Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Thirty zhang!

Twenty zhang!

Fifteen zhang!

Closer!

Even closer!

The army of Man-eating Ants, using the corpses of their companions and giant crocodile carcasses as bridges, had accelerated their pace after Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu pushed the crocodile carcasses towards the opposite bank!

Ten zhang!

Eight zhang!

Six zhang!

As the army of Man-eating Ants surged continuously towards the center line of the river, Gu Changsheng’s hand under the Red Sleeve tightened more and more!

Exactly!

The river’s center line was Gu Changsheng’s limit!

She was waiting, waiting for the army of Man-eating Ants to cross the center line, waiting for them to enter her attack range!

And this range of attack was precisely calculated by Gu Changsheng; even if she couldn’t successfully overturn the army of Man-eating Ants in this river, she could ensure her own retreat!

Gu Changsheng had never fought a battle without confidence!

But being chased so embarrassingly was the first time, and worse, it wasn’t by people, but by ants that had driven her into such a predicament!

Thus, Gu Changsheng, who was not very patient, couldn’t tolerate it anymore!

If they kept chasing like this, in comparison to the small-sized, numerous, seemingly tireless army of Man-eating Ants, they, as humans, would eventually become exhausted, and at that moment, they would be unable to escape the fate of being devoured and ending up as mere skeletons!

In that case, why not take a risk and fight?

At least for now, she still has the strength to gamble!

However, being chased further, when everyone’s energy is depleted, that would be a time when there’s no chance to fight back!

Tired bombardment!

Gu Changsheng thought, as a human, she absolutely couldn’t afford to endure against a group of ants!

Especially since these ants were even more terrifying and deadly than ordinary ants!

Then...

Fight to the death, but survive!

”Evildoer!”

Ignoring the wrathful shouts from the Hidden World Clan behind her, targeting evildoers, Gu Changsheng turned, glanced at the man standing tall beside her, and called softly, her eyes full of hesitation!

Actually, in her heart, she wasn’t very sure!

After all, the army of Man-eating Ants was too large in number, blocking out the sky and the sun; this river clearly couldn’t stop them, and even Gu Changsheng didn’t know whether she could, with her external force, successfully overturn the ant army into this river!

She was gambling!

Gambling on her strength and her luck!

Gambling...

On her life and all she had!

Of course, it also included all those by her side!

Because, though she had left them a chance to catch breath and escape again, once the army of Man-eating Ants successfully crossed the river and restarted their relentless pursuit, the outcome seemed destined!

Destined to be a dead end!

Therefore, this gamble she had to take!

And she took it with no certainty in her heart!

This was the first time Gu Changsheng faced a situation with no chance of victory even after making complete preparations!

In this situation, she couldn’t help but turn her head to the man beside her, hoping to find some courage to place this heavy bet from him!

Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s soft call, Zhou Mu returned to reality, the depths of his eyes resembling a Cold Pool, as calm as ever!

As if all the hardships before him were insignificant!

In his eyes, there was only this small woman beside him, occupying his sight and heart!

”The King is here!” Facing each other, Zhou Mu’s lips curved slightly, revealing a gentle smile on his face like a Divine Residence, almost as if fearing Gu Changsheng couldn’t hear clearly, he smilingly repeated, ”The King is here...”

The King is here!

Wherever you are, the King is there!

So, Changsheng, don’t be afraid!

No matter when or where, through mountains of blades and seas of fire, facing death, the King will be with you!

This is a promise, and with actions, he once again proves to Gu Changsheng that Zhou Mu keeps his word and will never regret it!

The King is here!

He is here!

He is by her side!

Almost at the moment these words were heard, Gu Changsheng’s heart transformed from the confusion and emptiness in front of the Man-eating Ant army to unwavering determination!

Yes!

He is still here!

Even in the face of unpredictability in life and death, she won’t be alone!

Her happiness is that even in death, she can be buried in the same place with him!

With that, what is there for her to fear?

A desolate mountain wilderness, the skeletons at the bottom of the cliff—what of it?

Even then, her fingers would be tightly interlocked with her family’s evildoer!

”It’s getting closer!”

Her mind was racing, yet Gu Changsheng’s gaze lingered on Zhou Mu for only a moment before turning toward the army of man-eating ants on the river’s surface!

Those were her enemies!

This battle was either you die or I live!

And Gu Changsheng would exhaust every effort to chase the outcome of survival!

