Upon hearing Taihua Immortal Venerable's voice transmission, Lu Chen was somewhat curious about what Taihua Immortal Venerable wanted to say.

Immediately, Lu Chen left Yun Yudie's side and headed to the principal's office of the First Cultivation University.

Taihua Immortal Venerable also promptly followed Lu Chen to the principal's office.

Once Taihua Immortal Venerable entered, Lu Chen directly said, "Speak, what is the matter?"

Taihua Immortal Venerable did not answer directly; instead, he took out the jade scroll containing Li Xinghe's personal information and handed it to Lu Chen.

"Please take a look at this student's information, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen immediately used his immortal power to grasp the jade scroll. When he opened it, the information recorded about Li Xinghe within the jade scroll was projected into the air.

After glancing at Li Xinghe's information, Lu Chen instantly realized.

He wondered why he hadn't been able to find Star River Immortal Venerate. After becoming an Immortal Emperor, he actually used his divine thought to probe the entire Tianyan Immortal Domain. He knew how many Immortal Venerates were in the Tianyan Immortal Domain, even those Immortal Venerates hidden within Small Worlds. However, he had never been able to locate Star River Immortal Venerate. He thought Star River Immortal Venerate's time had come and had already fallen.

Unexpectedly, Star River Immortal Venerate had not fallen but had reincarnated, and now even took the initiative to appear.

However, that being said, although the name carries "Xinghe" and he possesses the Star Immortal Body, without probing his Divine Soul, it's not entirely certain that he is the reincarnated Star River Immortal Venerate. In a world this vast with so many people, coincidences are not impossible.

Lu Chen then said to Taihua Immortal Venerable, "After the opening ceremony is over, bring this Li Xinghe to the principal's office, I shall personally confirm his identity."

Taihua Immortal Venerable immediately said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

...

Yun Yudie did not speak many words. After she finished speaking, the deans made some additional remarks, and the opening ceremony ended in less than two hours.

After the opening ceremony, Li Xinghe was about to return to his residence in the school. However, at that moment, Taihua Immortal Venerable's figure appeared before him.

Li Xinghe immediately said, "Greetings, Dean."

Taihua Immortal Venerable responded with a faint "Hmm" and then said, "A distinguished figure wishes to see you, come with me."

Upon hearing this, Li Xinghe immediately felt a twinge of unease.

A distinguished figure?

Could it be Yun Yudie?

Could it be that Yun Yudie has noticed the mysterious power within his body?

If that's the case, it's troublesome. Yun Yudie's memories might have been erased by Chaos Qi, but the memories of other Ancestors of the Strange might not have been erased. If Yun Yudie learned about his existence, other Ancestors of the Strange might discover him through Yun Yudie.

However, thinking about it, even if Yun Yudie saw through him as a Mysterious Life, she might not care. Yun Yudie should believe the power within her comes from her special physique. Perhaps in Yun Yudie's view, he is just someone who possesses a special physique.

With this thought, Li Xinghe followed Taihua Immortal Venerable to the principal's office with assurance.

However, when Li Xinghe reached the principal's office, he found that it was not Yun Yudie inside, but Lu Chen.

The Netherworld Evil Emperor was taken aback; he thought it was Yun Yudie who sought him, but it turned out to be Lu Chen.

Why is Lu Chen looking for him?

Li Xinghe immediately said to Lu Chen, "Student Li Xinghe greets Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen glanced at Li Xinghe, wondering why Li Xinghe always gave him a peculiar feeling.

Now that Lu Chen has become the master of the Tianyan Immortal Domain, controlling all of its Qi Fortune, he can clearly sense the flow of Qi Fortune in the Tianyan Immortal Domain and can clearly feel the Qi Fortune on each person.

Li Xinghe's Qi Fortune is not dense; however, according to the data, his cultivation state progresses rapidly, and his Qi Fortune always seems elusive, as if it's ready to dissipate at any moment.

If Li Xinghe is the reincarnated Star River Immortal Venerate, his rapid cultivation state progress could be explained. This suggests he made some preparations before reincarnating to help him grow quickly in this life, or perhaps he has already regained some of his previous life's memories and possesses some immortal law from his past life, leading to quick cultivation state advancements.

At this moment, Lu Chen asked coldly, "Do you know why I am looking for you?"

Upon hearing this question, the Netherworld Evil Emperor felt a jolt inside, could it be that Lu Chen has discovered his true identity?

Lu Chen, being the foremost in the Spirit Realm and able to withstand the erosion of Chaos Qi till today, undoubtedly possesses great strength. If it's him, he indeed might discover his identity.

Yet, even if Lu Chen has figured out his identity, it won't affect his plan. His focus is solely on those Ancestors of the Strange, and even if Lu Chen discovers his divine thought has descended into this world, he can't do anything to him.

Li Xinghe said, "Student does not know."

Lu Chen snorted coldly and said, "Star River Immortal Venerate, even at the Emperor's presence, are you still planning to keep pretending?"

Upon hearing this, the Netherworld Evil Emperor was again surprised.

Star River Immortal Venerate?

It seems the person he reincarnated into indeed is Star River Immortal Venerate.

The Netherworld Evil Emperor then recollected Star River Immortal Venerate's memories; he then realized why Lu Chen sought him.

Back when Lu Chen reincarnated, Star River Immortal Venerate oppressed him, casting him into the Chaotic Sea. Now that Lu Chen has grown and become the lord of this world, it's only natural to settle accounts with Star River Immortal Venerate.

Coincidence, pure coincidence, he thought Lu Chen discovered him as an Ancestor of the Strange.

Returning to his senses, the Netherworld Evil Emperor feigned a bewildered look and said, "Your Majesty, what are you saying? Student doesn't understand."

Lu Chen chuckled lightly and said, "It seems you haven't recovered your memories yet. If so, let me help you restore your previous life's memories in advance."

Saying this, Lu Chen's divine thought directly invaded Li Xinghe's divine soul, wanting to see if the depths of his divine soul held any sealed memories and then prematurely unseal them.

Typically, a reincarnated individual's previous life memories remain sealed within the divine soul, only gradually unsealing when their power suffices.

However, when Lu Chen's divine thought entered the depths of Li Xinghe's divine soul, he didn't find any sealed memories. Although Li Xinghe's divine soul was strong, there were no memories within.

And as soon as Lu Chen's divine thought invaded Li Xinghe's divine soul, he had a sickening sensation.

Lu Chen immediately withdrew from Li Xinghe's divine soul, his gaze fixed on Li Xinghe, seemingly trying to see through him entirely.

On the side, Taihua Immortal Venerable noticed Lu Chen remained silent, just staring at Li Xinghe, feeling puzzled. He had sensed Lu Chen's divine thought invaded Li Xinghe's divine soul, logically, Lu Chen should have read all of Li Xinghe's divine soul memories, confirmed Li Xinghe as Star River Immortal Venerate, and then proceeded to settle scores.

But now, instead, Lu Chen stared motionlessly at Li Xinghe, with a hint of perplexity in his eyes.
