Emperor Xia pondered over what was asked of him, turned to look at Ye Futian, and said, "Ye Futian, this is an internal affair of the Dali Dynasty. If a war between realms were to break out, if I were to simply interfere and take the imperial advisor away, Emperor Li can just show up at Emperor Xia's Realm and take him back, no?"
Even if a war were to break out, there still needed to be a balance. Renhuangs would have attacked easily. If they were to kill people below the Renhuang plane, it would be tantamount to genocide. No one else would be able to fight the Renhuangs.
Emperor Xia claimed that even if a war were to break out, the imperial advisor was still a representative of the Dali Dynasty. If he were to interfere in the imperial advisor's execution through the use of force, it would anger Emperor Li.
Ye Futian knew that, which was why he advised the imperial advisor to consider settling in the Crimson Dragon Realm.
