At the same time, the chaos before him was giving Zhong Changming a major headache.
In terms of strength, he was an Earth Immortal. In terms of status, he was an executive vice chairman with real power. With Xia Huosong staying out of affairs, he effectively had control of the entire Spring City.
By any measure, he had the power to resolve the mess before him with ease.
But in reality, things were nowhere near that simple. Especially in the arena of power, whenever a problem arose, it was always tangled up in complications.
He could slap Zuo Xinghai and vent Xu Yi's anger, but getting rid of Zuo Xinghai and wiping out the Sea of Stars Alliance would be a great deal more difficult.
That was because new vines had already taken root behind the Sea of Stars Alliance and Zuo Xinghai, and he couldn't afford to ignore them.
Of course, if Xu Yi insisted on pursuing the matter, he would certainly find a way to let the young man vent his anger. It would just bring a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Now that Xu Yi's tone had clearly softened, Zhong Changming was only too happy to see it.
He said, "In your opinion, Fellow Daoist Xu, what should we do?"
The words "Fellow Daoist Xu" made Zuo Xinghai, Chen Sihai, and the others shudder.
An Earth Immortal powerhouse, the head of Spring City, was actually addressing a First Realm Human Immortal as "Fellow Daoist." Even if this man was a white-grade Star Refining Master, that was going too far, wasn't it?
Xu Yi fixed his gaze on Zuo Xinghai. "Alliance Leader Zuo, we'll settle this score slowly. I'm exhausted today. I'll come to your door another day and settle it then." With that, he left on his own.
