Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Yet, just at this moment, a voice sliced through the mottled halo of light in the cave, a voice rang out...

The very instant those who still retained a shred of sanity heard this voice, they immediately raised their heads and looked toward the direction where the No Return Path extended...

There...

A pair of jade‑pale hands, fingers long and slender, were furiously tearing open the stone wall, as if striving to rip apart some kind of imprisonment. Just like that, on the rock face, a crack was forcibly torn open, and that entire person braced himself between the split in the stone wall, turning his head, anxiously looking in their direction...

”Gu Changsheng, wake up, come here, here, this is the only way out...”

The anxious shout came from the man stretched across the stone wall. Only then did those who still had some clarity left see clearly that the one in black brocade, with snow‑white hair fluttering like frost, had a face that could stun the world, yet three‑quarters of it was covered by White Silk, making it impossible to see his features...

But even so, they still recognized him!

Shi Wujue!

Master of Linyuan City, Shi Wujue!

Under heaven, only this man could possess such bearing!

Tearing a stone wall apart with bare hands...

Appearing out of nowhere at the end of this No Return Path...

Only the Master of Linyuan City, this existence that drifted above all nations, transcending them all—somehow, any incomprehensible matter would only seem natural when it appeared on him...

”Gu Changsheng, don’t look back, clear your mind, this City Lord has come to fetch you, come here, here, this is the only way out...”

The anxious call rang out again from Shi Wujue’s mouth. That world‑astonishing face was already covered in sweat, and the hands bracing the stone wall were already trembling slightly...

It was clear that maintaining this support consumed him greatly...

But at such a time, who would notice his discomfort?

Almost at the instant Shi Wujue’s voice fell, those from the Hidden World Clan and Gadatu who still had a sliver of reason left, who had not yet collapsed, turned back, and died, had already begun to run toward where Shi Wujue was as if they’d gone mad...

He had said it—where he was, that was the way out, the only way out...

This cave, this No Return Path, had already claimed too many of their lives. Bizarre deaths, grotesque postures, beyond all reason, yet all too real...

They were on the verge of collapsing under the terror of death. At this moment, Shi Wujue’s appearance, to them, was like that of a Savior. They had no time to think about why he would suddenly appear here out of nowhere, nor time to consider whether what he said was true...

When all hope is gone, even absurd hope is all they can choose to believe in, because they quite literally have no other choice...

Shi Wujue, bitterly holding up the stone wall’s Seal, as the people of the Hidden World Clan walking in front slipped one after another under his arms, his standing figure became more and more unstable...

Yet he still maintained that posture, stubbornly gazing at those two tall, slender silhouettes standing side by side, staring at their fingers tightly intertwined...

One of them, from his mouth, called out the name Changsheng...

The other, from his mouth, called out the parents he longed for in his heart, his obsession for their rebirth...

Even at such a moment, with Heart Demon invading their bodies, illusions impossible to break, they still did not loosen the hands clasped together...

Shi Wujue, bitterly enduring, the corners of his mouth beneath the White Silk couldn’t help but curl slightly. On that face that could awe the world, a touch of bitter smile flashed...

Fortunately, the deepest obsession in her heart... was not him, was it?

Not Zhou Mu!

Nor himself...

Selfishly, she clung to her own parents, not to her lover!

At this moment, Shi Wujue suddenly felt that Gu Changsheng’s selfishness had, unexpectedly, become the only salvation he could cling to!

”Gu Changsheng, don’t look back...”

Watching Gu Changsheng, trapped in illusions and unable to extricate herself, as if she hadn’t heard his voice at all, Shi Wujue’s face grew ever more anxious...

Those still alive had already passed one by one beneath his arm and gone through...

Those left behind now, aside from the dead whose lives were frozen forever on this No Return Path, were only Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu...

Even Yu Lianyi, who had been sprawled on the ground with blood at the corners of her mouth, had been dragged out by Dantai Ling, who had torn himself free from his own Heart Demon...

Only the two of them remained...

The greater the power, the stronger the nature of one’s will—once such a person falls into illusion and Heart Demon, the harder it is to break free. This is entirely proportional to their own strength and temperament...
