Luo Bingbing and her companions were all skilled, so they naturally sensed that the fierce tigers in the mountains were rushing towards them.
Due to the large number of tigers, they prepared to avoid them and all leaped to the side.
At this moment, Luo Bingbing had not yet had the chance to implement her plan, so she had to abandon her plan to subdue them.
Although she gave up on that perfect subjugation plan, she did not give up on her desire to subdue the Green-Eyed Middle-Aged Woman.
Therefore, before the Middle-Aged Woman reached the branch where they were, Luo Bingbing swiftly floated down to the ground using her Ability, before Snow Spirit Elder and the others could react.
Once Snow Spirit Elder and the Middle-Aged Woman saw that the Little One had already descended, they quickly floated down as well.
However, Dongfang Hao and his shadow guard Ye Feng did not go down to the ground.
Dongfang Hao only wanted to watch the show, especially Luo Bingbing's performance. He was very willing to sit back and watch the drama unfold.
After landing, the Middle-Aged Woman had all her tiger friends surround Luo Bingbing, Snow Spirit Elder, and Xuan Ye.
The three of them, surrounded by tigers, did not say a word throughout.
Luo Bingbing had her own intentions, and both Xuan Ye and Snow Spirit Elder understood that this Little One must have her reasons for acting this way, so they remained silent as well.
With a piercing gaze fixed on the Middle-Aged Woman, Luo Bingbing slowly said, "I know you hate humanity and despise your own green eyes. But I truly admire your eyes because they shine like jewels."
Upon hearing her words, the Middle-Aged Woman felt a storm of emotions rise within her and asked without thinking, "Aren't you afraid?"
After hearing her words, Luo Bingbing couldn't help but smile slightly and said calmly, "Fear? Don't even mention it; the word 'fear' doesn't exist in my dictionary. Even your green eyes are nothing special."
Before she could fully absorb Luo Bingbing's words, the Little One threw another bombshell at her.
The Little One said, "In a country I know, there are not only people with green eyes like yours, but also those with blue eyes, red eyes, and brown eyes. They all get along well with others, and I've seen them myself."
Upon hearing this, not only was the Middle-Aged Woman shocked, but even the Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye, as well as Dongfang Hao and Ye Feng who were standing on the tree, were equally astonished.
The Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye knew that Luo Bingbing was a Divine Star from the Otherworld, so they were merely surprised by the variety of eye colors among Otherworlders.
Dongfang Hao was different; he felt not only shock but also confusion.
According to the investigation by the Demon Palace, Luo Bingbing had been neglected since childhood and had never stepped out of Prince Luo's Residence. He simply couldn't understand how the Little One knew about people with differently colored eyes or where she had seen them.
Luo Bingbing's words made everyone ponder deeply and completely overturned the Middle-Aged Woman's understanding. She fell into deep thought and was unable to regain her composure for a long time.
However, Luo Bingbing paid no attention to her daze. After glancing at the Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye beside her, she continued speaking to her, "Let's make a deal! If you can touch the hem of my clothes, I'll admit defeat; otherwise, if I win, you must follow me out of the mountains and work for me."
Upon hearing her words, the Middle-Aged Woman instantly snapped back to reality. She looked directly at the Little One across from her and sneered, "Hahaha... Hypocrite! Why should I believe you? What gives you the right to make such demands?"
Hearing her hoarse and unpleasant voice, Luo Bingbing couldn't help but frown slightly. Realizing that her previous words hadn't moved her heart, Luo Bingbing decided to provoke her.
With a slight smirk on her lips, she wickedly said, "What's wrong? Are you afraid? Afraid that you'll lose? Afraid to face the outside world?"
"Afraid? Who says I'm afraid?"
"Since you're not afraid, why don't you dare to fight?" After a pause, Luo Bingbing continued, "Don't you want revenge? Don't you want to trample those who have bullied you in the past underfoot?"
After hearing Luo Bingbing's words, the Middle-Aged Woman hesitated slightly, her heart struggling with conflicting thoughts. Seeing her hesitant expression, Luo Bingbing knew she had made an impact. So, she pressed on with stronger words.
"If I were you, I would trample them all underfoot. If others look down on me, then I will live better and stronger than them, crushing them beneath my feet so they can never rise again."
