Douluo: Dragon King's Star Devouring Wings

Chapter 637

(I got elbowed, just adding this)
Following Qian Gu Dongfeng and Zang Xin, other cabinet members gradually arrived.

In addition to the cabinet ministers personally appointed by Qian Gu Huang Yu at the time, Qian Gu Dong Feng, Qian Ren Xue, and Chen Han Yu, as the heads of the military, were also required to attend.

Even though Zang Xin was in a gloomy mood, the routine cabinet meeting would not be delayed because of it.

Soon, the cabinet meeting began.

Sitting in the main seat, Qian Gu Huang Yu's gaze swept across the faces of everyone present, and she asked, "Is there anything that needs to be reported or discussed this week?"

Leng Yulai said, "Three days ago, a riot broke out in Dongyang City. That used to be the Shen family's stronghold. The remnants of the Shen family were fighting to the death."

"However, I have personally led the troops to quell the riot. After Shen Qixuan's death, the remaining members of the Shen family are now only a Super Douluo."

Hearing Leng Yulai's words, Leng Yaozhu couldn't help but frown. Although Leng Yulai spoke very casually, everyone present knew the danger involved.

Leng Yulai herself had only just entered the Super Douluo realm, and she was at a disadvantage against veteran Super Douluo in terms of both cultivation and experience.

Leng Yulai's only advantages are her four-word battle armor and four-word soul armor. However, if a Super Douluo really wants to fight to the death, there is still a possibility of a one-for-one exchange.

Qian Gu Huang Yu naturally saw the worry in Leng Yao Zhu's eyes and said, "Yu Lai, well done, but if something like this happens again, let Ming Huang take the blame."

When working, people use job titles, especially when there are outsiders like Zang Xin present, so the way they address each other is naturally more formal.

As the Minister of the Interior, maintaining public order is Leng Yulai's job, and even her older sister Leng Yaozhu can't say anything about it. So, only Qian Gu Huang Yu can say this.

Leng Yulai blinked her beautiful eyes, understanding Qian Gu Huang Yu's meaning. She nodded slightly and said, "I will be careful."

Seeing this, Qian Gu Huang Yu nodded slightly and said, "However, since even the Shen family has been wiped out, there shouldn't be many forces left in the Federation that can still cause trouble."

Qian Renxue said, "After Yu Haosheng and Yu Haoran died, the Yu family lost the ability to cause trouble. Now that Yu Guanzhi has also been executed, even if the remnants of the Yu family want to cause trouble, there is no leader."

"Now that the remnants of the Shen family have been wiped out, as long as the existing Soul Clan manages its own power well, overall stability can be maintained."

As she spoke, Qian Renxue glanced at Zang Xin, seemingly unintentionally.

In fact, Qian Renxue was somewhat dissatisfied that Qian Gu Huang Yu had not completely wiped out the Tang Clan and Shrek Academy.

She felt nothing but disgust towards these two forces that had once caused her family's ruin.

However, Qian Renxue had to admit that Qian Gu Huang Yu's considerations had some merit. But that didn't stop her from occasionally making things difficult for the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy.

Zang Xin said solemnly, "The Tang Clan and Shrek Academy will definitely supervise their subordinates well, so please rest assured."

Qian Gu Huang Yu said, "Although there are no forces on the surface that can stir up trouble now, we still cannot relax our supervision of society."

"Although communication is very advanced now, it still takes time to organize people to quell the rebellion after the news arrives. If the ones who take action are titled Douluo or even Super Douluo, it would be enough for them to kill tens of thousands of people."

Although the Ancient Phoenix Feather faction currently holds an absolute advantage in strength, most of their high-end combat power is concentrated in Mingdu.

If the opposing Super Douluo only thinks about taking revenge on society and carrying out indiscriminate massacres in remote areas, it will take time for them to react.

After discussing public security, Qian Gu Qingfeng began his report on judicial work: "After this period of strict crackdown and severe punishment, public security has improved significantly."

Qian Gu Huang Yu nodded slightly. "Having just experienced a major battle, it's better to be stricter with the law. We can't let criminals have any illusions."

Leng Yaozhu said, "After the reconstruction of schools in various places was completed, schools have gradually reopened. However, there is a disagreement within our Ministry of Education regarding one issue."

Education should never be neglected, no matter how poor we are. Among the many public resources available, schools were among the first projects to be rebuilt.

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Huang Yu perked up and said, "Yao Zhu, what's making you hesitant? Tell me."

. . . . .

After the discussion on education-related issues was completed, it was Yali's turn to give her report on medical matters:
"Now that the hospital has been basically rebuilt, along with the war zone hospitals built during the year-long war, it can basically guarantee the normal medical needs of residents."

