Chapter 36 – Enthusiasm at the Mid-Autumn Festival (part 4)
After Bai Xi climbed over the wall, she looked around the courtyard and subconsciously glanced at the door . Just as she did, the door opened, and an impressive figure dressed in white entered . His gold eyes met her black ones .
Feng Ming . What was he doing here? She clearly heard him say that he would return to the capital somewhere between 11am to 1pm, but it was still about 10am . Why did he suddenly return to the capital? How was he already at Luo Yue Xuan? It seemed he had already returned to Luo Yue Xuan earlier than that .
However, in contrast to her surprise, Feng Ming’s face did not show any signs of emotion, like she didn’t even exist .
“Oldest brother, who is he? Why did he suddenly come over the wall from Young Miss Bai Xi’s courtyard?” Qing Wu called out . “Ah, it can’t be? Is this man a flower thief1?”
“Idiot . ”
“If you say he isn’t a flower thief, then who is he? Could he be the object of Young Miss Bai Xi’s affection?” Qing Wu whispered discontentedly . He hated that someone had called him an idiot . If it wasn’t for the fact that his oldest brother had just rescued him from master, then he wouldn’t be swallowing his anger now .
The loud noise of a large tree being destroyed by 3 people with strong force sounded about 5 metres2 away from Qing Wu . The branches fell to the surrounding ground . At this point, the sturdy tree trunk was under heavy pressure, and several cracks appeared on the ground .
This time, Qing Wu was amazed . If it wasn’t for his oldest brother, he might be under the big tree by now . However, when he looked at Feng Ming, his eyes were filled with worship . As expected of his master . Only his master could be so daring and resolute .
Qing Yun looked at Qing Wu’s eyes which were radiating light and couldn’t help but smack his forehead . This thought process of his younger brother was different from normal people’s . However, why was master suddenly angry? In that instant, he obviously felt his master’s fury .
Bai Xi was astounded as she stared at the remains of the large tree . Was this his real strength? Although she had heard he was strong, seeing it was a different matter .
“You are trespassing? Die!” After he spat out those four words, that man had already walked to the corridor, but he showed no signs of continuing . He decided to stand there, the pair of gold eyes looking straight forward .
Qing Yun had already flown over, attacking with a deadly wind with both his palms . His 3 strikes, however, were unable to kill Bai Xi . Perhaps this was due to him underestimating his opponent .
Compared to Qing Yun who had a lot of internal force, Bai Xi didn’t have much, but she had her training from her current life and her experience from her previous life . While she was unable to defeat the amazing Qing Yun, she was still able to dodge his attacks .
Qing Yun was very fast, but she wasn’t slow . One person on offense, the other on defence . They were at a deadlock . Qing Wu stood to the side, anxious . What was his oldest brother doing? Why hadn’t he killed the kid already? He could distinctly tell that the kid had no internal force, even when almost 20 moves had been exchanged . How come that kid hadn’t suffered a loss already? His oldest brother wasn’t weak, was he?
Finally, Qing Wu couldn’t stand by and watch anymore . He drew his sword and attacked Bai Xi, who had her hands full with Qing Yun . His sword flashed under the sun, emitting a dazzling light .
Bai Xi detected his surprise attack and was shocked . Damn it, a sneak attack! She took a step back quickly . She intended to fly out and use her cold ice silver needles, but a strong gust of wind blocked Qing Qu and Qing Yun’s attacks .
“Let her3 leave . ”
“Yes . ” Qing Yun retracted his palms . Actually, when Qing Wu drew his sword, he had already recovered most of his skills, leaving only 10% .
“Master, but…” After Qing Wu heard Feng Ming’s order, he swallowed his words and reluctantly sheathed his sword .
After Bai Xi put back the cold ice needles, she focussed her attention on Feng Ming . Why did this man suddenly change his mind? Forget it . Regardless of what he was thinking, she’d better leave before the man changed his mind .
However, before she left, she glared at Qing Wu . Qing Wu was confused . What happened?

“Master, why did you let that intruder go?” Qing Wu asked impatiently as soon as Bai Xi left .
Feng Ming didn’t even glance at Qing Wu, and instead walked on the wind . He glanced over at Xi Yuan and the corners of his mouth raised slightly .
“Go and prepare the carriage . Master wants to go to the imperial palace . ” Qing Yun glared at his younger twin, inwardly furious . Why did he have such an idiot for a younger brother? Not only did he have to constantly worry about his younger brother angering their master, he had to help him deal with many issues . If it wasn’t for the fact that he was his younger twin, he wouldn’t waste his energy on this idiot .
Finally, Qing Wu unwillingly prepared the carriage . Along the way, he pondered why his master suddenly changed his mind about his order to kill . His older brother should also be able to easily deal with that kid, so why was he stuck in a deadlock with him instead?
“Master, do you think that the man’s martial arts style and Young Miss Bai Xi’s resemble each other a bit?” From the 3rd move, he already discovered that this man’s martial arts style was very weird, completely different from this world’s4 martial arts . However, it was similar to Young Miss Bai Xi’s martial arts, which was why he considered it afterwards .
Feng Ming opened his eyes, and while the corners of his mouth were raised a little, his tone was still as cold as ever . “In the future, don’t be so weak . ”
Qing Yun was stunned . He stopped following after and he stared dumbly at his master . Was master smiling? His master seemed to be in a good mood this time? And what did he mean don’t be weak? Did master mean him? Or was it Young Miss Bai Xi? Or was it that man?

Feng Ming, who was walking in front, suddenly reached out and smoothed out the inky, high-bound hair, his eyes sparkling with a hidden smile .
Behind him, Qing Yun was shocked once again . Was he seeing things? Master just gently touched his hair . Was this real? Could his master just change back to his cold and aloof Ice Lord?
Suddenly, Feng Ming stopped walking and turned to stare at Qing Yun . Then, he continued to walk . Qing Yun was inwardly relieved and soon followed .
