They could also say that they did not know why Qian Liuguang wanted to borrow their people.

This would save them a lot of trouble.

As for the Flame Fox…

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with calculations that would be in their best interest.

To put it bluntly, Master Ling was now an empty shell. Even if he obtained the Flame Fox, he would not be able to snatch it away from them. They could wait for Qian Liuguang to obtain the Flame Fox before snatching it away from him.

A family head said to Qian Liuguang straightforwardly, “Master Ling, I can only loan my people to you. I don’t know what you want to do with them. Even if you expose me in the end, I won’t admit it.”

Qian Liuguang was speechless.

That family head’s shameless words and the unanimous nods of agreement from the other family heads left him speechless.

How could such brainless words be spoken and find the support of so many people?

However, he did not say anything else in the end.

His goal was to send more people to Jun Lin Hall to cause trouble and fluster Qian Jiyun. He wanted to capture Qian Jiyun amidst the chaos and use him to threaten An Jiuyue.

He would not be bothered about anything else.

“Master Hong, why do you think Ling is in such a hurry to deal with Jun Lin Hall?”

After leaving Qian Liuguang’s place, the family heads departed in groups. Most of them were discussing what Qian Liuguang might want from Jun Lin Hall.

“Who knows?”

Master Hong shook his head, a hint of darkness flashing across his eyes. “No matter what he wants, it must be something better than the Flame Fox.”

If it was not something good, why would Qian Liuguang go through so much trouble to come to them just to ask for help?

“Tsk! ”

Upon hearing Master Hong’s reply, that family head clicked his tongue.

“What could these better things be?”

“According to Master Ling, Qian Jiyun is the Demon Heart now. He must possess something unique to the Demon Heart, and it won’t be just one or two things,” Master Hong said in a deep voice.

Every Demon Heart had many things that could be used to deal with the various aristocratic families.

They were treasures that small aristocratic families like them could never obtain.

“Since he’s openly discussing the Flame Fox, he must want something that’s not inferior to it. I wonder what it is,” another family head chimed in.

“It’d be great if I could take a look.”

“You want to know what Ling wants, Master Luo?” Master Hong looked at him, smiling.

“Do you have a way, Master Hong?” Master Luo raised his eyebrows and looked at him with interest.

“I don’t have a way now, but that doesn’t mean I won’t have one in the future.”

Master Hong smiled at Master Luo and the other family heads. The scheming glint in his eyes was evident.

“That’s true!” Master Luo smiled and recalled that Qian Liuguang had borrowed people from them.

They had loaned so many people to Qian Liuguang, which meant that he was surrounded by their people.. Did they really have to depend on Qian Liuguang’s approval if they wished to see something?
