Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Shi Wujue’s firm answer echoed, leaving Gu Changsheng momentarily stunned.

Because, from Shi Wujue’s voice, she detected a hint of realization!

Something happened to Ta You!

And it’s not a small matter. If it weren’t serious, he wouldn’t have ignored the last three layers of trials, allowing them to ascend like this!

Gu Changsheng widened her Phoenix Eyes, scanning her surroundings, realizing they had indeed reached the ninth layer of the Star Innate Tower, now standing before the staircase leading to the top!

Gu Changsheng blankly gazed at the dim surroundings, not understanding why Zhou Mu, holding her, and Shi Wujue, both appeared so tense!

Having lost her memories from the sixth layer of the Star Innate Tower, Gu Changsheng didn’t know, but Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue were acutely aware that Ta You was the continuation of the will of Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness. How could someone so powerful encounter trouble?

What could have happened to him?

Standing before the winding staircase on the ninth layer, looking up, they were greeted by a sky sparsely adorned with stars and the towering Astrology Altar beneath!

This was truly a sky with scarce stars!

They had been in the Star Innate Tower for some time, unseen day and night, and now, upon seeing the day and night again, not a trace of joy arose in their hearts!

Silence, a pervasive silence surrounded them.

Within this silence, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue finally took another step forward, ascending the winding staircase leading to the Astrology Altar!

Badly injured Gu Changsheng, in Zhou Mu’s arms, only felt the unusually heavy footsteps of her own evildoer. Sneaking a glance upward, all she saw was his familiar and composed face, resembling a Divine Residence, yet clouded with worry, furrowing his brows as if burdened with troubles...

Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue exchanged a glance, and within the eyes of both, there was an indescribable concern...

Ta You, was the one most knowledgeable about their future path. If he was in trouble, who else in this world would know in detail about the Ancient Era?

Ta You’s abilities instilled caution in Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue, yet his presence gave them some peace of mind.

After all, in witnessing those inexplicable memories of the Ancient Era, all they faced was the unknown and fear. At such times, they truly needed someone who knew and understood those unknowns to exist!

That person could be Ta You, or anyone else, but that person best not disappear!

Because if that person vanished, it would mean no one in the world could give them even the slightest hint!

At the top of the Star Innate Tower, on the Astrology Altar, it was unusually quiet. In the middle of the empty platform, a Cold Pond reflected the starry sky, shimmering with waves, while all around lay in shadowy obscurity, except for a small kneeling figure by the pond’s edge, alone!

”Holy Envoy Child?” Standing on the Astrology Altar, Gu Changsheng, Zhou Mu, and Shi Wujue glanced around, and finally, Gu Changsheng couldn’t resist the eerie silence and softly called out to the kneeling Holy Envoy Child.

They had been with the Holy Envoy Child for some days, and Gu Changsheng was not unfamiliar with the child’s silhouette.

”You arrived too early...” The Holy Envoy Child’s hoarse voice drifted over without even turning, carrying an inexplicable sense of desolation and solitude.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s brows furrowed slightly.

She had interacted with the Holy Envoy Child and had a relatively good understanding of this child. Although somewhat naive to worldly matters, he wasn’t like this—aged overnight!

Gu Changsheng signaled Zhou Mu to let her down. Though injured, she wasn’t incapacitated and, especially standing on the Astrology Altar, an inexplicable oppressive feeling tugged at her heart. Where this feeling stemmed from, Gu Changsheng herself didn’t know.

”Holy Envoy Child, where is your master?” Gu Changsheng once again scanned her surroundings and asked perplexed.

Didn’t Ta You say he’d wait for them at the top of the Star Innate Tower?

Yet, surveying the area, only the Holy Envoy Child remained breathing?

”Holy Master...” Upon hearing this, the Holy Envoy Child, kneeling by the Moon God Pool, trembled slightly. His small hand gripping the poolside clenched involuntarily, with a choking sob in his voice, ”The Holy Master he...”

The words reached his lips, and the Holy Envoy Child finally burst into tears once more...

Since Ta You threw himself into the Moon God Pool, after crying once, the Holy Envoy Child had not shed a tear, but now, an inexplicable urge to cry overwhelmed him...

The Holy Master said that Gu Changsheng was another version of him in this world...

But to the Holy Envoy Child, how could Gu Changsheng be another Holy Master?

His Holy Master, whom he believed to be his world, would never return...

