Secular Immortal of the Nine Realms Chapter 137: Warning

The ancestor of the Great Xia’s emperor?

Fang Chen jogged his memory. The Imperial Xia Clan does seem to have an ancestor named Xia Yun.

Xia Yun chuckled. He turned to Li Daoye and asked, “I heard you’re from Infernoblaze?”

“Indeed.” Li Daoye nodded.
