As night fell, Luo Bingbing quietly got up after the Nursemaid had fallen asleep. She quickly changed her clothes and vanished into the darkness, evading the hidden sentries of the Minggang within the royal residence, heading towards the Purple Bamboo Forest outside the city. Throughout this entire process, no one in Prince Luo's Residence noticed, not even Lo An Lord, who had already returned to the manor.
Since Shadowless had not yet returned, Luo Bingbing found herself back in the solitary practice and cultivation routine she had once known. However, unlike before, her Ability level had now reached White Level, just one step away from the pinnacle—Gold Level. Her skills had long since returned to their peak from her previous life, making her current training feel redundant. Thus, her nightly visits were solely for honing her Ability.
Every night, she would venture out after dark and return at dawn, waking up later than usual. As she was now the authority in the royal residence, many more people were secretly observing her. They all sighed in unison, "This Little Princess really can sleep! She only gets up when the sun is high."
Her schedule soon became known to Lo An Lord. At first, he found it quite strange and thought to himself, "Why does my beloved daughter sleep so much? Why does she only get up when the sun is high? Is she feeling unwell?"
However, when he discussed this matter with Strategist Gongsun Ming, he recalled that his beloved daughter had mentioned practicing in the Purple Bamboo Forest outside the city every day that afternoon. Thus, he decided to let her be. Yet he felt puzzled; clearly, the guards in the residence had not reported anyone leaving at night, nor had the Dark Guard noticed her comings and goings. How was she managing to leave and return unnoticed?
Perplexed by this mystery, he conferred with Strategist Gongsun Ming about keeping watch outside Luo Bingbing's Piaoyun Pavilion that night to see where this Little One was going and how she managed to do so.
So that evening, Lo An Lord and his capable assistant Gongsun Ming took their positions early outside Piaoyun Pavilion, eager to find answers. However, how could their movements escape someone as perceptive as Luo Bingbing? As soon as they arrived outside Piaoyun Pavilion's courtyard, she sensed their presence but chose to ignore them and continued with her routine of leaving and returning.
The next day, as dawn broke over the mountain tops, Luo Bingbing rose on time and opened her door. Meanwhile, Lo An Lord and Strategist Gongsun Ming had spent an entire night watching without catching sight of her leaving or returning. They were left bewildered and wondered aloud, "Could it be that she didn't go out? But why does she wake up so late every day?" Unable to solve this riddle, they decided to return to their own quarters at first light and resolve to ask Luo Bingbing about it when they saw her.
They failed to consider whether Luo Bingbing's martial arts skills were on par with theirs; let alone that she possessed a mysterious Ability. If they could detect her movements so easily, what would be left for her?
After Lo An Lord learned more about recent events in Prince Luo's Residence, his disdain for Consort Luo and his Peacock Daughter deepened. At the same time, he felt increasingly guilty towards Luo Bingbing. This guilt was accompanied by profound confusion: how could no one have discovered that she was a disciple of Snow Spirit Elder with such formidable skills? Why had there been such a stark contrast in her personality lately? Countless questions raced through his mind, but he could not grasp any answers.
That morning, as usual, Luo Bingbing returned to her Piaoyun Pavilion. However, before she could enter her room, she sensed an unfamiliar presence inside aside from that of her little fox. She couldn't help but mutter inwardly: "Which reckless fool dares to intrude into my room? Are they tired of living?"
Suddenly, she waved her hand and set up an invisible barrier around herself, activating her ability, and instantly appeared in the room.
What caught her eye was a small fox sitting in the center of the table, staring intently at an old man with silver hair and a white beard and eyebrows.
Seeing this scene, even someone as composed as Luo Bingbing was taken aback. She thought some reckless "mouse" had entered! To her surprise, it was an old man, and such a peculiar one at that.
There was not a trace of danger emanating from him, but Luo Bingbing knew that anyone who could enter her room quietly without alarming the hidden guards in Prince Luo's Residence was certainly not an ordinary person.
"He's so casual in my territory; why should I remain invisible?" Luo Bingbing thought to herself and snapped her fingers, dispelling the invisibility barrier and revealing herself.
As soon as Luo Bingbing lifted the barrier, the small fox caught a whiff of her scent in the air and quickly turned to leap onto her, looking quite pleased.
The old man with silver hair and a white beard was actually the Snow Spirit Elder from Ling Mountain. Last month, he had brought the Snow Spirit Fox down from Ling Mountain to play chess with an old friend on Wuji Mountain. The two were evenly matched and both masters of their craft, so they played for an entire month before ending in a draw.
While on Wuji Mountain, he had been engrossed in chess and had no time to pay attention to the Snow Spirit Fox. Feeling bored being around them, the clever and adorable Snow Spirit Fox wandered off to play elsewhere.
It just so happened that it encountered Luo Bingbing at a hot spring. The Snow Spirit Fox quickly realized that the grilled meat she made was delicious and became completely captivated by it, refusing to leave.
Due to his keen sense of smell, after finishing his game on Wuji Mountain, the Snow Spirit Elder followed the unique scent left behind by the Snow Spirit Fox to find it.
To his surprise, when he tracked down the Snow Spirit Fox in Luo Bingbing's room following its scent, it did not seem as happy to return with him as before. Instead of following him back, it appeared quite displeased.
At this moment, the Snow Spirit Elder felt frustrated and didn't know what to do. Since the Snow Spirit Fox had a strong spiritual connection with him, even if he forcibly took it back, it would likely escape again. Moreover, this little creature was currently very unwilling to leave! So he sat there staring at the small fox in silence.
When he saw the little fox staring at him and then suddenly stop, he felt quite puzzled. Before he could figure it out, he noticed the little fox swiftly turned and pounced towards his side. Curious to understand, he quickly turned around, his gaze closely following the figure of the Snow Spirit Fox.
So, when the Snow Spirit Fox jumped into Luo Bingbing's arms, he also caught sight of her small figure. He couldn't help but feel astonished; he was on the verge of death, and in this world, only a few Old Monsters could match him, yet they might not even surpass him! How did this Little Doll enter the room without him noticing at all?
Moreover, the fact that the Snow Spirit Fox was so happy to see her indicated that its reluctance to return to the mountain with him was due to this Little Doll. The ability to enter this room without his knowledge, to silently stand behind him, and to make the highly Spiritual Connection Snow Spirit Fox willingly stay in such a short time—all these signs suggested that this Little Doll was extraordinary and not an ordinary person.
