The Rise of Dragon Temple By Wu Xia

Chapter 62
What kind of people were gathered together? At this moment, at the gate of the venue, the direct descendants of the Mooney
family were nervously kneeling on the ground. Leonard, Dominic, Tommy, Lily, Maxton... And also Harrison and Rory from the
Shelton family. Beside them were more than a hundred fully armed soldiers from the military, guarding them. When the people
around the venue saw those from the Mooney family, they instantly recalled the scene of them bullying Paige at the wedding.
Therefore, when they gazed upon the Mooneys, the crowd seemed very unfriendly. If it weren’t for the soldiers around them
blocking them, the Mooneys would have been beaten up. However, despite soldiers blocking them, some people still got a bunch
of rotten fruits from nowhere and threw them directly at the people from the Mooney family. Lily and Maxton, who had slapped
Paige at the Mooney family banquet previously, were hit by the fruits the most. The two of them were kneeling on the ground with
their heads down, not daring to move an inch. In fact, when Leonard had asked the Mooney family to come and apologize to
Joseph earlier, Lily had been very reluctant. She couldn’t bring herself to do so. However, she didn’t dare to not go. Only she
herself knew how she had treated Paige in the past few years. Paige was silly and sweet, but Joseph, as the God of War, was
not so easy to fool. In other words, Joseph didn’t need to destroy Lily personally. All he needed was to just say a few words... At
this moment, the people of the Mooney family and the Shelton family were kneeling at the door full of regret and fear. In the
courtyard, Joseph, Paige, and the other big shots from Oplen namely Dennis, Tang Yun, Ernie, and Felix, the God of War in the
Central Region, were talking to each other. The atmosphere between the two places was a huge contrast. The most excited
person was Joseph’s mother in-law, Estella. She was very pleased with her son-in-law. She kept pulling Paige behind her and
kept whispering to her. “Paige, listen to me. You are officially married to Joseph today. Go and get your marriage certificate in the
afternoon. In the future, you must be good to Joseph.
Your cooking is not up to par, so learn well. You also need to keep your house tidy. Joseph is busy out there, so you should
maintain your household well. Do you
understand? If you treat Joseph badly in the future and flaunt your identity
everywhere, I will not spare you!” Estella said to Paige very seriously. Her expression and tone were as if she was afraid that
Paige would lose Joseph. After listening to this, Paige was shocked. She looked at Estella with her mouth wide open and said,
“Mom, did you lose your memory? I am your daughter, okay? How could you side him so much? Joseph is busy, but I also have
to go out to work in future. Besides, Mom, your attitude has changed too fast, hasn’t it? Didn’t you just say that you wouldn’t let
me marry Joseph?” Hearing that, Estella’s body trembled and she refused to admit it. “Did I say that? Who heard what I said?
Paige, don’t frame me. I told you from the beginning that Joseph was the best son-in-law! You might have heard it wrong... How
could I say that...” Hearing Estella’s words, Paige felt speechless. But then she shook her head and smiled. It was better for her

mother to be satisfied with Joseph, wasn’t it... While Paige was ruminating on this, Estella, who had been teaching her a lesson
so seriously then hurried to Joseph’s side and chatted with him with a smile... “Er...” The corner of Paige’s mouth twitched twice.
“Mom, do you have to be so materialistic?” She couldn’t help but pat her mother’s forehead. Paige then lowered her head and
didn’t dare to look at Tang Yun, Dennis, and the others. These guests were all VIPs in Oplen. “They are being so respectful to
you all because of Joseph, okay?” Paige whispered internally, sighing at Estella’s behavior. “Mr. Dawson, I’ve already ordered
the food in the Mirage Hotel. Shall we go now? It’s almost noon. What do you think?” Dennis said respectfully to Joseph. After
thinking for a while, Joseph said, “Well, okay, let’s have a meal together...”
walked in the middle, with Estella and Yahir beside them. Felix, Dennis, Ernie, Logan, Bethany, and others were outside... The
identity and status of this group of people were so powerful, and now they were gathered together... At this moment, when
Joseph and Paige walked out of the venue, hundreds of soldiers of the Central Region outside the gates all saluted Joseph.
