Zhou Peng was naturally worried. If Qi Yuanming and Guo Shaoqing came to some kind of agreement, he would definitely be at a disadvantage, and the possibility of obtaining the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma would be very slim.
Guo Shaoqing revealed a strange smile when he heard Zhou Peng's question and said, "Of course Brother Qi and I are …"
He purposely dragged out his words.
This situation made everyone's hearts clench, including Zhou Peng. It seemed like Guo Shaoqing and Qi Yuanming had really come to some kind of agreement.
The others naturally didn't want Qi Yuanming and Guo Shaoqing to team up, because the possibility of them getting the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma was also very slim.
Only if the three of them fought on their own would they have a chance to fish in troubled waters.
"Haha, of course we're not together. We just happened to arrive here at the same time." Guo Shaoqing couldn't help but laugh when he saw the expression on Zhou Peng's face.
Given Zhou Peng's strength and status, he had never been fooled like this before. However, because of the other party's status, he could only put on a gloomy face.
Of course, if it weren't for the current situation, given his temper, he would definitely have rushed up to find trouble with Guo Shaoqing.
After saying that, Guo Shaoqing looked at Zhou Peng and said, "Brother Zhou, it was just a joke. Don't mind it."
Zhou Peng snorted coldly. He didn't say anything, but the expression on his face showed his attitude.
Guo Shaoqing didn't mind. Although Zhou Peng was an exceptional genius of the Core Yang Sect, Guo Shaoqing was also a rare genius of the Supreme Sect. Why would he care about Zhou Peng's attitude?
At this moment, Qi Yuanming smiled and said, "Brother Guo and Brother Zhou, don't joke around. Let's get rid of the people around us first. After we get rid of them, we can fight for the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma with our own strength. How about that?"
Guo Shaoqing nodded immediately. "Brother Qi is right."
On the other side, Zhou Peng also nodded without hesitation.
Out of so many people present, the three of them were the strongest. They didn't care about the others at all, so they had long considered the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma to be theirs.
However, when the three of them fought for the Nine Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma, they might give the people around them a chance. Hence, they naturally had to get rid of them just in case.
Looking at the three of them, the surrounding people all retreated in unison. Mo Kui had already retreated more than ten steps earlier, and he still retreated this time.
However, Mo Kui didn't turn around and leave as he was unwilling to see his hard work go to someone else. Instead, he stood on the ground and stared at Guo Shaoqing and the others after taking so many steps back.
Of course, the reason why he dared to stand there was also because the others around him did not turn around and flee. Instead, they were like him, unwilling to give up even though they had retreated far away.
As the saying goes, the more people there are, the braver they are. They all thought that if Guo Shaoqing and the other two didn't find trouble with them first, they would have the opportunity to snatch the Nine-Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma.
Even if Guo Shaoqing and the other two charged at them, they would at least be able to hold them off for a while.
Even though this was very dangerous and they were gambling with their lives, they still made such a choice as they thirsted for the Nine-Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma.
The commotion caused by Mo Kui's pursuit of the Lightning Marten earlier, coupled with the fact that he injured a few people later on, and the arrival of Guo Shaoqing's trio, had already attracted at least 40% of the people who had entered the valleys.
Guo Shaoqing's trio's faces sank when they saw that none of the people around them had left.
Qi Yuanming raised his head and looked at Mo Kui, who was basically the strongest among them.
Everyone thought he would reprimand Mo Kui, but he unexpectedly smiled and said, "Mo Kui, I wasn't targeting you when I called you a clown just now. Please don't take it to heart."
"What are you talking about, Young Master Qi? How could I, Mo Kui, dare to take it to heart?" Mo Kui quickly replied.
Even though he said that, his heart was pounding. He had no idea what exactly Qi Yuanming wanted to do.
As expected, Qi Yuanming's expression immediately changed as soon as this thought appeared in his mind. "Mo Kui, your Mo Clan relies on our Qi Clan in every aspect. Just last month, your father even personally asked me if I could put in a few good words for your Mo Clan in front of my father so that you could obtain those few pieces of land in Liang Mountain. How could you have forgotten so quickly?"
Qi Yuanming paused slightly at this point before he continued, "Or do you want me to go back and tell my father to give those pieces of land to the other clans?"
Mo Kui's expression changed again when he heard Qi Yuanming's words.
What Qi Yuanming said was the truth. Even though the Mo Clan's influence in the Southern Territory was relatively large, it was still far inferior to the Qi Clan. If the Qi Clan really gave those pieces of land to the other clans, it would definitely be a huge blow to the Mo Clan.
Of course, if he could obtain the Nine-Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma, what was a few times more worth of land?
The problem was that the possibility of Mo Kui obtaining the Nine-Orifice Green Hell Ganoderma was extremely low.
"What? What are you still thinking about?" Qi Yuanming's voice suddenly became heavier.
Mo Kui, who had quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart, could only smile bitterly. "Young Master Qi, I, Mo Kui, was too greedy. I'll leave right away."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and walked away.
Qi Yuanming couldn't help but say smugly when he saw Mo Kui leave, "What? Even the strongest Mo Kui has left, and the rest of you still want to follow the Qi Clan? No, you want to go against the Qi Clan, the Core Yang Sect, and the Supreme Sect? "
As Qi Yuanming said this, Guo Shaoqing and Zhou Peng also looked coldly at the people around them.
Many of the people belonged to forces that also relied on the three great forces. Hence, after weighing the pros and cons, they still made a concession and turned around to leave like Mo Kui.
Therefore, almost half of the 200 or so people had left in an instant.
There were still quite a lot of people around, and there were still people approaching from all directions from time to time. Hence, the remaining people still held on with hope.
Guo Shaoqing smiled strangely when he saw this situation. Then, he suddenly shouted, "Kill them!"
His voice was extremely cold. Hearing this, the people around him couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat. They all stared at Guo Shaoqing and the other two. If the three of them charged at them, they would immediately take action.
However, they were wrong. Guo Shaoqing and the other two didn't move. The ones who moved were Guo Shaoqing and Qi Yuanming's subordinates who were mixed in with them.
They didn't realize this at all. Instead, all of their attention was on Guo Shaoqing and the other two. Hence, they were immediately killed by the three of them.
However, since Guo Shaoqing and Qi Yuanming didn't have many subordinates, they only took down a dozen or so people.
