Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1208: Chapter 874: If You Want to Destroy Xunyang, You’ll Have to Kill Me First!

The Medical Immortal Old Man spoke, his face darkening slightly. His aged eyes, filled with profound meaning, gazed in the direction of the alley where a fleeting shadow had just appeared, despite the layers of walls between them...

Zhou Mu couldn’t sense the aura of that person from before because he hadn’t taken that step forward, but the old man truly felt it!

Not only did he sense it, but he also heard clearly the words spoken by that person and his beloved disciple!

Upon hearing the Medical Immortal Old Man’s words, Zhou Mu’s face became even darker, ”Senior, what do you mean by this?”

What does it mean to drag someone down with you when you’re dying? How could his woman be used by anyone?

At this moment, a deep sense of frustration welled up in Zhou Mu. Gu Changsheng had always been willful but had never used Manman’s power to suppress him. Yet now, she was willing to use Manman to keep him from being with her!

She was truly angry!

Had she decided that failure was not an option, even if it meant sacrificing herself?

Zhou Mu’s heart suddenly started pounding rapidly, and an ominous feeling grew stronger!

When he was about to risk everything to break through the seal inside him, he realized it was all in vain. He couldn’t do anything but watch helplessly!

”Stop wasting your effort. That arrogant and rude human, Gu Changsheng, had to humble herself to ask for my help. I won’t let you escape my grasp!” Manman’s posterior settled firmly on Zhou Mu’s foot, its two insect claws holding his ankle unwaveringly while its insect face twitched as it spoke reluctantly.

Isn’t it at least an Insect God? How could this insignificant human dare to stir up trouble in front of it?

Truly underestimating its divine status!

How could it allow this?

It was time to prove the existence of its divinity!

Tighten! Hold fast! I must not let go! I must not lose face as a god!

”Senior, she’s genuinely angry, disregarding everything. Save her! Save her!” Zhou Mu, in his entire life, had never been so helpless, placing his hope squarely on the Medical Immortal Old Man, who seemed indifferent to the situation!

”Uh...” The Medical Immortal Old Man hesitated slightly as if sensing something...

”Bang!”

”Bang!”

”Bang!”

”...”

As the two people and the insect in the courtyard were embroiled in this predicament, a series of explosions came from the Guo family’s front yard. In an instant, rows of houses in the Guo family’s front yard were reduced to dust, exploding and collapsing...

Accompanying them, the back yard they were in also trembled violently!

”You thief! If I cannot protect Xunyang City today, I will be buried with you underground, forever in hell! Give me your life!”

From below, Gu Changsheng’s furious and urgent voice roared, followed by another series of explosive sounds...

Even wine jars were hurled high from the collapsing pits, burning and exploding in mid-air...

”Bang!”

The scene, as mysterious shadows had described, resembled fireworks...

Yet fireworks, originally used in festivals to celebrate and bring cheer, symbolizing good fortune and beauty, now represented destruction and annihilation...

To destroy Xunyang City and see it sink, collapse, and perish amidst these fireworks...

”No!”

Seeing this, Zhou Mu’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets!

No one understood better than he the destructive power contained in the explosion nearby. If not for him and Manman suppressing it, the courtyard housing Beauty Sai would have collapsed too!

Natural disasters and man-made calamities!

Beyond human reach!

This is a man-made disaster!

”Alas! They really mean it! Not afraid of death!” The Medical Immortal Old Man, upon seeing this, became anxious. His white hair and beard flared up, and with a light step, his whole aged body transformed into a gust of wind, like a Gale, flying towards a collapsing building...

Crumbled walls, broken partitions, debris, dust...

None of it could hinder the actions of the Medical Immortal Old Man. In front of him, it was as if they didn’t exist, swiftly turning into light and shadow...

”Where did this clown come from, daring to harm my disciple right before me! Give me your life!”

Passed through the ground and into the Medical Immortal Old Man’s view was a chaotic wine cellar, filled with the burning scent of alcohol, and occasionally some scattered wine jars exploded, flying into the air, shattering on the ground, causing a wave of dust and collapse!

The Medicine Immortal Old Man’s rarely stern face was full of seriousness, with sharp eyes, probing deep into the dim underground wine cellar...

With his Kung Fu, even in a pitch-black night where one couldn’t see their hand, he could quickly lock onto a target, let alone in an underground wine cellar illuminated by the burning liquor fire?

Soon, the Medicine Immortal Old Man saw, in the dark center of the wine urns ahead, a red and black figure entwined together...

All around, countless wine storages stood tall, it was hard to tell which family’s wine cellar was underground, but as long as there was liquor, there was danger! Now this vast storage of wine had not yet been ignited, but even so, the ground had already been affected!