Their eyes were full of enthusiasm because the God of War in front of them was a real God of War who had been fighting for his
life in the outer regions! “M-Mr. Dawson, please... please hold on..” Just as Joseph and the others were about to leave for the
wedding car outside, Leonard, who was kneeling on one side, finally opened his mouth with difficulty. Joseph didn’t want to pay
attention to that snobbish Leonard, but he still paused for a moment. In a few days, he would leave here, and Paige and Chloe
would also leave in the future. So it was better to solve these matters completely. So Joseph looked at Leonard and asked with a
sneer, “Huh, Mr. Mooney, what can I do for you?”
At this moment, when Leonard looked at Joseph again, his heart was full of
emotions and regret. He didn’t care about it. He was already elderly and close to the end of his life. However, the Mooney family
that he had built had lost a great opportunity, and it was very likely that they were doomed. Because on his way here just now, all
the companies that cooperated with the Mooney family in Oplen
had already terminated contracts with them and were going to sue them. In other words, if Joseph didn’t forgive the Mooneys
now, those people would easily make the Mooney family bankrupt! At this moment, although Leonard had already known that
with Joseph’s decisive character, he would definitely not forgive them. But Leonard still asked Joseph, despite the small shred of
hope, “Mr. Dawson, you, can you still forgive us? If you can forgive us, I will immediately hand over the company to Paige and
the position of the head of the Mooney family to Yahir. What do you think? Can you still forgive us?” When Joseph heard this, the
sneer on his face became more intense. He took a deep look at Leonard and said slowly, “Leonard, what do you think? Do you
think I will forgive you?” Joseph sneered disdainfully. Leonard felt his heart wilt, and he nodded bitterly... Joseph took a deep
breath and continued to look at Leonard. “Leonard, as the head of the family, you are not stupid. On the contrary, you are very
smart. You have noticed it since the first time I secretly helped Paige, haven’t you?” Leonard nodded bitterly again. Yes, he had
noticed it a long time ago. Otherwise, he would not have asked Paige to ask Joseph out that day. Joseph also nodded and

looked at Leonard again, saying, “That day at the hotel, I gave you a chance, and I also gave you many chances. All the
problems of your Mooney family have been solved. Leonard, even if I did not take action, with the help of so many other
companies, would you think it was hard for your family to become the top wealthy family in Oplen?”
The regret in Leonard’s eyes became more intense, and he shook his head more bitterly. “Yes, I got the cooperation of the
Gempoint Group, the Mysticorps Group, and the other top companies in Oplen at the same time. As long as my family had
enough time to digest it, why should I worry?” But alas, Leonard had missed the golden opportunity... Joseph continued,
“Leonard, why are you so displeased? Why...” After saying that, Joseph wanted to continue walking forward, but Dominic, who
was kneeling beside Leonard, suddenly begged Joseph, “Mr. Dawson, Mr. Dawson, please stop for a while. I apologize to you on
behalf of my son, Max... Our deepest apologies to Paige...” Lily’s father, Tommy, also hurriedly kowtowed to Joseph and said,
“Mr. Dawson, I apologize to you and Paige for daughter Lily. Please forgive us...” On the other side, Harrison and Rory were also
begging for mercy from Joseph... Seeing this miserable scene, Paige couldn’t bear to turn her head away. After all, she was too
kind-hearted. Even for these cold blooded people, she felt a little pity for them. So she couldn’t help but look at Joseph with a
pleading look in her eyes.
