Today, the father and son of the Second Branch had said one shocking thing after another. Xi Ye in particular had everyone's hearts wound tight with his earlier statement that the First and Second Branches had reached the time to make a choice.
No one had expected him to say something like this.
Even First Elder Gang Shi was dumbfounded by those words. He stared blankly at Xi Ye, completely unable to figure out what the other man was trying to do.
Lord Boton took a long while to recover as well. He looked at Xi Ye. "What exactly do you mean?"
"I mean exactly what I said." Xi Ye spoke slowly. "Father told me about Raine's situation. I do think this is a rare opportunity. Lord Boton is extremely famous among the Celestial Gods. He and Senior Panda are hailed as the most dazzling rising stars of this era. Moreover, given his background, Senior Borton's potential is even greater!"
"He is the representative chosen by the Abyss, the first attempt by an Abyssal Demon to become a Celestial God. If he succeeds, the significance will be extraordinary. As for him establishing the Tenth Legion and hiring Raine as its Legion Commander, that is also a message to the outside world: even the disciples of non-Abyssal Demon factions can be valued within his forces. This opportunity is one in a billion. It is indeed extremely rare for Raine to encounter it. If he succeeds, it is not impossible for him to soar into the heavens!"
Everyone exchanged strange looks. The First Branch had already told them all these things during their campaign, so none of it was unfamiliar. But hearing them from Xi Ye, the direct eldest son of the Second Branch, made it incredibly strange.
"You really think so?"
