Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1328: Chapter 989: The Reaper Returns, Changsheng’s Slaughter!

Zhou Mu, although not a member of the Witch Gu People of the Southwest, had heard much about the Witch Gu Technique from the people of the Heavenly Palace!

Self-sacrifice, such witchcraft, inherently exists as a forbidden taboo!

With life sacrificed completely, the Divine Soul extinguished, no longer existing...

The fear of losing Gu Changsheng made Zhou Mu feel as if he were falling into madness, slapping the Prison Dragon Formation’s inexplicable barrier, eyes nearly bursting, ”Father-in-law, stop her! She will die! She is your only daughter! Let me out! Let me out!”

At this moment, Gu Taitian stood at the Gate of Life in the Prison Dragon Formation, his old eyes, weathered and clouded, filled with worry as he watched the back of his daughter, his aged face full of concern and contemplation...

”Little Monk, you knew she would make this choice, didn’t you?” Ignoring Zhou Mu’s cries for help, Gu Taitian’s old eyes, seeming to see through the world, slowly turned to the side where Little Monk Bu Jie stood, and he slowly asked.

Standing outside the Prison Dragon Formation, Little Monk Bu Jie, wrapped in hemp robes covering his small body, his bright little head, holding a string of Buddha Beads in his hand, was spinning them much more quickly than usual...

With still benevolent eyes and a kind face, eyes understanding the world, seeming to contain the stars inside, Little Monk Bu Jie looked at the Secluded Valley where the Red Lotus Karma Fire ravaged, the radiant brilliance without an expression of pity or worry, heard Gu Taitian’s question, chanted a Buddhist verse, and slowly said, ”Amitabha, a forbidden witchcraft that violates the cycle of Heavenly Dao, Red Lotus Karma Fire from the depths of Nine Nether... Benefactor Gu, escaping your heavenly punishment was one, Benefactor Yuan Bao’s rebirth was two, now, this is the third... Everything depends on whether Benefactor Changsheng can survive this disaster...”

Upon hearing this, Gu Taitian’s old face immediately turned gloomy and unfathomable.

The mystery in Little Monk Bu Jie’s words, perhaps only he could understand...

As the Lord of Bashu, Gu Taitian understood better than anyone that sacrificial witchcraft became forbidden because it inherently went against the heavens!

Going against the heavens sure leads to heavenly punishment!

”As the saying goes, what’s done can be undone, but thrice as difficult. If... it’s really as Little Monk says, then this world...” At this, Gu Taitian paused, raised his head, and sighed at the sky with infinite concern!

Gu Changsheng is his daughter!

The daughter for whom, in past and present lives, he would sacrifice everything, how could he watch her die?

Would the efforts of both him and his beloved wife, in past and present lives, not be in vain?

All because, deep down, he had a lingering doubt!

If his inner doubt were confirmed, then the matter would involve more than just his daughter’s life...

”Let me go! Changsheng, stop! Stop! You promised me never to leave or forsake me in this life, how can you be so cruel? Stop!” Inside the Prison Dragon Formation, Zhou Mu was still roaring, and the sound brought sorrow to anyone who heard it!

However, none present dared to heed him!

The resolution of their master, the rampant Red Lotus Karma Fire, left them unsure how to respond...

Trapped inside the Prison Dragon Formation, with no way to seek help privately, Zhou Mu helplessly watched that slender red figure resolutely, without nostalgia, walking elegantly step by step towards death, his deep cold pool-like eyes showing a blood-crying look, unable to hold back, he howled at the sky, with killing intent swirling around him, black as ink, surging up within the Prison Dragon Formation, covering the sky and blocking the sun...

”Ah! Divine Demise Land, Sand Sea Hualang Clan! Whether you are God’s Bereaved Tribe or Demons and Ghosts, I swear here, if my beloved suffers harm, I am willing to enter the Path of the Demon, will utterly slaughter your clan, never to stop!”

The boundless hatred soared to the clouds, purple robes flying, his long black hair dancing messily, in this moment, Zhou Mu, surrounded by the raging black killing aura, seemed like a demon emerging in the world, making those who saw it tremble with fear!

Gu Changsheng, who was walking step by step towards Fufeng Tianlan, heard the howl from behind, and a trace of heartache appeared on her pale face, but ultimately, she did not look back...

She did not have much time...

Her vitality was close to being completely burnt away by the Red Lotus Karma Fire!

She had to kill the woman in front!

Before her Divine Soul was completely extinguished!

”Gu Changsheng, are you really going to perish together with me?” Her snow-white robes were blown to tatters, her face a mask of blood stains and blackened marks, her flowing long hair vanished without a trace, and yet Fufeng Tianlan had no time to care about any of this, the searing Red Lotus Karma Fire around her made her life unbearable, staring at the red figure approaching step by step, Fufeng Tianlan’s eyes were filled with fleeting ominous glints, she forced herself to stand up with difficulty, leaning on the precipice...