Joseph frowned slightly. It was very uncomfortable for him to beg for mercy for these people. With a loud buzz, an aura of
hostility burst out from his body. He said to Leonard, Dominic, Tommy, and Harrison and Rory, “Did I say you could apologize to
me and kneel here? Huh? Did I say that?” Then Joseph sneered and ignored these people. He then pulled Paige into the bridal
car. Estella and Yahir also sneered and got into another vehicle and left. If they had known what would happen today, they
wouldn’t have done it at the beginning. At this moment, when Dominic and Harrison saw that Joseph had left, they were
completely desperate. Leonard seemed to have completely aged. He stood up and left, trembling. He didn’t say a word. In fact,
when Maxton forced Leonard to give the vice presidency of the company to Lily, Leonard refused it. He really refused it. But
Leonard’s orders fell on deaf ears in the Mooney family. In fact, the person in charge had become Maxton... Leonard had started
the Mooney family’s glory, but since there was no one good left in the younger generation, it was better that the family was ruined
this way. It was better than having the family destroyed and also deaths in the family later on. When Leonard left, he glanced at
Maxton and sneered. These were the two people who had always thought that they could carry forward the Mooney family. They
did have abilities, but their hearts were evil! Leonard left, but those people of the Mooney family were stunned on the spot. Now
they stopped kneeling and sat directly on the ground. Without Joseph, they couldn’t be bothered to pretend. At this time, Dennis
walked to the front of the pale-faced Harrison. He squatted down and tidied up his clothes and said, “Huh, Harrison, why do you
think the Shelton family wants to get involved in this mess? Or do you really think that you can be on equal footing with me and
Ernie just because you have a deputy general of the Eagle Troop in your family?” “No... I don’t dare. I, I have never thought
about it like that, and I don’t dare to think about it...” Harrison quickly lowered his head and said to Dennis. He was not stupid.
The moment Joseph left, Harrison knew that the time to settle accounts had come. And the person who would do that was

Dennis! He was the richest man in Oplen and the most powerful person in the business circle of Oplen. Dennis continued to say
with a sneer, “Well, don’t talk nonsense. Although you didn’t directly hurt Miss Mooney, Lily also took advantage of your power.
Since you didn’t get involved directly, then you can be spared from death. All your property companies will be confiscated, but
you and your son can live. Is that okay?” Harrison’s eyes were filled with struggles and he still wanted to ask for something. But
in the end, he sighed deeply and said, “Okay...”
Then he stood up and left like a zombie, just like Leonard. He lost the bet. He put all his hopes on Maxton. He chose the wrong
player and stood on the wrong team. The destruction of the Shelton family was the price he paid for that. “Mr. Drake, please
listen to my explanation. I broke up with Lily last night. I really broke up with her last night...” Rory was still trying to explain to
Dennis, but Dennis ignored him and left. For an old fox like Dennis, he could see through Rory’s ridiculous shrewdness at a
glance. Rory’s performance made Dennis even more disdainful. The Shelton family had such a foolish descendant, and there
would be no chance for them to rise again in the future... After Dennis left, Ernie sneered at Tommy and the others. He walked
up to Tommy and gave him a deep look, saying, “Oh, Tommy, I’ve heard of you. It seems that we’ve met once before, right? Huh,
you really have a good daughter. You not only chased Miss Mooney away, but you even pulled Maxton up in status, making him
a deputy general of the Eagle Troop. Your daughter is really amazing. Huh, she not only destroyed the Mooney family but even
your future is also ruined...” Ernie then turned around and left. But after a few steps, Ernie looked at the desperate Rory, pointed
at him and said meaningfully to Tommy, “Oh, by the way, thinking about your family, your daughter is really amazing. I really
admire her... Her heart is so evil! Tsk, tsk, tsk.” After Ernie left, the God of War of the Central Region, Felix, came to Maxton,
who was kneeling on the ground. Maxton was the only one who was still kneeling. When he saw Felix, Maxton looked at Felix
with tears all over his face and pleaded, “My lord...” “Humph! You are so short-sighted! You don’t even know that you have been
used! You are dismissed from the military, and your skills will be removed!” After Felix finished speaking, he slammed his palm
on Maxton’s shoulder. Maxton spat out a big mouthful of blood, and his aura dropped to the extreme at this moment. His whole
person fell backward... His battle skills were now gone, and his future was ruined. Maxton was full of remorse and hatred! After
Felix left, Maxton and Rory staggered to their feet. The two of them walked towards Lily. Both of them had been used by this
woman. All of this was caused by this woman’s jealousy! It was all because she was jealous of Paige! It was she who told the
media in Oplen that Paige had given birth to a baby out of wedlock five years ago. Lily was so vicious... “I let you scheme
against me! I can’t believe it!” In a fit of rage, Rory took out a dagger and slashed it across Lily’s face. After a few slashes, Lily’s
heavily made-up face was completely disfigured. “Arghh...” Lily came back to her senses and desperately covered her face. She
screamed miserably! Disfiguring her... This was worse than killing her “Arghh... Paige! Joseph, I will never let you off in this life.
