The three of them were stunned to see Dongfang Hao had arrived even earlier than they did. However, they quickly regained their composure, as they were not ordinary individuals.
Once they collected themselves, they walked towards the elegant seating area while speculating in their minds about why Dongfang Hao had arrived before them.
Despite their pondering, they could not figure out the reason behind it.
After all, they had clearly been ahead of Dongfang Hao and had trapped him within a formation. Moreover, they had not seen any sign of him following their carriage along the way.
Dongfang Hao had known they were coming the moment Luo Bingbing's carriage stopped at the entrance of the restaurant. When Luo Bingbing and her companions entered, he merely nodded lightly at them without saying a word.
As Luo Bingbing and her group sat in the elegant seating area waiting for the waiter to serve their dishes, they continued to think about why Dongfang Hao had arrived first.
After a while, Dongfang Hao finished his meal. However, Luo Bingbing's table still had not received their dishes.
So, he slowly walked over to them. Standing in front of Luo Bingbing, he deliberately said, "Little Doll, you really are slow! Look, I've already finished eating while you haven't even started!"
At this point, feeling that his words weren't enough to provoke them, he continued, "Alright, Little Doll, enjoy your meal at your own pace! I'll head upstairs to rest now. But honestly, I don't feel tired at all!"
Upon hearing his words, Luo Bingbing felt furious inside but maintained a calm exterior as if she didn't care at all.
However, Dongfang Hao was not an ordinary person; he could see that this Little One's heart was racing and that there was a fierce fire in her eyes. How could he not know that she was just putting on an act?
Yet he said those things intentionally; he wanted to irritate that Little One.
He disliked seeing her so young yet acting as if nothing mattered to her. Therefore, he aimed to break her cold demeanor.
At the same time, he found it quite amusing to tease Little Doll.
Coldly suppressing her anger, Cold Bingbing glanced at him and said icily, "Are you done?"
Hearing the question from the Little One before him made Dongfang Hao's lips curve slightly upward as he replied slowly, "Basically done."
After hearing his words, Bing Bing's little universe erupted. She loudly said, "Are you done? Hurry up and get lost!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Feng, who was behind Dongfang Hao, wanted to draw his sword. However, before he could do so, Dongfang Hao raised his hand to signal him not to act rashly.
Seeing his master's gesture, Ye Feng stopped drawing his sword, but his eyes remained fiercely fixed on the Little One.
Luo Bingbing naturally sensed Ye Feng's sharp gaze. She slightly raised an eyebrow and released all of her powerful aura.
Once her aura was unleashed, the temperature in the tavern quickly dropped. Fortunately, there were no other customers in the tavern besides their group.
Thus, Luo Bingbing's powerful aura did not cause any panic or draw anyone else's attention.
However, Ye Feng felt the pressure of the Little One's aura up close and couldn't help but feel a surge of blood and astonishment in his heart.
He couldn't help but think to himself, "This Little Doll looks only about five or six years old. How can she be so powerful? Just now, her aura was on par with my master's."
At that moment, he understood why she dared to boldly tell his master to "get lost" and why his master had stopped him from drawing his sword.
Indeed, he realized that he was no match for this Little Doll.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Hao was feeling quite pleased because he believed he had successfully seen through the Little Doll's disguise. Therefore, he completely ignored the word "get lost" that Luo Bingbing had said.
He nodded slightly at the Snow Spirit Elder and then went upstairs to rest.
After a while, the tavern attendant brought them the food and drinks they had ordered. After finishing their meal, they went to their rooms upstairs to rest.
In the deep of night, Luo Bingbing quietly crawled out from under the covers, changed into Male Attire to disguise herself as a Young Boy, and used her Ability to teleport to the cave where the beggars were located.
When those beggars saw her suddenly appear, they were no longer surprised and continued diligently with their training exercises.
After she arrived here, she saw that the beggars were not the least bit negligent; they were all diligently practicing, and none of them were slacking off.
Luo Bingbing noticed that the beggars had already mastered the horse stance, so she began to teach them Taekwondo, guiding them step by step from punching to kicking.
After demonstrating the key points of the movements, Luo Bingbing let them practice on their own while she stood by to correct their postures when they went wrong.
As Luo Bingbing carefully watched them practice, she noticed the beggar clothes they were wearing, and her brows furrowed slightly at the sight.
After pondering for a moment, she decided that when she passed by the fabric shop under Poetic Language Villa tomorrow, she would have them make a few sets of clothes for these hundred people to replace their beggar outfits.
Then, she went inside to check on the food storage and saw that there wasn't much food left. She thought that when she passed by the restaurant under Poetic Language Villa tomorrow, she would ask them to prepare more food and vegetables, as well as some daily necessities. When she came back tomorrow night, she would bring them along with her Ability.
Feeling that the beggars could practice on their own now, Luo Bingbing left the cave and used her Ability to teleport back to her room in the restaurant, changed out of her Male Attire, and returned to bed to continue sleeping.
The next day, after having breakfast, they continued on their journey, with Dongfang Hao's carriage still following closely behind them.
Around noon, Luo Bingbing and her companions arrived at Silk City.
This was a larger and more prosperous city. As they entered Silk City, they saw shops lining both sides of the street filled with various goods.
The carriage moved slowly along the streets of Silk City when suddenly, the Little One inside the carriage spotted a sign outside a restaurant not far ahead that looked exactly like the design on the jade pendant Li Jingshan had given her.
Seeing that the restaurant's sign matched the pattern on her jade pendant perfectly, Luo Bingbing realized that it was an establishment under Poetic Language Villa.
Thus, Luo Bingbing instructed Snow Spirit Elder to drive the carriage to the entrance of that restaurant.
