Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 791: Chapter 622: Desperate to Live but Unable to Die

”If you want to die, I’ll oblige—but don’t think you have what it takes to drag us down with you!” Gu Changsheng coldly shouted, the Inner Strength in the palm of his hand suddenly surging, tossing Xiangka Tianji far away in the blink of an eye.

She had already allowed Xiangka Tianji an opportunity due to her underestimation, nearly plunging herself and those around her into danger!

Once but never twice, she would not make the same mistake again!

Therefore, the moment she severed the iron ring, she was prepared!

Prepared in case Xiangka Tianji still hadn’t given up!

”Bang!”

Xiangka Tianji’s figure, like a kite with its string cut, was flung far away.

”Puh!”

After crashing onto the stone platform, Xiangka Tianji finally stabilized herself, and violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. Her blood-soaked figure fixated on Gu Changsheng with a fierce gaze.

Under her intense stare, Gu Changsheng appeared untroubled as he slowly picked up the Broken Ring from the ground, his lips curling slightly while the Inner Strength in his palm gathered bit by bit.

”Xiangka Tianji, with all your cards on the table, are you ready to meet your end?”

His seemingly casual inquiry followed his words as the Mystic Iron ring in his hand slowly turned to powder, extending directly down to the connected pillar...

The powder settled on the ground, instantly becoming nothing but dust.

The look in Xiangka Tianji’s eyes faded along with the falling powder, eventually turning lifeless!

”The heavens want to annihilate me, Xiangka Tianji, they want to annihilate the Xiangka Clan!”

Blood constantly flowed from her mouth as Xiangka Tianji let out a skyward howl, her voice bitterly piercing.

Just as Gu Changsheng said, with all her strategies exhausted, she, Xiangka Tianji, was out of options!

Even death was not of her own choosing, for she could clearly sense the overwhelming Inner Strength emanating from Gu Changsheng!

Such formidable power pinned her to the ground, rendering her incapable of moving!

In that moment, Xiangka Tianji’s heart was in utter despair!

Whereas Gu Changsheng’s heart boiled with rage!

The idea of mutual destruction was the utmost boring nonsense!

This Xiangka Tianji really had the tenacity of a centipede, not stiffening even at death, still trying to pull them into a collective grave in the end!

Such an act was simply intolerable!

No longer able to bear it, Gu Changsheng’s face darkened as he strode towards Xiangka Tianji on the ground, ”Because of your selfishness, my maternal clan was wiped out. I didn’t want to bother with you, but you kidnapped my son, forcing me all the way to the Southern Borderlands!”

”The vengeance for a destroyed clan, the hatred for threatening me with my son, and now further fueled by the imprisonment of my father, Xiangka Tianji, our enmity runs as deep as the sea, and death will not suffice to end it!” Gu Changsheng pressed on, closing in on Xiangka Tianji, ”You forced me to raise an army in the Southern Border, you caused the Central Plains to lose its former peace; all chaos arose from you!”

Holding Xiangka Tianji’s chin with one hand, Gu Changsheng’s eyebrows knitted tightly as he watched her face grow paler under the pressure of his grasp, ”It was you! It was you who forced me to leave my home, to traverse mountains and wade through foul waters, you caused me to stain my hands with blood, it was all you!”

Gu Changsheng’s voice was a near growl.

Since the moment she set foot in the Southern Borderlands, her life had been an endless cycle of slaughter!

In conquering cities, which one did not witness death?

Upon her hands and shoulders, how many lives has she taken? The number was so vast that even she couldn’t keep an accurate count!

Months of repression, the stench of blood lingering constantly at her nostrils!

Night after night filled with anxious dreams about her son and guilt towards countless lives lost by her hand!

Though not by her own volition, still, the people she had killed!

And all because of the woman before her!

She admitted her mistakes when she was wrong!

But the mastermind, she would absolutely not let go!

”Whimper...”

Gripped by the throat, Xiangka Tianji struggled to breathe, desperately flailing as her unfocused gaze settled fixedly behind Gu Changsheng...

That figure in dark clothing, tall and outstanding, just like twenty years ago, outshining the sun and moon in brilliance, captivating her heart so she couldn’t look away...

But now, she was about to die!

Die at the hands of that man’s daughter, while he simply stood aside, watching coldly!

”Master... Master...”

With all her remaining strength, Xiangka Tianji finally voiced the name ingrained in her heart.

Upon hearing this, Gu Taitian’s face flickered with a hint of reluctance.

Seeing this, the Little Bun immediately tugged at her Old Handsome Grandpa’s clothes, her little face solemn as she spoke, ”Old Handsome Grandpa, you can’t be soft-hearted. My mom said, showing mercy to an enemy is cruelty to oneself! This Old Devout Woman, she’s very very bad, have you forgotten the Poison she fed you, making you spit blood every day? Grandpa, listen to Little Bun, she kidnapped me, preventing me from seeing my mom, forcing my mom to kill so many to rescue me, my mom is really angry, really angry, she actually hates killing!”
