Capítulo 1231: Chapter 837: Secrets

Wang Gui’s words hit Liu Hun’s sore spot, causing a cold light to flicker in Liu Hun’s eyes. With a slight movement, he was immediately in front of Wang Gui and grabbed Wang Gui’s neck with one hand.

“If I move my fingers just a bit now, you’ll have to meet King Yan!” Liu Hun said in a cold voice, looking at Wang Gui in front of him.

“Cough… you… you really aren’t much fun, but speaking like this is really uncomfortable. So, can you let me go so I can talk?” Wang Gui coughed lightly twice, his face somewhat flushed, but his eyes remained calm, without a trace of worry.

At this moment, Liu Hun looked deeply at Wang Gui and then slowly released his grip on Wang Gui’s neck, saying, “If you don’t give me a sufficient reason next, I won’t hesitate to finish you off immediately!”

“In that case, alright then, I’ll just tell you some things directly. First, if you kill me, this place will be leveled in less than a minute, no matter how strong you are, it won’t be of any use, because this place has already been targeted by the military with missiles, and I gave the order.” Wang Gui shrugged, explaining to Liu Hun with a carefree expression.

“Just that reason alone isn’t enough!” Just as Liu Hun was about to make a move, Wang Gui shook his head and continued, “If I wanted to act against you, I would’ve done it already. Even though you’re quite strong, if I wanted to kill you, there are many ways, and I wouldn’t need to make such threats. I’m just explaining the situation to you simply.”

After a pause, Wang Gui continued looking at Liu Hun and said, “Do you remember the things I told you before? Aside from those words, when you head to Beijing, I can help you not only rescue Miss Ling but also deal with them, including the Liu Family. With my help, your actions in Beijing will be much simpler and easier.”

“Why?” Liu Hun sneered, still not believing Wang Gui’s words.

Every time Liu Hun stood in front of Wang Gui, he felt as if all his secrets had been uncovered by the other party, which made Liu Hun uncomfortable.

“Because if you don’t believe, the only road awaiting you when you go to Beijing is a dead-end. Beijing is not Huaihai Province or Southeast Province, and I originally had no interest in this secret meeting at all. The main reason I came is because of you since there is a huge conspiracy involved here that I don’t like. So, I’m on the opposing faction. However, the other side’s power is terrifying, far beyond my ability to contend with, so I have to reluctantly obey their orders,” Wang Gui said regretfully.

“Do you really think I would believe your words?” At this moment, Liu Hun frowned and stared firmly at Wang Gui, saying in a deep voice.

If what Wang Gui said was true, his identity could indeed help Liu Hun greatly in Beijing, but Liu Hun certainly wouldn’t believe him so easily.

“If you don’t believe me, with your abilities, you can find many ways to control me. Of course, don’t use the method of turning me into a puppet, because if you do that, your troubles might be even greater, and mainly, I don’t want to die,” Wang Gui said with a smile.

Then he continued looking at Liu Hun, “From the moment this group appeared, I noticed, but unfortunately, my grandfather is extremely passionate about this issue. You know, my grandfather himself stands at the highest place in this country, and once he decides on something, what they want to accomplish becomes even easier. Originally, I had no interest in it, but they shouldn’t have killed Qingqing. The moment she died, I swore that as long as I’m alive, I will fight them forever. When I’m strong enough one day, I’ll kill every one of them—that’s my reason, so do you believe me now?”

At this moment, there was no longer a trace of a smile on Wang Gui’s face, only a look of anger and hatred, and Liu Hun could clearly feel the other party’s emotions.

This expression was definitely not something that could be feigned, which Liu Hun was almost certain of.

“Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, why do you think I can oppose them?” Liu Hun took a deep breath, pondered for a while, then continued mocking Wang Gui coldly.

“Just because you’re a member of the Liu Family and you possess the Bloodline Power that hasn’t appeared in the Liu Family for hundreds of years. Though you haven’t realized it yet, and the awakening of Liu Family’s bloodline requires a special method that even I don’t know, only the Family Head of the Liu Family in this world knows. Once your Bloodline Power awakens, with enough time, you’ll have no match in this world, because hidden within the Bloodline Power of the Liu Family is a tremendous secret. That’s why even after all you’ve done, the Liu Family and the powers above haven’t dealt with you! And if it wasn’t for an accident, I wouldn’t have known so much either.

Wang Gui’s eyes stared intensely at Liu Hun, his eyes also carrying a trace of enthusiasm.

“What secret?” Liu Hun narrowed his eyes slightly, instinctively asking Wang Gui.

“Immortality! Compared to this secret, everything else becomes insignificant. Do you understand everything now?” Wang Gui took a deep breath, finally looking at Liu Hun with a serious expression.

“If it’s really like you said, then perhaps your intention isn’t truly what you said before, that girl might just be your hatred. But the true reason might also be because of this?” Liu Hun looked at Wang Gui sarcastically.

But this time, Wang Gui shook his head at Liu Hun again, and then calmly said, “I have no great interest in immortality. I just want Qingqing to come back to life. Because in this legend, your Liu Family’s Bloodline Power, once awakened, not only reveals the secret of immortality but can also bring the dead back to life. That’s the purpose of my intention to help you.”

“What proof do you have to show that you’re not deceiving me with these words?” After some time, Liu Hun watched Wang Gui and asked coldly.

In this world, Liu Hun had long learned not to easily trust anyone, so even though Wang Gui’s words were enticing, Liu Hun still wasn’t ready to fully believe him.

“You should know your current situation; I don’t have any other reason to deceive you, as my identity determines everything. If I wanted to kill you, as I said before, there are many ways, after all, you are just one person, whereas I have this country’s backing, which you should be very clear about.” Wang Gui put away his previous trace of sorrow and said calmly to Liu Hun.

And without waiting for Liu Hun to speak, Wang Gui continued, “Moreover, you can choose not to believe my words, but you only need to go to Beijing, and I will help you, that’s already enough. We’re just taking what we need from each other, and now I’ll give you a suggestion: if you want to control the situation in Southeast Province sooner or want to expand your power, right now is the perfect opportunity. This is why I originally came to this meeting, because if it were someone else, it wouldn’t be of any use.”

Looking into Wang Gui’s serious eyes, this time, Liu Hun indeed felt a bit hesitant.

“What do you think I should do now?” Liu Hun asked.

“Regarding your ability to turn others into puppets, only I know about that. When this information was first submitted, it came into my hands, and everyone who knew about it has been dealt with by me. Otherwise, they would’ve never let you go just because of that particular ability. So now that you ask, my suggestion would be to turn them all into puppets. Of course, this matter will eventually be exposed, but before that, I have already arranged a scapegoat for you, and I believe my arrangement will satisfy you very much,” Wang Gui continued to say to Liu Hun.

“Oh? Then I’m curious to hear how you’ve arranged things?” At this moment, Liu Hun had raised his guard against Wang Gui, and since his rebirth, this opponent seemed the most difficult to deal with.

“The scapegoat is the teacher you met at Southeast University. When he had nowhere to go, I took him in, all in preparation for today.” Wang Gui said indifferently to Liu Hun.

Seemingly unworried about the matter, Wang Gui continued, “After Qian Zhongshu entered into cultivation, he disrupted some of your plans, whether in the City of Death or in Huaihai Province.”