I will never let you off in this life...” Lily cursed resentfully as she ran. Yes, the hatred in her heart and the hatred for Paige and
Joseph had reached an extreme. All the people around her were cursing her, the employees, relatives, fiance, and brother who
had always loved her. At this moment, everyone vented their anger

that was left was deep despise, and it would manifest into a real deep grudge... “Paige, sooner or later, I will destroy your face
with my own hands, and then kill you with my own hands, argghhh..” In a deserted alley, Lily’s hoarse voice was like that of a wild
beast. However, in the next moment, there was a slight sound, followed by the sound of knives piercing flesh one after another.
Lily only felt a sharp pain in her chest. She looked down in disbelief, and then saw a bright clean knife stabbing in and out of her
chest, crushing her heart into pieces... “Who... is it...” The next moment, Lily turned around with great difficulty, and then she
saw a stranger. His eyes were full of disdain as he said, “Oh, you want to take revenge on Miss Mooney and our Lord? You’re
really ignorant. You’re overestimating yourself!” “L-Lord?” Lily looked at the man in front of her in confusion. This man was Alpha
1. He had a strength similar to the God of War’s peak power. If he killed an ordinary person, it would be difficult for even Felix to
find him, let alone Maxton. At this moment, Alpha I looked at Lily as if he was looking at a fool. He said, “Heh, do you really think
that our Lord is merely an outer region God of War?”
“Pfft..” The next moment, the sound of a dagger piercing into flesh could be heard. Alpha 1 leaned his head to Lily’s ear and said
softly, “Haha, of course not. There are dozens of Gods of Wars... And also the most powerful of the Four Heavenly Kings, which
is the Dragon Temple.” “Puff... Lily spat out a mouthful of blood again and fell back with extreme despair. It was not until the
moment of her death that she really felt regret, despair, and endless darkness. It turned out that they really dared to kill her. Lily
was dead. Alpha 1 sneered and disappeared. Not long after he disappeared, the exasperated Maxton chased after him. He had
been chased by Rory earlier, but as soon as he arrived, everything went black and he fell down. The next moment, a knife
appeared in his hand, which was the knife that had just killed Lily... The Dragon Temple had always gone by the principle of
ending evil using evil were ingrained with malice and would not be grateful. Therefore, there may be people in the Mooney
family who can continue to live, but there must be no hope to rise again. There could be no one who could threaten Paige again.
On the roof, Alpha 1 murmured, “Maybe God will forgive you, but that’s his business. Mr. Dawson did not ask me to kill you, but
I’m sorry. I’m a killer. At worst, I can go back and apologize to him... Oh, maybe I’ll be beaten by him again... It would be
painful...” After Alpha 1 finished speaking, he vanished. The Mooney family also rushed over, but when they saw this scene in
front of them, they were all stunned. The two most outstanding people of the Mooney family were finished, completely
doomed...
