“She can’t see you.” Xiao Mei reached out and grabbed Li’er. Her gaze toward the woman also contained a hint of heartache, but it was less intense than Li’er’s.
"I know." Li'er nodded, sniffed, and tears welled up in her eyes. "After all, we've lived under the same roof for so many years."
“Yes, after all, we used to be family. On the surface, she treated me better than you.” Xiaomei sighed as she said this, her previously cold expression softening. “She probably believed that I was her biological son.”
“You’re wrong. She knows you’re not her biological child. It’s just that you’re better at talking than I am,” Li’er turned around and sighed. “She’s always liked you. People who are good at talking are always popular.”
"Alright, stop being so sour. What's past is past, let's talk about the future later. Some things are beyond our control." Xiaomei reached out and punched Li'er on the shoulder, then turned around. "Look, your sister has already started..."
Wan'er stood in the middle, with Mo Tian and Shui Xing on her left and right sides, and four beautiful women standing behind them.
Wan'er concentrated and held her breath, slowly raising her arms, palms down and outstretched forward. Between her hands, a bead, resembling a dragon's eye, blinked with an eerie light, tracing a beautiful upward arc towards the center of the lake, slowly extending...
The Dragon Ball shifted its light, finally coming to rest about five meters above the center of the lake, making the lake appear even brighter and more radiant...
The surface of Silver Mirror Lake appears calm, but there seems to be something beneath the water.
Sure enough, "woo woo..." If you listen carefully, you can faintly hear a sobbing sound coming from underwater.
"Waaah!" As the sobbing intensified,
"Splash..." A small stream appeared in the center of the lake. Slowly, the stream expanded, and ripples spread from shallow to deep, creating waves that opened like flower petals. Gradually, the waves took shape, and everyone held their breath, afraid to make a sound, watching the surface of the water intently.
The water surged and crashed, creating a huge wave that resembled a pure white snow lotus blooming on the surface.
Immediately afterwards, a water droplet in the center of the snow lotus rapidly expanded, lengthened and rose, and a white figure rose from the water's surface. The figure twisted and turned, much like a girl dancing with flowing sleeves, gracefully twirling on the water's surface, except that her figure seemed somewhat short and plump, and her dance moves were somewhat clumsy.
From any angle, the girl's entire body was nothing but clear water.
“It’s Shui Ling!” Li’er had seen Shui Ling before and recognized his original form at a glance.
Li'er raised her arms, a faint red light emanating from her body. Her body instantly became light, and with a "whoosh," she flew towards Shui Ling.
"Splash!" Before she could even reach it, a huge wave of water blasted her back.
"Thump!" Xiao Mei took a step forward, and Li'er's body bumped into her, and the two of them fell down together into the withered grass by the lake...
"Li'er, what are you doing?" Xiao Mei helped Li'er up and frowned as she questioned her.
"He's the one who deceived me." Li'er gritted her teeth, stood firm, and glared angrily at the water spirit in the lake.
"Girl, you've got it wrong. This is our first time meeting." Unexpectedly, Shui Ling wasn't angry when she heard this. She simply bowed slightly and replied in a slightly hoarse voice, without rushing.
