Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 995: Chapter 2942

Chapter 2942

“How… how did you know?” Catching his breath, Mo Yang looked at Gu Changsheng, asking with a face full of shock and uncertainty…

Hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched, “I’m not stupid; can’t I grasp the meaning of what you and Lady Mo were discussing in the City Lord’s Mansion?”

Matters like possessing treasures often attract trouble, and Gu Changsheng had seen it many times. As the saying goes, the unusual becomes ordinary, and Gu Changsheng really found nothing surprising about it…

Instead, it was Mo Yang and Lady Mo, who thought they had hidden things well, who couldn’t help but exchange a glance upon hearing this…

Since it concerned the Chart of Heaven, Mo Yang and Lady Mo had to be extra cautious…

But…

Looking at Gu Changsheng’s expression, she seemed genuinely curious, nothing more…

Nonetheless, Mo Yang and Lady Mo secretly pondered whether they should use some other valuable object to placate her…

“Alright, you don’t need to think about using any miscellaneous items to deal with me. I’m genuinely just curious. Curious about what treasures those standing at the pinnacle of the Middle Realm’s Pyramid, in the City in the Sky, truly possess. Of course, if you really don’t want to say, you don’t have to. I have no intention of forcing anyone…” Gu Changsheng saw their expressions and, after thinking, decided to speak.

Upon hearing Gu Changsheng, Mo Yang and Lady Mo mused for a moment before ultimately sighing.

“Miss, you saved my son’s life and did the Mo Family a great favor. Since you’re curious, I’ll naturally speak without reservation. You are right; Mo Yang indeed suffers for possessing valuable items, and speaking of this…” Mo Yang slowly recounted the three major families standing in the City in the Sky and the existence of the Chart of Heaven, as well as the current family rivalries within the Mo Family…

It had been a long time…

Mo Yang had not spoken of his family’s affairs to outsiders for a long time because the internal strife at home was truly nothing to boast about…

As Mo Yang narrates, Gu Changsheng nods and listens attentively…

By the end, even Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but shake her head and click her tongue, “Tsk tsk… I see, this Guoguo truly suffers for possessing treasures! City Lord Mo, you must know that it’s very likely that your son’s fall from the horse was orchestrated by someone, right?”

According to Mo Yang, the people from the Medicine Shop must be from the City in the Sky’s faction, so it seems too coincidental that the Medicine Shop used this opportunity…

Therefore, it’s very likely that Mo Qiyu’s fall from the horse was orchestrated by those who planned it…

“You’re right, Qiyu’s fall is indeed orchestrated by those people. But now is not the time to pursue them. I ask that you, Miss, help heal my son so that we can swiftly return to the City in the Sky!” Mo Yang said immediately upon hearing this.

“Yes, returning is good, but before that, I would trouble City Lord Mo to pay the consultation fee…” Hearing this, Gu Changsheng nodded.

While the Chart of Heaven appears to be extremely precious, to Gu Changsheng, it seems rather useless!

First, possessing something like this is already troublesome for a large and established family like Mo Yang’s. If it were in the hands of someone like her, with meager power in the Middle Realm, it wouldn’t just be troublesome—it would be life-threatening!

Therefore, Gu Changsheng wouldn’t recklessly jump into such turbulent waters…

However, seeing as they were nearly running out of food, the consultation fee was something she couldn’t do without asking!

“May I know what kind of consultation fee Miss wants?” Mo Yang instinctively asked upon hearing this from Gu Changsheng.

“Rules!” Gu Changsheng was immediately amused upon hearing this, moving slightly closer to Mo Yang with a mischievous grin, and slowly said, “Since City Lord Mo comes from the City in the Sky and holds such a treasure as the Chart of Heaven, surely… you have a pass that allows free movement through the major cities in the Middle Realm, right?”

This wasn’t a difficult request for Mo Yang!

“What Miss asks for, I dare not refuse!” Mo Yang thought for a moment and then nodded immediately.

Although those who possess passes for major cities are influential figures in the Middle Realm, as the holder of the Chart of Heaven, Mo Yang still had that little privilege…

“That’s good, that’s good!” Hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately smiled, sat back down, and leisurely continued, “My consultation fee is that one pass. Of course, if City Lord Mo is willing to offer some money as well, that would be even better, because I really don’t want to starve to death in the Middle Realm!”

People need food; after all, it’s an eternal topic!

To live, one must eat, right?

“…” Hearing this, Mo Yang’s mouth twitched, not knowing what to say…

It’s the first time he’s met someone who asked for money so unabashedly!

And yet, Mo Yang couldn’t say a word against it!

There was no choice; after all, he still hoped that Gu Changsheng would help Mo Qiyu recover…

Gu Changsheng followed Mo Yang and his wife back to the City Lord’s Mansion to remove Mo Qiyu’s stitches and instruct on post-treatment care…

Of course, Gu Changsheng’s appearance once again caused a stir in the streets of Riverwater City…

“Look, that’s the woman who saved the City Lord’s son!”

