Flying Dust

Chapter 53 Part 1

He then looked at Madam Qu, her gaze remained on Qu Shaofeng and on her daughter’s back. Mo Fei Chen was indifferent in his heart, after freeing herself from his devil father and her son from her previous marriage, Wu Qing Yan was lucky to have married a good man, otherwise she would not have been able to live a good life with her own ability only.

Lu Qingmo’s fingers tapped on the edge of the fence. He was not interested in the competition on the stage at all. His eyes sweep over Mo Fei Chen from time to time as he seemed to have realized something from it.

There were no experts who were able to release the spiritual sword in today’s martial arts competition and the whole thing was looking more and more like a street performance.

As the sky grew dark, Qu Shaofeng announced that the tournament was over for today and that everyone was welcome to come back tomorrow and the next two days.

Back at the Yu Lin Sect, Qu Shaofeng prepared a good meal to entertain Mo Fei Chen and Lu Qingmo.

Yu Lin Sect was not as luxurious as one imagined, all the decorations were simple, but there were many paintings and calligraphy hanging on the walls, all of which looked like fine works of art. Mo Fei Chen observed Qu Shaofeng’s clothes and found that he was not a flamboyant person. The disciples of the sect were also dressed in simple clothes, but looking at Madam Qu’s head ornaments and Qu Xiruo’s outfit, he was not stingy with his wife and daughter, he even doted on them.

“Father, why is there not even one person who can use the sword Qi today?” Qu Xiruo flattened her mouth, although the food was served, she had no desire to move her chopsticks.

Qu Shaofeng smiled toward Lu Qingmo and Mo Fei Chen, then turned to his daughter and said, “Xiruo, there are not many young practised swordsmen of your age who know how to use their sword qi. Do you want to marry an old man like your father?”

“But Lu Da Xia [Basically it means great swordsman or big swordsman] is so young, he’s already one of the top ten swordsmen and even dad says that your kung fu might not be as good as his.”

Mo Fei Chen smiled with closed lips, deliberately bumping his leg against Lu Qingmo’s. He did not expect the other party’s palm to press his thigh. Lu Qingmo’s palm was slightly hot, and it passed through the fabric. Mo Fei Chen was suddenly a little embarrassed and slowly withdrew his leg.

Madam Qu, who hadn’t said much, took her daughter’s hand in amusement, “Stop fooling around, you also know that the great warrior Lu is here.”

Qu Shaofeng turned his head and said, “Why don’t Lu Xiándì and Mo Shao Xia stay for a few more days and come for a drink at the wedding feast?”

Mo Fei Chen frowned, as long as he didn’t find He Yunfeng, he would be worried that something would happen to him in Xi Yu. Lu Qingmo understood what Mo Fei Chen was worried about, “Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Qu, but this humble one is passing through Yu Lin Town because I have to go to some place for some important business. I can’t stay long. Fei Chen and I are planning to leave tomorrow and continue our journey.”

Qu Xiruo’s face suddenly fell, Mo Fei Chen also understood that getting rid of Mt Wu (on the Changjiang River (Yangtze) by the Three Gorges) was not a cloud logic, after all, how many girls can like other men after seeing Lu Qingmo?

“Young lady Qu doesn’t have to be upset that there is no expert in today’s martial arts competition. The arena today is actually a wheelbarrow battle (tactic of several persons taking turns in fighting one opponent to tire him out). If you go on the stage early, you will be challenged by many and it will consume your physical strength too much.If there is a young man who has a heart for you, he will definitely wait until the last day to compete.” Mo Fei Chen thought to himself, ‘I’m leaving, so I’d better comfort this sister of mine.’

“Really?” Qu Xiruo’s face looked bright again.

Mo Fei Chen looked at Qu Shaofeng and said, “Since it’s a wedding invitation from Sect Master Qu, naturally you already sent invitations to the disciples of other sects, it’s just that since it’s the first day today, so they may not have arrived already, and even if they do, they will be watching from the shadows for the right moment.”

Qu Shaofeng laughed, stroking his moustache as he said, “Exactly, this humble one have invited Luo Qing Yu of the Xiushui Palace, Meng Yu, a disciple of Qingyi Hou, Wei Ping Lan who is Jin Ziyu’s nephew, and Li Du, one of Mo Shao Xia’s Shi Xiong.”

Mo Fei Chen heard Meng Yu’s name, first, he gave a wink to Lu Qingmo. Back then, he was chasing after Meng Yu to avenge Li Du before he boarded Lu Qingmo’s boat.

“My Li Shi Xiong?” Mo Fei Chen looked at Qu Xiruo and said, “This Shi Xiong of mine is very nice. When I was abandoned on Mount Kun Yun, the first person who picked me up from the chair and coaxed me was Li Shi Xiong. Although he is not as elegant as Lu Dage, he is definitely a handsome young man.”

Madam Qu, who was standing beside them froze, “Young warrior, your surname is Mo… were you abandoned on the mountain? “

Qu Shaofeng gave a wink to his wife, it meant that the person had accidentally mentioned something sad, yet why do you still continue to ask?

Mrs. Qu also realised that she had misbehaved, “Ah, I’m sorry. Mo Shao Xia, you’d better eat your food ba, eat more.”

Mo Fei Chen smiled blandly, “Madam Qu doesn’t need to mind, most of the disciples in Kun Yun Mountain Manor don’t have parents.”

After that, Madam Qu took a dish with her chopsticks for her daughter while observing Mo Fei Chen and stay calm and collected without making any sound.

He knew that Madam Qu was already suspecting that he was the child who she had abandoned in the mountain manor’s hall.

In the evening, Mo Fei Chen and Lu Qingmo were arranged in separate guest rooms, but they were only separated by a wall. The steward had prepared hot water for him to bathe in. Mo Fei Chen had rushed for two days and was covered in dust, so he really needed to soak in the hot water…and rub a few of the ten perfect pills out of his body.

The door opened and Lu Qingmo walked in, he naturally pulled a chair and sat in front of the bath barrel.

Mo Fei Chen could only put his head on the edge and look at him, “Lu Dage, I’m taking a bath, if you have something to say can you talk about it later?”

Lu Qingmo pulled the chair a little closer, “Your face is so red from the heat, it’s really cute.”

If he didn’t soak the hot water, Mo Fei Chen would have had goose bumps all over his body.

“Or…” Lu Qingmo stretched out his arm and hooked his fingers into the wet hair around Mo Fei Chen’s ear, slowly pulling it towards him and then lowering it, the hair traced an arc in the air and fell back to the water, “Madam Qu also I think that you’re very cute (lovable).”
