When Zhuang Herui spoke, Xiao Yi was rather dissatisfied with Zhuang Herui's attitude.
Zhuang Herui's words seemed as though Han Ming, as the Saint Creator, was bestowing rewards upon the Emperor Beast Court.
Qixing's assistance to the Emperor Beast Court was far more substantial, yet Fang Mu never exhibited such arrogance.
Without Qixing's help, the Emperor Beast Court would still be suffering from severe pollution.
No matter how arrogant Zhuang Herui's attitude was, Xiao Yi would still thank Zhuang Herui and the entire Ten-thousand Nations Federation for the favor Han Ming graciously offered.
However, now that the Emperor Beast Court's pollution issue had been completely resolved, even if Xiao Yi intended to maintain good relations with the Ten-thousand Nations Federation, he would no longer accept this favor.
Because once a favor is accepted, it must be repaid.
