The Rise of Dragon Temple novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76

Joseph left in the morning. He stayed in Junlin Group for a short time. He recalled the feeling he had five years ago when the Junlin Tower was just built. However, after he left, all the big shots of Usmait became more dignified. All of them shrank their forces and became cautious. They no longer dared to be as unscrupulous as before. All of this was due to the fact that a rumor had spread across the high personals in Usmait. The previous night, Shangguan Bo, the head of the Shangguan family, and Yin Zheng, the head of the Yin family, were both scared out of their wits when they return. They need someone to support them when they walk, and their faces were extremely pale. They were not the only ones, Lu Tianxun the head of the Police Department, Si TianZheng the head of the Municipal Administration Department were also scared out of his wits. Later, the Shangguan family and the Yin family announced that the Junlin Group have their full support and they cooperated with the Junlin Group across various fields. Some big shots who had a close relationship with Shangguan Bo and Yin Zheng went to visit

light. They wanted to ask what had happened, but they only got one answer. And that was Fu Junlin was dead, and the Junlin Group had changed. The new owner of Junlin Group was terrifyingly powerful and they must not provoke him! This news had shocked all the big shots in Usmait and caused everyone to be left dumbfounded. Of course, Joseph didn’t care about that. He was a decisive person and he wanted to solve the problem as soon as possible. He didn’t care much whether the people were frightened by him. He wasn’t interested in suppressing them if they didn’t provoke him. In the morning, Joseph took a plane and flew back to the Oplen. He landed in the Usmait the day before and he left the morning after. He was there for less than a day but it made the entire Usmait to tremble. After Joseph left, the Junlin Group began to issue a series of official orders in succession, covering up what had happened the day before with various excuses of making them blundering. Therefore, some people who had did not know about the truth believed it. Because everything happened too quickly and thus the Junlin Group was once again the largest establishment in Usmait! When Joseph returned to Oplen, Paige drove to the airport to pick him up. Chloe was also there as she was afraid that she would lose her dad once again. “Dad, dad, dad…” In the airport, when Joseph came out, Chloe happily threw herself into Joseph’s arms and kissed him on the face. . “Hey, it’s my little princess. See I promised you and I did not break my promise! I’m back, right? I didn’t lie to you… Look, I even bought you a little toy…” Joseph kissed Chloe and took a yellow duck toy from his pocket with a smile. “Thank you, Dad. I want to fly high. I want to fly high..” Chloe happily took the toy and asked Joseph to lift her up. “Chloe! Dad has just come back. He has been busy for a whole day, and he is tired. Don’t make a scene…” Paige in a black dress and high heels said to Chloe. Joseph directly raised Chloe with both hands and let her sit on his shoulder. He supported her with one hand and held her elegant and slender hand with the other. “It’s fine. I’m not tired. Let’s head back…” Meanwhile, while Joseph was holding Paige’s arm, her heart still skipped a beat. Her face was slightly flushed, and she nodded when she heard that. Then she asked with some worry, “Is your work finished in Usmait?” Paige was really a little worried because she remembered that five years ago when Joseph fled,  he had told her that the person who betrayed him was stationed in Usmait. After Joseph left the day before, Paige was a little worried. After all Paige was also a woman, she always knew that Joseph was skilled in fighting and to her knowledge, he was just an ordinary soldier that had left the military. D Therefore, since Joseph left, she had a lot to worry about, and she didn’t sleep well at night. She was worried that Joseph would be hurt but she also worried that he might end up breaking the law and that would mean that the three of them would not reunite in the near

future. Joseph also saw the worries in her eyes, so he nodded to her with a smile and said, “Don’t worry. I found out that the person had died in a car accident, or else I wouldn’t have come back so soon right?” Joseph emphasized this. After giving it some thought, she realized that Joseph had only stayed there for one night, and then came back the next morning. If he really wanted to deal with that traitor, one night was certainly not enough. She was greatly relieved, and then took Joseph’s hand and comforted him, “Then don’t overthink things. That person has reaped what he sowed. The past is in the past. Don’t think about it anymore…” Joseph nodded with a smile. It was easy to fool his wife. He was also helpless because of his true identity and the things he had done in the Outer Region. If he told all of them to Paige, she would probably be scared out of her wits. For instance, when he was in the Outer Region, he could freely chat and drink with the royal family of a small country and sit on their thrones. Or, if he wanted to meet with the leaders of some foreign countries, the other party would have to make arrangements and so on… He couldn’t tell Paige all of these at this moment. One step at a time. Take it slow. Paige had been staying in these small places all these years and world view had been limited. When she reached Usmait, he would gradually tell her all of these. That way, she wouldn’t have such a hard time comprehending it. For example, in Usmait, Frogua’s military had promoted him back to being a God of War? Isn’t this much better… Joseph smirked. With one hand holding Chloe, and the other holding Paige’s hand, he walked out of the airport. But after they left, someone at the airport suddenly frowned and looked in the direction where they left. He murmured, “Why do I have a feeling that I just saw the princess of Oplen and the protagonist of the Hundred Cities Wedding?” As the man murmured, the people around her suddenly freeze, because they all had the same feeling in their hearts just now. They felt that that family felt a little familiar to them. Because just now Paige was wearing sunglasses and there weren’t many photographs of Joseph at the Hundred Cities Wedding. They exchange looks with each other and they realize that their assumptions were the same as each other.

