474 Strange Condition (Part 2)

Liu Sanniang stepped forward and stared at Xu Lin’s face. It was almost covered in black aura, and only a little bit of life was left.

Xu Yue said, “Young Master Xu’s illness was sudden and life-threatening. I didn’t sense any evil technique being cast on him. Is there anything unusual?”

It seemed like Xu Lin’s death was just a natural part of the cycle of life and death. His life force seemed to have been taken away. But perhaps he was just destined to die?

This was because if a person was destined to die, when the time came, even if he was young and healthy, he might suddenly be plagued by illness and die.

!!

Liu Sanniang looked at Xu Lin, not letting go of any abnormality. She was certain that Xu Lin’s parents were alive. Xu Lin’s life was given to him by his mother, but his father was taking away his life.

Madam Xu’s eyes reddened as she clenched her fists tightly. “Lin has always been weak, but he has never fallen so critically ill. Who exactly wants to harm my son? State Minister, Miss Liu, please save my son.”

Xu Lin reached out to hold Madam Xu’s hand and said weakly, “Mother, life and death are up to fate. Don’t be sad.”

He could feel that the power in his body was devouring him bit by bit, slowly pushing him towards death. He had been weak since he was young. It was all thanks to his identity as the son of Duke Xu that he was able to live until now. Of course, all of this could not have happened without his mother’s meticulous care.

Death was not that scary to him. He just didn’t want the people who loved him to be sad.

Xu Lin looked at Liu Sanniang and felt strangely calm.

Liu Sanniang retracted her gaze and looked at Madam Xu. “Young Master Xu’s face is showing signs of dying. The person who wants Young Master Xu’s life should be his father.”

Madam Xu widened her eyes. “That’s impossible. He’s been dead for twenty years. How could he take Lin’s life? Lin is his only bloodline. If he was still alive, he would do all he could to protect Lin.”

Xu Yue frowned and looked at Liu Sanniang suspiciously. “It’s been 20 years since Duke Xu passed away. Young Master Xu is Duke Xu’s only son. Miss Liu, what do you mean by this?”

Liu Sanniang looked at Xu Lin and said calmly, “Young Master Xu’s father is alive, and so is his mother.”

As soon as Liu Sanniang finished speaking. Madam Xu became furious. She pointed at Liu Sanniang with a trembling hand. “You, are you saying that I cheated on my husband?”

Everyone in the world knew that her husband, Duke Xu, had died 20 years ago. The only descendant he left behind was the child who was born nine months after his death. He was Duke Xu’s only son.

Xu Lin’s poor health was a sore spot for Madam Xu. She put in tremendous effort to personally take care of him since he was young and had pulled him back from death several times. This time, when he suddenly fell ill and was in danger of dying, Madam Xu almost broke down. If it wasn’t for the fact that she wanted to leave a descendant for Duke Xu, she wouldn’t have been able to hold on.

However, Liu Sanniang said that her son’s father was still alive. Wasn’t she implying that Xu Lin was not Duke Xu’s son and that she cheated on her husband?

How could she tolerate such humiliation?

Madam Xu was about to fly into rage. Liu Sanniang just looked at Madam Xu indifferently and said, “Young Master Xu wasn’t supposed to exist in the first place. Whether his father wants him to die or not, as long as you want him to live, he can live. Madam, you should know better than anyone how you saved your son from death every time.”

Madam Xu’s body trembled as she roared. “Get lost, get lost.”

Xu Yue frowned. He wanted to tell Liu Sanniang that there was something she shouldn’t say. Duke Xu had passed away many years ago and had made a lot of contributions to the dynasty when he was alive. Madam Xu had been a widow for twenty years and raised her only son meticulously. However, when he met Liu Sanniang’s calm gaze, he could not bring himself to say these words.

Xu Yue lowered his eyes. He didn’t know since when he started to believe in Liu Sanniang unconditionally.

Madam Xu was furious. Her eyes were bloodshot and she wanted to kill Liu Sanniang.

Xu Lin’s face was pale. He wanted to defend his mother, but he couldn’t say anything.

With a calm expression, Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan left quietly.

There was no color left on Xu Lin’s face. He started to cough violently again.

Madam Xu was burning with anxiety. “Lin, Lin, don’t scare me… That woman is talking nonsense. Don’t be angry. I’ve been loyal all my life. How could I have done anything to let your father down? Don’t worry, when you recover, I won’t let her off.”

Xu Lin choked and coughed until his face turned red. The more he wanted to speak, the more he coughed.

Xu Yue hurriedly went forward and injected a force into Xu Lin to ease his pain.

Xu Lin’s complexion gradually became normal.

Xu Yue retracted his hand.

Madam Xu heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, State Minister.”

Xu Yue frowned. “Young Master Xu’s condition is strange. Madam, you should find someone else to treat him.”

It was impossible for him to stay here forever to give Xu Lin power everytime he was on the verge of dying.

Madam Xu understood what Xu Yue meant. She wiped the corners of her eyes and said, “I know. I’m already very grateful that the State Minister could come.”

Xu Yue looked at Madam Xu. “Take care.”

Xu Yue had already turned around and was about to leave, but he seemed to have thought of something. He turned around to look at Madam Xu and said, “Madam, there are many evil techniques in the world that can deceive people. Miss Liu is a psychic. If you want to get to the bottom of it, she can help you. I won’t spread a word of the conversation. If I do, I’ll die a horrible death.”

Although what Liu Sanniang said was unbelievable, the world was in no shortage of unbelievable things.

He said what was on his mind. As for whether Madam Xu listened or not, it had nothing to do with him.

Madam Xu gritted her teeth. If not for the fact that she still had a trace of rationality left, she would have gone crazy.

The servants trembled in fear. None of them had expected to hear such a thing. They did not want to hear it either.

Madam Xu could not care about anything else. She knelt on the edge of the bed. Xu Lin was unconscious and his face was extremely pale. She reached out and touched her son’s cheek. “Lin, I will definitely think of a way to save you.”

She had only married one person in her life, and she would never allow anyone to slander her.

Xu Lin’s condition was life-threatening. Madam Xu instructed the servants to take good care of him before leaving the mansion. In the past, when Xu Lin was seriously ill, she would go to offer incense and pray to Buddha. As long as she sincerely offered incense, Xu Lin would slowly recover.
