Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Above the stairs was that path wide enough for only three people to walk side by side...

As if disdainfully, Yu Qingqiu stepped over the bone powder scattered on the ground, pursing his lips and walked forward, circumventing those gathered beneath the stairs and searching through the scattered skeleton remains, then turned back...

The bizarre scene nearly unfolded in the instant Yu Qingqiu turned back!

Because Yu Qingqiu had repeatedly mocked him, Gu Changsheng was staring at Yu Qingqiu with a face full of disdain, capturing every detail of Yu Qingqiu’s actions...

As Yu Qingqiu, standing above the stairs, turned back, Gu Changsheng clearly saw the disdain in his eyes instantly dissipate, replaced by an endless fear...

Seeing Yu Qingqiu’s transformation, a glimmer passed through Gu Changsheng’s phoenix eyes...

He turned his head, looked in the direction Yu Qingqiu was gazing...

What on earth was it that frightened Yu Qingqiu so much? Look at that stark terror in his eyes, and the horrific expression...

Soon, Gu Changsheng frowned because following Yu Qingqiu’s gaze, she saw nothing!

Behind them were only some disciples from the Hidden World Clan and the few remaining servants, standing there watching their elders search for things...

No strange thing at all!

What was Yu Qingqiu afraid of? Why make such a frightening expression, it’s so unsettling!

Turning his head back with complete puzzlement, Gu Changsheng opened his mouth to curse, ”Damnit, don’t you know scaring people could scare someone to death, you...”

But before Gu Changsheng could finish his curse, he abruptly stopped, looking at Yu Qingqiu! His bright little face was now full of horror, just like Yu Qingqiu’s expression earlier!

Yu Qingqiu was still in the posture of turning back, with shock on his face, and fear still filled his eyes, but there was something different...

Gu Changsheng clearly felt the color draining rapidly from Yu Qingqiu’s face, almost invisible if his eyesight power wasn’t strong enough...

At a speed almost imperceptible to the naked eye, the color on Yu Qingqiu’s face vanished quickly, and Gu Changsheng, standing not far from him, with her experiences of evading death’s grasp multiple times, could clearly sense the vitality in Yu Qingqiu’s body fading away swiftly...

As if it evaporated halfway, disappearing instantly...

The muscles shriveled rapidly, and his whole appearance changed in an instant, maintaining the posture of turning back, like a flower that withers rapidly at its peak bloom...

”Yu Qingqiu!”

Gu Changsheng exclaimed in shock.

”My Lord, you...”

As Gu Changsheng noticed Yu Qingqiu’s abnormality, others also realized it, and shouted along, not only calling out but also hurriedly rushing toward Yu Qingqiu...

”Don’t go!”

Almost instinctively, Gu Changsheng reached out and shouted.

But although Gu Changsheng spoke quickly, the person’s speed was faster, almost at the moment Gu Changsheng opened her mouth, the person had already stepped onto the stairs...

This person was none other than Yu Qingqiu’s close servant boy, an anonymous servant...

Watching him step onto the stairs, then anxiously grabbing Yu Qingqiu’s hand, turning back, opening his mouth as if trying to call someone, Gu Changsheng’s phoenix eyes immediately narrowed, her hand hidden under her sleeve had unknowingly grabbed Zhou Mu’s hand in tension...

Fingers interlocked, Gu Changsheng watched in horror as the eerie occurrence happened again!

Familiar actions, familiar expressions, familiar results...

That servant was just like Yu Qingqiu, maintaining the backward turn, frozen in place...

And Gu Changsheng, covering her mouth with one hand and gripping her evildoer’s hand with the other, looked in terror at the two standing on the stairs, phoenix eyes full of fear...

Because she could clearly feel that the vitality in Yu Qingqiu’s body had vanished before the servant’s, completely gone without a trace!

Yu Qingqiu was dead!

Died mysteriously!

And the servant who followed Yu Qingqiu up the stairs also could not escape death!

How could this be?

Why is this happening?

At this moment, the members of the Hidden World Clan, crouching under the steps and rummaging through skeleton relics, finally noticed the oddity concerning Yu Qingqiu and the other two...

Elder Yuh saw his son suddenly meet with misfortune; his aged face changed color instantly. He threw what he held onto the ground, stood up in a panic, and was about to step onto the staircase, anxiously calling, ”Qingqiu? Qingqiu, what happened to you?”

This time, still immersed in fear, Gu Changsheng hadn’t yet come to her senses. Zhou Mu, who was interlocked fingers with her, reacted first, raising his hand for a strike, directly blasting it towards Elder Yuh...