"In addition, with the current government subsidies for medical care, it can be said that the situation of not being able to afford medical treatment has been basically eliminated."

Because the destruction of people's livelihoods during the One Year War was so great, many residents lost all the wealth they had accumulated in their lifetime. There were even cases where patients couldn't afford medical treatment and could only wait to die.

It was precisely to prevent this situation that Qian Gu Huang Yu ordered that all medical care, regardless of whether patients had money or not, be funded entirely by the government.

Anyway, she had just defeated a bunch of Soul Clans, and the confiscation of their property alone made her a fortune. The Soul Clans had exploited the people of the Federation for thousands of years, and it was time for them to make some contributions to the people of the Federation.

Yue Hongchen said, "Your Excellency, although we have made a lot of money by robbing many Soul Clans, this cannot continue indefinitely! If this continues, our finances will eventually run out of money."

As the saying goes, you don't know the cost of firewood and rice until you're in charge of the household. Ever since Yue Hongchen became the Minister of Finance in charge of federal finances, he has realized that there are expenses everywhere.

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue looked at Zang Xin and said, "The country is in trouble, why don't you Tang Clan donate some more?"

Zang Xin's expression froze on his face. The Tang Sect had just donated 100 billion Federal Credits, which was a huge blow. It was already difficult enough for them to maintain the normal operation of the sect, so naturally they didn't have the money to pay protection fees anymore.

Zang Xin gave an awkward laugh and said, "Just kidding, just kidding."

After pondering for a moment, Qian Gu Huang Yu said, "This really can't go on. Wasn't the plan to use work relief instead of traditional relief measures? How is that going?"

Yue Hongchen said, "At the current speed, it will probably only take two years to complete all the infrastructure construction, and about three years later, the entire Federation can be restored to the pre-war level."

Qian Gu Huang Yu said, "Then let's start converting industry into military industry in three years, so that we can prepare for the early annihilation of Xing Luo and Dou Ling."

Although provoking a war abroad could effectively divert attention from domestic conflicts, Qian Gu Huang Yu does not intend to start a war now.

Having just been through the baptism of war, the economy within the Sun and Moon Federation is actually very fragile and could collapse at the slightest mishap.

Qian Gu Huang Yu plans to wait until the domestic economic situation stabilizes before launching a war.

Otherwise, once the war begins, winning the war will become the top priority of the Sun and Moon Federation. Not only will a large number of soldiers need to go to the battlefield, but the entire country's industry will revolve around the war.

In that case, let alone rebuilding the infrastructure, it would be good enough if the military didn't directly requisition the infrastructure.

“But now there’s a problem: the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire already know we’re going to attack them. What if they launch a surprise attack?” Ya Li said with some worry.

As the strongest healing-type Soul Master in the world, Ya Li is also a very kind-hearted person, so naturally she doesn't want to see any more casualties.

Especially the civilian casualties; against a well-trained Soul Master army, civilians were utterly powerless. Faced with Ya Li's concerns, Leng Yu Lai simply smiled and said, "If they really dare to send troops, then I'll send the police to arrest them!"

Leng Yulai still remembered that Qian Gu Huang Yu had just planned to place Gu Yue Chun Qiu under her command. With such a quasi-god peak combat power, there was absolutely no need to panic!
"Is...is that so?" Yali said, somewhat surprised.

. . . . . .

After discussing for a while, Yue Hongchen gave a summary report. At the end of the report, she specifically mentioned that under the great leadership of Her Excellency Qian Gu Huang Yu, the happiness level of the entire nation had increased to forty percent.

...

After the cabinet meeting.

. . . . . .

Let's create something interesting before revising the text.
Before discussing why Lord Qian Gu Huang Yu is considered a god, I'd like to first explain where other Soul Masters fall short compared to him.

First, there was Gu Yuena, who committed the sin of arrogance. Initially, she relied on her superior cultivation to defeat Lord Qian Gu Huang Yu a few times at night, and then mocked him, believing that he could only be a beast.

Such an arrogant Soul Master was destined to go nowhere, and indeed it was. After winning against you by virtue of his superior cultivation, he went downhill all the way, and in the end, he suffered a crushing defeat at the bottom of the Lake of Life.

In comparison, you are quite humble, with fewer public duties at night and fewer headcounts (meaning zero) during the early, middle, and later stages of the One Year War.

It's all your mercy towards mortals. It's not that you can't do it, but you don't want to leave your opponents in despair through an overly perfect performance. So you deliberately don't use it.

It's laughable that some people don't understand your good intentions and even use these things to ridicule you. I advise you to think twice before acting.

