"So, Dad, are you planning to continue your incognito investigation, or are you coming back to be the Emperor?" Jiang Qun asked.

Emperor Xia reflected on his experiences of the past few days, which included either being screamed at by Lu Yang demanding the extermination of his family, or being dragged into a rebellion. He felt that it was safer to remain the Emperor.

"Let's go back. These old bones of mine can't take much more of this," he said.

Jiang Qun, hearing this, was overjoyed. He quickly gave a symbolic wipe of the throne and invited his father to sit down.

After returning to his original appearance, Emperor Xia seemed to have his energy significantly drained, panting with each step he took.

Even when he sat on the chair, he couldn't sit up straight and had to lean against the back of the chair for support.
