Chapter 1039: Reduced to Ashes Overnight

What he did not know was that these family heads were all focused on Qian Jiyun’s identity as the Demon Heart!
Qian Jiyun’s demonic energy was already strong enough, and a young man would be even stronger than old men like them. Furthermore, they had also watched him absorb so much demonic energy earlier.
Would they be able to defeat such a person?
Everyone cherished their lives. If they could get along peacefully, why would they have to fight to the death?
Besides, everyone understood Master Ling’s hints about the Long family. However, Young Master Long was not the young lord of the Long family. He could not represent the Long family.
They would not offend Jun Lin Hall and Qian Jiyun because of Young Master Long.
They had loaned the sacrificial warriors to Qian Liuguang because they were afraid that they would be suppressed after Qian Jiyun became the Demon Heart. However, after a few days, they calmed down and thought about it.
Which aristocratic family on Wulong Mountain was never suppressed by others? Even the top Long family would be subjected to joint suppression by other aristocratic families.
Otherwise, the Long family would have dominated Wulong Mountain all these years. So why would they be concerned with Jun Lin Hall, a rising power?
Moreover, they were only from small aristocratic families. Even if Jun Lin Hall decided to make an example out of a few aristocratic families to establish their might, they would be unlikely to choose them to make a show of strength.
“Jun Lin Hall is growing stronger. It looks like they’re going to swallow small aristocratic families like us. Don’t you want to fight back and secure a piece of the world for your families during these turbulent times?
“The Demon Heart has just appeared. Qian Jiyun’s foundation has yet to stabilize. It’s a good opportunity to attack him.”
“Haha…” The family heads laughed when they heard that.
However, they were not laughing at Qian Liuguang’s words. They felt that he was too naive.
“Master Ling, you also know that the Demon Heart has just appeared. Have you forgotten how High Priest Demon Heart reduced those great aristocratic families to ashes overnight?”
“We’re all small and insignificant families. We won’t be of much use during the early stages of these turbulent times.”
“Master Ling, if you’re seeking help to deal with Jun Lin Hall, find someone more qualified. Frankly, we can’t take on such a big responsibility.”
“You said you obtained the tacit approval of the Young Master of the Long family, right? Why don’t you ask the Long family to send people to you?”
“That’s right, that’s right! The Long family is the top family. We can’t possibly measure up to a finger of the Long family, even if we joined forces, can we? It’ll be right to invite them.”
“You… Both of you…” Qian Liuguang was furious.
Were they doing this on purpose? They were deliberately bringing up the Long family! They probably did not believe that young master of the Long family.
To be honest, although he had worked with Young Master Long, he also looked down on him. After all, he lacked the proper status and authority.
“So all of you are unwilling? If that’s the case, don’t be jealous when Young Master Long and I obtain the Flame Fox in the future.”
Since he could not convince these people by mentioning the Long family, he would use other valuable things as bait.
He had always known that the Flame Fox could help its master cultivate demonic energy. However, it was not his business whether these people could obtain it or not.
If they were not greedy, they would not be hooked. If they were hooked, it would be because they were greedy.. They could not blame him for that, right?
