Chapter 1737 Fateful Reincarnation "Hm? Is that what I said?" Yuan casually shrugged it off and continued, "Anyway, I understand the situation, and I don't blame Miss Xu for her decision." "You can tell her that yourself when she arrives in a bit. Also, you have to tell her about your situation with the Celestial Emperor," said Kelan. Yuan nodded, "I will." Sometime later, a rift appeared in the world, and two individuals emerged from it. It was Senior Bai and Xu Jiaqi. "..." Senior Bai and Xu Jiaqi's eyebrows twitched when they sensed Yuan's powerful presence despite his efforts to suppress it. 'Just what did he experience in the Primal Expanse to grow so much in just three years?' Senior Bai swallowed nervously. Meanwhile, Xu Jiaqi was fixated on Yuan's face the moment she saw it. While she was surprised by his growth, she was even more shocked by something else. In the three years since Xu Jiaqi had last seen Yuan, he had grown noticeably more mature and handsome. Most striking, however, was that he now bore an uncanny resemblance to the founder of the Celestial Overlords, a similarity that was impossible to ignore. Although Xu Jiaqi had also noticed this before, she subconsciously ignored it—pretended like it was only her imagination. However, she could no longer ignore their resemblance. "Father…?" Xu Jiaqi muttered in a low voice, her eyes trembling with emotion. "What?" Senior Bai turned to look at her with raised eyebrows after hearing her mumbling. "Sorry for making you guys worry, but as you can see, I have returned," Yuan said to them. However, Xu Jiaqi acted like she didn't hear Yuan and approached him in a dazed manner. She placed a hand on his face and stared at it with intense concentration. "C-Celestial Overlord Xu…?" Kelan tried calling out to her, but she ignored him. 'Heaven Refining Physique… your uncanny resemblance to him…' Xu Jiaqi mumbled inwardly with a profound expression on her face, almost as if she'd realized something. Without looking away from Yuan, she suddenly said, "Leave us alone for a moment." "Yes." Noticing her serious tone, Senior Bai and Kelan didn't question her request and immediately left them alone. Even after they left, Xu Jiaqi proceeded to envelop Yuan and herself in a concealment formation and a sound-blocking formation. "What's the matter, Miss Xu?" Yuan asked her after seeing her actions. "Do you believe in reincarnation?" Xu Jiaqi suddenly asked with a solemn face. "Yes, I do." "What do you know about reincarnation?" she then asked. "As long as their soul is preserved, everyone who dies will eventually reincarnate, but they won't retain the memories of their past life." Yuan gave a brief explanation. "That is the basics of reincarnation, but did you know that those with a powerful fate could reincarnate into someone who closely resembles their previous life? Some even regain fragments of memories and talents from those lives." Xu Jiaqi revealed. "For example, once a Sword Immortal with a powerful fate for the sword perishes, there is a good chance their second life is also fated to walk the path of the sword, becoming a Sword Immortal again. We call this phenomenon Fateful Reincarnation, and the people who have experienced this Fateful Reincarnation are called True Reincarnators." "Fateful Reincarnation…" Yuan mumbled. "Don't be surprised to hear what I am about to say, but I believe you are a True Reincarnator who has experienced Fateful Reincarnation, and you were the founder of the Celestial Overlords in your previous life." Xu Jiaqi suddenly said, unaware that she'd perfectly struck the nail on its head. Before Yuan could even say anything, she continued, "The founder of the Celestial Overlords also had the Heaven Refining Physique, and your resemblance is uncanny. I'd be willing to wager my life that you're the founder's reincarnation." "..." Yuan couldn't say anything, as he was absolutely bewildered that someone had actually managed to come to this conclusion. After a moment of silence, Yuan spoke, "Even if what you say is true… What should I do?" Xu Jiaqi pondered for a moment before responding, "Just continue doing what you normally do. Since you are a True Reincarnator, your future has already been prophesied, and your path has already been determined. While there is a chance that your future might change, it can only be affected by those who are aware of your identity as a True Reincarnator, hence why you must not reveal this information to anyone—not even to Kelan or Overlord Bai. Do you understand me?" "I understand…" Yuan nodded in a dazed manner. True Reincarnators are an exceptionally rare existence, and they typically only appear in the Ninth Heaven, where some of the most powerful individuals with powerful fates exist, hence why almost nobody is aware of their existence in the lower heavens. "Thank the heavens you've returned to us in our time of need… I can finally breathe properly for once…" Xu Jiaqi released a deep and profound sigh. Nobody but Xu Jiaqi herself could understand the waves of emotions affecting her heart at this moment, but she'd managed to control herself and maintain her dignified demeanor. Yet, she was unable to prevent tears from forming in her eyes, causing her sight to become blurry. Yuan wondered if he should just tell Xu Jiaqi that he'd already begun recalling Tian Yingzhe's memories but decided to wait until he had enough memories before doing so. 'She's already convinced that I am Tian Yingzhe's reincarnation, so there's no point telling her. Once I regain enough of Tian Yingzhe's memories, I'll have a proper conversation with her.' Sometime later, once Xu Jiaqi had full control again, she spoke, "I assume Kelan had told you about our situation before we showed up." Yuan nodded, "Yes, he told me about the Celestial Overlords' internal strife and how the faction is essentially divided into four different factions." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖 "Indeed. Now that I've confirmed you to be our founder's reincarnation, we definitely cannot allow the others to realize your existence, or things will get messy really fast, and they will definitely hunt you down before you can regain your memories or affect the faction." Xu Jiaqi spoke in a solemn voice. "But worry not. I will protect you even at the cost of my life, just as you'd done for me in the past." A slight smile appeared on Xu Jiaqi's face.
