Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

”Don’t worry, I’m alright!” Shi Wujue smiled at the two people concerned about him and spoke slowly, ”In fact, I’ve already gotten used to it. I knew all of this from birth. With such a long lifespan, if I still couldn’t get used to it, I’d truly deserve to die!”

”Why talk about death and being alive? Evildoers like us will be a scourge for a thousand years, no worries!” Gu Changsheng said boldly and waved his hand, turning to his evildoer with a big grin, ”Evildoer, isn’t that right?”

Zhou Mu glanced at the little woman, his long lashes slightly lowered, then lifted his head and pondered, ”Maybe you’re the one destined to be the scourge for a thousand years; both Shi Wujue and I really haven’t done anything outrageous.”

They were all born extraordinary, receiving education that was also out of the ordinary. The noble form and style were deeply engrained, and only this little woman in front of them was completely unscrupulous, to the point of being rebellious!

”Actually, both the City Lord and Zhou Mu are considered decent people, but as for you, that’s questionable.” Shi Wujue passed by Gu Changsheng and approached Zhou Mu, reaching out and giving him a brotherly pat on the shoulder.

Zhou Mu typically disliked others touching him, even someone like Shi Wujue whom he had known since childhood, but recalling Shi Wujue’s earlier behavior, he didn’t avoid his gesture.

”You two!” Gu Changsheng looked at her evildoer and Shi Wujue, her mouth twitching!

Those two men!

Simply ridiculous!

”You’re really something! Hmph!” Though she wanted to say more, the words didn’t come out once they reached her lips.

She knew she wanted to disperse the gloom from earlier, her evildoer understood her, naturally thinking the same.

Shi Wujue was like family to them, this bond transcended romantic love!

Accompanying each other through time and facing life-and-death challenges, in front of life and death, love and romance are trivial matters!

In Gu Changsheng’s heart, Shi Wujue held a special place, and Zhou Mu felt the same way too.

They were all of the same kind of people!

To those who treat them well, they repay tenfold, seldom owing anyone anything. But if they are indebted, then the person to whom they owe has an unimaginable status in their heart.

Shi Wujue was just that kind of person!

A person who could make Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu owe a favor, while also earning their respect—this feeling goes beyond romantic love, but is more precious than friendship!

In this world, there’s more than just romantic relationships, there’s also friendship and family!

To Gu Changsheng, Shi Wujue was like family, and for Zhou Mu, it was the same!

However, compared to Gu Changsheng’s constant evasion, Zhou Mu understood better than anyone that Shi Wujue’s feelings for the little woman were no less than his own...

Except for that time at Yanmen Pass, where Zhou Mu had pushed him relentlessly before Shi Wujue confessed his true feelings, Zhou Mu had always seen that person who concealed himself, unwilling to impose difficulties upon them—Shi Wujue!

Such a Shi Wujue was someone none of them could refuse to accept!

”After that incident, we were so scared we almost lost our Three Souls and Six Spirits. Rest for a while, we’ll tidy up!” Gu Changsheng looked around at the corpses and spoke to Shi Wujue.

Shi Wujue’s collapse at that moment was truly frightening, Gu Changsheng really didn’t want to see him like that again.

Gu Changsheng pulled Zhou Mu along, stepping over pools of blood and passing over the blood rabbit corpses and human bodies, heading towards the center of the fourth floor of the Star Innate Tower.

There, a spiral staircase was clearly visible.

When they reached the staircase, Zhou Mu reached for Gu Changsheng, glanced at Shi Wujue who was resting against the wall, and whispered, ”Let’s scout ahead first. Shi Wujue is too depleted. Let’s rest a little before climbing the tower again.”

Ta You was earnest about it; the next five floors of the Star Innate Tower weren’t going to be easy to ascend, and Zhou Mu had a constant sense of danger, thus he was extra cautious.

Gu Changsheng nodded upon hearing this, and was then shielded by Zhou Mu as they began to ascend the stairs.

Zhou Mu’s legs were long and straight.

Gu Changsheng watched as her evildoer walked in front of her, lifting her foot, yet her foot stopped in mid-air, unable to approach the stairs one bit.

”What’s wrong?” Gu Changsheng asked, seeing Zhou Mu retract his foot before her, her big Phoenix Eyes filled with puzzlement.

”I can’t step across.” Zhou Mu’s deep voice came.

”Ah?” Gu Changsheng was taken aback, in disbelief she tried stepping onto the stairs, bypassing her evildoer...

However, once her foot reached a certain distance, Gu Changsheng quickly noticed the peculiarity!

