Villain: Starting with a Flawless Body, Born Invincible

151: You are doing this for your family, so I will do this for your own good!“For survival?”

“Even a Divine Authority would worry about survival?”

Jun Siyu thought this to herself but didn’t ask, instead shrinking her head and beginning to ponder.

Through constant exposure, she had come to understand that a Divine Authority was different, special, a symbol of the Jun Family. Everyone in the Jun Family operated for him, and he lived for the Jun Family.

The initial reason such a person began to Cultivate was not some grand, superficial excuse, but genuinely for survival.

She had also asked Jun Zizhuo his reason for Cultivating. He said, “Why would Cultivating need a reason? Everyone Cultivates, so naturally, I Cultivate too. Otherwise, when others become strong, only I will be bullied.”

Jun Zizhuo said that he was bullied a lot when he was young, and even lost a brother. After that, he suddenly woke up and began to Cultivate desperately, so as not to lose any more loved ones.

“Everyone has a reason why they must Cultivate, only I don’t…”

Jun Siyu, with her head tucked in, began to ponder why this was the case.

The answer, in fact, was obvious: she had parents who protected her very well. There was no threat in her daily life; she only needed to think about what to eat and what to play each day, without any anxiety.

But this wouldn’t do; not Cultivating would only leave her behind. Yet, if she wanted to Cultivate, she couldn’t approach it with a playful attitude, but with the determination to surpass everyone!

“Brother… I will start Cultivating.”

Jun Siyu’s voice was soft and sweet, but when she said this from under the covers, it was exceptionally firm.

Then she poked her head out and kept looking at Jun Lingxiao’s back. He didn’t move for a long time. Just as she was wondering if her brother was engrossed in his book, Jun Lingxiao sighed softly and spoke:

“Jun Siyu.”

He called out her name very seriously.

“Your birth is not your fault, and you don’t need to be like this. I know you want to fit in here, and you want people to stop mocking you, but you don’t have to do things you don’t like.”

“You don’t have to cater to anyone, and you don’t have to force yourself to do anything. I am here; those rumors will quickly dissipate. Trust me, it will be very soon.”

“I’m not saying this to make you stop Cultivating, or because I’m afraid you’ll become strong and compete with me for something. On the contrary, whether you travel or work hard to Cultivate, I support you. I just hope you…”

“Can do what you like.”

“This is what I have been striving for. I am for everyone in the Jun Family. This has nothing to do with kinship. You, now, are also among these people.”

From the bestowal of Divine Authority… no, before that, when he saw his father’s message? Or when he saw her? That’s when he suddenly realized.

Ah, it turns out I don’t feel too much.

Having an additional sister and having an additional Jun Family member were, in Jun Lingxiao’s eyes, essentially the same. He had, at some unknown point, sacrificed the individual and gradually ascended to the collective will.

Of course, he had not abandoned himself for this.

He still remembered that when he first arrived in this world, Jun Lingxiao had a dream.

It wasn’t a particularly grand dream. At that time, he just thought that since he had finally arrived, he definitely had to make the trip worthwhile and live a life without regrets. So, he thought then:

“I want to traverse the Three Thousand Provinces!”

Such a small wish, when Jun Lingxiao recalled it now, he still remembered it very clearly.

But unfortunately, what he received was not merely the position of Divine Authority; along with it came such a large Family.

Jun Chengtian, who had been entrusted with great hopes, left, and everyone in the world questioned what kind of Family could force such a Prodigy away. Various conflicts erupted all at once at that moment. For a time, endless doubts filled the shadows, and even within the clan, it was no exception. The Old Ancestor, the pillar of the Family, traveled the world and was nowhere to be seen. It could be said that the Jun Family at that time was truly on the verge of collapse.

He saved such a Jun Family right after he was born.

In comparison, his own small wish seemed somewhat insignificant.

It perfectly echoed the Old Ancestor’s words:

“He who wishes to wear the crown must bear its weight.”

Looking back now, seeing her, Jun Lingxiao hoped she could do what she liked. This was not disingenuous, after all, he was striving for this very thing.

“It’s okay if you don’t have anything you want to do or like right now; you can take your time. No one will force you. You can think slowly; you’re still young, and you have a lot of time.”

Jun Lingxiao momentarily lost himself in thought, recalling his past self, but then instantly snapped back and continued.

“Could Big Brother do that when he was little?” Jun Siyu blinked her big eyes and continued to ask.

“Could he choose what he liked to do?”

Hearing this, Jun Lingxiao smiled, a soundless, relieved smile.

He pursed his lips and softly said, “No.”

“I couldn’t choose.”

“But you can.”

Jun Siyu listened and said “Oh,” her heart churning with emotions. This surge of emotion came suddenly, catching her off guard.

Looking at Jun Lingxiao’s somewhat lonely back, she really wanted to say something, truly, very much, but she didn’t know where to start, and she didn’t dare to speak.

Say words of comfort? But those would be useless. Say words of encouragement? Or go up and pat his shoulder and say, “You’ve worked hard”?

Jun Lingxiao didn’t need any of that; otherwise, he wouldn’t have made it to where he was today.

He was who he was, seemingly unassailable.

At this moment, Jun Siyu seemed to vaguely understand why those women looked at her with such eyes.

It was… an expression of envy, jealousy, and helplessness.

As she was thinking, suddenly! A flash of inspiration struck Jun Siyu, and she eagerly spoke: “Brother, you are for everyone in the Jun Family, so I will be for you!”

After speaking, Jun Siyu seemed very happy, instantly jumping up, becoming even prouder of her idea.

“I won’t Cultivate for anyone else, just for you, Brother!”

“I want to become strong! Strong enough to let Brother choose what he wants to do!”

A child’s vows come so easily, and they can just as easily strike the softest part of one’s heart.

Jun Lingxiao turned his head and looked at her, at the small figure with white hair standing on the bed, her eyes full of seriousness and excitement, as if she was happy about her idea.

He had heard countless words of flattery, but truthfully, he had never heard anyone say such a thing to him.

It was very novel.

After all, no one was so arrogant as to dare to openly say they would surpass him, protect him—it was incredibly arrogant and presumptuous. But… it also really sounded like something a child would say.

Jun Lingxiao merely chuckled noncommittally at this: “I’ve received your sentiment, but you should take care of yourself first.”

“Also, it’s time for you to sleep.”

Jun Siyu thought Jun Lingxiao didn’t believe her, and even in the last second before being made to sleep, she still tried to persuade Jun Lingxiao, attempting to make him believe her.

But what was the point of believing or not believing? A few words wouldn’t move him at all. However, to make her stop, Jun Lingxiao still offered a hint.

“Let your actions speak.”

With these words, Jun Siyu finally had nothing more to say.

She tucked her head under the covers, only her small eyes peeking out, fixed on Jun Lingxiao. The emotion in her heart not only didn’t dissipate but surged even more strongly.

“Though I really liked my time in the small Family, this is also good now…”

Jun Siyu thought this, then gradually fell into a dream.

That night, she had a dream. In her dream, she was finally accepted by the Jun Family and made many friends. Her father also brought her mother back here. Although her brother wasn’t very happy, with her persistent efforts, they finally reconciled, and the Family lived out the rest of their lives peacefully and safely.
