Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 766: Chapter 599: Glory is My Life

So close!

Enveloped in a vast black witch robe, Xiangka Tianji’s entire body was fully covered, yet her sinister and ruthless eyes unwaveringly stared at the little child in front of her!

Compared to Xiangka Tianji’s stature, the little dumpling appeared so tiny!

At this moment, he just stood there stiffly, his chubby little face, where the sweat had just dried, was soaked again!

Struggling to swallow, the little dumpling looked uncertainly behind him, making sure the quilt behind him was tightly wrapped; his little heart slightly relaxed!

Under Xiangka Tianji’s intense gaze, like maggots boring into bones, the little dumpling hesitantly raised his tiny paws, his little face forced into a stiff smile, and he waved at her, chuckling awkwardly, “Hehe… what a coincidence, what a coincidence…”

How could it not be a coincidence? He was just trying to smuggle out this old devout woman’s prisoner when he was caught red-handed!

How tragic!

The little dumpling finally experienced the oppressive feeling his wife talked about, the desire to cry but unable to shed tears!

So painfully annoying! So painfully annoying!

He really just wanted to quietly do good deeds and be a quietly handsome little boy!

Hearing the little dumpling’s voice, Xiangka Tianji finally confirmed that everything before her eyes wasn’t an illusion!

This was her secret room, the door that had been opened from the inside was meant for imprisoning Wuchang Taitian! And at this moment, the one coming out from the secret room was the yellow-haired child she had been searching for fruitlessly for months!

Seeing the little dumpling, Xiangka Tianji instinctively felt a throbbing pain in her scalp!

That night, the scalp that was torn by the little dumpling, even after using all the hair growth medicine, her head was still patchy, not a single hair had grown, utterly hideous!

Meeting again the culprid who made her look like this, she felt more than just scalp pain, but also immense hatred!

Filled with hatred, Xiangka Tianji trembled all over with rage!

Seeing Xiangka Tianji ignoring him, the little dumpling innocently blinked his round, plump eyes, licked a small smiling face, and waved his hands, “That…I still have something to do, I’ll be going now! Wave wave… no need to see me out…”

Having finished his words, the little dumpling didn’t look at Xiangka Tianji anymore, turned around, quickly grabbed the quilt on the ground, pulled it up with all his strength, and dashed out!

Xiangka Tianji’s bedroom was the largest bed chamber in the entire Witch Gu Temple!

For months, the little dumpling had lurked and moved through this secret room countless times; this was the first time he had been caught red-handed, and now, he deeply despised how large this bed chamber was!

Run fast, run fast! He must not let Xiangka Tianji catch him!

Shouting in his heart, the little dumpling swung his short legs, not daring to stop at all!

Run out! Run out! If he could run out, he would be able to leave the Witch Gu Temple and find his mother! His mother would surely save the Old Handsome Guy inside the quilt!

He missed his mother so much!

His longing for his mother turned into boundless energy, and he fully exerted the skills he had been training on the Plum Blossom Piles every day; though he dragged the long quilt wrapped behind him, the little dumpling’s speed was not slow at all!

“Victory is right in front of us! The door! The door!”

Looking at the bed chamber door so close within reach, the little dumpling cheered himself on in his heart!

He could do it, even if he was caught, he would surely be able to take the Old Handsome Guy out!

“Bang!”

The forward momentum halted as the resistance from behind caused the little dumpling, due to inertia, to instinctively fall backward!

“Wow!”

The little dumpling exclaimed and thumped down on the quilt!

Inside the quilt was the Old Handsome Guy!

The little dumpling’s heart shuddered, and he hastily scrambled up; his paws frantically re-wrapped the messed-up quilt!

“Why are you so mean! Why did you make me fall! Old Devout Woman! Bad person! Bad person!”

Assured that the quilt was intact, the little dumpling who climbed back up immediately raised his little hand and pointed fiercely, accusing her!

Xiangka Tianji stood with one foot on the tail end of the quilt, her eyes as cold as the bitter winter, and finally spotting the anomaly, she pointed at the quilt, her voice as harsh and unpleasant as ever, “What is this?”

“It’s my luggage!” the little dumpling replied while trying to pull the quilt on the ground; unfortunately, Xiangka Tianji was stepping on it, and he couldn’t budge it!

Now, the little dumpling was truly anxious!

“Little beast, what’s inside this?” Capturing the little dumpling’s anxiety, Xiangka Tianji’s face darkened, but there was a hint of joy in her eyes!

She hadn’t forgotten where this little beast had come from!

The secret room! Her secret room!

She was still frantic from yesterday when the secret chamber was found empty, and the chains that had imprisoned Wuchang Taitian melted into molten iron!

She had imprisoned Wuchang Taitian for over twenty years, and he could not have possibly escaped without help from outsiders!

This little beast stirred chaos in her Witch Gu Temple, using medicines. It was reasonable to assume she had chemicals capable of corroding iron chains!

Moreover, the object wrapped in several layers of quilts did indeed resemble a human figure!

