The girl watched Jun Lin's departing figure, her heart stirred slightly. Did he really want her to cultivate diligently? He even said that cultivating diligently was the greatest help he could give him.

Could it be that...

Yes, only if she cultivates diligently and doesn't fall behind in strength can she fight alongside her senior brother in the future.

The reason I said that to her was probably because I held a special place in my senior's heart.

So, it turns out, my senior brother has feelings for me!

The girl made up her mind to cultivate diligently and follow in her senior brother's footsteps!

now.

Junlin, who had already returned to his residence, had no idea that a casual remark he made had sparked endless daydreams in a young girl.

Lying on the bed, Junlin stared at the wooden ceiling, but felt as if he had forgotten something.

What else is there that he hasn't done...?

Junlin closed his eyes to think, and just as he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly remembered something.

The Emperor's Banner!

The white-robed youth had been refined inside the Emperor's Banner for five or six days.

I originally only intended to practice for three days and three nights, but I accidentally forgot about it.

However, there's no need to worry too much, since he controls his strength very well, and even if he trains for a year or two, it won't be a big problem.

So, let's talk about it tomorrow.

...

The next morning.

Jun Lin left the Wu Yang Sect and found a secluded place.

The Emperor's Banner was taken out.

As his consciousness sank into the Emperor's Banner, the tragic state of the white-robed youth came into view.

The white-clad youth, his hair disheveled, was howling in agony.

The refining power of the Human Emperor Banner continuously burned him, yet it maintained a good balance, causing only pain without damaging his mind.

Even so, the white-clad youth was tormented by intense pain to the point of being somewhat delirious.

"Oh ho, you're pretty tough." Jun Lin smiled amusedly. Now you should behave yourself, right?

The young man in white simply stared coldly at Jun Lin, without saying a word.

Junlin shrugged and said, "Don't look at me like that. You didn't have to suffer like this. It's all because you're so stubborn."

The young man in white remained silent, but Jun Lin was not annoyed.

Instead, he slowly said, "People always have to pay the price for their actions. For example, you stole my role as the hero who saved the damsel in distress, which led to your death."

"And then, because he refused to acknowledge the name of the Human Emperor's Banner, he suffered several days of torment for no reason. Was it really worth it?"

Jun Lin approached the white-robed youth and couldn't help but laugh at the resentful look in his eyes. What a spirited young man!

"Actually, you don't need to do this. Even if you suffer here for hundreds of years, I can still guarantee that your consciousness will remain intact."

"And in the future, new people will come to this banner. If you continue to be stubborn, then you will serve as a warning to the new people."

"But if you give me a satisfactory answer..."

Jun Lin's lips curled slightly, but he made no promises to the other party, simply saying, "Well? Make your choice."
