Chapter 983: Chapter 597: The Revelation
“Then let me thank you in advance, Uncle.” Liu Hun nodded and said.
“Liu Hun, what exactly is wrong with Little Ju’s illness? Why did she fall ill without any reason? We consulted many doctors at the time, and they all said there was no solution.” The head of the Xue Family didn’t dwell too much on this matter temporarily. His biggest concern was still Xue Ju’s condition.
Seeing that the head of the Xue Family finally addressed the crucial point, Liu Hun’s eyes couldn’t help but glance towards Xue Lan’s second uncle.
Since Xue Ju was cured until now, he had barely spoken a word, and his expression also seemed somewhat gloomy.
“I don’t know who your Xue Family offended back in the day that led to a Bloodline Curse, but regarding Xue Ju’s illness this time, someone did it on purpose.” Liu Hun looked at the head of the Xue Family and spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, the head of the Xue Family’s eyes slightly narrowed. Only the members of their Xue Family knew about the Bloodline Curse, which was never disclosed to outsiders. Otherwise, if this matter were to get out, it would be a fatal blow to their family.
But now Liu Hun had revealed the Bloodline Curse of the Xue Family with just a word, naturally making the head of the Xue Family anxious.
“How do you know about the Bloodline Curse in our Xue Family?” the head of the Xue Family asked Liu Hun about this matter instead of inquiring about who exactly framed Xue Ju.
“Uncle, don’t forget, I am a doctor, and regarding this matter, I promise not to speak of it. After all, I am also part of the Xue Family now, and speaking out would bring me no benefit,” Liu Hun had already guessed the head of the Xue Family would display such an expression, so he wasn’t overly worried.
These words from Liu Hun slightly relieved the head of the Xue Family. Indeed, even if Liu Hun knew about this matter, talking about it wouldn’t bring him any benefits.
“Brother, regarding this matter, it has always been a taboo in our Xue Family, and we cannot take any risks. Otherwise, if some people find out, our Xue Family would be in grave danger,” at this moment, Xue Lan’s second uncle suddenly stepped forward, speaking coldly to the head of the Xue Family while staring at Liu Hun.
For this, the head of the Xue Family found himself in hesitation. Though Liu Hun and Xue Lan had a physical relationship, it was akin to a transaction. The head of the Xue Family was well aware of this. If Liu Hun didn’t know about this matter, he would be pleased, as pulling in someone with potential like Liu Hun was undoubtedly a great boon for the Xue Family.
All the descendants of the Xue Family were conceived through IVF, except for Xue Ju, which was why the head of the Xue Family cared so much for Xue Ju.
And he still had a few years left. If, by the time he departed from this world, this news spread, their Xue Family would truly be in danger.
This risk, the head of the Xue Family dared not take lightly, so he was extremely hesitant at this moment.
“Uncle, I think it won’t be too late to consider this matter later. Don’t you want to know who poisoned Little Ju?” Liu Hun could see the head of the Xue Family’s considerations and asked with some composure.
“Poison? Liu Hun, what do you mean?” The head of the Xue Family couldn’t help but show some coldness in his eyes when Liu Hun brought up the matter again.
Originally, he was puzzled. Although Xue Ju had been frail since childhood, it shouldn’t have led to such a sudden, unrelenting illness, especially one with such peculiar symptoms. Liu Hun’s words now made him gradually realize that this matter might not be as simple as he had thought.
“Brother, no matter where this kid comes from, since he knows our Xue Family’s secret, we can’t let him remain. Otherwise, our Xue Family might face destruction!” At this time, Xue Lan’s second uncle spoke with some chill, stepping towards Liu Hun and saying to the head of the Xue Family, “Brother, I’ll take care of this kid first to prevent future troubles!”
With the last words from Xue Lan’s second uncle, his figure flashed to Liu Hun’s front, bringing forth a terrifying power as he aimed a harsh strike towards Liu Hun’s face.
Feeling the gusts of wind mixed in the strike, a few cold hints of anger flashed in Liu Hun’s eyes. This guy was truly overstepping; treating him like mud to be molded.
The power within him surged instantly, and within a split second, a terrifying aura emanated from Liu Hun, sweeping towards all directions.
As everyone watched in shock, Liu Hun’s seemingly soft and weak hands slowly lifted, met with full disdain in Xue Lan’s second uncle’s eyes.
In his view, Liu Hun was all thunder and no rain. Despite whatever cultivation Liu Hun had, no matter how terrifying his aura was, in the end, he would still die by his hands.
However, the next moment, just as his palm was about to land in front of Liu Hun’s face, his expression turned extremely grim.
At this moment, his hand was no more than five centimeters from Liu Hun’s face, but despite his utmost effort, he couldn’t bring it any closer.
“I, Liu Hun, have always been one to mind my own business, and Second Uncle is so eager to kill me. Is it a guilty conscience?” Liu Hun looked at the second uncle, whose face had turned somewhat pale, with a hint of contempt.
