I hope the father ends up dying anyway. He's shown to be a ridiculously awful person and is probably a large part of why the clan is falling into ruin.
Hopefully he dies and we get water lady, or even the little sister as the next clan head (or burned guy. But he's sooooooo sus lmao.) Maybe burn guy takes over and seems nice but there's a hint of trouble in the future.
Considering she was meant to duel Haibu but her mother(?) killed him, maybe she duels the clan head to protect her mother(?).
