Chapter 278: Forced Buying and Selling, This Is a Good Idea! (1/2)
Kunpeng turned his head and looked at the ancient beasts with the twelve zodiac tokens behind him.
They all looked solemn and said nothing.
This situation really made Kunpeng very uncomfortable.
Obviously, the ancient beasts behind him were waiting for him to express his position.
They were waiting for his attitude.
If he gave in at this time, he would definitely be scolded and break his oath.
But if he confronted them head-on, he might not be the opponent of so many people.
Now, Kunpeng was completely in a dilemma.
"Kunpeng, what should we do now?"
An ancient beast whispered behind Kunpeng.
Kunpeng smiled bitterly, and he didn't know what to do.
But thinking of the blood oath he made, Kunpeng had to admit it.
Immediately, Kunpeng collected his thoughts and looked at Qiongqi coldly: "Since that's the case, it seems there is no room for negotiation."
"It seems that we have to fight!"
Kunpeng's voice was cold, and he clenched his fists, ready to fight at any time.
"It's not that we don't want to talk, but you don't want to talk."
"We have made it very clear just now. The quota to enter the Demon God Temple does not rely on the twelve zodiac tokens, but on strength."
"But you rely on the tokens in your hands and just don't agree."
"It's not that we force you, but you force it."
Qiongqi on this side finished speaking, and secretly clenched his fists, ready to fight at any time.
"Then there's nothing to say."
"Then fight."
Kunpeng shouted, and then his figure suddenly disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was in front of Qiongqi.
He clawed at Qiongqi.
This claw shook the earth and brought gusts of cold wind, and even cracks appeared in the surrounding space. It was obvious that Kunpeng's innate spatial power was used.
Facing the sudden appearance of Kunpeng, Qiongqi was obviously well prepared. He stretched out a pair of wings from his back and protected himself inside.
"Swish!"
A sound that made people's teeth ache came, and Qiongqi took the claw steadily.
The pair of wings behind Qiongqi was not ordinary.
Originally, it was part of his body. After he transformed, he did not fade away, but kept refining it.
After refining it for tens of thousands of years, it has become Qiongqi's most powerful magic weapon.
Qiongqi's pair of wings can attack and defend, and its power is amazing.
There is no problem in putting down Kunpeng's claw.
"If you count carefully, we haven't fought for three thousand years."
"I just want to see if your strength has improved."
"Now it's my turn to take action!"
Qiongqi looked at Kunpeng in front of him and said sinisterly.
Then, the wings behind him flapped, turning into a stream of light and rushing towards Kunpeng.
In this way, Qiongqi and Kunpeng, two peerless ancient beasts, began to fight.
Seeing that Kunpeng and Qiongqi had both taken action, the other ancient beasts were not idle either.
Each of them found their own opponents and rushed towards each other.
For a moment, the whole hall was in chaos.
The light of magic and the roar of magic were shining everywhere.
The fight between so many ancient beasts made the hall seem unstable and a little shaky.
The dozen ancient beasts led by Kunpeng were obviously no match for the eighteen ancient beasts led by Qiongqi.
After all, there was a huge disparity in numbers.
Qiongqi held Kunpeng back, and the other ancient beasts were almost two against one.
How could the ancient beasts with the twelve zodiac tokens withstand this?
Soon, the ancient beasts with the tokens were defeated and were no match at all.
The whole hall had been beaten to pieces at this time, and many people were even injured.
"Brother Kunpeng, please help us."
The ancient beasts with tokens were outnumbered and were no match for them. They were suppressed the whole time.
If they were not a group of more than a dozen people, they would have been defeated one by one.
Knowing that they were far from being opponents, they had no choice but to ask Kunpeng for help.
Although they knew that Kunpeng was fighting a fierce battle with Qiongqi at this time, they had no other choice.
If Kunpeng did not help them, they would probably all die here today.
At this time, Kunpeng, who was fighting with Qiongqi, frowned tightly when he heard the cry for help.
He faced Qiongqi head-on, and although he had the upper hand, he would not be able to end the battle quickly.
If he was distracted at this time, he might be plotted against by Qiongqi.
