The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World
Chapter 166 - 166 - System Intervention

Aiden could see that the gray energy seemed to want to get out of those and be free. That's why, he tried to guide it as much as he possibly could.

However, even with his pores and pathways open, there was no energy that seemed to be flowing through his veins.

Wu Lan who was watching him struggle, couldn't help but have many questions pop up in her mind.

Li Feng was her husband and she had spent year after year close to him, if his Qi pathways were to be blocked, she would have noticed it already.

So, this meant that the man that she was right beside wasn't actually her husband, but an impostor.

However, she had no idea as to who that person might be, who could even do such a thing to him.

It was impossible that he had gotten defeated, he was the strongest.

Looking at him, she muttered in a dangerous tone.

"Who are you and where did you take my husband?"

Wu Lan needed to know whether the person with whom she had sex earlier was her husband or not, this was going to be necessary for her conscience or else she would feel broken.

She was the most loyal person that existed, so if she learned that she had cheated on her husband, she wouldn't be able to live with that burden.

Aiden, who was still concentrating on that gray energy from within himself didn't even hear her as all his attention was directed toward that energy.

Aiden didn't know what all those things were behind those chains, but he knew that gaining access to one of them wouldn't be a bad thing at all.

In fact, it would be great, as it seemed that all those things that were currently being restricted would be able to make him stronger at some point.

Aiden had no idea how those things had appeared there, but he wasn't complaining, as he knew that at one point he would be able to obtain them all.

Wu Lan who had just been ignored took things further as she hit Aiden with a lot of strength, this time making sure that he would feel it.

Aiden surprised, lost his connection with the gray energy as he looked behind him, not sure what was happening.

"What do you want?" asked Aiden, who was somewhat frustrated as he was this close to getting that gray energy out of his body.

"Who are you and where's my husband?" shouted Wu Lan, this time as she had never seen such a look in her husband's eyes.

'She figured it out? But how?' Aiden thought, unsure why she would realize now of all times.

The others who had begun flying away didn't understand what was happening as they watched the scene from the air, unsure as to what would happen next.

"That's right who even are you?" asked Li Yang who was the only one who descended from the sky, supporting Wu Lan.

Aiden, who heard this question had no idea what to reply, he was an impostor... what could he even say in the first place.

Should he say the truth?

That he came from another world and this was simply a pure coincidence.

Should he act like a dictator?

Because if he wanted, he could simply get rid of all of them with the strength that he currently possessed.

Aiden was currently debating inside his mind as he kept his mouth shut which frustrated the two people which were in front of him.

"First, your behavior, then your questions. How could I be so stupid, I knew there was something wrong with you recently," exclaimed Li Yang, expressing his confidence.

He seemed convinced that the person who was in front of him wasn't Li Feng at all. There were simply too many things that were weird about him.

'Well, I need their help to succeed in this trial, seems like I have no choice but to tell them the truth,' thought Aiden as he made his choice.

He thought that it was the right choice because he knew that he would need the support of the people here if he wanted to succeed in this trial.

He knew that it was going to be a shock for many of the people in front of him, but he still went with it as he couldn't think of any other solutions at the moment.

Then, as he opened his mouth and tried to tell them about the trial and the system, a beeping sound resounded inside his mind.

*BEEP*

[Unable to speak about the system.]

Aiden reading this thought it was a mistake as he once again opened his mouth to explain everything to them.

But, then, another beeping sound resounded in his mind.

*BEEP*

[Unable to speak about the system.]

"What is this bullshit?" shouted Aiden, out of nowhere, surprising everyone around him who became even more confused.

"Who are you?" repeated Wu Lan who started to almost cry as she remembered what she had done with this impostor.

She had given him everything, her body, her loyalty, she had even helped him in this war that was ahead of them.

But, then, as Aiden slowly started to give up, another beeping sound resounded in his mind for the third time in quick succession.

*BEEP*

[Trial Reset...]

[The people around will forget everything about what just happened.]

Aiden, who read this on his interface, was really confused.

The system that had restricted Aiden from talking to others was now helping him by erasing the memory of what just happened.

'How can it even do that?' thought Aiden as he couldn't even begin to understand how the system worked.

'It can even control my body,' thought Aiden, scared that the system could literally take over, and he wouldn't be able to do anything.

The more he thought about it, the more scared he was. He didn't know what would happen in the future, but he needed to make sure that the system wouldn't be able to control him too.

He didn't know if it was too late, but that didn't matter, he would try.
