The water blade stopped just two centimeters from her throat. The woman didn't dare to move as she could feel the cold air radiating from the blade.
Seeing her pale face and noticing that she had wet herself, Jiao Lizhi clicked her tongue and said with a smile, "So useless! The reason is simple, because I'm strong, and you are weak."
Noticing the hatred in the woman's eyes, Jiao Lizhi added with a smile, "If you hate me, then get stronger and fight back. If you can't, then live the rest of your life being trampled by the strong."
As soon as she finished speaking, she clenched her fist, and the water blade turned into a splash of water that drenched the woman's face.
After witnessing her display of power, the large group of people became more obedient. Though her methods were crude and harsh, they were effective.
As she sat there, the soldiers finally brought over several large iron pots and asked, "Sister-in-law, can you help us fill these pots?"
"Sure," Jiao Lizhi replied.
With a wave of her hand, several water balls appeared above the pots and poured in.
Watching her effortlessly control the water, Chu Zhimiao let out a long sigh.
Hearing this, Li Yang turned to look at her and asked, "Miaomiao, what's wrong?"
Chu Zhimiao let out another long sigh and asked, "Li Yang, why do you think there is such a huge difference in strength and skill when both Lizhi and I are water-type ability users?"
When he heard her question, Li Yang thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, but everyone is different. Even if you aren't as strong as her, you have your own merits for sure."
"Then, what is my merit?" Chu Zhimiao asked curiously.
"I don't know," Li Yang shrugged.
The moment she heard his answer, Chu Zhimiao rolled her eyes and said, "I shouldn't have asked you."
Li Yang laughed when he saw her rolling her eyes and said, "Miaomiao, you told me before that I am me and I don't have to compare myself with others. So, why are you comparing yourself with Jiao Lizhi now?"
"No matter how strong she is, it has nothing to do with you. You only need to focus on yourself and walk your road confidently."
When she heard his words, Chu Zhimiao's eyes lit up. At that moment, she felt as if the fog covering her eyes had finally disappeared.
Her friend was right. In this world, there was only one Chu Zhimiao. So, she didn't have to compare herself to Jiao Lizhi since they were different people to begin with. She would find her own path one day.
After reaching this conclusion, she no longer felt depressed and said, "Li Yang, thank you!"
"Well, you are welcome," Li Yang said and added, "You should go to sleep now; it's late."