But those people had made a blood oath to protect them, so he could not ignore them.
Kunpeng was fending off Qiongqi while complaining in his heart.
He was really full of pain and came up with such a thing.
"Kunpeng, you dare to be distracted while fighting with me?"
Qiongqi seized a flaw that Kunpeng revealed and directly hit him with a powerful palm.
Facing Qiongqi's palm, Kunpeng could only take it hard.
Fortunately, his body was strong enough, and this palm only made his breath fluctuate a little, but he was not hurt.
After being hit by Qiongqi, Kunpeng flashed and shuttled through space again, pulling away from Qiongqi.
In another flash, he had come to the side of the mythical beasts with the twelve zodiac tokens.
Seeing Kunpeng appear, the scene immediately calmed down.
All the people on both sides stopped and stared at each other eagerly.
Qiongqi also followed him unhurriedly.
He looked at Kunpeng and the people behind Kunpeng, and sneered: "Kunpeng, no matter how powerful you are, you are no match for so many of us."
"Stand aside and don't interfere in this matter."
"You can rest assured that we will not touch your token."
Qiuji's plan was very clear. He just wanted a zodiac token, not a life-and-death battle with Kunpeng.
Kunpeng is very powerful, and only those who are full will fight him to the death.
As long as Kunpeng withdraws from this struggle, Qiongqi's goal will be achieved.
Without the protection of Kunpeng, those ancient beasts with twelve zodiac tokens would be nothing.
If these people come together, those mythical beasts will definitely die on the spot.
After hearing Qiongqi's words, Kunpeng fell into silence.
To be honest, Qiongqi's words moved him very much.
At this time, he didn't want to care about these bad things. He just wanted to enter the Demon Temple as soon as possible and seize the opportunity to become a god.
He didn't want to care about other things at all.
But he happened to make a blood oath, and no one wanted to break such a vicious oath.
Now, he has to take care of it even if he doesn't want to.
Seeing Kunpeng fell into silence, the ancient beasts behind him who had tokens panicked.
If Kunpeng was really persuaded by Qiongqi to leave them alone, they would definitely have nothing to eat today.

Immediately, these ancient beasts with tokens spoke one by one.
"Kunpeng, don't listen to Qiongqi, you can't ignore us."
"You made a blood oath, are you going to break it?"
"Kunpeng, we stood up because we trusted you. How can you ignore us now?"
"Don't listen to Qiongji's nonsense. As long as we unite together, they won't dare to do anything to us."
...
Listening to these people's words, Kunpeng's brows furrowed even more tightly.
Kunpeng looked back at the mythical beasts with tokens, his eyes cold.
To be honest, these people were very disgusting in his eyes.
When I asked them to come forward, they all hesitated and evaded.
Now Qiongqi is attacking them and starting to use his oath to blackmail himself.
To put it bluntly, there is no difference between these people and Qiongqi.
Even these people are more disgusting than Qiongqi.
At least Qiongqi is a real villain. He directly robs without any moral kidnapping.
But these ancient beasts with the twelve zodiac tokens kidnapped themselves, forcing themselves to protect them.
At this time, Kunpeng felt very regretful, regretting why he had made the blood oath in the first place.
Or the blood oath made for these things.
It's really not worth it.
Seeing Kunpeng's cold gaze, these ancient beasts with twelve zodiac tokens closed their mouths one by one.
A flash of anger flashed in Kunpeng's eyes, and then he turned to look at Qiongqi: "Qiongqi, it's impossible for you to ask me to give up on them."
"After all, I just made a blood oath."
"If you insist on one of you fighting to the death today, then we will have to touch each other."
Kunpeng's voice was low and lonely.
Hearing Kunpeng's words, the mythical beasts who had the twelve zodiac tokens breathed a sigh of relief.
Kunpeng still kept his promise and did not give up on them.
In other words, they still have a glimmer of hope.
Qiongqi looked at Kunpeng and the ancient beasts behind him, his face full of sarcasm.
"There is no point in resisting for these people."
"Why bother."
Qiongqi said calmly, and then looked at Kunpeng.
Still trying to convince Kunpeng with words.
