Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times-Chapter 663 - 507: Accidentally Injured Granny Wu Shan

Granny Wu Shan’s movements were sudden, she even dropped her skeletal cane onto the ground!

The incident occurred so quickly that even Gu Changsheng couldn’t react properly!

"Bang!"

A palm suddenly appeared from the side and slapped directly onto Granny Wu Shan’s chest!

"Evildoer!" Gu Changsheng exclaimed in shock, and then rushed towards Granny Wu Shan, who fell against the rock wall.

"Puh!" Hunched over, Granny Wu Shan cupped her chest and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood next to the rock wall.

The people of Bashu were skilled in witchcraft but their Inner Strength was often lacking, at least far inferior to rare masters like Zhou Mu!

"Evildoer, why did you strike out of nowhere! She meant no harm! I didn’t sense any malice!" Gu Changsheng frantically helped Granny Wu Shan halfway up, and turned to Zhou Mu with a disapproving expression.

Zhou Mu was stunned by the words, and his slapping hand stiffened, "This prince... it was just instinct..."

It was purely an instinctual reaction! Granny Wu Shan was unfathomable! Seeing her lunging at Gu Changsheng, he had no time to think and instinctively struck!

He couldn’t allow Changsheng to be injured, not even the slightest possibility!

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng reluctantly shook his head and looked at Granny Wu Shan leaning against him.

"How dare you! How dare you injure Granny!" A roar came from the Bridgehead of the Heavenly Road, and a dozen shadows suddenly surged towards them.

The situation was about to explode!

"Stop... stop! Cough cough!" An elderly voice rang out, successfully stopping the attackers in their tracks.

"Granny!" The black-clad subordinates, upon hearing this, let out an unwilling roar.

Yet Granny Wu Shan ignored them, still gazing intently at Gu Changsheng in front of her, her wrinkled hand trembling as it reached up to touch Gu Changsheng’s face, her lips parting as if she wanted to speak.

"Granny, don’t talk!" Seeing this, Gu Changsheng quickly intervened, pulled out a porcelain vial from his person, poured out a medicinal pill and stuffed it into Granny Wu Shan’s mouth, placing his hand on her back, and his gentle Inner Strength immediately flowed from his palm into Granny Wu Shan.

Damn it, he had just made an agreement with Granny Wu Shan, and if Zhou Mu killed her with a slap, who would he reason with?

Theoretically, Zhou Mu’s palm strike shouldn’t have injured Granny Wu Shan so badly, but who could have expected its timing, when Granny Wu Shan lunged unprotected!

She couldn’t die, else the agreement would fall through. If Granny Wu Shan died, the charge of killing Subordinates of the Witch Master of Bashu would definitely stick, and it would be good enough if they didn’t wage war against them, let alone asking for a passage!

As the medicinal power spread, Granny Wu Shan’s complexion slightly improved, withdrawing her hand but getting even closer to Gu Changsheng’s cheek instead.

"This face... this mark..."

At these words, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but frown.

What about this face? And what about this mark?

On the contrary, Zhou Mu, looking thoughtful, moved closer, bent down, and placed his large hand on Granny Wu Shan’s shoulder, his Inner Strength following the flow.

"You... you look so much like your Queen Mother... just like her..." Granny Wu Shan’s hand finally touched Gu Changsheng’s cheek, carefully caressing it as if touching a precious treasure.

The wrinkled old face showed a trace of bewilderment and reminiscence, her cloudy old eyes as if seeing another person through Gu Changsheng...

Queen Mother?

At these words, Gu Changsheng’s heart trembled violently, a flash of shock passing through his eyes as the flow of his Inner Strength grew more urgent.

She indeed resembled someone, that person being the biological mother of her current body, also the woman in red from that painting!

Queen Mother? Not mother? How could it be Queen Mother?

Whenever it involved the word "emperor," nothing good came of it. Suddenly, Gu Changsheng felt that her origins might not be as simple as just being from the former Imperial Family of the Southern Border, there seemed to be something more complex...

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged glances, both realizing something in their eyes.

Clearly, Granny Wu Shan was an acquaintance of Gu Changsheng’s mother!

Therefore, she couldn’t die!

"Similarly fond of wearing red, similarly cold and noble..." Granny Wu Shan’s complexion got even better, her hand, like a dry branch, continued caressing Gu Changsheng’s cheek incessantly. frёeωebɳovel.com

The sensation was a bit itchy, a bit bitter, yet Gu Changsheng felt a touch of fondness...

"I’ve been living seclusively at the Bridgehead of the Heavenly Path for twenty-two years, finally... I’ve waited... Good! Very good! Heaven hasn’t forsaken the Phoenix Lineage! Southern Border! Southern Border! I finally have the face to return to the Southern Border! I must go to the Southern Border!"
