The Rise of Dragon Temple By Wu Xia

Chapter 17

“Should we make this gamble?” Logan thought. Once they killed Joseph, the Kennedy family would inevitably attack the Parry family. That was for sure. With a deep frown, Logan subconsciously lit a cigarette as he could not make up his mind. At this moment, someone opened the door to the study. Bethany immediately kneeled on the ground, which startled Logan. “What are you doing?” Logan said discontentedly, “Hurry up and get up!” “Dad, I know that you are in a dilemma, and I am no fool. I know what you’re thinking about, but the Kennedy family has been coveting our family for a long time. Only one of our families can continue to thrive in this place, and they will never let us go.” Bethany continued, “Even if you want to continue to endure, will Brandon give us time?” Although Bethany’s words were reasonable, Logan replied, “Beth, the Parry family will be finished if we lose to the Kennedy family this time.” Bethany smiled bitterly. How could she not understand this? “Dad, allow me to be frank. Haven’t we lost a long time ago? With the rise of Brandon and the Kennedy family, we’ve been defeated.” Logan’s body trembled, and his eyes were dull. “Everyone knows that I’ve protected Paige for three days. What use is there for us to deny this fact? If we keep dodging the battles, the Kennedy family may overstep their boundaries even more in the future.” Logan widened his eyes in shock, “Did you allow her to stay here for three days?” Bethany nodded. “You’re a complete fool… Logan could not help but let out a furious roar before sighing heavily once more. “I’m sorry.” Bethany felt guilty. “I did not intend to trouble you, but I did not do it solely to protect Paig. I also want to let you know that we have no other way out.” “You’ve conceded many times in the past. Even so, will the Kennedy family let us off so easily? Shouldn’t we plan for our future?” Logan held a blank expression. He did not expect that this daughter would be so sensible and intelligent. “Indeed… It seems that we have no other way out.”

After a long silence, Logan put out his cigarette and slowly stood up while exuding an imposing aura. “Inform all the elders in Parry family to assemble for an emergency meeting. Gather all our forces!” Logan was no longer hesitant. “Didn’t Brandon say that no one was allowed to interfere? I’d like to see if the Kennedy family is truly able to do as they wish in this city.” Bethany’s body trembled, and then she suddenly raised her head. She finally noticed a long-lost sharpness and aggressiveness on her father’s face. “The people of Apren City seem to have forgotten that the Parry family had always been the leader in this city. Who are the Kennedies?” Logan taunted.

Kennedy and Parry families were making moves respectively. As such, everyone in the Police Department was worried. The Kennedy family had just left, yet the Parry family arrived next. It seemed that it would be a long, busy night ahead. Following the actions of the Kennedy family, the Parry family, and the Police Department, the entire Apren City seemed slightly different. It was as if dark clouds were looming over a city that was about to be destroyed. All the highly-ranked officials felt extremely stressed. The Kennedy family was the first

family first had a conflict with Joseph, then the Parry family. Actually, I did not expect that the Parry family would get involved in this matter. However, while Logan is no longer spineless, he is truly a fortunate man… Perhaps he doesn’t even know yet, but his decision to get involved tonight is a blessing from his ancestors.” “Sir, I don’t quite understand what you mean. The Parries may not be able to defeat the Kennedies this time.” Toby was puzzled. Samuel smiled in response. “For the time being, you will be on guard. I will come over later. Tonight is a great opportunity for young people to broaden their horizons. Perhaps you might not even have such a good opportunity in the future. Watch carefully. Don’t worry about anything now. We will talk about it when I come over.” Toby was full of curiosity, but Samuel had already hung up. “The Parries… Blessing from his ancestors? Is this a good opportunity for young people to broaden our horizons?”