As the Green-Eyed Middle-Aged Woman wavered, Luo Bingbing's words tipped the balance in her heart.
She fixed her intense gaze on Little One across from her and said in a hoarse voice, "Alright, I accept your challenge."
With that, the Middle-Aged Woman let out a few tiger roars, commanding the tigers to attack Luo Bingbing and her companions.
Once her roars ceased, Luo Bingbing turned to the Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye beside her and said, "Be careful, but take it easy; don't kill these tigers."
Although Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye were filled with questions about why she wanted to do this, they nodded in agreement without asking further.
Soon, a life-and-death struggle between humans and tigers began.
Luo Bingbing and her companions were to show mercy, while the tigers and the Middle-Aged Woman would not hold back. Thus, this spectacle was bound to be thrilling.
A dozen tigers surrounded the three of them as they formed a triangular formation, each facing one side.
However, the Middle-Aged Woman stood directly opposite Luo Bingbing, and the battle was about to erupt. Luo Bingbing secretly activated her Ability within her body.
She thought that as long as she slowed down the Speed of her Ability a bit, Dongfang Hao in the tree should not notice anything unusual.
The Middle-Aged Woman launched an attack on the three individuals within the encirclement at the same time as the two fierce tigers. Both the Snow Spirit Elder and Xuan Ye moved, while only Luo Bingbing remained still.
She was waiting for an opportunity to instantly win over the heart of the Middle-Aged Woman.
Though she stood motionless, she knew that the Middle-Aged Woman was communicating with the two tigers behind her, preparing to launch a simultaneous assault and ambush.
As she saw them inching closer, a slight smile crept onto Luo Bingbing's lips as she thought, "I've been waiting for you."
Perched in a tree, Dongfang Hao observed the Middle-Aged Woman and the two tigers slowly closing in on the Little One. A faint smile appeared on his face as he thought, "The show is finally about to begin."
When he noticed that the Middle-Aged Woman and the two tigers were only a meter away from the Little One, he expected the Little One to move any moment now.
However, Luo Bingbing planned to wait until the Middle-Aged Woman was right in front of her before using her Ability to teleport away from their attack and ambush. Thus, she remained completely still.
Dongfang Hao watched as the distance between the Middle-Aged Woman, the two tigers, and the Little One closed to just two steps, yet the Little One still stood unmoving.
Concerned, Dongfang Hao began to worry. He wondered if perhaps the Little Doll had been injured and was unable to move, which explained why she remained standing there.
Seeing Luo Bingbing standing still, the Middle-Aged Woman thought to herself, "I can win this easily."
She and the elder tiger swiftly launched their attack and ambush against Luo Bingbing. Meanwhile, Luo Bingbing planned to dodge at the last moment when their attacks were about to land on her.
However, as Dongfang Hao saw that the attack was already coming and Luo Bingbing had not yet dodged, he quickly leaped down from the tree. He pushed the Middle-Aged Woman away with one hand and pulled Luo Bingbing out of harm's way.
It wasn't until he felt pain in his back that Dongfang Hao realized he had instinctively saved this Little Doll. Holding a soft Little One in his arms, he found it strangely endearing.
His thoughts did not consider saving anyone, but his body acted first, and he had no regrets.
His reason for this was that the Little Doll was his prey, and no one else could touch it.
Luo Bingbing was originally thinking that her opportunity had finally come. Soon, she would use her Ability to teleport away, but before the time was right, she found herself tightly wrapped in a warm embrace.
After bringing the Little One to a safe place nearby, Dongfang Hao slowly set her down and anxiously asked, "Doll, are you hurt?"
As soon as she left that embrace, Luo Bingbing saw that it was Dongfang Hao who had taken her away from that place. Knowing that her plan had been completely thwarted by him, she felt a surge of anger.
Hearing Dongfang Hao's question, she coldly replied, "Mind your own business." With that, she quickly turned and leaped back into the circle of tigers.
Dongfang Hao was taken aback by her words and thought to himself: Shouldn't I have saved her? In fact, even now, he still couldn't understand why he had run down to save her in the first place!
While Dongfang Hao was lost in thought, a tiger suddenly sprang out from the side and lunged at him swiftly.
