Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1465: Chapter 1110: Shocked, Falling Once More into the Realm of Sudden Enlightenment

Can we not just act like nothing’s wrong and carry on as usual?

At least say something, otherwise, if this Dugu Jieao goes berserk, and there’s no way to summon the Medicine Immortal Old Man, won’t I just become cannon fodder?

Dammit!

This is not the result she wanted!

Gu Changsheng’s face instantly darkened, comparable to the soot at the bottom of a pot!

What to do?

What to do now?

In terms of causing trouble, the Old Madam Zuoqiu in front of her is truly unmatched, isn’t she?

If you don’t provoke them, fine, but provoke them, and they end up being the ones you can’t afford to provoke!

Although Gu Changsheng is probably the person here who dislikes Dugu Jieao the most, there’s no contest, but she isn’t ready for a reckoning just yet, okay?

She still hasn’t agreed to the Nirvana Martial Contest, she hasn’t even claimed the Conquest Realm reward from the Nirvana Martial Contest. At this time, starting a fight with Dugu Jieao is undoubtedly suicidal!

Gu Changsheng is such an intelligent person, she’s not going to do something as foolish as suicide!

Therefore, Gu Changsheng immediately and inconspicuously moved closer to Old Madam Zuoqiu, who was holding her own little fat bundle...

Oh my god!

Asking for a hug!

Begging for protection!

She doesn’t know yet how capable Dugu Jieao is after losing two Spirit Bodies, doesn’t know if she can deal with him!

Old Madam Zuoqiu, while you’re holding my boy, hold me too!

I don’t want to be cannon fodder!

Moving...

In the heavy breathing of Dugu Jieao’s extreme anger, she silently and unobtrusively moved...

Where there is danger, there I am?

Are you kidding?

Do you think this is sacrificing oneself for the country?

At least sacrificing for the country gets you posthumously awarded as a martyr; if she’s cannon fodder here, she won’t be a martyr, she’ll be a fool!

She’s not that stupid!

This is being a wise person who adapts to circumstances!

Holding her little fat bundle in her arms, the Old Madam Zuoqiu had a Dragon Head Cane in one hand, and a small ball in the other. She gave Gu Changsheng a sidelong glance with her droopy old eyes, taking in all her little actions, and couldn’t help but issue a cold snort...

”Humph!”

Gu Changsheng’s footsteps paused, oh my god, she finally said something!

But, do you have to be like this?

This look of disappointment and exasperation, what does it mean? What does it mean?

For a moment, Gu Changsheng’s discreet movement paused, she felt if she moved another tiny bit towards Old Madam Zuoqiu, the next second, that Dragon Head Cane might knock on her forehead!

This is an intuition!

And Gu Changsheng trusts her intuition very much!

What to do?

Am I not allowed to move? Can’t we just have fun?

”Useless thing! What are you afraid of? Don’t embarrass me, old lady!” A stern but not loud reprimand, carrying absolute authority, came from Old Madam Zuoqiu’s mouth.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately hung her head!

Make no mistake, this is totally directed at her!

Alright then...

She indeed chickened out!

But come on, that small ball almost turned old Dugu Jieao into a beehive, how can I not chicken out?

If I don’t chicken out and he suddenly strikes, wouldn’t I still end up cannon fodder?

For heaven’s sake, she’s someone who cherishes her life!

”Old Woman Zuoqiu! You’ve gone too far!” Finally, covering his ears and with a handful of blood, Dugu Jieao couldn’t hold back any longer. He roared in anger, ”Soul-snatching Thousand Mechanism Ball! How dare you use the Soul-snatching Thousand Mechanism Ball against this Elder!”

Gu Changsheng was so startled by Dugu Jieao’s roar that she moved closer to Old Madam Zuoqiu again.

A cold light swept over her, and she met Old Madam Zuoqiu’s eyes, laughed awkwardly, and sincerely muttered under her breath, ”You know, can’t beat him! Can’t beat him! Just can’t beat him for now...”

The last bit about not being able to beat him for now was a last-resort explanation since she saw Old Madam Zuoqiu’s face darkening more and more...

Damn, I really can’t beat him right now!

She’s not even in the Conquest Realm yet!

She’s very self-aware, okay?

”Humph!” Old Madam Zuoqiu gave the woman who was now standing by her Dragon Head Cane a sidelong glance, not too harshly, let out a cold snort, and then faced Dugu Jieao, her droopy eyelid didn’t even twitch, as she harshly rebuked, ”What are you yelling for? If you scare the good boy in my old lady’s arms, can you afford to pay for it?”

Just when Gu Changsheng was slightly reassured standing by the old Buddha’s foot, hearing this, her lips twitched!

Old Madam Zuoqiu!

Ancestral Granny!

I really bow down to you!

Can you be even more fierce?

Didn’t you see that Dugu Jieao was already burning with anger, his eyes like those of a red-eyed rabbit?

Don’t worry about scaring the child in your arms; he’s here to fight you to the death. Where would he have time for that?

