Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1153: Chapter 822: I Am the Master of My Fate!

”So when you walked over, you kept sniffing?” Beauty Sai asked amusedly.

”Yeah! I need to take a few extra sniffs! What if I get hurt or poisoned, huh? I don’t want to croak! Humph!” The little bun puffed up his little neck, looking very proud.

The survivors all laughed at his proud little face.

”You! Truly worthy of being the Southern Emperor’s son, such a small evildoer, brave and bold yet carefully cautious!” Beauty Sai’s pale face looked a bit better, and she gazed at the little bun with admiration, ”If the child in my belly is half as smart as you in the future, I would be very satisfied!”

”Aunt Xi Shi, your baby must be smart too! You used to be so beautiful, your baby will definitely be pretty too!” The little bun’s words were sweet as honey, and he spoke with a smile.

”Then I’ll take your good words! Hehe...” Beauty Sai weakly leaned against Guo Luo, laughing.

The little bun craned his neck and slyly moved a bit closer to where Beauty Sai was standing, blinking his big eyes and said, ”Aunt Xi Shi, if you have a baby girl as pretty as you, give her to me! I already have a big wife, but she doesn’t like me. Give your baby girl to me to be my little wife...”

Beauty Sai and the Father and Son of the Guo Family were stunned by his words but burst into laughter soon after.

”You! Why do you get jealous whenever you see someone good-looking? Aunt Xi Shi’s baby hasn’t even been born yet, and you’re already plotting to take her daughter. How did I give birth to such a little rogue son!” Gu Changsheng said amusedly as he tapped the little bun’s forehead, looking at him with affection.

”It was mom who said to collect beauties, beauties! Humph!” The little bun pouted innocently, looking dumb and cute.

”Haha...”

”Haha...”

”...”

Laughter erupted all around.

”You! You’re spoiling him!” Zhou Mu said helplessly, reaching out to take the little bun from Gu Changsheng, his deep black eyes full of warning as he stared at the little woman before him, ”You can’t fill his head with such nonsense anymore!”

”Okay, okay!” Gu Changsheng nodded rapidly, blinking her long lashes, exchanging a glance with her son.

This kid always puts the blame on her!

Doesn’t he see the evildoer right here? Does he have to get caught every time?

She likes beauties, whether man or woman, so what? Is she wrong?

Confucius said: Food and love are part of human nature! She’s following the sage’s teachings, isn’t she?

They all lack insight! Humph!

”Young Master, you’re really too smart!” Little Han Mo with the Black Face stood aside, sparing no praise with his few words.

The little bun basked in the compliment, giggling so wide you could see his teeth but not his eyes, lying on Zhou Mu’s shoulder, proudly raising his little head.

”They say family heritage runs deep, and now it seems true. The Southern Emperor’s son, though small, is so clever beyond others. With some time, surely he’ll be a remarkable person like a dragon among men!” Guo Luo stroked his beard with a pleased expression, ”Raw Jade! This is truly a piece of Raw Jade! With a little refinement, Young Master will surely grow into a peerless hero! Haha...”

Praised by an elder, the little bun suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, smoothing out his pride, he chuckled modestly! Chuckled modestly...

”Hehe... Haha... Haha...”

Gu Changsheng glared at her own son, who was being coy, and rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Elder Guo, laughing, ”Elder Guo, stop praising him! If you keep going, his little tail will wag up to the sky! Elder Guo, apply this medicine to Beauty Sai’s wound first...”

As Gu Changsheng spoke, she took out a small medicine bottle from her sleeve and handed it over.

Elder Guo reached out with both hands, bowing solemnly to accept it, sincerely thanking, ”Thank you, Southern Emperor!”

”You have been burdened by us today, truly we should be apologizing to you, how can we deserve your thanks!” Gu Changsheng shook her head, gesturing to Elder Guo to apply the medicine for Beauty Sai; she herself was still contaminated by poison and could not approach the pregnant Beauty Sai.

Elder Guo complied and returned to Beauty Sai’s side, uncapping the medicine bottle, sprinkling the powder on the wound on Beauty Sai’s neck.

Thankfully the wound was not deep, only some Blood Bead seeped out, much less than the fright she endured.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng turned around and stepped forward, facing Yu Shu, who had been forgotten by everyone, looking at her wide, unwilling eyes, a sharp curve formed at the corner of her mouth, she coldly snorted, ”I said long ago, today, you will not escape death! You dared try to take my son hostage, then even a hundred deaths couldn’t forgive you!”

Yu Shu lay on the ground, hearing these words, let out two guttural sounds as more foam escaped her mouth, faintly tinged with blood. She stared defiantly, her facial muscles contorted with extreme viciousness, unable even to turn her eyes to look at Gu Changsheng. The sounds kept escaping her mouth, blood mixed with foam kept gushing out.