What the heck!

Her foot couldn’t move an inch!

Above this staircase, it was as if there was an invisible wall blocking their way forward!

”This... this... aren’t we being haunted by a ghost wall?” Gu Changsheng blinked her innocent big eyes. Now, she could only use this kind of supernatural phenomenon to explain the bizarre situation she was encountering!

Truly unable to go up the stairs!

Not able to climb at all!

”...” Zhou Mu heard this, a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes, deep as a cold pool. After thinking for a moment, he spoke, ”This should be the barrier mentioned in texts. We’ve not met the conditions to clear this level of the Star Innate Tower, so the staircase doesn’t open!”

”...” This time, Gu Changsheng was speechless.

”Zhou Mu is right. This barrier is called the Gate of Life and Death. To open it, one must either live or die!” Shi Wujue’s voice came from beside the wall, eerie and chilly.

”What do you mean? What’s meant by ’either live or die’?” Gu Changsheng heard this and immediately turned her head to look at Shi Wujue.

”Everyone in this fourth level of the Star Innate Tower, alive, the Gate of Life and Death opens. Everyone in this fourth level, dead, the gate also opens. That’s why it’s called the Gate of Life and Death!” Shi Wujue looked at Gu Changsheng, one eyebrow slightly raised, his world-defying face hanging a wickedly sinister smile, helplessly shrugging.

”Are you kidding me?” Gu Changsheng immediately jumped up at his words, raising her hand to point around. In this fourth level of the Star Innate Tower, there weren’t many alive, but quite a few dead. Those hundred people like Diluo Han, who entered before them, none survived; all were slain by the Blood Rabbit. Now you’re telling her that either everyone lives or everyone dies for the staircase to be passable?

Isn’t that just forcing them to commit suicide?

Only if they all die will this Gate of Life and Death open!

But if they all die, tell me, even if this gate opens, what use is it to them? Does it have anything to do with them?

This is really...

Seen some cons, but never one this absurd!

Gu Changsheng really wanted to drag the ruthless Ta You over, to give him a good thrashing a thousand times!

That man with a voice of desolate authority, Ta You, is simply inhuman; never seen someone play this cruel!

”So, are you planning to commit suicide?” Shi Wujue watched Gu Changsheng’s fluctuating expression, already knowing what she was thinking. He slowly stood up from the wall, tidying his black brocade clothes stained with blood, and spoke with a mocking tone.

”This game is too hard; why don’t we just die here and save ourselves the hassle!” Gu Changsheng spoke with a defeated look, feeling utterly terrible!

Damn, is there still a way to play this?

A hundred people have died in this tower level; now they say either everyone alive or dead, only then could there be a path forward. Are they sure they’re not joking?

Damn, I’d rather encounter the ghost wall!

The ghost wall is more fun than this; she could get frustrated and still find a way out. But now, you’re telling her, besides committing suicide, leaving their bodies lifeless, how else can they open this Gate of Life and Death, and continue to the fifth level?

Resurrect the dead hundred people?

Stop joking!

Gu Changsheng may be a doctor, not just any doctor but a divine doctor, but have you heard of medicine reviving the dead?

Gu Changsheng is entirely sure that Diluo Han and others are truly dead, dead for good, could not die a second time, so this is not a rescue but resurrection!

Resurrection is easy to say, just four words, but to truly do it is harder than ascending to heaven!

Gu Changsheng can only say, ”Forgive this incompetent fool!”

Zhou Mu’s profound gaze roamed over his own clueless little woman and Shi Wujue. In a blink, his divine face showed a faint smile.

Even though Shi Wujue said nothing, Zhou Mu saw from the smile in his eyes, a hint of mockery and confidence that everything was under control.

”Do you have a way?” Zhou Mu looked at Shi Wujue, asking in a deep voice.

”Yes, I have a way. But without it, should the City Lord die with you all? The City Lord cares for his clan, bears their life and death, cannot willingly die.” Shi Wujue spread his hands, looking cheeky.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng finally snapped out of Ta You’s absurdity and immediately pounced on Shi Wujue, kicking him fiercely, gnashing her teeth, ”You had a way and didn’t say it earlier, playing tough? Let me tell you, don’t think that because your background is pitiful, I would be kind to you. I’m a person with no sympathy; seeing others suffer makes me exceptionally happy! Hmph!”

”You...” Shi Wujue did not dodge Gu Changsheng’s kick, but hearing her words, his world-defying face first froze, then turned to deep helplessness, shaking his head, ”Indeed, the ancients do not deceive...”
