"Now that things have come to this, only you can quell this storm."

Whatever decision you make, we will support you to the end.

Wang Zheng looked serious.

"good."

Ye Qiu didn't say much, but stepped forward to the front.

After seeing Ye Qiu's actions, everyone's gaze involuntarily fell on Ye Qiu.

All the noise fell silent at that moment.

Only online, in various live streaming rooms, did the excitement among netizens not decrease but increase.

"Emperor Wu has intervened; I wonder how he will handle this matter."

"Alas, half of the cultivation families and sects in the Great Xia Dynasty advocate for new laws, so even Emperor Wu will probably find it difficult."

"Those powerful families and sects are disgusting."

"Too domineering."

"We await Emperor Wu's decision."

"I believe in Emperor Wu. He has never let us down along the way."

"If those powerful families and sects dare to put pressure on our Martial Emperor, then our two billion people of Great Xia will crush them. I refuse to believe they are truly invincible."

Such remarks have gone viral online.

At the scene, Ye Qiu stood with his hands behind his back, glanced around, and then calmly said, "I have had everyone's suggestions registered."

I see that a large portion of the people oppose the new law, with the reactions from the Ascension Gate and Cloud Immortal Palace being particularly vehement. Could we please invite the two of you to come out and speak with us now?

"Of course." Qin Lie stood up and took a few steps forward.

Yunmo from Yunxian Palace also followed Qin Lie with a smile, saying, "Emperor Wu, you are wise and mighty, and you will surely make the right choice."

"Of course, you don't need to tell me how wise and powerful you are, the whole world knows it," Ye Qiu said with a smile.

His simple sentence immediately made the atmosphere seem more relaxed.

Then, Ye Qiu changed the subject and asked, "If I insist on not changing the new law, what do you two think will happen?"

Upon hearing this question, Yunmo immediately replied without hesitation: "This will stifle the development of cultivation families and sects. If the new law is not changed, everyone will have many complaints."

"Why would you suppress it? I don't quite understand. Explain it to me in detail in front of the whole world." Ye Qiu stared at Yun Mo.

Yunmo looked at Qin Lie and said, "What I said was inaccurate. Please tell me, Brother Qin Lie."

"Okay." Qin Lie wasn't afraid at all and immediately said loudly, "I think high-quality resources should be given priority to sects and aristocratic families, because only when sects and aristocratic families become strong can they protect ordinary people."

However, during our rise, many ordinary people will inevitably encounter some unfair treatment, but all of this is for the sake of making our Great Xia stronger. Only when we are strong will Great Xia be strong.

Therefore, the new law must be revised; a strong nation must first have a strong top leadership, otherwise, great chaos is inevitable.

"Nonsense!" Minister of Justice Wang Zheng couldn't help but refute, "According to you, your aristocratic families and sects shouldn't even think about getting any resources. If you prioritize the upper echelons, then all the resources will go to Emperor Wu. How can your aristocratic families and sects compare to Emperor Wu?"

"You're just being unreasonable and stubborn. I won't stoop to your level."

Qin Lie was extremely arrogant.

Even when facing the Minister of Justice, he was not afraid at all and did not take Wang Zheng seriously.

Little did he know that Qin Lie's words had already incurred the wrath of the masses.

"This Qin Lie is too arrogant, he spews nonsense."

"If we listen to him, the world will descend into chaos."

"Qin Lie should be killed; he must not be allowed to live."

"The world doesn't belong to their aristocratic families and sects, so why should they monopolize resources?"

"that is."

A powerful wave of opposition erupted at the scene.

Qin Lie didn't care at all and said loudly, "Emperor Wu, I have another request."

Ye Qiu raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, then narrowed his eyes slightly and asked Qin Lie, "Tell me, what is your request?"

Qin Lie replied without hesitation: "Now that spiritual energy is reviving, the world is changing rapidly. Many spiritual mines and rare treasures will appear. As for spiritual mines and the like, no family or clan in Great Xia can interfere with them, otherwise it will chill people's hearts."

We value freedom and respect the strong; what one obtains, one keeps.

Furthermore, in cities where sects and aristocratic families reside, the local government must obey the orders of the families and sects and cooperate in certain actions.

"Then what about your previous proposal that resources obtained by ordinary people should be given to your aristocratic families and sects first? Isn't it supposed to be that whoever gets it gets it?"

Also, regarding the local government's policy of listening to your aristocratic families and sects, how about I give you this position?

Ye Qiu's heart was already filled with murderous intent.

Qin Lie frowned, about to speak, when Wei Tong spoke up: "Emperor Wu, Elder Qin did not mean that. He meant that everyone should unite as one, strengthen the upper levels first, then the lower levels, distinguish between primary and secondary tasks, and develop step by step."

"Does Minister Wei agree with their proposal?"

“I agree,” Wei Tong said. “It is indeed inappropriate for ordinary people to use cultivation resources. Local power should indeed be held by the families of the strongest sects in the area. Only in this way can the world be at peace. After all, times have changed.”

"Of course, we will carry out Emperor Wu's orders unconditionally."

"Well said, then you should kill yourself right now," Ye Qiu said calmly.

"this……"

Wei Tong's expression changed slightly.

"Xia Chen, take down Wei Tong."

Ye Qiu gave the order on the spot.

"yes."

Xia Chen led his men and captured Wei Tong with lightning speed.

Upon seeing this, the onlookers were overjoyed and relieved.

Because they instantly realized that Emperor Wu was clear-headed and would never listen to slander.

"Emperor Wu, why have you arrested me?"

Wei Tong was unconvinced.

Ye Qiu coldly asked, "Throughout the history of our Great Xia Dynasty, we have always prioritized the well-being of the nation and its people. Your proposal is completely contrary to the wisdom of our ancestors and is malicious. Tell me, should you be arrested? I will not only arrest you, but also execute you."

Upon hearing this, Wei Tong turned pale and hurriedly looked at Qin Lie: "Elder Qin, save me."

"Don't worry." Qin Lie replied, then stared at Ye Qiu and said seriously, "Emperor Wu, it's true that the sages of Great Xia valued the common people, but times have changed. A single expert from the outer court could sweep away an entire army. Under these circumstances, if we don't prioritize the interests of the aristocratic families and clans..."

"Shut up." Ye Qiu interrupted Qin Lie: "Your proposals have no regard for the common people whatsoever. They are all selfish and malicious."

"The Great Xia Dynasty cannot tolerate the existence of people like you."

Ye Qiu's eyes were sharp.

"but……"

"But what?" Ye Qiu stood with his hands behind his back, his voice booming: "No matter how eloquent you are, I will never listen to you."

"Great Xia, from ancient times to the present, no matter how the world changes, will always prioritize the common people. Anyone who dares to oppose this will die; not a single one will live, and you, Qin Lie, will be no exception."