Gu Changsheng, with heartfelt goodwill, bent down directly facing Yu Shu’s face so she could see him. His bright face, with the dazzling color of Holy Gold between his brows, his lips curled in a mocking and disdainful smile, laughed softly, ”How does the taste of Wooden Poppy suit you? This poison is incurable once it touches blood; it will corrode your five organs and six bowels, let you taste the utmost pain of the world, and eventually become nothing but an empty shell corpse...”

”Do you think yourself a master, that I am helpless against you? Yu Shu, I treasure every life, but if someone recklessly seeks to confront me, then do not blame my ruthlessness. I can heal and save, surely I can kill with poison and make it unseen! I do not care who sent you, nor what kind of deceitful web your master has spread for me; I only know that anyone who offends me, I shall kill one if I see one, two if I see a pair!”

”I can love the world, and I can stand aside from the slaughter of the winds and clouds; this is me! I have never been someone to be threatened or manipulated! Didn’t you curse me to fall into Avici Hell? Alas, such scenes are never for your eyes! Whether I am a fleeting bloom or remain eternally in history, my fate will only be in my own hands, never determined by clowns like you and your master!”

As Gu Changsheng spoke, he flicked his sleeve and disdainfully stood up, ”Thus, Avici Hell awaits you. Savor this ultimate earthly pain well, and then wait for your master there. When your master leaps out, I will surely send him to reunite with you beneath!”

Whatever spirits and monsters, since they mean to deal with her, would sooner or later reveal themselves. Enemies lurk in shadows, she in light; rather than fretting aimlessly, exhausting herself seeking them, she may as well wait for the hidden foes to come forth voluntarily!

That person merely grasping her weak spot, yet presumptuously believes he can manage the entire situation, keeping her trapped in his palm. It’s sheer delusion!

She only needs to make minimal arrangements, being prepared in advance, to sit back and watch that person impetuously jump out!

”And also, your Brother Ao, is waiting for you below! You can go down and reunite with him!” Quietly holding the little meat bun standing by the side, Zhou Mu suddenly stepped forward, speaking in a deep voice, his profound eyes fixed unblinkingly on the dying Yu Shu on the ground.

Hearing the words, Yu Shu’s eyes suddenly threatened to burst, her face twisted even more hideously.

The little meat bun was frightened, burying his head in Zhou Mu’s shoulder hollow, lifting his two little paws to cover his face, not daring to look.

Gu Changsheng, hearing Zhou Mu’s words, was also startled, involuntarily tilting his head to look at Zhou Mu, his face full of puzzlement.

Truth be told, her Jade Tree of Qiong Branch resembling an Exiled Immortal evildoer never had such wicked humor. Knowing Yu Shu was about to die, still choosing to hit her while she’s down, his usual temperament would likely have been to not even spare a glance and leave directly.

Yet, he uttered something like this!

This is very abnormal!

Gu Changsheng twitched her nose, her face full of confusion.

Zhou Mu stepped forward again, standing beside Yu Shu, looking at her, speaking in a deep voice, ”Last night we battled wolves, the scene was quite magnificent, ground covered with wolf corpses, severed limbs, broken arms, blood flowing like rivers, everywhere a bloody mess, a miserable sight, not a single wolf left whole...”

”Uh...ah...”

As Zhou Mu spoke, Yu Shu’s face became increasingly distorted, her eyeballs seeming to protrude from their sockets, ferociously making one’s heart tremble, with the sound of groaning from her mouth, more blood spilled forth, staining the ground, accentuating her ever more gruesome visage, like a Fierce Ghost...

”What are you saying all this for?” Gu Changsheng opened her mouth, finally voicing the confusion in her heart.

Gee, her evildoer had nothing better to do? Actually describing the tragic state of last night’s wolf pack slaughter!

Not concerned about causing their little meat bun to recall last night’s events, once more feeling heartache!

Zhou Mu cast a deep gaze at Gu Changsheng, without answering, turned back to Yu Shu, speaking again, ”There are rumors that a person’s soul lingers for seven days after death, hovering by the corpse unable to depart. Tell me, should I take even more absolute action?”

On the ground, Yu Shu’s figure stiffened, her originally trembling chest also ceased trembling, staring at the light and shadow cast above...

Zhou Mu’s back was straight and his face slightly lowered, gazing down condescendingly at the person on the ground, continuing to speak in a deep voice, ”Should I summon the Maoshan Taoist Priest here, have them conduct a rite on that official road, summoning those Lost Souls that haven’t departed, thus preventing you and your Brother Ao from ever being reunited? Isn’t this method quite effective? Hm?”

Gu Changsheng pursed her lips, her face full of incomprehension, looking at the evildoer within arm’s reach, her mouth twitching continuously.

Geez!

What on earth are they talking about?

Why doesn’t she understand what they’re saying?

When did her evildoer start believing in the stuff from those Maoshan Taoist Priests?

Even talking about performing a rite!

The official road is littered with wolf corpses; performing a rite capturing wolf Lost Souls, what’s the use?

Suddenly, Gu Changsheng seemed to think of something, her twitching mouth stiffened...