The hands hidden beneath her sleeves clenched again, and on Gu Changsheng’s bright face was an expression of facing a formidable enemy. Her red dress fluttered fiercely, stained with the half-dried blood of giant crocodiles, rustling in the bloody wind blowing from the river. The crackling sound of her bones echoed continuously from her body, as if her entire being was being reshaped, forged...

”Man-eating ants! Today, I, Gu Changsheng, will see if you, a race favored by heaven, can take my life away! Let’s find out!”

A faint low shout came from Gu Changsheng’s mouth!

Calm, devoid of any emotion!

An empty, bewildered mood, accompanied by scarlet killing intent, almost simultaneously suffused Gu Changsheng’s whole body, like her bloodied red clothes, vivid and glaringly red...

Almost at the same time this low shout rang out, Gu Changsheng’s figure shot up from the ground!

Her red bloodied clothes and the mingling killing intent, tangible under the river wind, faced the bloody rain and stench, faced the army of man-eating ants surging across the river, her figure rapidly soared towards the center of the river...

”Gu Changsheng, you calamity, you...”

”You’re actually helping the man-eating ants cross the river, you’re ruining us, you murderer, you...”

”...”

The people of the Hidden World Clan, who were still cursing loudly, were caught off guard by Gu Changsheng’s sudden action, and the curses in their mouths stopped involuntarily!

In fact, when they saw the army of man-eating ants crossing the river, they had already given up hope!

If even this great river couldn’t stop the army of man-eating ants, what else at the bottom of Intestine-Breaking Cliff could?

How could they have any chance of survival?

Death was almost certain!

And before death, Gu Changsheng’s act of pushing the crocodile’s corpse as a bridge for the man-eating ants undoubtedly accelerated their demise and gave them a venting point!

Curses!

Relentless curses, at this moment, abruptly ceased as Gu Changsheng flew toward the army of man-eating ants!

Yu Qingqiu, with a face full of hatred, couldn’t help but take a step forward in shock at Gu Changsheng’s move and uttered incredulously, ”What... what is she doing?”

At this moment, heading towards the army of man-eating ants, was Gu Changsheng seeking death?

”Could it be that she wants to fight to the death with the army of man-eating ants? What a joke! This is striking a stone with an egg! She is courting death!”

”She harmed us, and now she wants to play the hero? What a fool!”

”Exactly, but seeing her die before us is also satisfying!”

”Die, then die, we can’t escape it anyway, it’s just a matter of who goes first!”

”Oh my god, we’re destined to die here!”

”...”

Voices of contempt, voices of resignation...

One after another, echoed on the riverbank...

Standing on the bank, with a tall figure, sword drawn and poised, ready to take over from his woman to continue blocking the way, Zhou Mu took in all these words, unable to help but display a flash of anger on his godly face!

His Changsheng had a sharp tongue but a soft heart!

Although she spoke harshly, when the Hidden World Clan people attracted the army of man-eating ants, on the way they escaped to the bottom of Intestine-Breaking Cliff, she clearly had countless opportunities to eliminate these people, yet she didn’t!

Not only did she not, but she subtly always left them a sliver of life!

Just like saving Yu Lianyi!

Her kindness, her benevolent heart, her last ounce of cherishing life, in return for their heartless ridicule!

How detestable!

This group of people is just too detestable!

If it weren’t for his little woman accompanying him, with Zhou Mu’s cold-blooded and ruthless nature, this group of people would’ve been sent to the eighteenth level of Hell long ago, and he wouldn’t care about their lives. In his heart, the only important person, the one who has been in his heart from start to finish, is just that one person!

That’s that fluttering red figure who stayed behind to cover his retreat, standing alone against the army of man-eating ants, that slender woman!

His woman!

His Changsheng!

At all times, she maintains absolute rationality, making the most reasonable judgments!

Even knowing all paths are blocked, she’d still take a chance and seek an epiphany of hope!

Yet, at this moment, Zhou Mu could neither be distracted nor willing to waste extra effort on the wolf-hearted creatures of the Hidden World Clan. His gaze remained fixed on that woman soaring alone!

The person he loves!

The woman who illuminates his orderly, dull life!

The people of the Hidden World Clan were taken aback by Gu Changsheng’s sudden move, but compared to the overwhelming army of man-eating ants in the heart of the river, their situation could still be considered favorable!

”Boom!”

A loud crash came from the heart of the river, almost simultaneously, a red figure was thrown back from the river’s surface...
