Apocalypse survivor Xu Jinhuan transmigrates into the body of an unloved true heiress. Expecting a satisfying revenge story against her family, she instead finds her adoptive father has backed the ...
Li Yichang, standing to the side, was utterly speechless. What was he? Was he some kind of despicable person? Did he deserve to be Xie Da Nao's punching bag?
Only a fool would agree to that!
"Ma Wencai, Li Yichang, you two should train with Xie Datou and see just how much his strength has increased," Xu Jinhuan suggested with a smile.
Previously, System Xiao Wang mentioned that the Loyalty Pill could enhance the potential of subordinates, but he hadn't mentioned that this potential could be continuously enhanced.
Could it be that there's something she missed?
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he fell into deep thought, and Li Xiaoxiao slowly walked to Xu Jinhuan's side and said.
"Sister, my eyesight has improved recently. Although it's still a little blurry, I can see things up close now."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinhuan wanted to pat her head with a smile, but Li Xiaoxiao dodged it and whispered, "Sister, I haven't washed my hair for several days. Can you wait until I wash it before you touch it?"
After saying that, she even blinked her big, obedient eyes.
Xu Jinhuan was charmed by her cuteness, and the corners of her mouth curved up a little. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll touch your hair after you've washed it."
After saying that, Xu Jinhuan looked up at the sky and said, "Before it's fully light, let's hurry back and tell everyone about the well."
Li Yichang nodded upon hearing this, "Okay, boss, this way we can all catch a wave of water before the sun fully rises."
After saying that, the group of people carried a bucket full of water back to their temporary accommodation.
"Jinhuan, where have you been? Breakfast is ready, you can eat now." As soon as the plump aunt saw Xu Jinhuan return, she immediately greeted him with a smile.
After she finished speaking, her eyes flickered and she saw the bucket of cool water.
"Oh my goodness, where did you get this water from?!"
The plump auntie's loud voice successfully drew everyone's attention to the bucket of water.
Is there a river nearby?
"No way, I walked around this area yesterday, the land is all cracked, where are we going to find a river?"
"Where did this water come from? It couldn't have fallen from the sky, could it?"
The crowd discussed the matter animatedly for a while, and finally the question was thrown back at Xu Jinhuan and his group.
"Boss Xu, where did you get this water from?"
"Brother Xie, where did you find the water?"
Given that everyone's questions were 99% similar, Xu Jinhuan smiled and handed over the responsibility of answering them to Ma Wencai and the others, while she herself took a break and went back to her room.
Meanwhile, Ma Wencai and the others, who were surrounded by people outside, could only watch their boss's dashing figure and sigh helplessly.
Sigh, I chose this boss myself, of course I have to spoil him.
"Ahem, everyone, don't rush, listen to me!" Ma Wencai cleared his throat and shouted loudly.
Because of Ma Wencai's carefree personality, everyone treated him very casually, and immediately urged him upon hearing this.
"Everyone, stop talking and listen to Ma Wencai."
"Wencai, hurry up and tell me, your aunt is getting impatient!"
Ma Wencai smiled and nodded, saying, "I'm sure everyone knows that our Boss Xu is the reincarnation of a deity, right?"
Everyone nodded, then looked puzzled. What did this have to do with the reincarnation of a deity? Could it be that Boss Xu found the water source?
Thinking about it that way, it's possible. After all, they arrived here yesterday and searched every nook and cranny but didn't find a single drop of water.
After whetting everyone's appetite, Ma Wencai explained with a smile.
“This well was dug by Boss Xu herself. She just waved her finger in front of us, and the well appeared in a flash. The water was also very cold, just right for use now.”
Everyone's mouths dropped open. Boss Xu could actually conjure a well out of thin air? Wasn't that a magic only gods could possess?
However, since Boss Xu is a reincarnation of a deity, perhaps she suddenly remembered her memories of being a deity, which is why she possesses such supernatural powers...
The crowd quickly came up with an excuse for Xu Jinhuan, and then excitedly said...
"Then what are we waiting for? Boss Xu specially dug a well for us, let's go and fetch water!"
"Yes, let's all go get water together. Everyone can drink as much water as they want today!"
And so, the exiled group, without even having breakfast, grabbed their pots and pans and headed toward the well.
After quietly finishing her breakfast alone, Xu Jinhuan glanced at the system notification about the high-temperature countdown. It showed that there were still two days left before the high-temperature crisis would be over.
What kind of disaster awaits her next?
Before Xu Jinhuan could fall into deep thought, she heard a scream.
Xu Jinhuan walked to the door, looked up and saw everyone suddenly screaming and running back.
"Oh my god, I'm finally saved! When the sun came out of the clouds just now, I felt like the hair on my head was about to catch fire."
"That's right, look at my face, it's all swollen after running all this way."
"Why is the temperature so much higher than yesterday? It was only this hot at noon yesterday."
The crowd rushed into the house and chattered amongst themselves in the shade.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinhuan looked outside, and the moment his finger extended, he felt the burning temperature.
It seems getting through these last two days won't be easy...
"How much water did you bring back?" Xu Jinhuan turned to ask the group.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately raised their heads proudly.
"Brother Xu, look! My bucket is full, and I didn't spill much when I ran back."
"Boss, look at me, my whole pot is still here!"
"The one in my ladle is there too!"
Xu Jinhuan smiled and said, "Everyone did a good job. This water, plus the water we stored before, is enough for us to get through these two days. As long as we get through these two days, we'll be fine for now."
Everyone had followed Xu Jinhuan all the way from the road of exile, so they knew that Xu Jinhuan would not make a conclusion easily. If she said it was two days, then it must be two days.
Hearing this, they were both surprised and delighted. Some of the sentimental women had already wiped away their tears. They were finally going to get through this.
They were rushing on their way while also trying to avoid the scorching heat. If it weren't for Boss Xu buying a carriage, they probably would have died on the road.
Xu Jinhuan reassured everyone and told them to go about their business as usual, while she sat in a chair, gazing at the blazing sunlight outside the window, lost in thought...
"Since this power of faith can do so many things, can it also transform nature?"
Thinking of this, Xu Jinhuan focused her attention on the several little figures that appeared in the Faith section of the system panel.
These are the fruits of her hard work in planting as she travels.
Now, with a single thought, she can go to the capital, to Jizhou, or to any place where her idol is located.
These powers of faith can only be used locally. Can she integrate them together?