Around her, four equally battered Netherworld Shadows staggered up as well, and even in such dire circumstances, they did not forget their loyalty, resolutely surrounding her!

”Miss, fight with her, if she dies, the sacrificial witchcraft collapses, and the Red Lotus Karma Fire on us will also disappear!” Youming Nanying held his chest as he stepped forward, saying softly to Fufeng Tianlan.

”Yes, she dies, we live, that is the result I want!” Fufeng Tianlan upon hearing this, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on her battered face.

Now, with Red Lotus Karma Fire already clinging to them, thinking of escape was no longer possible, and fearing would not solve the problem!

The only thing they could do was to kill Gu Changsheng before their essence blood and soul were completely burnt out by the Red Lotus Karma Fire!

Only then would they have a slim chance of survival!

This was the only glimmer of hope!

Otherwise, if the Red Lotus Hellfire continued to burn like this, they would indeed perish alongside Gu Changsheng!

And Gu Changsheng, of course, knew what they were thinking. In fact, she acted upon it!

As she stepped into the Secluded Valley, Gu Changsheng immediately made a move!

This time, she put away the Chonghua Dagger in her hand and pulled out a Soft Sword from her waist...

This Soft Sword was originally paired with Zhou Mu’s Soft Sword, a wedding gift from Zhou Mu’s master when they got engaged!

Gu Changsheng had always been fond of using short weapons, but this time, it was unnecessary!

Watching the People in Black rolling and wailing in the Red Lotus Hellfire on the ground, Gu Changsheng picked up the Longsword and walked over slowly, choosing the oldest method—to use the sword and end their lives, one by one!

These People in Black imprisoned her father and child, harmed her family, forcing her to sacrifice herself just to kill them!

Gu Changsheng knew that the Sacrificial Witchcraft was complete, and she couldn’t escape death, so before she died, she would send these people to hell to explore the path for her. Although, with the annihilation of the Divine Soul, perhaps she no longer had the qualification to enter hell...

The most primitive means often bring the most satisfaction; Gu Changsheng urgently needed to vent the resentment of her impending death!

Swish!

Gu Changsheng moved!

Underfoot, the Red Lotus Hellfire was still rampant, around her, ice-cold, bone-chilling pain never ceased, but nothing could halt Gu Changsheng’s steps!

In the narrow Secluded Valley, with each swing of Gu Changsheng’s sword, a Person in Black fell, blood splattering, staining the ground’s stones with a mottled color...

This was a unilateral slaughter, the People in Black had the advantage of numbers and were all skilled, but the pain from the burning Red Lotus Hellfire was not something anyone could endure, not even the trained People in Black!

And Gu Changsheng, she was able to endure this bone-eroding pain because, when performing the Sacrificial Witchcraft, she had already considered herself a dead person!

A dead person doesn’t need to feel!

Pain and torment only affect those with the will to survive!

And Gu Changsheng, knowing she must die, just wanted to take everyone down with her!

Gu Changsheng was like Death itself, as the enchanting and magnificent Red Lotus Hellfire bloomed around her, consuming all vitality, while she emotionlessly reaped the lives of these People in Black...

Blood blossomed like flowers in the Secluded Valley, coloring the burning Red Lotus Hellfire...

The slaughter continued, and just at this moment, above Gu Changsheng, five figures suddenly appeared, descending from the sky with incredible speed, five Longswords straightly hacking down at Gu Changsheng...

The sword shadows were so fast that the Dark Night Army in the mountain pass couldn’t even shout a warning, they just opened their mouths in shock...

”Good timing!”

The Longsword sliced across a Person in Black’s neck, bringing forth a spray of blood, a bloody head rolling to Gu Changsheng’s feet in an instant. She let out a low shout, the Red Lotus Hellfire around her blossomed brilliantly again, her Longsword dancing, and with a nimble step, instead of retreating, she charged forward, horizontally chopping toward Fufeng Tianlan and the others...

”Kill her!”

In mid-air, Fufeng Tianlan, holding a Longsword, shouted angrily, his Inner Strength surged, and he hacked toward Gu Changsheng.

The four Netherworld Shadows accelerated their movements upon hearing this, their momentum even more fierce as they pointed their Longswords directly at Gu Changsheng...

”Heaven has a path, you don’t take it; hell has no door, yet you come seeking it; even now, you dare to approach me! Courting death!” Gu Changsheng shouted angrily, a strange smile blossoming on her pale little face...

In an instant, the Red Lotus Hellfire entangled around Fufeng Tianlan and the five people’s bodies blazed even more fervently!

”Hiss!” In mid-air, Fufeng Tianlan let out a low growl as the flames scorched her.

Just as Fufeng Tianlan got distracted for a moment, Gu Changsheng’s Longsword shot straight for her chest, aiming directly at her heart...

Seeing this, Fufeng Tianlan’s face changed drastically, her slender waist twisting in mid-air, trying to avoid Gu Changsheng’s fatal blow!

But how could Gu Changsheng give her such an opportunity?
