The Peerless Physician: The Ghost Emperor's Cunning Concubine Chapter 1: Past and Present <<< >>>

The flames illuminated the entire night, as bright as day. A deafening boom echoed once more, this time engulfing the entire forest.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old, with an impassive face, retracted the eerie flames from his palm and darted out of a corner in the base, moving as lightly as a cat, without making a sound.

Its speed was incredible, leaving only a dark shadow at night.

Hurry up, faster, or we'll be caught!

What are you going to do with it? Keep doing experiments, keep soaking medicine...experiments, keep soaking medicine...murder...

"No, I absolutely cannot go back!"

The icy base building emitted a series of cracking sounds as a dozen figures gave chase.

Number thirteen, don't stop, die!

"Number thirteen, stop!"

……

His shadow flitted like a ghost through the woods, his feet already bleeding, staining the plants he passed.

But I don't know if it was mine or someone else's, after all, it felt like it just came out of a fish tank, from top to bottom.

Wearing a white patient gown, his pale face made everything look incredibly eerie, like a broken doll.

A crisis came from behind, and she tilted her head slightly. A gust of wind slashed past, severing a strand of hair as it sliced through the lazy trunk of the tree in front of her.

Turning back and pushing forward, a glacial flame shot from her palm, striking the ten or so people behind her.

A couple of cries of agony echoed out.

"What a masterpiece! Truly worthy of being numbered thirteen, a perfect work." A man shot out streams of water from his hand, extinguishing all the flames.

He took a slight step back with his eyes wide.

"Number thirteen, get back with us." The man narrowed his eyes, releasing a dangerous aura.

He gasped, his voice hoarse from disuse. With a trembling hand, he made a feeble threat: "No... take me with you. Let's die together..."

The man's face turned cold, his hands no longer sending out streams of water but crackling with purple lightning. He moved with an elegant grace, taking measured steps toward...

"Number thirteen, you spent too much time being trained by them. They wanted to mold you into a killing machine. Now, you finally possess the qualified ability and even awakened the gift of divine healing. You tell me, can I let you go?"

He took two steps back, his eyes flickering as he looked at the lightning.

Recognizing him, time and again when trying to escape, he used lightning to knock him unconscious. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The man stepped closer, suddenly lifting his mask to reveal a stunningly handsome face. "Now you have two choices," he said. "First, come back with me and be mine. Second, I'll take you back to the base and throw you into the death cell again. This time, I guarantee you won't escape."

Bowing his head, seemingly deep in thought.

But the next second, she suddenly rushed towards the man, with incredible speed.

After a few moves, a flash of lightning appeared, and she fell into the man's arms.

"If I had known it was like this, why bother wasting my effort... uh..."

The man's handsome smile froze, his head bowed low. His hand reached out, as if to pluck his heart from his chest.

Instead of fainting under his thunderbolt, she pretended to fall into his arms and then seized the opportunity to kill him.

"Boss!" Everyone was shocked.

"Kill him!" Several supers encircled him.

At this moment, a large fire erupted from above and spread outwards, engulfing everyone within its radius.

……

This night, the base's top dozen or so extraordinary beings, including, All-Burning Sea, caused a worldwide sensation.

But what no one knows is that, after death, the soul suddenly appears in a completely new world. This world is called the Xuanwu Continent.
