The Strongest?
Xi Ye was stunned.
He was far from ignorant of the Borton Faction's situation. On the contrary, he understood it extremely well. Back when he had attended a gathering at Celestial God Academy, Wine Immortal had told him to watch out for Borton. He had already sensed then that he was being watched.
