As soon as Ji Mingyu returned to the Underworld Temple, Jun Mulan ran over excitedly.
Although she knew that her senior brother didn't like others getting close to him, Jun Mulan couldn't help but want to move over and hold his hand affectionately.
But at this time, Ji Mingyu remembered Xi Yue's words.
Although he had no romantic feelings for Jun Mulan, since Xi'er was unhappy, he had better stay away from her.
So this time, Jun Mulan not only came up empty-handed as usual, but found that Ji Mingyu was standing even further away from her.
Jun Mulan looked at the man's handsome face and his cold and distant expression, and for the first time, her always optimistic and cheerful heart felt a little sad and painful.
"Brother, I came to tell you that I participated in the selection of the Saint." Jun Mulan looked deeply at Ji Mingyu with her beautiful eyes and said slowly, "I also want to tell you that even for you, I will definitely become the next Saint and will not let you down."
Ji Mingyu frowned, "Have you forgotten the oracle of heaven from the divination? The chances of you being a saint are slim, why bother getting involved in this mess?"
Although he had no personal feelings for Jun Mulan, she was the one Jun Linxi entrusted to him after all. He couldn't just ignore her.
Becoming a saint, no matter what the process is, is bound to be extremely dangerous.
Not to mention, the only saint could be Xi Yue, and Jun Mulan’s desire to become a saint was just a dream.
Jun Mulan bit her lower lip and said stubbornly, "Brother also said that the chances are slim, but not impossible. If I am not a saint, why did I just break through to the Divine Lord level when the Yuan Ling returned? So many positive signs indicate that I might be a saint, and other people in the Divine Realm believe it. Don't you think so, brother?"
Since she said so, Ji Mingyu said no more, "In that case, you can do whatever you want."
Having said that, he was about to leave.
Jun Mulan hurriedly called him, "Wait! Senior Brother!"
"Anything else?"
Jun Mulan was silent for a moment before saying, "Brother, I heard that the process of selecting a saint is very dangerous. I would like to borrow the Heaven-Slaying Silk and the Earth-Melting Bracelet from you. Is that possible?"
In fact, Jun Mulan did not need the Zhutian Ling and Hundi Bracelet, and she was confident that she could pass the previous selection.
But for some reason, these few days she kept thinking about the magic weapon that she couldn't take away. She kept thinking about it, and always felt that if she got it, she would have a better connection with her senior brother.
She originally thought that her senior brother would definitely lend it to her, because he loved her the most and cared the least about these material possessions.
However, Ji Mingyu said calmly: "I have given away the Zhutian Ling and Hundi Bracelet. If you need treasures, why don't you pick some other ones?"
"What?! You gave it to someone?! Who did you give it to?!" Jun Mulan's expression changed drastically, which was rare.
Ji Mingyu said impatiently: "I can give my things to whoever I want to give them to."
After saying that, he turned and left without waiting for Jun Mulan's reaction.
Jun Mulan was left standing there, biting her lower lip tightly, with an indescribable look of resentment on her face.
"It's okay, it's okay. Senior brother must have given it away as a favor. Senior brother still loves me the most. As long as I become a saint, senior brother will definitely marry me."
Jun Mulan comforted herself for a while before turning around and leaving.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the Saint Selection Conference to begin.
The return of the Saint is obviously the greatest event in the Divine Realm.
So early in the morning, countless people gathered outside the Holy Maiden Temple.
The process of the grand ceremony is actually divided into two parts: selection and heaven's choice. (To be continued)