But Kunpeng had made a blood oath after all, and he did not dare to break the oath at this juncture.
No matter what Qiongqi says, he will never change his words.
"Qiongqi, what I made is a blood oath."
"I believe you should be very clear about what the blood oath represents."
"Since I promised to protect them, I can only protect them."
"If I break my oath, I will suffer severe backlash, or even the annihilation of my entire tribe."
"You're going to make me break my oath just by saying a few words. Do you think it's realistic?"
Kunpeng directly said what was in his heart at this time.
He bluntly said that if it weren't for the constraints of the blood oath, he might have ignored these people long ago.
But because of the blood oath, he had to protect these people.
Hearing Kunpeng's words, Qiongqi also nodded slightly.
As a demon clan, he must know the horror of the blood oath, and he also knows Kunpeng's current difficulties.
Qiongqi didn't want to be a direct enemy of Kunpeng, he just wanted to get a zodiac token to enter the Demon Temple.
Not only him, but also so many ancient beasts behind him thought so.
They also don't like to fight and make enemies everywhere.
I just want to give it a try and enter the Demon Temple, and then look for the opportunity to become a god.
If we really continue to force Kunpeng now, I'm afraid it will really be a life-or-death battle by then.
This is not a situation Qiongqi wants to see.
Everyone comes here for the chance to become a god in the Demon Temple, there is no need to kill each other here.
After Qiongqi lowered his head and thought for a while, he looked up at Kunpeng.
"Kunpeng, I know you also have your difficulties."
"But now it's impossible for you not to hand over some tokens. It's impossible for us to just watch you enter the Demon Temple."
"I have a compromise here."
Kunpeng was stunned when he heard Qiongqi's words.
A compromise?
The current situation is so difficult, it would be great if there could be a compromise.
As long as it's not a life and death fight, then the pressure on his shoulders will be much less.
Kunpeng looked at Qiongqi and said, "What kind of compromise method can you come up with?"
When Qiongqi heard this, he didn't show off and said directly: "I know you made a blood oath and must protect these people."
"But what if we don't attack them."
"What I'm talking about now is that the most capable people are the ones who rely on their strength to grab the zodiac tokens. It's really inappropriate."
"What if I buy it?"
Hearing this, Kunpeng was a little confused: "How to buy it?"
Qiongqi smiled calmly: "Financial resources are also part of strength."
"Now those of us who don't have zodiac tokens are bidding individually. Whether it's spiritual crystals or treasures of heaven and earth, as long as what we come up with can impress you."
"That means we buy tokens from those of you who own them."
"After all, some of you are really weak. Even if you enter the Demon Temple, it will probably be a gift. Why not get some benefits and save yourself from dying in the Demon Temple."
Qiongqi talks eloquently.
Their previous plan was to rob them forcefully, but they were afraid that Kunpeng and the other mermaids would break the net, which would make everyone feel uncomfortable.
So Qiongqi changed his thinking and changed from a hard grab to a forced purchase.
Even if they offer some benefits to compensate those who own the tokens, they won't end up leaving empty-handed.
In this way, it will be a little easier to ask people to take out the token, and the face will be better.
Hearing this, Kunpeng nodded slightly.
But he still asked: "What if we don't want to sell it to you?"
Qiongqi smiled coldly: "If you are unwilling to sell it to us, then the only one who can do it is to see Zhenzhang."
"The only thing left is to fight and get the token based on your strength."
Qiongqi's forced purchase of the token was already giving Kunpeng face, and it was a step down for these ancient beasts who had the twelve zodiac tokens.
If these ancient beasts are still so ignorant, then the only way left is to take action.
In the end, if no one is willing to hand over the token, Qiongqi will have to kill him.
After listening to Qiongqi's words, Kunpeng turned his head and looked at the ancient beasts behind him.
"What do you think?"
When Kunpeng said this, he was already giving in. He was almost ready to accept Qiongqi's opinion.
Because there is no better way at the moment, even if we continue to be tough, no one will be able to gain anything.
If we understand now, we can still solve the problem peacefully and even get some benefits.
When it gets dragged behind, not only the token may be lost, but also the life may be lost.
