The woman was dressing up the man, quickly transforming him into the likeness of Li Changsheng. Meanwhile, Baili Dongjun was chatting with his grandfather when the Grand Eunuch arrived, with Li Changsheng walking behind him. The Grand Eunuch mentioned that he had accompanied the Emperor this time. The Marquis of Zhenxi was surprised that the Emperor had come personally to see him, and he hurriedly told his grandson to kneel.

The Emperor finally saw the face of the Marquis of Zhenxi and reassured him that he had always believed in him. He also emphasized how severely those responsible would be punished. Afterward, the Emperor invited the Marquis of Zhenxi into a room, and at the door, the Emperor greeted Li Changsheng. Inside, the Marquis of Zhenxi and the Emperor had a private conversation.

In the past, the Marquis of Zhenxi had only enjoyed drinking wine, but now he preferred tea—both men were growing old. They reminisced about when Ye Yu personally led an army into battle, only to be accused of treason. The Marquis asked whether all brothers would eventually meet such a fate. Without waiting for the Emperor's response, the Marquis expressed his admiration for Xiao Ruofeng, noting that Li Changsheng also held him in high regard.

However, the Emperor pointed out that Xiao Ruofeng's greatest weakness was his excessive kindness. If Xiao Ruofeng suspected the Marquis of rebellion, he would protect him regardless. The Marquis remarked that many matters in the household were now handled by his grandson, as he had grown old. The Emperor reassured him that as long as he returned to the Marquis of Zhenxi’s residence, his title would remain secure. The Grand Eunuch then engaged Li Changsheng in conversation.

The imposter Grand Eunuch tried to test Li Changsheng, but Baili Dongjun quickly intervened, saying that it wasn't time for his master to take action yet. Just as a fight was about to break out between them, the Marquis of Zhenxi and the Emperor emerged from the room, halting the conflict. The Grand Eunuch remarked that while the person before them closely resembled Li Changsheng, it was this very similarity that gave away their deception.

The Emperor privately admitted his concern that the power and prosperity of families spanning three generations might eventually pose a threat to him. Xiao Xie was now terrified. If the Marquis of Zhenxi wasn’t killed, his false accusations would be exposed, and he collapsed to the ground in fear. Just then, a subordinate of the Grand Eunuch arrived, saying that the Grand Eunuch believed the timing was right, so they had come.

Baili Dongjun met with his senior brother again, and they all knew Baili Dongjun had returned for the Marquis of Zhenxi’s sake. The Emperor had not punished anyone yet, but it was clear Xiao Ruofeng would soon be in the Emperor's favor. Everything the Emperor had done was paving the way for Xiao Ruofeng.

However, once someone reached the highest position, they would lose their freedom, and Baili Dongjun reflected that living freely as he did now was actually quite enjoyable. It was a shame that his fellow brothers were no longer around, and Lei Mengsha had even been sent to find the whereabouts of Yi Wenjun. Baili Dongjun’s first thought was of Ye Dingzhi, whom he hadn’t seen in over a year, and he remained deeply worried.

Ye Dingzhi discovered that the Grand Eunuch had summoned all his disciples back, realizing something suspicious was afoot. The Grand Eunuch’s disciple, Jin Xian, had also returned. In fact, Jin Xian and Ye Dingzhi had crossed paths before, though Ye Dingzhi hadn’t informed the Grand Eunuch. At that moment, the Grand Eunuch sought out Li Changsheng’s disciple, Chen Ru.

The Grand Eunuch had already sent people to kill Baili Dongjun and had come to watch over Chen Ru to prevent him from offering any assistance. Baili Dongjun was aware that someone was plotting to ambush him, but with just a few moves, he managed to subdue three attackers. Although they were nearly killed, Baili Dongjun let them go, understanding that they had no choice in the matter.

However, the assassins sent by Xiao Xie were unexpectedly killed by the Grand Eunuch’s subordinates. The Grand Eunuch was shocked when Li Changsheng removed his mask, revealing himself to be Nangong Chunshui. But the Grand Eunuch didn’t realize that Nangong Chunshui was actually a younger version of Li Changsheng and had initially dismissed him. It wasn’t until he saw Nangong Chunshui use one of Li Changsheng’s techniques that he was stunned.

The fight between Baili Dongjun and the Grand Eunuch’s men moved from inside the city to outside its walls. The Grand Eunuch hadn’t expected Baili Dongjun’s skills to be so impressive. Baili Dongjun used techniques that had never been seen before, and although the enemy initially believed their Thunderbolt Technique was unbeatable, Baili Dongjun ultimately seized their sword. With two swords in hand, Baili Dongjun overpowered his opponent, forcing them to admit defeat. Taking a sip of wine, Baili Dongjun proudly declared, “I am the Wine Immortal, Baili Dongjun.
