Liu Yuan's first letter read:
"Brother Ji, I hope you're well. I found a Secret Realm near Shang Mountain. There may be treasures inside that could help with Golden Core Formation. How about we explore it together?"

And if not before, certainly after Liu Yuan formed his Golden Core.
Ji Yuan then turned to Ran Kui's letter.
