident that humiliated the family five years ago had more or less affected him. The rain outside was getting heavier. After hanging up the video call, Maxton

Just then, Leonard chuckled, “Max, I heard from Lily that you’ve gotten a rank higher again. Now, you are a commander, leading three thousand soldiers! Congratulations! Our family will definitely soar to greatness under your leadership in the future! Well done! The whole family and I are so proud of you!” Even so, Maxton glowered at Leonard and waved his hand. “Grandpa, let’s talk about this later. I have a military order, so I can only stay here for one day the most. The reason why I rush back tonight is to ask you a question. Am I still a part of the Mooneys? Does anyone still listen to me?” After Maxton finished, Lily–who was sitting aside-lowered her head. Deep down, she felt confident, and a hint of viciousness flashed through her eyes. On the other hand, Rory and Harrison got nervous and thought to themselves, “Here he comes…” For a moment, Leonard was stunned before he responded in a serious tone, “What are you talking about? As long as you want,(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) I am willing to give you the entire family! And of course, we will always listen to you!” Hearing that, Maxton nodded and looked at Dominic and Tommy. “What about the both of you?” Right away, Dominic and Tommy also nodded and flattered, “Of course, your words always matter!” Maxton took a deep breath, and his rage burst out before he bellowed, “Great! Since everyone still thinks that my words
