"Father, what are you doing?"
However, Baili Chengfeng did not respond, but instead focused intently on checking Baili Dongjun's physical condition.
As he investigated further, he was shocked to discover that Baili Dongjun truly had no internal energy whatsoever.
He frowned, knowing full well that Wenhujiu would never deceive him on this matter.
Seeing this, Yu Tian stepped forward and said to Baili Chengfeng:
"Young Master, Young Master Baili possesses the internal strength of a first-rate master."
It can only be activated when Young Master Baili is drunk.
Upon hearing Yu Tian's words, Baili Chengfeng immediately understood that this matter must be inextricably linked to the Confucian Immortal of Western Chu.
But now is not the time to deal with this, so he turned to Yutian and said:
"Thank you for your help, Young Master Yu. Otherwise, with the elders of Wushuang City present, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to return to Qiandong City safely."
Waving goodbye on a rainy day, he answered easily:
"It was just a small favor, Your Highness need not take it to heart."
Although Yu Tian felt this was easy for him,
But Baili Chengfeng knew that this matter was of great significance to their Zhenxi Marquis's mansion and that they had to make a gesture, so he continued:
"This may not be a big deal for Young Master Yu, but the fact that my son has returned safely this time is truly remarkable."
We, the Marquis of Zhenxi, still need to express our gratitude.
"How about this, Uncle, you take Young Master Yu to rest first, and we will host a banquet for him tonight to express our gratitude."
Wenhujiu responded immediately after hearing this:
"Alright, then I'll take Young Master Yu to rest first."
Yu Tian knew that Baili Chengfeng had to deal with the matter of Baili Dongjun meeting Xi Chu Jian Ge.
He glanced at Baili Dongjun, then left without staying any longer, following Wenhujiu.

Chapter Twenty-Five: Emperor Tai'an's Worries
After Wen Hujiu and Yu Tian left, Baili Chengfeng looked Baili Dongjun up and down again, his eyes filled with doubt and curiosity.
He frowned slightly and asked softly:
"Xi Chu Jian Ge, what's going on here?!"
Upon hearing Baili Chengfeng's words and being stared at by Baili Chengfeng's probing gaze, Baili Dongjun inwardly groaned, while also worrying that his master would be exposed as a result.
He quickly avoided the other person's gaze, his eyes darting around as he said, "Uh... I don't know either! I was completely drunk at the time and had no idea what happened."
Seeing Baili Dongjun's nervous and evasive appearance, Baili Chengfeng understood a thing or two.
Knowing that Baili Dongjun wasn't telling the truth, she didn't intend to press him further.
Thinking of this, he went over and untied Baili Dongjun's ropes, then patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Alright, since you don't know, that's fine. Your mother misses you very much, you should go see her first."
Upon hearing this, Baili Dongjun felt as if he had been granted a pardon and immediately stretched his hands, which had become stiff from being bound for a long time.
Eager to leave this oppressive place, he said a few words and ran away.
Baili Chengfeng watched as Baili Dongjun ran off in such a hurry.
He shook his head helplessly, a doting smile appearing on his lips, and murmured softly, "This kid..."
However, when he remembered something, his eyes suddenly turned serious.
He quickly went outside the hall and shouted, "Someone come here!"
Soon, a guard clad in golden armor appeared before Baili Chengfeng, respectfully bowed to him, and asked:
"Your Highness, what can I do for you?"
Baili Chengfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, staring intently at the guard, and said in a low voice:
"The old man has returned from Tianqi City. Send someone to inform him immediately."
Tell him that a major event has occurred at home and he needs to return as soon as possible to make a decision.
Upon hearing this, the golden-armored guard was startled and realized the seriousness of the situation.
He immediately nodded and replied, "Yes, Your Highness! I will go and make the arrangements right away."
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden-armored guard quickly turned and left.
Baili Chengfeng stood still, gazing into the distance, thinking to himself:
"I guess the Northern Li royal family has received the news by now! Hmm! A storm is brewing!"
Beili.
Apocalypse City.
The Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Tai'an was sitting in his seat, carefully reading the memorials written to him by his officials.
Just then, soft footsteps came from outside the door.
Emperor Tai'an did not immediately look up, but continued to look down at the memorial in his hands.
He merely furrowed his brow slightly, as if deep in thought.
The footsteps grew closer and closer, finally reaching the doorway.
The door was gently pushed open, and a figure slowly walked in.
He was a man dressed in a white robe, with white hair reaching his waist. His face was handsome, like an immortal descending to earth.
And this was Zhu Qing, the eunuch who served Emperor Tai'an and was a half-step into the realm of spiritual travel.
Emperor Tai'an stopped upon hearing the footsteps, glanced up at Zhu Qing, and asked softly:
"what's up?"
Zhu Qing bowed his head respectfully and replied:
"Your Majesty, the Sword Song of Western Chu has been reborn."
Emperor Tai'an raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He pondered for a moment, then said slowly:
"The Sword Song of Western Chu... Isn't that the sword technique used by the two immortal swordsmen of Western Chu?"
And if I remember correctly, the two sword-wielding immortals of Western Chu died in that war!
Zhu Qing nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The Western Chu Sword Song is indeed the ultimate skill of the two immortal swordsmen of Western Chu, who were once famous throughout the world for their swordsmanship.
However, the Western Chu Sword Song was lost after the fall of Western Chu.
Furthermore, at that time, the Marquis of Zhenxi had a past relationship with the Twin Immortals of Sword and Confucianism from Western Chu. His Majesty, in order to test the Marquis of Zhenxi's loyalty to Northern Li,
He even specially arranged for a deputy general to accompany him, so that if the Marquis of Zhenxi harbored any disloyalty, that deputy general could immediately seize military power and take down the Marquis of Baili. However, in the end, the Marquis of Baili did not harbor any disloyalty.
Emperor Tai'an nodded in agreement, "The two immortal swordsmen of Western Chu died on the spot in that war."
After listening, Zhu Qing echoed:
"That's true, but the person who used the Western Chu Sword Song this time was a man named Baili Dongjun."
Emperor Tai'an was also very surprised to hear the name Baili Dongjun:
"Who did you say you were?"
“The only grandson of the Marquis of Zhenxi, Baili Dongjun,” Zhu Qing said calmly.
After receiving confirmation from Zhu Qing, Emperor Tai'an also asked with doubt:
"How could it be him?"
Zhu Qing remained silent for a moment, not directly answering Emperor Tai'an's question, but instead said:
"It was obvious to everyone that the body of the Western Chu Sword Immortal was hanging on the city wall, so there's only one possibility..."
The Confucian Immortal of Western Chu did not die back then, but was rescued by the Marquis of Zhenxi and taught Baili Dongjun the Western Chu Sword Song.
Upon hearing Zhu Qing's words, Emperor Tai'an also felt a great headache coming on, saying:
"Eh! What worries me most is this Confucian Immortal. You must know that this Confucian Immortal possesses a technique for making people into medicine."
The medicinal figures created by this Confucian immortal are capable of taking on a hundred enemies on the battlefield.
Otherwise, how do you think a small kingdom like Western Chu could have contended with our Northern Li for so many years?
Zhu Qing sensed the worry in Emperor Tai'an's words and replied:
"Should we send someone to Qiandong City to probe whether the Marquis of Zhenxi has any ulterior motives?"
