Quick Wear: My hair changed color, and I became stronger

“Ah, I… I…” Xiao Jin lowered his head with a guilty look on his face, stammering as he tried to get away with it.

However, Bai Zhenxi mercilessly shattered her fantasy and said succinctly, "Xiao Jin tried to destroy the water lotus, but was injured by the magic I cast on the flower."

The clan leader's expression darkened instantly. His imposing presence weighed down like a heavy mountain, forcing Xiao Jin to not even dare to raise her head. "Although Xiao Jin is my daughter, I will not tolerate her actions that endanger the future of the Water Tribe!" His voice was icy cold, carrying an unquestionable determination.

Bai Zhenxi didn't plead for Xiao Jin. In fact, he knew full well that, judging by Xiao Jin's past behavior, she wouldn't be punished too harshly this time. After all, from childhood to adulthood, no matter what trouble Xiao Jin got into, the clan leader had always been incredibly tolerant of her.

As expected, the clan leader simply announced Xiao Jin's punishment: "One week of confinement."

Xiao Jin felt very wronged, but her father was angry, so she didn't dare to say anything and could only nod reluctantly.

The patriarch gave the maid, who was as quiet as an invisible person, a look, and the maid understood and helped Xiao Jin up and left.

The wizard finally realized he'd been tricked! Rage erupted in him like a volcano, and he quickly directed his anger at the tribe leader: "What a 'great' tribe leader! Your daughter, who committed such a serious crime, received such a trivial punishment? Humph, if this continues, the Water Tribe will have no future!" His words were filled with undisguised sarcasm and ridicule.

Chi Li watched happily from the side without saying a word. She thought to herself, fight, fight, no one will die from quarreling like this.

To her disappointment, the clan leader was not angry at all. He said to the wizard in a gentle voice, "Zhenxi has protected the water lotus very well. Since the treasure has not been destroyed, why bother the child?"

"Little friend? Ha!" The wizard didn't want to waste any more time talking to this old bastard, so he just flicked his sleeves and left.

"I'm sorry to make a fool of myself, Lord Demon King. My daughter has been spoiled." After everyone left, the clan leader said to Chi Li.

Chi Li smiled and shook her head, "Oh, it doesn't matter, as long as the flowers are still good."

The clan leader looked at Bai Zhenxi, who had a serious expression on her face, and said to Chi Li, "Are you satisfied with Zhenxi's performance over the past two days?"

Chi Li thought of the magnificent scenery under the blue fish tail, and her heart couldn't help but ripple. "I'm very satisfied. You aquatic creatures are really not simple." She said it with a teasing tone.

Hearing her suggestive words, Bai Zhenxi's face instantly turned red with embarrassment.

"I'm glad that you are satisfied. I already know that you have lost your memory. After you absorb the daffodils, I will let Zhenxi and you go to the Dream City to find the realm of reincarnation." The patriarch said with a smile.

"Can he get out if the seal is not lifted?" Chi Li asked.

The tribe leader laughed and said, "Our water tribe's wizard is no slouch. During this long period of time, he has created a pill that can break through the barrier and temporarily transform into a human."

"The wizard is truly extraordinary, but does this medicine have any side effects?" Chi Li asked worriedly. She didn't want Bai Zhenxi to get hurt.

"No." Bai Zhenxi said calmly.

"That's good. With you by my side, I will definitely be invincible." Chi Li winked at him.

"Hmph!" Bai Zhenxi turned her head away and snorted coldly.

------

Bai Zhenxi went to work on the task assigned by the patriarch, leaving Chi Li alone in the empty room. Her face darkened. She admitted that she was not smart enough, but she knew Bai Zhenxi very well and he was definitely lying today.

"What are the side effects? Ask a wizard? No way..." Chi Li paced back and forth in the room in distress.

She suddenly thought of Xiao Jin, who was in solitary confinement. She wanted to destroy the water lotus, which must be related to Bai Zhenxi. She must know something.

Without hesitation, Chi Li stepped out, heading straight for Xiao Jin. She cleverly avoided familiar faces who had appeared before the clan leader, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. After careful inquiry and exploration, she finally found Xiao Jin's confinement relatively smoothly.

Surprisingly, this place turned out to be Xiao Jin's bedroom! Chi Li couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "She is worthy of being the patriarch's most beloved daughter. Even after committing such a serious mistake, she is still safe and sound. How enviable!" Chi Li gently knocked on Xiao Jin's door.

It was a maid who opened the door. Chi Li waved in a friendly manner and said, "Hello, I want to talk to Xiao Jin."

Before the maid could say anything, she heard Xiao Jin's arrogant voice coming from inside the house: "Hehe, please invite our Lord Demon King in."

Chi Li walked in and found Xiao Jin sitting at a round table drinking. Her hair was disheveled and she looked at Chi Li with sarcasm, "What? Lord Demon King, do you have the leisure to laugh at me?" Although she called him Lord, she didn't have any respect at all.

Chi Li didn't care. The smell of alcohol was too strong, and she couldn't help but fan the air in front of her nose with her hand.

Xiao Jin thought she was disgusted with her, and his face instantly turned ugly.

"I have something to ask you, Miss Xiao." Chi Li said politely.

"What's the matter? About Brother Xi? I tell you, even if you get him, you can't get his heart." Xiao Jin reacted violently and slammed the wine glass heavily on the table.

Chi Li was startled. She just found Xiao Jin's words funny and said, "Why do I need his heart? I just like him as a person, hahahaha."

Xiao Jin cursed angrily: "You are shameless."

"Oh." Chi Li replied indifferently.

Seeing that Xiao Jin didn't seem to be planning to curse anymore, Chi Li said seriously, "Your father plans to have Bai Zhenxi take a pill to temporarily regain legs so that she can go to the City of Illusions with me. Does that pill have any side effects?"

Xiao Jin didn't expect that this was the question she really wanted to ask. She told him the truth: "Yes, his legs feel like they are being pricked by needles every minute he walks on the road. If his legs touch even a drop of water, they will immediately turn into fish tails."

Seeing Chi Li fall silent, Xiao Jin added, "This is what I overheard when the wizard was first researching the pill. The pill was later improved, so there must be other side effects."

The worry in Xiao Jin's eyes was real, and Chi Li chose to believe her. "Thank you, Miss Xiao, I understand." She thanked her politely.

"Why do you ask? Can you please not take Brother Bai away? Since you care about the side effects of the pills, it proves that you must be worried about him too, right?" There was a pleading look in Xiao Jin's eyes.
