Ji Busheng was stating facts, but Guyue and Xia Nishang merely smiled—who didn't know such things?
Xia Nishang even said bluntly, "That's good. With at least two High-Grade Golden Cores, Senior Guyue and I won't need to fight over them."
"You can't let your guard down," Ji Busheng said anxiously. "We need to carefully plan this ambush. After all, five Golden Cores failed to ambush Feng Mountain Lord. We only have three Golden Cores—don't let us botch the ambush instead."
Xia Nishang glanced at him disdainfully. "What you said is true, but... comparing yourself to Feng Jun? You simply don't measure up."

The Red Phoenix Sect had nine registered Golden Cores, five elderly elders, four consecrated cultivators, three protectors, and one hidden Nascent Soul. In total, it had twenty-one Golden Cores and one Nascent Soul.
