Omnipotent Husband System

Chapter 120: Evil Begets War. (Bonus Chapter)

Hao Ren heard a scream from inside the room and pushed the door open as he yelled, "Lingshi!"

The sight inside the room was something he did not expect at all. Matthaeus was holding Han Lingshi's arm, while Maya Okudera was laying on the side and a puddle of blood was forming under her body.

Hao Ren's eyes turned red, he flicked his wrist, and a needle flew through the air and hit Matthaeus on the neck. The latter froze, and a look of struggle appeared on his face. Hao Ren dashed towards him as Han Lingshi broke away from the grip. Hao Ren delivered a vicious uppercut to the chin of his enemy and knocked him out cold.

He turned around and quickly looked at Han Lingshi as he asked, "Lingshi, are you okay? Did he hurt you?"

His voice was filled with concern and his face was the definition of anxiety and fear. His own complexion was pale, but he still prioritized Han Lingshi. The lady on the other side, woke up from her stupor and hurriedly asked, "Ren, how did you get here? Are you okay? Did you bring help with you?"

Hao Ren shook his head and pulled her in an embrace as he mumbled, "No, I am fine, everything is alright now. I handled those people. They cannot harm us now."

Xiao Mei said, "Boss, the people from the Yue Family are taking action. Shall I inform them?"

Hao Ren gave her the permission and Han Lingshi suddenly turned around and broke away from his embrace. She rushed over to check on Maya Okudera. She called, "Maya, Maya, open your eyes, can you hear me."

She turned to look at Hao Ren and said, "Ren, call an ambulance."

Tears were dripping down her face. Hao Ren frowned, and approached her as he asked, "What happened to her?"

Han Lingshi said, "This bastard shot her."

Hao Ren nodded and said, "Stay back, I will stop her bleeding first. Xiao Mei, call for an ambulance right away."

The AI replied, "I already did, the medical professionals are all being called over."

Hao Ren nodded, and took out a box of silver needles. He pretended to take it out from his pocket, just so that Han Lingshi does not ask him too many questions. He was not yet sure about it.

Han Lingshi was crying with her hand covering her mouth, she was afraid of disturbing Hao Ren, who was shivering but still treating Maya Okudera.

Hao Ren was not a cold blooded killer, every time he killed someone his body subconscious will blame him and the body will react like this. The young man tore open the shirt Maya Okudera wore and placed in seven acupuncture needles around the gunshot wound. The shot had probably hit a vital organ and thus the bleeding was this serious.

Hao Ren raised his head to look at Han Lingshi but his vision was turning blurry and dim. He was exhausted by all the action that may seem like infinity to him but was a few minutes only.

He raised his hand and said, "Lingshi."

Han Lingshi came to his side and the door of the cabin opened. The young lady raised her head and exclaimed, "Grandpa, please help him. I don't know what to do..."

That was the last scene Hao Ren remember. While he was willing to kill people to save the one special to him, he was also vulnerable to his acts.

...

Han Lingshi watched as the medics took away Maya Okudera, and her Grand father, Yue Chilong supported her. She leaned on his wide chest and asked, "Is Ren okay?"

The old man had grey hair on his head, but his vigor was stronger than that of the young. He nodded and said, "He is fine, he did good. He is just tired, I will take him home along with you. Do not worry."

Han Lingshi nodded at this moment, Hao Ren's phone rang. The lady picked it up and Xiao Mei's voice sounded, "Mistress, Boss wanted to deal with those terrorists on his own. Can you please see if something could be done in this regard?"

Han Lingshi frowned, but then she clenched her fists. These men came in her company, tortured her people, and almost killed one of her most trusted subordinate. Hao Ren was tired and exhausted because of them. As she recalled all those scenes her blood boiled and she said, "Grandpa, can we take these terrorists with us? I am sure Ren would want to deal with them himself."

She was sure that Hao Ren would kill them, but she did not mind, they deserved to die anyway. Yue Chilong was shocked, but they he nodded. He had been wanting to meet Hao Ren for a long time now. Yue Shenlong had praised this young man ever since he broke into their house and left without being noticed.

Han Tang also came over, with military officers in his tow. The officers saluted Yue Chilong and the old man said a few words to them. The people nodded and then helped them move the unconscious terrorists to the Yue Family mansion where they will be held prisoners in the dungeon until Hao Ren woke up.

...

Hao Ren found himself standing inside the darkness. He was confused, and had a retching sensation tickling at the back of his throat.

*Ding: It has been detected that the host has completed the quest to rescue his wife, he is awarded a new stat with seven points.

Comprehension: 7

On the path of cultivation, comprehension can make one with the shittiest talent grow into a monster who can make the heavens shiver in fear, while the most talented ones cannot even wipe their asses clean.*

Hao Ren sighed and said, "As much as I appreciate this award issuance, I would like it a lot if you could just wait for me to wake up."

