The other three didn't know how to answer Mo Fou's question. Each of them had their own ulterior motives, so it wasn't convenient for them to express their opinions.
Logically speaking, exploring a secret territory should depend on one's own abilities. Whoever had better abilities and luck would get the most benefits. This was an unwritten rule.
However, this Lost Castle was so strange. If the four of them didn't cooperate with each other, no one could guarantee that they would be able to smoothly dig out the ultimate secret of the Lost Castle.
Moreover, there was someone who had arrived earlier than them. This was a formidable enemy hiding in the dark.
Later on, there might be someone else who would break in.
Once they entered the Lost Castle, their genius halo in the Abandoned Land of the Gods and their tyrannical ways in Jade Luo Nation would all be useless.
Here, there was only cruel competition. They would either have the last laugh, leave with their tails between their legs, or be buried here.
Even an ordinary rogue cultivator in Jade Luo Nation could be a fatal threat in this strange place.
Fei Yizhen murmured, "Brother Mo, someone arrived earlier than us. This means there's someone more terrifying than us. If we cancel our cooperation and go our own way, I'm afraid we'll be defeated one by one. "
Defeated one by one?
Ji Gengxie sneered, "Old Fei, since when did you become so useless? Aren't you boosting other people's morale and diminishing your own? "
Fei Yizhen snorted, "That rogue cultivator escaped right under your nose. You keep saying that you want to kill him, but until now, you haven't even gotten a single strand of his hair. If he was the first one to arrive here, do you think he would have been able to coexist with us? "
This matter had undoubtedly touched Ji Gengxie's sore spot.
Ji Gengxie's face darkened, "How could that kid have the guts to enter the Lost Castle? I'm guessing he would have fled long ago and left the Lost Field. "
At this time, Qi Xuan laughed strangely, "Ji Gengxie, you were the one who proposed the bet. Now we've entered the Lost Castle. You haven't even seen that kid's shadow. This bet, you seem to have already … "
Ji Gengxie said coldly, "As long as we haven't left the Lost Castle, this bet isn't over. Moreover, if that kid had fled long ago, this bet naturally doesn't count. "
Qi Xuan was stunned. "Why not? Couldn't he just run away? I remember that the bet we made was that you would definitely be able to kill that kid. "
Ji Gengxie was at a loss for words.
Along the way, he had been searching for Qin Yi with his evil spirits, trying to hunt him down. But he didn't find anything.
Even after they entered the Lost Castle, they still couldn't find any clues. It was precisely because Ji Gengxie felt that he had lost face that he put in so much effort to enter the Lost Castle. Using the evil spirits he brought along, he searched along the way and sacrificed a large number of evil birds. Only then did he comprehend the mystery of the camouflage technique, successfully comprehending it and entering the Lost Castle.
Of course, the layout of the Lost Field was very unique.
The route that Ji Gengxie and the others took was completely different from Qin Yi's. The six ruins they encountered were actually not the same six ruins.
However, the Lost Field was boundless, and there were a total of forty-eight ruins. In other words, there were a total of eight routes leading to the Lost Castle.
Of course, these eight routes all led to the same destination.
Qin Yi, Xia Ji, and Ji Gengxie had taken different routes, so it was impossible for them to meet each other along the way.
At this time, Mo Fou stood up and acted as a peacemaker. "Qi Xuan, as long as you haven't left the Lost Castle or the Lost Field, your bet isn't over. Therefore, you don't need to announce your victory in advance. "
Mo Fou was being fair on the surface.
Of course, Qi Xuan had nothing to say, and Ji Gengxie would definitely be grateful to him.
"Alright, I'll listen to Brother Mo. However, once we leave the Lost Castle, we still have to honor our bet. "Qi Xuan's tone was as if he had predicted that Ji Gengxie would lose.
Ji Gengxie was enraged. "Do you think you've won?"
"Shut up! If you still want to fight among yourselves after entering the Lost Castle, I advise you not to go in. Otherwise, you might not even know how you died. "
Mo Fou's tone was displeased.
The other two were stern. Since Mo Fou had spoken, they had to give him some face.
Most importantly, Mo Fou's words had enlightened them, calming their overheated minds.
Indeed, the Lost Castle wasn't an ordinary place. Not to mention the possibility of enemies lurking in the dark, even if there weren't any enemies, the strangeness of this Lost Castle was enough to put them in trouble.
"In my opinion, we should continue to cooperate. If we get something, we will share it equally. What do you think? "Fei Yizhen suggested.
Ji Gengxie and Qi Xuan didn't say anything, just looking at Mo Fou.
Mo Fou contemplated, "Our God Forsaken Land is better than the Yan Luo Region because we don't have a fierce internal conflict like the seven countries in the Yan Luo Region. Although there is a big competition between the big forces, when it's necessary, we can always put down our prejudice and cooperate with each other. In this Lost Castle, I think it's wiser to cooperate than to go our separate ways. "
Qi Xuan nodded. "I'll listen to Brother Mo."
Although Ji Gengxie wasn't willing, considering the bet, he nodded. "Alright, then we'll continue to cooperate. You guys are always suspicious. You think that he's the first one to arrive. You forgot about another person. "
"Who?" Fei Yizhen was surprised.
"Saintess Xia Ji?" Mo Fou frowned, blurting out.
Qi Xuan shook his head. "Impossible! We all know Xia Ji's competence. She's almost as strong as us. She's alone while the four of us join hands. It doesn't make sense for her to arrive earlier than us. "
Fei Yizhen said, "Is it possible that she's from the Yin-Yang Academy of the Jade Luo Nation? They're the local tyrants. Perhaps they have more information about this Lost Castle that we don't know? "
His words made the others nod in agreement.
"I heard that the Lost Castle opens every sixty-four years. Until now, no one has ever found out the secret of this place. Even if the Yin-Yang Academy of the Jade Luo Nation has more information than us, it can't be much more than us. " Mo Fou said faintly, "Today, the Jade Luo Nation is under the control of the Green Lotus Cult. The so-called Yin-Yang Academy of the Jade Luo Nation is just Xia Ji's puppets."
Mo Fou pondered for a while, then said, "But this Saintess Xia Ji, didn't you notice that her innate talent and competence are higher than the rumors?"