”Gu Changsheng, you arrived too late; the Holy Master is dead already...” The Holy Envoy Child sobbed, speaking slowly, as at last, he turned his gaze towards Gu Changsheng, an ominous gleam in his eyes, ”He is dead already, Gu Changsheng! Tell me, why did you come? If you hadn’t come to the Star Innate Tower, the Holy Master’s mission wouldn’t have been fulfilled, and he wouldn’t have died! He wouldn’t have died! You killed him! You killed him! Give me my Holy Master back!”

Even if the Holy Envoy Child’s voice was overly anguished, it forced Gu Changsheng to involuntarily step back, her bright face filled with disbelief...

”Ta... Ta You, is dead?”

Startled, her eyes widened, shock electrified Gu Changsheng’s heart.

In the Star Innate Tower, she had been through all sorts of bizarre, unimaginable experiences. She had envisioned various scenarios meeting Ta You, thinking she’d surely have a fierce battle with him atop the Star Innate Tower, to the death!

She foresaw the beginning, but ultimately did not foresee the ending!

Ta You, is dead!

Ta You, how could he die?

Because of me? Because of my arrival, so Ta You is dead?

The little Holy Envoy said so...

”It’s all because of you, the Holy Master prayed to the moon for fifteen years within this Star Innate Tower, just to await your arrival, Gu Changsheng. If you never came, how great would it be? You don’t come, and my Holy Master would not die either...” The little Holy Envoy gazed at Gu Changsheng’s familiar yet strange face, tears filled his small eyes.

This face!

It is this very face!

Our master has just such a face!

From the moment the little Holy Envoy saw Gu Changsheng, he knew that Gu Changsheng was the one his master had awaited for more than ten years, hoped for a thousand years!

But the little Holy Envoy never thought the outcome would be this way!

His master died before he ever truly met Gu Changsheng!

The master said that his mission was complete!

And the mission he has completed is now lying in his own arms...

The little Holy Envoy raised his hand, gently touched the Memory Crystal Ball placed on his chest, feeling the scorching heat from that Crystal Ball...

This is his master’s last entrustment to him, and it’s also related to Gu Changsheng!

This woman, who is equivalent to life for his master, ah!

The little Holy Envoy really wished she had never appeared in the Star Innate Tower...

But no matter how he thinks, Gu Changsheng is now standing just a short distance in front of him...

Tear stains still on his face, the little Holy Envoy turned around woodenly, looked again at the silent Moon God Pool, a bitter smile on his lips, sorrowfully said, ”Actually, how can it be your fault? Everything is destined by heaven, no one can be blamed...”

”Gu Changsheng, you came too early, the last gift the Holy Master left you is not yet molded...”

However, just as the little Holy Envoy said this, the Moon God Pool in front of him flickered unsteadily with light, and in just the blink of an eye, the calm water was no more, waves holding a small holy golden figure slowly rose from the pool surface...

When Gu Changsheng saw clearly that small figure on the waves, her Phoenix Eyes immediately widened in shock!

That small figure was too familiar, so familiar that Gu Changsheng could sense its existence almost every moment!

That plump little body covered with soft fuzz, two tiny antennas, four short limbs, the pearl-like round little body...

Manman!

The phantom of the Manman Bug residing between her brows looked just like this!

Only, the small figure in front of her is real, the whole body radiant as if born from heaven!

This is...

The Divine Body of the Manman Bug?

A thought suddenly rose in Gu Changsheng’s heart, and her eyes were filled with astonishment and uncertainty looking at the little Holy Envoy closest to the Moon God Pool...

At the instant this small Divine Body appeared, the little Holy Envoy once again burst into tears...

He watched with his own eyes as his master threw himself into the Moon God Pool, and now, what was reshaped from the Moon God Pool was a different Divine Body altogether...

His master, Northern Mongolian’s Holy Master Ta You, truly no longer exists!

Though when his master said he was about to die, when the starlight at the top of the Star Innate Tower faded, the little Holy Envoy knew his master was truly dead, yet seeing his master’s very body turned to nothing, the grief in the little Holy Envoy’s heart was still uncontrollable...

”Gu Changsheng, the Holy Master is dead, you won’t see him... He wouldn’t let you see him...”

The little Holy Envoy knew why his master chose to use his own body to refine a Divine Body for the Gu Bug on Gu Changsheng!

Because of that face!

The face identical to Gu Changsheng’s!

The Holy Master took away one day of Gu Changsheng’s memory, how could he let Gu Changsheng see his face?

He wouldn’t! Definitely wouldn’t...
