Both of these two pronunciations are correct.It is difficult to tell u the difference between these two.But in general.."Xie"is more verbal and "Xue" is more written.

well, it doesn't matter which one you pronounce in daily life. Chinese people can understand. However, there is difference between two pronounciation. It depends on the phrases or sentence. For example, the phrase" 血液", xue is correct. you can't pronounce xie. The sentence "这是血", you should pronounce xie. Most phrase we should pronounce xue, such as " 流血不止,血腥,血肉模糊,血细胞,血迹。"
