Chapter 250: Chapter 250 Zhongdu Massive Quake (1st Update)
The hall was dead silent.
Looking at the blood and bones that covered the ground, everyone was shivering.
No one had thought Xue An would really dare to annihilate the Liu Family.
And Xue An merely glanced coldly at those who remained before turning away to leave.
As he walked out, Cheng Hao and others followed him.
Only when Xue An’s figure was no longer visible did those present breathe a sigh of relief, as many had wet themselves, and a strong odor of urine filled the banquet hall.
But at that moment, nobody had the time to mock those who had been scared into wetting themselves, for they were all busy informing their respective families.
So, in less than an hour,
the news of Xue An lifting a hand to wipe out the Liu Family spread throughout Zhongdu.
At the time when he heard this news, Chen Xiuhe was admiring his few whiskers in the mirror.
Having been rejuvenated by the Heaven’s Fate Elixir, Chen Xiuhe’s illness had not only been cured, but he had also grown much younger.
It was during this moment that the Chen Family’s steward hastened in.
“Old Master, something terrible has happened!”
“What’s the matter, running in here all flustered?”
“Mr. Xue is back!”
“What?” Chen Xiuhe was overjoyed, “I knew Mr. Xue would be fine, hahaha, where is he? I’ll go see him!”
“But Mr. Xue just returned to Zhongdu and eradicated the Liu Family!”
“If he has eradicated them, he has eradicated… What did you say?” Chen Xiuhe was shocked, “Which Liu Family?”
“Of course, the Liu Family in Zhongdu!”
Chen Xiuhe’s complexion changed drastically, “Are you sure it’s true?”
“Of course, it’s true, it’s already gone viral outside. I heard that many noble families are preparing to join forces to take down Mr. Xue!”
After hearing the steward’s words, Chen Xiuhe’s face darkened.
“Damn it, those guys have been eyeing the sales of the Heaven’s Fate Elixir with envy. They also want to make a fuss about the Liu Family’s annihilation to gain some benefits!”
Chen Xiuhe, with his sharp insight, immediately saw through the crux of the matter.
The Liu Family had substantial influence in Zhongdu and reportedly also had high-level connections within the military.
But now that the entire family had been killed, even their formidable power had dissipated like smoke.
Thus, these noble families simply wished to use the pretext of seeking justice for the Liu Family to pressure Xue An with public opinion and the momentum of the majority.
Thinking this, Chen Xiuhe’s face showed a trace of cold laughter.
Those noble families, so accustomed to scheming and living like parasites, did not understand that Xue An was not someone who could be coerced by anyone.
“Old Master, what should we do?” the steward asked.
Chen Xiuhe paced back and forth in the room for a few steps, then spoke in a deep voice, “We will observe and see how things unfold. If necessary, the Chen Family will stand as Mr. Xue’s stalwart supporter!”
“Yes!”
When Chen Rushi learned of the news, she was at the Wei Family’s place, having a heart-to-heart with Wei Ruyan and Wei Rulan, the sisters.
Upon hearing the message.
“What!” The three women were all shocked.
Chen Rushi was especially horrified, as restless as an ant on a hot pan!
Both Wei Ruyan and Wei Rulan had faces full of shock.
“Ru Shi, first calm down. This matter is no small affair. You better go back and ask for Old Master Chen’s opinion!” Wei Rulan said in a grave voice.
“Right! I’ll take my leave now!” Chen Rushi said and then hurried off.