The person she was desperately seeking, mobilizing all the forces of the Witch Gu Temple to find, was right before her eyes!

How could this discovery not delight Xiangka Tianji!

“Little beast, whom are you calling? Old Devout Woman, let me tell you, you now only have two choices, let me go or let me pluck your hair again!” His little claws akimbo, the little meat bun noticed Xiangka Tianji observing the quilt and immediately felt a jolt, swiftly changing the subject to divert her attention, “Although my mother told me to respect the old and cherish the young, I don’t mind beating you up again since you are such a villain!”

“Haha!” Xiangka Tianji, watching the little figure before her, who was rubbing his fists and looking exceedingly pretentious, suddenly let out a series of hoarse, cold laughter. Her already gloomy face became even more sinister, “Boastful little beast, that night it was with the help of the Witch Gu Divine Soul that you managed to escape from my clutches. Today, under the bright sun, you evil creature, even if you share a connection with your vile mother and have a divine soul, without the night, she cannot use the God-Worshipping Technique again!”

As she spoke, Xiangka Tianji withdrew her foot from the end of the quilt, stepping over the quilt on the ground and advancing towards the little meat bun!

The pressure emanating from a formidable being unfolded unmistakably, directly enveloping the little meat bun!

This overwhelming might, almost tyrannical, made breathing difficult for the little meat bun, his internal organs felt as if they were grasped by a giant hand, causing agonizing pain!

Large beads of sweat slid down his little face; he raised his tiny claws to his chest, his tiny spine still ramrod straight!

His mother had said, a man, in the face of life and death, does not bow!

He was his mother’s precious son; he could not disgrace her!

This was his honor, honor was his life! Even though small, he would not bow!

In his sleeve, the last small medicine pouch fell into his hand. The little meat bun was waiting for this Old Demoness to come close to strike a fatal blow!

“Your mother cannot help you, nor can the King of Witch Gu, without reinforcements, I want to see on what basis you can escape from my hands again, you evil creature, come meet your fate!” Xiangka Tianji sneered, stretching out her black, nail-clad hands towards the little meat bun!

Her target was the tender neck of the little meat bun!

“Relying on me!”

A deep voice, hard to disguise its antiquity, echoed from beneath the ground.

Hearing this figure, Xiangka Tianji’s form instantly halted.

The thick quilt, lifted by a pale hand, revealed…

Wuchang Taitian slowly rose from the ground, his face pale, his lips bloodless, yet his eyes showed unprecedented determination!

Normally indifferent to worldly affairs, Xiangka Tianji was accustomed to the knowing look in her eyes, always cold and merciless!

“Master…” Stiffly turning her head, Xiangka Tianji looked at the face so close to hers, her eyes full of adoration and shock, “Affected by Bone-Dissolving Powder, how could you possibly stand… all for him! All because of him! You actually ignited your life force to drive your origin!”

As she spoke, her black nails, without hesitation, pointed towards the bewildered little figure!

The little meat bun, startled and uncertain, stared at the towering man before him!

His family’s Old Handsome Guy!

“Yaoyao, run!” Growing ever paler, Wuchang Taitian knew he could not hold on for much longer, urgently growled, and then charged at Xiangka Tianji!

“Master! You dare strike me! Even twenty years ago when I rebelled, you never raised your hand against me, yet today, you are willing to burn your life to duel me to death!” Xiangka Tianji, watching the hand attack her throat, lightly tapped her toes and swiftly retreated, muttering hurtfully.

“Old Handsome Guy, hurry! Follow me!” the little meat bun, seeing Wuchang Taitian barely managing to stand, anxiously stamped his foot.

“Yaoyao, go! I will trap her, preventing her from triggering the mechanism to seal the entire Witch Gu Temple! Yaoyao! My dear, run!” Blocking Xiangka Tianji’s path once more, Wuchang Taitian used all his strength to roar.

This was the Witch Gu Temple, formerly the Six Halls’ site!

No one knew better than him; inside this Bed Chamber there were three Dragon Breaking Stone switches!

He absolutely would not let Xiangka Tianji have the chance to press the switch before the little meat bun escaped!

“No! No! You’ll die here! You’ll die!” The little meat bun frantically shook his head, tears filling his large eyes!

“I won’t! I said I’d wait for your mother to come see me! Yaoyao, run fast! Puh!” Once again blocking Xiangka Tianji’s hand just about to touch the switch, Wuchang Taitian spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and looked at Xiangka Tianji, who was staring blankly at her own hand, a knowing bitter smile curling up at his lips, “Run! Even if she tortures me endlessly, she still wouldn’t let me die before her…”

Stunned, looking at her own hand that had wounded the man before her, Xiangka Tianji, hearing his words, lifted a sorrowful, bitter smile to her face, “Master… you really do know me well…”

She would not let him die before her!

How could she bear to let the man she had loved her entire life die before her!

That would make her lonely, her life uninteresting…

“But even if it means dying together, I will not let the bloodline of that vile woman Ruoshui survive in this world!”