“From the Liu Jin Family, who knows what kind of luck Liu Jin struck to have picked up such a remarkable woman!”

“Isn’t it? I’ve heard her elixirs are quite powerful…”

“…”

“…”

As they walked along, there was much chatter on the way. Of course, there were also people from the Medicine Shop, who were more than a little sour…

However, Gu Changsheng didn’t take any of it to heart!

Gu Changsheng took action, and Mo Qiyu recovered very quickly. Three days later, Mo Yang and his wife set off back to the City in the Sky with Mo Qiyu. However, what made Gu Changsheng pleased was that before leaving Riverwater City, Mo Yang and his wife actually gave all the possessions in the City Lord’s Mansion to Gu Changsheng!

Liu Jin’s little courtyard…

Gu Changsheng sat on a stone step, cupping his chin as he looked at the courtyard full of stuff, his big eyes blinking…

“They really know how to be considerate! This is what I call being considerate!”

Finally, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but speak up.

“What do you mean by being considerate?” Liu Jin, still fixated with his seemingly lewd plump figure, squatted next to Gu Changsheng and immediately asked upon hearing this.

“City Lord Mo knows how to be considerate! Look at all these possessions; he can’t take them with him. Leaving them to me, isn’t he just making me owe him a favor?” Gu Changsheng tilted his head, nodding in amusement…

“…” Liu Jin heard this and said nothing…

So many things, one could say they’re worth ten thousand gold. Exchanging a favor from this woman for ten thousand gold?

Liu Jin didn’t find it particularly worthwhile…

“What kind of look is that? You’re just too immersed in this to realize my true value!” Gu Changsheng saw Liu Jin’s expression and immediately chuckled, then kicked Liu Jin with his foot, “Still not getting on with it? Quickly organize these Mountains of Gold and Silver for Ah Zi to buy some groceries. I fear I might linger here for a while!”

“You’re not leaving?” Liu Jin was momentarily stunned.

“I don’t want to die.” Gu Changsheng answered nonchalantly, yet it was a response to Liu Jin’s question.

At a time like this, where could she go?

Though Gu Changsheng didn’t want to admit it, she did indeed mess up some people’s affairs, so…

If she left Riverwater City before quickly improving her strength, it would be as good as signing her death warrant!

Staying here, there’s still the power left behind by Mo Yang and his wife to ensure her safety…

Only a fool would leave Riverwater City at this time, especially now that she has Mo Yang and his wife’s estate. Gu Changsheng has food and drink, and once her strength improves, it will definitely not be a problem…

“…” Although Liu Jin was not exceptionally smart, he wasn’t dumb either. Hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, he remained silent…

To be honest, Liu Jin was very happy to have Gu Changsheng staying in his home…

Because during the time Gu Changsheng stayed, his wife Ah Zi’s health visibly improved day by day, especially now with money and medicinal materials. Liu Jin never thought there would be a day when his wife would recover completely, and he felt very happy now…

And Gu Changsheng, staying in Liu Jin’s home, was also very happy…

Just occasionally hugging the Middle Realm Compendium, opening to the map page, looking at the many cities in the Middle Realm, wondering which city her evildoer and Baobao and Beibei were in? And not knowing what kind of life they’re leading…

No!

To be precise, not knowing how they’ve wrecked other cities in the Middle Realm…

In terms of causing trouble, Gu Changsheng felt that compared to her daughters, she truly paled in comparison!

…

After receiving the City Lord’s Mansion estate from Mo Yang and his wife, Gu Changsheng began her retreat and cultivation journey…

In the Lower Realm, Gu Changsheng’s cultivation level was suppressed by the Heavenly Dao like a tight curse. Once she reached the peak, no matter how much she practiced, her cultivation would not increase any further. But after reaching the Middle Realm, everything changed…

Upon arriving in the Middle Realm, Gu Changsheng felt as if her body suddenly became an empty vessel, eager to absorb the spiritual energy of the Middle Realm…

And the restraints of the Heavenly Dao here were obviously a step higher than in the Lower Realm. Of course, this step’s peak still fell far short of the Power of the Divine that Gu Changsheng once reached in her previous time-space, but even so, the strength of the Middle Realm was far superior to the Lower Realm!

“Oh my, Gu Changsheng, your cultivation speed…”

Liu Jin, watching Gu Changsheng come out to eat almost every day, couldn’t help but exclaim…

Gu Changsheng’s cultivation speed was truly fast!

So fast that Liu Jin was filled with wonder!

Bottlenecks that take others three or even five to ten years to overcome, Gu Changsheng overcame in the span of one meal, and that’s not all; her foundation was still very solid. This was evident, as three days ago Liu Jin could easily overpower Gu Changsheng, but now he was the one being easily overpowered by her…

“Oh, you’re too kind, who isn’t a genius nowadays…” Hearing Liu Jin’s words, Gu Changsheng…