...

Then there's Tang Hao, who committed the sin of anger. He fought with the Spirit Hall simply because Qian Xunji killed his wife, and even attacked you at the slightest disagreement.

This contradicts Your Excellency's statement in Parliament, "My favors are compounded."

So the lord descended and punished her. Tang Hao failed to win her over. His son's brothers, Da Ming and Er Ming, died one after another. In the end, even the golden ancient tree, the incarnation of his wife, was destroyed.

...

Next was the Abyss Saint King, who committed the sin of laziness, thinking himself great just because he was the ruler of a plane and possessed a super artifact.

Furthermore, what many people may not know is that when the fifth layer of the Abyss Plane collapsed and the Abyss Saint King awoke, what he saw in his mind was Your Excellency standing in the light.

At that time, you told him that he could only go this far and could not go any further (referring to continuing the attack on the Blood God Legion).
However, your persuasion not only failed to make the Abyss Saint King repent, but he also dared to confront your authority head-on after the defeat, together with Mortis, the number one evil soul master of the Holy Spirit Cult.

So the lord imposed her punishment: the Abyss Saint King disappeared after forming an alliance with Mortis, and had no role in any of the 100 chapters.

...

Then there's Yunming, who committed the sin of jealousy. He was repeatedly defeated by Your Excellency, but Yunming, though outwardly compliant, secretly harbored jealousy towards Your Excellency.

They even dared to declare to the heavens that you were the challenger. Thus, in the most prestigious three-way battle, the Shrek Campaign...

Yunming didn't even have the courage to attack you, but he considered that he hadn't focused on attacking you during the One Year War.

He merely uttered the perplexing statement, 'The power of the Golden Tree is not just about its appearance!' and in doing so, you granted him all his wishes in the forum debate.

...

Harosa, who committed the sin of greed, was just starting out, yet he became a quasi-god and possessed a divine artifact, which was naturally at Your Majesty's permission.

Your Excellency originally designated him as your spokesperson in the Holy Spirit Cult, to restore the glory of the Evil Soul Master in the future. For this purpose, you did not hesitate to pave the way for Harossa personally, assist Harossa, and give all the glory to him.

But in the end, Harosa was blinded by desire, no longer taking Your Majesty's ideals as his own, nor listening to Your Majesty's teachings.

He even thought his own glory had surpassed Your Majesty's, and actually followed the Ghost Emperor to invade the Federation during the One Year War.

So the Lord issued a punishment: Harosa would never again receive the Lord's favor, and he was easily defeated by Qian Renxue in the most prestigious war of the year, never again having the chance to stand at the debate table.

...

After the fall of Your Excellency's representative, Harosa, who committed the sin of gluttony, Your Excellency began searching for a new representative, and this time she chose Qian Renxue.

Compared to you, Qian Renxue is undoubtedly imperfect; she lacks your overwhelming laning pressure that can suffocate your opponents.

It also lacks your bottomless small toy pool, your indomitable courage, your sensitive acuity, and your impeccable breathing.

But Your Excellency has temporarily entrusted her with the most devout and powerful Isshin Society.

He also replicated the paving operation for Harosa, but because of Harosa's situation, you believe that perhaps you put too much pressure on him, which led to Harosa's downfall.

Therefore, this time you chose to leave after the Eternal Heaven exploded, to reduce Qian Renxue's mental burden.

In the end, Qian Renxue became the leader of the new Federation. However, after her reappearance, Qian Renxue not only defied convention by claiming to be Your Majesty's older sister, but also attempted to seize Your Majesty's divine power.

However, she mistakenly believed that Your Excellency's power stemmed from deep narcissism and self-worship, which ultimately led her to commit the sin of gluttony.

Despite wielding two angelic swords, he failed to fell the golden ancient tree and could only sit at the same table as Bald Qiang.

...

Finally, Tang Wulin, who committed the sin of wishful thinking, is already extremely weak after the Eternal Heaven Kingdom exploded.

Gu Yuena drained your life force with her relentless nightly battles, leaving you powerless to punish her any longer.

Only the believers continue to uphold Your Majesty's authority. Although Your Majesty has now decided to retire, you still care about Douluo Star until the very end.

Therefore, she chose the third prince, Tang Wulin. As the third prince, Tang Wulin upheld the prince's dignity very well.

However, after defeating one-ring Soul Masters in succession during the battle at the Junior Soul Master Academy, Tang Wulin met his senior, Ouyang Zixin.

He couldn't resist beautiful female classmates, and women slowed down his blacksmithing. As a result, he became increasingly deviant and eventually murdered his father and sister, completely ruining his reputation.
