Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1498: Chapter 1137: Enemies Are Bound to Meet

Every returning servant boy, carrying a bunch of bottles and jars in their arms, made a clinking sound with their running...

On the stage, the competition continued, but clearly, it was no longer the center of attention. Everyone’s gaze unconsciously turned towards the servant boys rushing towards the side stands...

One, two, three...

Quite a lot indeed!

”Mother, what are they carrying?” Nestled in Zhou Mu’s arms, the little dumpling watched the servant boys heading to the side stands and asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng finally lifted her eyes, glanced towards the side stand, and nonchalantly said with a curl of her lips, ”It can’t be anything good!”

”Are those medicines? Just like the ones in your bottles?” The little dumpling asked innocently, blinking his big eyes, ”Mother, they’re just returning the favor using their own methods!”

”Son, you’re overthinking!” Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but interrupt her son’s thoughts, ”You’re giving the Hidden World Clan too much credit!”

”Hmm?” As soon as Gu Changsheng said this, Old Lady Zuoqiu, sitting next to Dugu Jieao, responded coolly with a single syllable.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng quickly changed her tone, smiling broadly, ”Hehe, of course, Ancestral Granny and Senior Zhuge, you are surely benevolent! The ones who aren’t kind are sitting next door! Next door!”

Oh my god, this old lady is formidable. Gu Changsheng felt completely at a loss!

Especially after using medicine to win and coming back, Old Lady Zuoqiu had no idea how many times she had rolled her eyes at her!

Oh, heaven have mercy!

Was she going to roll her eyes to death?

Had she done anything so egregious?

Clearly, the Hidden World Clan was targeting her. They even sent a Master of the Primordial Transformative Realm. If she didn’t show some real skills, should she just sit and admit defeat?

Clearly, asking Gu Changsheng to concede was impossible!

So, no matter how much Old Lady Zuoqiu rolled her eyes, she would use the medicine if needed. She had such a thick skin! Humph!

”Mother, then what do you think they are bringing?” The little dumpling’s chubby face held a trace of worry as he asked.

”Whatever it is, it’s nothing good. Probably something harmful!” Gu Changsheng sneered at another servant boy carrying bottles and jars into the neighboring side stand.

”Something harmful? Poison?” The little dumpling immediately widened his eyes in surprise.

”Yes!” Like mother, like son. Her son was quite the little expert in using poison, at least he managed to poison his own master before. So it’s no surprise he quickly realized they were gathering poison.

”Godfather! They actually want to use poison on you, Mother? That’s just...” Knowing the truth, the little dumpling scrunched up his chubby face.

”Just what? Son, what do you want to say?” Gu Changsheng lifted an eyebrow at her son, smiling as she asked.

”Just too unscrupulous, right, Mother?” The little dumpling quickly put on a flattering smile when his mother looked at him.

”Yes! It’s somewhat unscrupulous! But since I’ve used medicine, it wouldn’t be fair to stop them from using poison! We can’t have double standards, right?” Gu Changsheng chuckled, shrugging casually, not at all fazed by the idea of them using poison on her.

”Mother, I feel sorry for them...” The little dumpling rubbed his hands, expressing his sympathy upon seeing his mother’s demeanor.

”Son, are you really my child?” Gu Changsheng exclaimed, rolling her eyes.

”Yes! I am truly your biological son! As true as can be!”

”...”

Mother and son laughed it off, but Shi Wujue, sitting beside, was not that calm. To be precise, his extraordinary face and long brows were already furrowed as he poked Zhou Mu’s arm, whispering, ”If the Hidden World Clan uses poison, then she...”

”Use poison? Let them use it...” Zhou Mu, hearing this, finally snapped out of meditation, looked at the neighboring side stands, and spoke nonchalantly.

”Zhou, how can you be so indifferent? Don’t you know that there are thousands of deadly poisons in the world, each capable of killing without a trace!” Shi Wujue was instantly enraged by Zhou Mu’s indifference.
