Chapter 2326: Chapter 2326 Blaming Them for Inaction

The heads of the families listened to An Jiuyue’s words, trying to even breathe as quietly as possible.

Heavenly Fire, who isn’t afraid of it recently? Even with their cultivation level, they could unknowingly be wiped out by it.

They had heard that a family head got hit by the Heavenly Fire in his sleep and was burned to the point where not even ashes could be gathered up.

After hearing this news, they didn’t dare to sleep for a long time, fearing the Heavenly Fire would strike their heads, making them vanish like that family head.

Everyone fears death; no one wants to die, but when the Heavenly Fire descends, it’s not up to their wishes not to die.

"As for the specifics of how it was brought about, I won’t discuss it here," An Jiuyue continued, looking at them.

In any case, even if they understood, it would only increase their fear without being able to do anything, so it’s better not to say anything.

"What I want to say is, now the Heavenly Fire won’t descend any longer. I hope starting today, each of you can restrain your families and pacify the people in your respective territories.

Instead of, as before, the disciples of Demon Heart Hall and Jun Lin Hall were all out, while none of you major clans dared to step forward."

Her voice was calm, as if stating the most mundane remarks.

Yet her words struck the hearts of the family heads, sending a chill through them. Is the High Priest Demon Heart blaming them for their inaction?

Indeed, ever since the Heavenly Fire appeared, none of the major clans stepped up to do much but manage their own clans, not caring whether the common people lived or died, as it had little to do with them.

There were so many people in Wulong Mountain that no amount of Heavenly Fire could completely destroy them.

That was their original thought, but hearing the High Priest Demon Heart now instilled fear in them. If they had stood out even for a day or two before, the High Priest might not have felt the need to address them.

"If you major clans lack the resolve to face life and death with the people of Wulong Mountain, then I think there’s no need for your existence on Wulong Mountain."

An Jiuyue spoke again, and this time her words were even more direct.

Hearing this, the faces of the family heads turned pale; they were well aware of how many major clans the former High Priest Demon Heart had destroyed.

If the current High Priest Demon Heart were to get angry, would she also destroy many major clans? Would their clan be among them?

"High Priest, it’s not that we were inactive, but that Heavenly Fire was truly formidable," an elder family head stood up and spoke with difficulty.

Who isn’t afraid of death? The Heavenly Fire doesn’t pick its targets; it just strikes wherever it wants.

If they weren’t careful, it would spell death for them.

So could they really not hide a bit?

Moreover, among those people, while some are pitiful, many are detestable. In Wulong Mountain, they are used to seeing good people bullied to death.

So what reason do they have to help those people? Everyone has their fate, and life and death are determined by the heavens.

"So, the Heavenly Fire no longer exists," An Jiuyue said sternly, her piercing gaze fixed on the family head.
