"If you want to express your opinion, then clarify the matter before speaking!" Long Liu was too lazy to explain to him.

"You…" Yan Donghou was choked.

He really didn't understand the situation.

He didn't know what was going on with Yao Tao, nor did he know why Flame Marquis was unsuitable to be the leader.

Moreover, he didn't even know if there were any other entanglements between Yan Territory and Dragon Territory.

Under such circumstances, rashly speaking would indeed make him seem ignorant.

"Alright, Yan Donghou, don't get excited. This matter does involve a lot and cannot be explained in a few words," Flame Marquis soothed.

"Flame Marquis, you must think twice!" Yan Donghou said.

"Don't worry, I will handle this matter carefully and give everyone a satisfactory answer," Flame Marquis promised.

"Alright then!" Yan Donghou said no more.

"Young Master Long Liu, your suggestion is not impossible to consider. It's just that you can see that this leader position is not something I can give to whomever I want. If the leaders of other tribes don't approve, even if I promise you, it's useless," Flame Marquis said.

"I naturally know. As long as Flame Marquis is willing to yield, my Dragon Clan will do its best to resolve the other matters," Long Liu said.

"Alright, let's discuss this matter later."

Although Flame Marquis didn't give a clear attitude, in Long Liu's view, the matter was basically settled.

So, he didn't say anything more at the moment and took his leave.

Subsequently, Flame Marquis also took his leave.

"Yao Tao, come, let's have a good chat." Flame Marquis pulled Yao Tao to the table and sat down, beginning to recount the events of the past years.

At the same time, Cheng Bang had already sensed that Yao Tao had lost control.

So, he quietly escaped at night.

Flame Marquis didn't send anyone to control him, so he didn't receive the news until the next day.

However, he wasn't surprised, nor did he send anyone to chase after him. He knew his limitations and knew that he couldn't control someone like an immortal master.

In his opinion, it was good that he left.

With him gone, the tribe would surely be much more peaceful.

Yao Tao sat beside Flame Marquis, listening to him recount everything that had happened between them over the years, and was moved to tears.

"Young Master, that Grand Duke is really too bad! Please give the order to arrest him!" Yao Tao said, pouting in anger.

"Forget it! We are no match for him, it's better to stay away from him," Flame Marquis shook his head.

"Young Master, what should we do now? If you want to be with me, I'm afraid everyone in the world will think you've lost your virtue. Why don't you let me stay by your side and be a servant? That way, we can be together, and no one will curse you behind your back," Yao Tao said.

"Haha, you're thinking too simply. My not becoming this leader is not entirely related to you," Flame Marquis laughed.

"Then what other reasons are there?" Yao Tao asked.

"My campaign against Gold Territory set a bad example for the world. If I become the leader, then the Nata Clan will be plunged into endless war in the future. In that case, I would become a sinner of the Nata Clan. Therefore, from the moment I decided to campaign against Gold Territory, I was destined not to be this leader!" Flame Marquis replied.

"So that's how it is! Then Flame Marquis, shall we return to Yan Territory? I am willing to follow you for the rest of my life, inseparable for all eternity," Yao Tao said.

"Okay!" Flame Marquis was very touched to hear her say that.

Three days later, Flame Marquis handed over Gold Territory to Marquis Longli to manage, while he led his own clan's warriors back to Yan Territory.

Whether to inherit the position of leader was not his decision alone, but needed to be discussed with the elders before a decision could be made.

Four months later, Flame Marquis returned to Yan Territory.

After repeated consultations with the elders, a consensus was finally reached:

Give up the position of leader and send a 'Letter of Self-Accusation' to the various tribes.

In the 'Letter of Self-Accusation,' Flame Marquis elaborated on his mistake of campaigning against Gold Territory, and the harm that this mistake might bring to the Nata Clan. He also advocated that everyone continue to follow the Righteous Path Sutra and jointly maintain the peace and stability of the Nata Clan.

The various tribes had actually already made judgments on this matter, and many people believed that there were many risks in Flame Marquis serving as the new leader of the Nata Clan.

It was just that Flame Marquis had overthrown King Jin Ji's violent rule and made great contributions. Moreover, the Nata Clan was now a disorganized mess and urgently needed a leader to come out and preside over the overall situation.

And such a candidate was none other than Flame Marquis.

Therefore, although everyone realized the risks, no one spoke out to stop him.

Now that Flame Marquis had sent the 'Letter of Self-Accusation,' everyone naturally expressed their understanding.

In the following six months, Marquis Longli spent a lot of resources and made great contributions to the post-war restoration work.

This also paved the way for him to take over the position of leader of the Nata Clan.