”You! You! Old Woman Zuoqiu! You’ve gone too far! You shot and wounded me, the Elder, do you want to start a civil war within the Hidden World Clans?” The old hand under the black robe creaked as Dugu Jieao prepared to charge forward in the next second, fighting for his life with Old Madam Zuoqiu.

He was injured!

He was actually injured again!

In the battle of Licheng City, he lost two spirit bodies, which dealt a huge blow to his main body, but at least he had no visible scars. Now, in just two short months, even his main body was injured?

How could the always prideful and dismissive Dugu Jieao tolerate this?

He wants to fight!

He wants to kill!

He wants to tear apart anyone who dares to challenge his authority!

”Start a civil war among the Hidden World Clans? Haha...” Sitting like an immovable mountain with a small child in her lap, Old Madam Zuoqiu sneered as a hint of disdain appeared on her old face. She glanced at Dugu Jieao, whose half-face was already blurred with blood, shook her head, and said slowly, ”Some people really take themselves too seriously!”

”You...” Dugu Jieao’s face grew even more ferocious as he heard this.

”I was just playing with the kid and casually shot a few needles; you ran into them yourself, who can you blame? And you speak of starting a civil war among the Hidden World Clans. Clearly, it’s your lack of skill that you couldn’t dodge even the tiny needles of the Soul-snatching Thousand Mechanism Ball! Who can you blame?” Old Madam Zuoqiu’s words were clear, and her old face distinctly conveyed: I shot you on purpose, so what? So what?

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately had three black lines hanging down from her forehead!

Oh my god!

She could guarantee that the few needles Old Madam Zuoqiu shot were definitely intentional!

She must have sensed Dugu Jieao would lift the curtain and enter, calculated his exact position, and then suddenly shot these needles to corner him as he entered, directly marking him!

But...

But that’s not the main point!

The crucial thing is that if she hadn’t dodged quickly, those needles would’ve definitely hit her face rather than Dugu Jieao’s ear, who suddenly appeared behind her!

Even now, the cool breeze from the silver needles flying past her temple can still be felt!

No, wait!

As if realizing something, Gu Changsheng suddenly widened her eyes and looked incredulously at Old Madam Zuoqiu!

Wait!

This all seemed planned!

Old Madam Zuoqiu foresaw the angle and position of Dugu Jieao’s entry; she used Gu Changsheng as cover, blocking Dugu Jieao’s sight, so he surely couldn’t see the suddenly shot silver needles...

The blind spot of Dugu Jieao’s line of sight, position...

Her position, reaction...

The angle and speed of the silver needle shot...

All of this seemed casual, yet it was all within Old Madam Zuoqiu’s expectations...

Gu Changsheng’s heart trembled fiercely!

She was utterly sure that the silver needles shot by Old Madam Zuoqiu were targeted specifically at Dugu Jieao who suddenly entered, and she herself was just a wall to blind Dugu Jieao’s sight for the old lady!

How precise must the calculation be to orchestrate this?

How much confidence is required?

Had it been off by a bit, the face covered in blood wouldn’t be Dugu Jieao’s, but hers, Gu Changsheng’s!

But, she dodged it!

She used her own vigilance and speed to dodge the silver needles!

Old Madam Zuoqiu believed in her!

No!

More accurately, she believed that the silver needles she released would definitely hit the target!

Precise calculation over the battlefield, even to the smallest detail, was all within her calculations!

Confidence in her assured victory, everything was within her calculations!

The comprehensive planning that included everyone’s reactions within...

In that moment, Gu Changsheng’s eyes were first filled with shock, then a void of confusion...

Her whole person seemed trapped in emptiness; under the dazzling move of Old Madam Zuoqiu, Gu Changsheng seemed to have entered a state of Sudden Enlightenment once again, carefully savoring the insight brought by Old Madam Zuoqiu...

Speed, she could constantly push her body’s potential, unleashing the utmost limit of speed...

However, during a bottleneck period, Gu Changsheng knew more than anyone that this was not enough, far from enough...

She felt she was always missing something, unable to understand...

Just like in the battle with the Goddess of Mercy yesterday, while in a state of Sudden Enlightenment, she snatched the horsetail whisk from the Goddess of Mercy’s hand with her bare hands; that moment of insight she couldn’t seize afterward...

But now, at this moment, this second, she seemed to have grasped something...

Dugu Jieao was still furiously questioning, his voice filled with unrestrained anger!

Old Madam Zuoqiu was still leisurely exchanging sharp words with him...

But Gu Changsheng couldn’t hear any of this!

Couldn’t hear!

Before her eyes, there seemed to be a door, a wide door shrouded in mist, blurry and indistinct, standing right before her, waiting for her to step forward, to push open and look at the different scenery inside...

In an instant, Gu Changsheng, who was on the side stand, was physically present but seemed detached, eyes empty and confused, her whole being clear and ethereal like void, with the aura around her fluctuating and gradually settling into an eerie calm...