“My God, it’s really them. The princess of Oplen and her husband, the God of War…” The next moment, among the crowd at the airport, someone suddenly reacted. After a loud shout, he

quickly chased after her. But when they chased after her, Paige had already driven away… On the way home, Joseph sat in the back passenger seat with Chloe in his arms. He glanced at the crowd taking photos of them behind him and said to Paige, “Dear, did you feel like a star just now?” Her heart was beating fast. She answered, “Well, fortunately, we walked fast. I wore sunglasses and changed my hairstyle. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to go outside in the future…” Joseph smiled and played with Chloe’s little yellow duck toy… When the three of them returned top their home. Estella naturally prepared a table filled with delicious dishes. It had been several days since it was the Hundred Cities Wedding but she  still couldn’t pull herself back to her senses. She was still immersed in excitement. Because every time she went out, wherever she went, she would be surrounded by a bunch of old people and they were praising her. Thus she was still so excited. 2 As for Bethany, she did not leave either. Paige forced her to stay and insisted for her to stay for a few more days, thus that was the reason why she was still here. A day before the Hundred Cities Wedding, her dad had told her some of Joseph’s identity and she hasn’t seemed to be able to take it. Moreover, she always felt that Joseph wasn’t just as simple as Frogua’s God of War. This was due to the fact that Felix the God of War of the central region was way too respectful to Joseph. And her dad, the richest man in Apren City and Logan, Dennis, Ernie were far too respectful to Joseph. It was as if they were talking to their superior. Moreover, she had heard from Paige the day before that Joseph was heading to Usmait City. Her father, Logan, was in Usmait. She had received news that Dennis and Ernie had also gone to Usmait City. The night before, Bethany’s sixth sense tingled. And she suddenly go searching for Usmait’s news. At first glance, she was so scared that her heart skipped a beat. The day before, a huge incident happened in Usmait. The largest establishment in Usmait, the Junlin Group, changed overnight and was surrounded and killed by mysterious forces. At midnight, there was another huge change in the Junlin Group, and it recovered overnight as if nothing had happened… Although Bethany saw from the news that there was something wrong with the management of Junlin Group, and the fire was due to the worker’s fault but she did not believe any of that! Because! She saw her father at the scene! Yes, it was her father Logan! And Dennis and Ernie! So at this very moment, when Bethany was watching him return to Oplen that morning and sat at the table with her to eat, she had great doubts. After Joseph sat down, she couldn’t help staring at Joseph. This man was too mysterious and cool-headed as if he didn’t care much about losing his title as God of War... Joseph noticed that Bethany, who was sitting opposite him, had been peeking at him. He couldn’t help but ask Bethany with a smile, “Miss Parry, why are you always staring at me? What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?” “No… No. I just heard that there was a huge incident in Usmait. The largest establishment in Usmait, the Junlin Group, had a big change. I want to ask you if you have heard of that…” Bethany pretended to ask Joseph inadvertently. When Joseph heard this, his pupils shrank, and he thought in his heart that this woman was so smart. Then he smiled and shook his head at Bethany and said, “Oh, I don’t know. I went to Usmait last night and drank with a few friends. I drank a little too much and fell asleep after drinking. I came back this morning, so I didn’t pay much attention to the news… What happened, Miss Parry? Do you keep up with the news?” “Oh… No, no, I just saw something on the news. You were also in Usmait yesterday, so I asked casually… ” Bethany hurriedly answered, and then lowered her head to eat. Meanwhile, Paige said to Bethany with a smile, “Bethany, Joseph went to Usmait this time to look for someone. Maybe he didn’t pay much attention to the news. Well, let’s eat…” Bethany lowered her head and hummed. However, she was overwhelmed by the doubts she had in her heart. Because when she stared at Joseph just now, she caught a minor detail. It was that Joseph paused for a moment before answering her question. Moreover, such a big incident happened in Usmait, and the whole city was covered by smoke. How could Joseph, who had stayed in Usmait for a day, not be aware of such a thing? This was not logical at all! Most importantly, she found her father, Logan, and Dennis, in a photo at the Junlin Group scene!

“If, Joseph was the person behind all this and then he was someone truly to be feared…” Bethany’s heart was thumping uncontrollably. Joseph was too confident. He was full of confidence, none of it was him pretending to be confident. His temperament and aura were too strong…
