Chapter 30 The Secret of the Extraordinary
prior to.
If Xue Wu's incident had happened first, and Hu Long had only been discharged from the hospital after Xue Wu's death, he might have thought that Xue Wu had done it in secret.
However, in this situation, the order of events doesn't seem to make sense.
As for whether Hu Long had gone to kill the other party, he hadn't considered that.
Upon hearing what Hu Chengwen said.
A hint of doubt flashed across Hu Long's face.
"What does it mean if an evil spirit casts a curse?"
As he spoke, a slight thought stirred within him.
In fact, Hu Long had already had some doubts about this before.
Given the original owner's family circumstances, even if they were unaware of the existence of extraordinary beings.
It is not necessary to send the original body to Chenguang Mental Hospital.
It's entirely possible to hire a private medical team to take care of the original body.
Looking at it now...
Hu Chengwen did not disbelieve.
It is highly likely that they have already reached this conclusion through that mysterious family.
He Yanling chose this method because she was worried that what he had would affect Hu Zhao.
He was not the original owner of this body, and he didn't offer much comment on this practice that amounted to abandonment.
After all, he was the beneficiary. If the original owner hadn't died, it's uncertain whether he could have taken over this body and escaped that vegetative state.
These are secondary.
What intrigued him was something else entirely.
Hearing what the other party said, it is highly likely that this member of the family is involved in extraordinary powers.
Even something like this can't solve its own problems?
That family is far too weak.
After all, Xue Wu's family was not much different from ordinary people.
With his strength, he could easily resolve the situation even under a surprise attack.
"You're an adult now, and you've grown a lot. There are some things you should know."
Hu Chengwen leaned back in his chair, his hands folded together.
This is also why he called Hu Long here today.
His observations over this period, coupled with his son's behavior today, have significantly changed his opinion of him.
It's time to say some things. After all, this secret can't be kept from him forever.
"This world is not as simple as it appears on the surface."
There are some things among them that cannot be explained by common sense... such as evil spirits.
Hu Chengwen paused, seemingly considering his words.
"As I understand it, it's similar to a ghost. However, people on my family's side are more used to calling it 'strange spirits,' but I'm not entirely sure why."
"Besides these, there are some people who possess powers that are unimaginable to ordinary people..."
"Is it a superpower? Magic?" Hu Long asked.
"That's a general understanding, but there are some differences."
I only overheard a few words about these things from my family members.
All they knew was that ordinary people were like ants in their presence, almost powerless to resist, unless surrounded and killed with firearms.
Hu Chengwen shook his head.
"Some of them can even withstand bullets. They have another name—secret warriors."
"Secret Warriors..." Hu Long repeated in a low voice.
A sense of excitement rose within me.
At this moment, he finally touched upon the extraordinary corner of this world hidden beneath its ordinary appearance.
"That's right, our Hu family is composed of secret martial artists."
You can think of them as people with greater strength, speed, and resilience; their physical abilities far exceed those of ordinary people.
"Although this existence is powerful, it is still within the realm of comprehension."
Hu Chengwen's tone turned serious.
"As for the problems you had before, according to our family's judgment, if they were really strange spirits or curses... then they already belong to the category of metaphysics."
Even the most skilled martial artists were helpless.
"Is there really nothing even our own family can do?"
Hu Long's eyes flickered slightly.
"As far as I know, that is indeed the case. Perhaps there are more powerful martial artists who have a way, but that is beyond my reach."
Hu Chengwen shook his head.
Although he was relatively wealthy, the secret martial artist was never short of money.
The stronger one is, the more this is true; power and money are merely the easiest things for these people to obtain, and are byproducts.
What they care about is something much rarer, something that can enhance their power.
That's all.
Thinking that Hu Long was worried about himself, he added in a low voice.
"However, you don't need to worry too much. It seems that your problem doesn't fall into that category. If it were really an evil spirit or someone had cursed you, you wouldn't be able to recover and be discharged from the hospital."
Upon hearing this, Hu Long remained noncommittal.
His gaze shifted to the window beside him.
In the mirror, a dark, emerald-green shadow, visible only to him, stood silently behind him, its long hair flowing freely, emanating a deathly, icy aura, standing there motionless.
Compared to before, the other person was still facing away from him, but, perhaps it was just his imagination, as time went by, the other person seemed to get closer to him.
The instant eye contact.
His body tensed up, and he sensed that the temperature in the entire room had dropped considerably.
To avoid attracting attention, he only glanced at it briefly before looking away.
Then, as if remembering something, he continued to ask.
"...Does becoming a Secret Warrior grant immunity to this situation?"
Hu Chengwen shook his head.
"...I'm not quite sure about that either. Although those people share the same surname as us, Hu, they are essentially a different kind of being."
They don't care about the lives of us collateral branches, and besides... you don't have the aptitude for cultivation.
A bitter smile appeared on his face.
"If it weren't for my relatively high status in the collateral branch, I wouldn't have been able to get even the main branch to help, even if I had spent a lot of money."
That's how it is. I hope you don't blame me.
Hu Long also remained silent for a moment.
Then, he calmly spoke in the manner of the original owner of the body.
"Even if I knew beforehand, I would still choose to do it this way."
"You've really grown up!"
Hu Chengwen's expression relaxed slightly, and he seemed somewhat relieved.
"I thought Sun Yi was a good match, but it seems I was wrong."
What I said to you before was indeed a bit harsh, please don't take it to heart.
If it's not a good fit, there's no need to force it.
With our family's resources, you can find anyone you like, as long as they're over eighteen.
Hu Long remained silent.
"I'd better not. I'm not in a rush right now, and my body hasn't fully recovered yet. Dating would be bad for my health."
In the other party's eyes, the purpose of arranging for him to be with Sun Yi was to have him have offspring.
But this point doesn't need to be explicitly stated.
"Alright, I won't force you. Just go after whoever you like. After all, this family business will eventually be yours."
Hu Chengwen did not insist.
Because he discovered that his son was more independent than before and had his own ideas.
Then.
The two chatted for a while longer.
The atmosphere was very harmonious.
Hu Long also took the opportunity to inquire about the Secret Warriors and the Ancestral Sacrifice.
Although the other party didn't know much, Hu Long still benefited greatly from it.
Hu Chengwen simply assumed that Hu Long's question stemmed from curiosity.
But that's normal; everyone yearns for the extraordinary.
Unfortunately, not everyone is qualified to walk this path.
