Chapter 1091: Restructure the Leadership of Ye Clan

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Everybody started to sit still after hearing what Ye Shuzhan said.

That was right. Those were precisely the words they wanted to say!

Ye Shuzhan had spoken out the words in everybody's heart.

It was so silent that even the sound of a needle hitting the floor could be heard. Ye Shuzhan's gasp was the only thing sounding in the room.

Ye Shuqing looked upset and guilty, murmuring, "So… I was wrong… I was wrong from the moment I decided to give in. I hurt you, also myself. I put you into suffering, as well as myself. I even caused the death of the three groups that we lost today!"

"But it is not too late to start over again!"

Ye Nantian decisively said, "Without destruction, there can be no construction. Xiao Xiao's massacre was ruthless, but it bonded us together again. Ye Clan is pure now!

"Everybody in Ye Clan is on our own side. There will be no evil minds among us!

"We should rebuild our clan when we are all of one mind. We should rise again! Although we are greatly weakened after the massacre, and it seemed to be more difficult to solve the problem about the other clans, as long as we stick together and work with one mind, we are still the Ye Clan we used to be! We will become much stronger in the future!

"Because nothing is stopping us inside the clan! This is the most important and precious thing we have earned today!"

"True!" The others all agreed in unison.

The old man, Ye Shuzhan, had finally vented it out. Now, however, he thought what he had said might have gone too far, so he lowered his head and said, "Brother, I have been suppressed too much these years. I may have said things exaggeratedly. It is not fair to keep mentioning what has passed in time… Don't keep those words in mind. I spoke it, and everyone heard it. That's the end."

Ye Shuqing's eyes were full of tears. He said in a trembling voice, "Things that have passed should not be chased, but how can I forget the sincere words of you…"

Ye Shuzhan's expression on his face changed. He suddenly kneeled down and kowtowed. "I was stupid to speak out those reckless words. I have rudely offended you, Brother! Please, I beg your punishment!"

No matter what wrong Ye Shuqing had done in the past, it didn't matter anymore, because he was the Chief of Ye Clan again. He even had strong support, Ye Xiao. In other words, if Ye Shuqing felt humiliated and make an accusation on Ye Shuzhan of disrespecting the chief, nobody had any reasons to disagree!

[I was wrong. So what? My grandson fought the clan back to our hands. Who is discontented? Step out and talk!]

In Qing-Yun Realm, power was the law!

Ye Shuzhan had vented it out freely but ignored the current situation.

The most horrible thing for the men who had just escaped death was to face death again!

Ye Shuqing made a long sigh and stood up. He held his brother up and said, "Brother, don't you forget what kind of person I am? I was simply being honest… Your words have enlightened me. What wrong is it? Come on, get up!"

Then he stood straight up, looked around, and talked to the people in a deep voice, "We should correct what is wrong and accept what is right. There is nothing you can't say.

"However, I can't take the responsibility as the Chief of Ye Clan again."

The others were shocked to hear it. "Chief, please, give it a second thought! You can't give up on us."

"The mistake in the past is the teacher in the future. It is the best thing to correct one's error. You are awake now! Why give up on it?"

Ye Shuqing smiled and answered, "I understand what you think. I am not doing this because of that. I am not resigning because of guilt. I just… want to hand over the power to someone more capable!

"Guys, please join me at the Ancestors' Hall in the afternoon. Let's report to the Prime Elder that I will take the chair as Chief of the clan. After that, I will hand it over to Nantian! Then I will serve in the Elders' Congress as an elder.

"It should be a result that everybody is happy to see."

Gramp Ye continued, "It is decided. Please don't try to change my mind… Haha…" He laughed and said, "We are family. I know that you are relieved. This is exactly the best you can have… Don't pretend. Don't comfort me. I am fine. I am at least able to be this broad-minded…"

The others were stunned and then burst into waves of laughter. The room was full of joy.

Ye Nantian hurriedly said, "Father, I am afraid this isn't the best decision. You are healthy and strong. It is too early to… Besides, I am still a susceptible member of the clan. Maybe Qiong-Hua Palace will do something again at any time… If they know I will become the Chief, they may come to make trouble on Ye Clan. Then…"

"We can't chase the past, but we can learn from it. We have submitted once, and it led us to a painful sacrifice. We will not submit again." Ye Shuqng blandly said, "I am afraid we may get used to surrendering if we step back again. If they come up again, we will just fight till the end. I would love to die fighting against them! What do you think?"

"Aye!"

The others all agreed.

The future of Ye Clan was eventually invulnerable!

…

When they were in the middle of the meeting, a voice casually sighed and said, "Do you really just make the decision now?"

The door of the room suddenly opened even though the wind didn't blow it.

A slim figure was standing at the door.

It was Ye Tianchen, the forefather of Ye Clan!

"Forefather!" The men all stood up and humbly saluted.

Ye Tianchen made a long sigh and walked into the room. He looked solemn and grieved.

Nobody dared to say anything. Even Ye Nantian, who had a strong and steady mindset, didn't dare to make a reckless sound.

Ye Tianchen stopped and stood for a while, then looked around while speaking, "I have seen the… bodies…"

He paused for a while and continued, "You have done… well!"

"Thank you, forefather!" the men answered together.

They knew the truth. They knew it wasn't sincere praise. However, as things had come so far, even the forefather had to admit it.

It was the only way the clan could choose.

Ye Clan only had three groups that were led by Ye Shuqing and Ye Nantian. Ye Tianchen couldn't give a death penalty to them, could he?

To kill more?

There were not many left to be killed anymore!

In fact, Ye Shuxin dared to kill the other three groups at the beginning because he knew Ye Tianchen couldn't punish him after he did it!

But even though things went against his plan, Ye Tianchen was still in the same trouble. The only difference was that the other three groups died instead!