Once the carriage came to a steady stop at the restaurant's entrance, a young attendant hurried over. After Luo Bingbing and her companions got off the carriage, he took it to the restaurant's backyard.
Upon entering the restaurant, Luo Bingbing requested a private room. Once inside the room, she instructed a nearby attendant to invite the Keeper of their restaurant over.
The little one listened to her words and went to summon the innkeeper from their restaurant.
The innkeeper was a middle-aged man, around forty years old. As soon as he entered the private room, he slightly cupped his hands towards Luo Bingbing and the other two, saying, "May I ask what brings you here, esteemed guests?"
Upon hearing his words, Xuan Ye and Snow Spirit Elder remained silent. Only Luo Bingbing took out a jade pendant from her arms, held it in her hand, and said to him, "Take a look at this."
The innkeeper stepped forward, examined the jade pendant closely, and quickly knelt before Luo Bingbing, saying, "I pay my respects to the Master of Shiyu Villa. I did not realize it was you, Master of Shiyu Villa. I apologize for any offense caused."
After hearing his words, Luo Bingbing calmly replied, "Get up! I am not your Master of Shiyu Villa."
"I understand, but the Master of Shiyu Villa has instructed that seeing the jade pendant is like seeing the Master of Shiyu Villa in person. Therefore, if you have any commands, please feel free to tell me; I will ensure they are carried out," the innkeeper quickly responded after hearing the little one's words.
"Well then, please bring some signature dishes from the restaurant!" After Luo Bingbing finished speaking, she waved her hand to dismiss him.
Soon after, the innkeeper personally delivered the requested food and drinks to their private room.
Once the innkeeper placed the dishes on the table, Luo Bingbing asked Xuan Ye and Snow Spirit Elder to start eating while she called the innkeeper to the adjacent room.
She instructed him to go out and buy some grains and dried food for her. Then she asked him to go to the largest fabric shop in Silk City and bring back all the clothes that had already been made.
Upon hearing this, the innkeeper immediately set off to follow her instructions.
Coincidentally, the largest fabric shop in Silk City happened to be owned by Poetic Language Villa. Therefore, everything Luo Bingbing wanted was quickly arranged by the innkeeper.
Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye did not inquire about the little one's mysterious matters, but Your Majesty Dongfang Hao was different.
Seeing that the little one had a private meeting with the innkeeper, he immediately sent his shadow guard Ye Feng to follow him.
However, the innkeeper had already received instructions from Luo Bingbing and was aware that someone would be following him. Thus, he secretly dispatched others to buy grains and clothing as well.
Ye Feng followed for a long time but did not see any special actions from the Keeper of the tavern, so he returned to report to Dongfang Hao.
After listening to Ye Feng's report, Dongfang Hao couldn't help but furrow his brows. Based on his observations of the Little One, it was unlikely that she would summon a complete stranger without reason.
Therefore, he felt that the Little Doll must be up to something he was unaware of.
However, the Keeper of the tavern had not gone out all day and remained inside, making it impossible to find out what the Little One was doing.
After failing to gather information from the tavern's Keeper about Luo Bingbing's intentions, Dongfang Hao focused intently on Luo Bingbing.
He thought that he would surely find answers from the Little One.
But he did not realize that even if he stood right outside Luo Bingbing's door and watched closely, it would be futile; the Little One could still leave quietly and return just as silently.
The Innkeeper, following Luo Bingbing's instructions, had his subordinates load the purchased food and clothing onto several carts and transport them to a Small Mountain Valley outside Silk City.
Since he had already instructed the Keeper to buy food and clothing, Luo Bingbing and her group did not continue their journey in the afternoon.
In Luo Bingbing's words, after traveling for so many days, her backside felt like it was about to split in two, so it was time to stop and rest.
Late at night, Luo Bingbing quietly crawled out from under her covers, gently changed into Male Attire, and used her Ability to teleport to the Small Mountain Valley outside Silk City.
Upon finding the carts, Luo Bingbing instructed the strong men driving them to unload everything and pile it together.
Then she had them return to Silk City with the carts while she used her Ability to transport the items into the cave in several trips.
Since the storage area for those supplies was deep within the cave, no beggar saw her transporting those items inside.
After finishing transporting everything, Luo Bingbing went to where the beggars practiced their skills.
The beggars showed no surprise at her sudden appearance. After greeting her, they continued to focus on their training.
Luo Bingbing was very satisfied with their performance.
Before leaving the cave, Luo Bingbing informed the beggars that there were new supplies of food and clothing inside the cave, and that they could collect one set each after finishing their training.
Since Luo Bingbing trained them using methods from the Twenty-First Century for special forces, her discipline was very strict, and none of the beggars dared to defy her wishes.
The next day, Luo Bingbing and her group left the tavern and continued their journey toward Spirit Mountain.
Time passed quickly in those peaceful days, and before long, six or seven days had gone by. During this time, Dongfang Hao continued to follow Luo Bingbing and her group at a leisurely pace.
One evening, a heavy rain suddenly began to fall. Due to the intensity of the rain, they could not travel, so both of Luo Bingbing's and Dongfang Hao's carriages took shelter in a dilapidated temple.
Before long, the rain stopped, but it was already dark, and they found themselves in a remote area with no village or inn nearby—there was not a single household in sight.
Thus, Luo Bingbing and her companions had no choice but to stay in the broken temple for the night.
Their food consisted of wild game from the forest. Dongfang Hao wanted roasted meat, so Luo Bingbing allowed him to exchange it as he had done before—with one hundred taels of gold. After Dongfang Hao complied and gave her one hundred taels of gold, Little One finally provided him with roasted meat.
As they were eating, they suddenly sensed the presence of other people in the air. Soon after, strange laughter echoed around them.