”To destroy Xunyang City right before my eyes — not unless I’m dead!” Gu Changsheng’s moves were fierce and relentless, holding a scalpel in one hand and a crimson Chonghua Dagger in the other, striking directly for the Person in Black’s life!

This person was the first formidable enemy Gu Changsheng encountered after arriving in this timeline!

The moves were unpredictable; the martial arts skills were unfathomable!

Gu Changsheng must admit, she was very self-aware. The shadow that appeared in the alley had already given her a deep sense of crisis, and now this person before her, according to that person’s words, was just a subordinate yet already felt as formidable as a dread enemy, so what about that person?

At this moment, Gu Changsheng’s heart sank even further!

She suddenly realized she had underestimated the hidden mastermind!

”Damn it, this is simply inhuman!”

The Person in Black held a fire starter in one hand and a short dagger in the other. Clearly, this too, was a mastery of defeating the enemy and taking lives!

The two engaged in a fight, and in the blink of an eye, had exchanged dozens of moves, yet still couldn’t determine a winner!

Moreover, Gu Changsheng was already restrained because of the fire starter in the Person in Black’s hand!

They were now in a large wine cellar. If the fire starter in this person’s hand were thrown at the towering pile of wine urns, the resulting explosion would definitely involve the entire underground wine cellar of Xunyang City!

After all, such a dense wine cellar couldn’t be compared with sporadic wine urns. The danger was beyond comparison!

A loud shout from the Medicine Immortal Old Man successfully caused both combatants to pause.

Especially the Person in Black, whose brows furrowed under the black mask, and eyes tightened!

At such a level, the perception of danger was extraordinarily keen. He had an intuition that the owner of this voice was a presence that could threaten his life!

Thinking of this, the Person in Black dared not delay, and looking at the dagger lunged by Gu Changsheng, actually did not dodge and charged forward!

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng’s hand holding the dagger paused, and a bad premonition suddenly flashed through her heart!

”Poof!”

The next moment, the sound of the Chonghua Dagger entering the flesh brought forth a spray of blood before Gu Changsheng!

And in that instant, Gu Changsheng’s Phoenix Eyes widened, shouting, ”No!”

As soon as she said it, she clearly saw that when her dagger stabbed into the Person in Black’s body, the fire starter in his hand, carrying all his momentum as he charged, flew swiftly out of his grasp...

Spinning rapidly, flying toward the pile of mountains of wine urns...

Immediately, Gu Changsheng’s eyes were about to pop out, wanting to retreat and intercept, only to find that her hand holding the dagger could not be withdrawn!

Turning her head around, she saw the Person in Black, with her dagger stuck in his abdomen, his bloodstained hand clinging tightly to her wrist, using every bit of strength he had left!

The Person in Black’s exposed eyes flashed with a certainty, and a deep and hoarse voice with a Foreign Tribe accent rang out, ”Holy Master Highness’s decree, Princess’s wish, Youming Xiying, even if it means death, must fulfill it! With Xunyang City as my burial, I, Youming Xiying, die without regret!”

”Damn you, get the hell off me!” Gu Changsheng shouted angrily, channeling all her power into the restrained wrist in an instant.

”Boom!”

With Gu Changsheng’s wrathful strike, Youming Xiying’s body immediately fell backward, a large bloom of blood bursting forth from the chest!

”Disciple!”

When the Medicine Immortal Old Man arrived, he saw his favored disciple, regardless of everything, rushing toward the wine storage emitting phosphorus light and ever-ready to explode, causing his aged face to turn pale from fright. He slapped his thigh and rapidly moved toward Gu Changsheng...

”Are you stupid? Such a deadly task should be left to that rotten kid on the ground!” Even before reaching Gu Changsheng’s side, the voice of the jumping Medicine Immortal Old Man could be heard.

Seeing this wine cellar about to explode, this stubborn child was recklessly charging forward!

If not courting death, what was she doing?

This was like trying to stop a chariot with a mantis, blatantly courting death!

”He’s afraid of fire! Old Man, stay back!” Gu Changsheng, feeling the climbing temperature around her and the stack of wine urns flickering with phosphorus flames, shouted hoarsely.

”He’s afraid of fire, but that doesn’t mean you get to die! Get the hell out of here, you who only have eyes for pretty men!” The Medicine Immortal Old Man was immediately incensed by her words, calculated the distance, and waved his aged hand, causing a surge of inner strength to flood out from his body!

With this surge of inner strength raging, the space-time of the underground wine cellar seemed to twist, and the wine urns, on the verge of ignition, began to tremble violently, pounding and clattering...

”Damn it! Old Man, you’re making things worse!” Seeing the wine spilling from the trembling urns instantly ignite into ghostly blue flames, Gu Changsheng’s expression changed immediately...