The skill gap between a Master of the Primordial Transformative Realm and a Master of the Transformative Realm was already vast, let alone that Zhou Mu had endured the nine Heavenly Punishments alongside Gu Changsheng?

His strike successfully sent Elder Yuh flying a great distance, causing him to crash against the nearby stone wall, stabilizing his form with a thud...

”Don’t go over there! This place is strange!” The deep voice was extremely convincing, as Zhou Mu’s eyes, as cold as a cold pool, were fixed on the lifeless bodies of Yu Qingqiu and the other two on the steps, his face, akin to a Divine Residence, full of horror...

Gu Changsheng also snapped back to reality at Zhou Mu’s first words, and before Elder Yuh and the others could make a move, she was the first to speak, ”Anyone who wants to die can go up! This staircase is very sinister!”

Gu Changsheng had no intention of saving anyone. She had rescued the people of the Hidden World Clan countless times but hadn’t received even the slightest gratitude! She was reluctant to perform such futile efforts. Although she disdained the gratitude of the Hidden World Clan, at this moment, after all, they were grasshoppers tied to the same rope...

”Qingqiu, you, you...” With Yuh Zhangzhu’s help, Elder Yuh got up from the ground, his aged face becoming much older, filled with a look of grief. Seeing Yu Qingqiu, already dead on the steps, a line of tears fell down...

Yet, even so, he didn’t take another step forward...

Clearly, he had taken the words of Zhou Mu and Gu Changsheng to heart...

”This cave, this staircase, this path, there’s something wrong!” Standing behind Gu Changsheng, Yu Lianyi, her delicate face still pale, spoke with certainty, without any hint of sadness over the death of her brother, Yu Qingqiu...

At this moment, no one cared whether Yu Lianyi was sad about her sibling’s death. What they were concerned about was why Yu Qingqiu and his servant died so inexplicably...

Gu Changsheng stood at the bottom of the steps, gazing at Yu Qingqiu and his servant, now resembling mummies. Her brilliant little face was full of contemplation, as she absentmindedly muttered with the string of keys in her hand, ”The same actions, the same expressions—turned their heads, and died...”

”This path leads off the cliff, called No Return... this path leads off the cliff, called No Return...”

As Gu Changsheng murmured softly, her Phoenix Eyes gradually lit up, and a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on her bright little face...

”What have you discovered?” Zhou Mu turned slightly, catching the expression of his little woman, and asked in a deep voice!

”This path leads off the cliff, called No Return!” Hearing her evildoer’s question, Gu Changsheng raised her hand dumbly, pointing to the cave just in front of her, continuing in a deep voice, ”Called No Return! No Return! This place, on the stairs, on the path in the stone cave, is the real No Return Path!”

”Once you step on it, you can’t look back, or you die! That weathered skeleton, before turning to bone powder, was in the same posture as Yu Qingqiu and them, with his head kept in a turning motion...”

When she said these words, deep down, Gu Changsheng was in disbelief!

But, even though she was in disbelief, Gu Changsheng still trusted her judgment!

Because, among the people present, none probably understood more clearly than her how Yu Qingqiu and his servant met their deaths step by step!

Death came as soon as they stepped on this No Return Path, then, in one instant looking back...

Almost at that instant, the fear in their eyes revealed their death!

Turning her head in a daze, she looked around, Gu Changsheng only saw one face after another full of panic-stricken expressions...

She had tried!

She had already tried!

When Yu Qingqiu turned his head and revealed a horrified expression, she had already tried!

Standing in her position, standing below the steps, she could turn her head without any problem!

But Yu Qingqiu was dead, dying so strangely and inexplicably!

”No! No! Without Witch Gu Power, it isn’t a curse, nor are there strong enemies, there is no inner fluctuation at all. Why is it, that stepping on this path, looking back leads to death?” As the leader of the Witch and Gu Tribes, Gu Changsheng was extremely certain that around them, there was no Witch Gu Power, no curse, nothing that could instantly be deadly!

”No! No! This place is too terrifying! I want to leave here! Leave here!” A servant of the Hidden World Clan, devastated by Yu Qingqiu’s death, had collapsed psychologically, muttering nervously as he retreated backward...

Gu Changsheng was still exploring the cause of Yu Qingqiu’s strange death, paying no heed to the actions of the Hidden World Clan’s members. But soon, from behind her, came a shout of surprise!

”Ah!”

”Bang!”

Almost simultaneously, a scream and the sound of a fall resounded. Gu Changsheng turned around and saw the servant of the Hidden World Clan, as if blocked by some invisible force, rebound and fall to the ground...

Witnessing the scene, Gu Changsheng’s eyes instantly widened, and an ominous sensation arose in her heart!