*Ding: The system has placed your consciousness inside an isolated space. This place is called the battlefield. Here you will fight over and over using the maximum of your skills and pushing the limits until you can kill people without batting an eyelid. Today, you fought with a total of twelve people, but you almost passed out within fifteen minutes.

Mind you, this wasn't even high intensity combat, you played assassin with the help of your AI assistant. Despite the display of accurate decision and skills your performance barely managed to save your wife. Host, remember, your fates are linked with each other. Both of you cannot exist without the other. Thus, you will be spending some time here in order to step on the path of omnipotence.*

Hao Ren was aware of it all, his mind was filled with a lot of barriers from his previous life, and even in this life where he was raised as a good human. How could he just start killing people without batting an eyelid.

Just when he was thinking about what to do, he saw people charging at him with weapons. One of them was so close that Hao Ren could not even react and the person managed to cut his shoulder. The wound left a seething pain that caused chills run down his spine. Hao Ren began to fight to stay alive in the dark space.

...

Yue Chilong was standing before Han Lingshi who was looking at her entire family with a cold gaze at the moment. None of the people dared to look her in the eye. Han Lingshi spoke in a cold voice, "You all have hid many things from me, can you tell me what is going on here?"

Old Man Han raised his head and spoke in a soft tone, "We have our reasons to hide these things from you."

Han Lingshi looked at him with a cold look in her eyes, she said, "It is those reasons that I want to know, Old Master Han. My husband is laying in bed for twelve hours. Unconscious, and exhausted because he fought to save me from the biggest humiliation a woman can face.

Would you prefer to hid your reasons if you knew how that bastard wanted to hang me out of my own cabin, naked for the people to watch? Answer me!"

The last words were loud, and everyone else was surprised to look at him. They did not expect Han Lingshi to explode with such a temper. Gao Yue took a deep breath and said, "There are two reasons."

Han Lingshi looked at her and the old lady said, "We all lived in the spirit shimmer continent when your father was still young. However, despite the strength of our people, we could not face the forces who gathered and attacked us. Han Family, Gao Family, Xia Family and Yue Family were allies who stood beside each other. However, our success and wealth attracted lot of trouble from all the sides.

In dire straits, we had to leave our houses with all that we could carry. None of our people survived. We even lost our legacy to cultivate. To carry one in the world of mortals we hid our cultivation and resided like normal people. Your grandfather was injured in the escape and lost his skills completely.

When we all thought we can prepare the youngsters, the government formed the DEHB, those people went to any lengths possible to gain power and the low level cultivators became there slaves. We did not wish for you or your cousins to suffer from the fate of being controlled. The less you knew the better."

Han Lingshi smirked and said, "Grandma, I cannot believe you instantly now. If you all do not mind, I would like to have some time alone."

That said she left the living room. The older people sat in the room silently, the truth was simple and sounded stupid but it was all they could do at that time.

...

Hao Ren was fighting with hordes of people, his body was covered in wounds, and he was moving sluggishly but his eyes have lost emotion and moral. The pain that ran through his body because of all these wounds made him feel like he would really die. So, the spirit of survival kicked in and he began to fight.

Outside, Han Lingshi was again sitting beside him, holding his hand. She could not understand why Hao Ren has yet to wake up. The doctors and all checked his vitals and they all came back normal. After half an hour, Hao Ren suddenly sat in like a dead man possessed.

Han Lingshi screamed in fear, and Hao Ren turned to look at her. His blank eyes surprised her, and she softly called out to him, "Ren, love, are you okay?"

Her voice seemed to have some magical charm that called him back from the daze. Hao Ren smiled weakly and asked, "Lingshi, are you okay? I am sorry I was weak."

Han Lingshi lunged and hugged him in her warm embrace as she said, "No, my dear, you were stronger than anyone else. I love you, Hao Ren."

Hao Ren smiled and said, "I love you too."

Xiao Mei said, "Boss, I also helped you. Just because I am a program, you two do not love me? Discriminative!"

The couple was surprised, Xiao Mei reacted like a jealous human, but then they chuckled and talked to Xiao Mei for a bit. Han Lingshi then called a maid to bring some soup. She spoon fed Hao Ren.

The young man finished his meal and asked, "Where are those people?"

Han Lingshi hesitated but said, "In the dungeon."

Hao Ren nodded and said, "Shall we go over to take a look at them? I have a lot of accounts to settle with them, specially Matthaeus."

The lady was hesitating but Hao Ren gently grabbed her hand and said, "Your majesty, a wiseman said, Good begets Peace, while Evil begets war. From how I interpret this idiom, we should war against the evil and be good to bring peace."
