Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1029: Chapter 2976: Heaven’s Gate Temple, Traces of the Guardian Clan!

Ouyang Qing remained in place, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, and let out a long sigh of relief…

Just being expelled from the Three Great Families, thank goodness!

This outcome was already better than Ouyang Qing had expected!

You must know, Gu Changsheng’s dominance was now known throughout the Middle Realm, and this result made Ouyang Qing feel quite fortunate!

——

No one cared about what Ouyang Qing thought.

Gu Changsheng led the group away, heading directly towards where Sa Peak was…

“You know where Heaven’s Gate Temple is, right, Patriarch Mo?”

As Gu Changsheng walked, he turned back to ask.

Gu Changsheng knew the location of Sa Peak, but he didn’t know exactly where Heaven’s Gate Temple was!

However, it seemed that Mo Yang knew!

“I know!” Mo Yang nodded immediately upon hearing this, but his face showed a bit of hesitation…

Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, looked back at Mo Yang and raised an eyebrow, “What’s the matter? Is there a problem?”

Ouyang Qing said that when Gu Tianyao was in the City in the Sky, he only went to Heaven’s Gate Temple, so undoubtedly, the place that opens the gate from the Middle Realm to the Upper Realm must be at that Heaven’s Gate Temple…

But why was Mo Yang’s expression so subtle?

“…There’s something you might not know…” Mo Yang thought for a moment upon hearing the question, and then spoke, “That Heaven’s Gate Temple is in the Nangong Family’s territory!”

“Nangong Family?” Gu Changsheng heard this and frowned, “One of the Three Great Families of the City in the Sky, the Nangong Family?”

Gu Changsheng knew a little about the Three Great Families of the City in the Sky, but he didn’t understand what Mo Yang meant when he brought up that Heaven’s Gate Temple was in the Nangong Family’s territory…

“You might not know, originally the Three Great Families of the City in the Sky coexisted peacefully, and the Nangong Family always stayed out of other families’ rivalries, never participating in their schemes and struggles. However, the Nangong Family is also the most conservative, forbidding outsiders from entering their territory!” Mo Yang’s face didn’t look very good.

The Nangong Family seemed simple, but in truth, it wasn’t!

As someone born and raised in the City in the Sky, especially as a member of one of the Three Great Families, Mo Yang had a deep understanding of this.

“So? Does this mean we can’t go to Heaven’s Gate Temple?” Gu Changsheng asked, raising his eyebrows once more, “But isn’t Heaven’s Gate Temple open to people for offering incense, doesn’t it?”

“It’s not that; Heaven’s Gate Temple receives incense from countless families, so naturally, it’s open to everyone for incense offerings. However, when it comes to family interest conflicts, the Nangong Family becomes extremely guarded, protecting its territory. Heaven’s Gate Temple is in the Nangong Family’s territory, so if you want to find something there and they refuse… I’m afraid…” Mo Yang’s face showed a helpless expression.

If that’s the case, even as the head of the Mo Family, he wouldn’t be of much help…

Gu Changsheng had done a great service for the Mo Family, so emotionally and logically, Mo Yang couldn’t just stand by while Gu Changsheng was anxious about something, yet unable to help. But this time…

Since it’s the Nangong Family’s territory, Mo Yang really is…

Powerless to intervene!

With the Three Great Families of the City in the Sky becoming a bipartite structure due to this incident, if the Nangong Family gets involved and confronts the Mo Family, then the balance in the City in the Sky will truly be broken!

Honestly, Mo Yang, though glad to see the Ouyang Family lose power, never considered making the Mo Family the leading family in the City in the Sky!

The lone tree cannot support the wind!

The tallest tree in the forest stands alone!

These principles, Mo Yang still understood!

Especially since the Mo Family’s status was elevated due to Gu Changsheng. If one day, Gu Changsheng and his group leave, then the Mo Family would return to how it was before…

Everything obtained by relying on others is no more than a moon reflected in water, a flower in a mirror!

So, Mo Yang didn’t want to offend all the families in the City in the Sky because of Gu Changsheng!

One must admit, Mo Yang is a good candidate for a city-guarding family head, always thinking far ahead…

“I see!” Upon hearing Mo Yang’s words, Gu Changsheng eyed Mo Yang’s expression and understood what Mo Yang was thinking…

A slight smile curled the corner of his mouth.

Gu Changsheng didn’t find anything wrong with Mo Yang’s considerations, and with a smiling face, waved his hand, saying, “In that case, you don’t need to come with us. We’ll go ourselves! Just for incense offerings, surely the Nangong Family won’t stop us?”

If the Nangong Family does interfere, Gu Changsheng doesn’t mind nonviolent noncooperation!

Of course, as long as the Mo Family isn’t involved, it won’t become a vendetta between the Mo Family and the Nangong Family. Naturally, Gu Changsheng will pay attention to the ‘degree’ of things!

“For you to say so, truly makes me feel ashamed, but…” Mo Yang sighed upon hearing this, bowed to Gu Changsheng, and said, “Then I’ll wish you swift success and everything as you wish!”

To remain uninvolved is the best outcome.

Mo Yang wasn’t hypocritical at all.

“Hmm, my daughter and the people I brought are still in your care; just help look after them, and we’ll be back soon!” Gu Changsheng nodded upon hearing this.

Then, together with Xuanyuan Mu, he headed in the direction of Sa Peak as he remembered.

Since Heaven’s Gate Temple is on the neighboring mountain to Sa Peak, it should be easy to find; Gu Changsheng wasn’t worried about this…

——

Although it was just the two of them, Gu Changsheng and Xuanyuan Mu effortlessly found where Heaven’s Gate Temple was…

However, from entering Heaven’s Gate Temple to being led by monks to worship and offer incense, although Gu Changsheng wasn’t a devout visitor, through this routine, he and Xuanyuan Mu had almost explored the entire Heaven’s Gate Temple…

“Nothing! Nothing inappropriate! Whether it’s the incense-offering visitors or the monks of Heaven’s Gate Temple, there’s nothing inappropriate!”

After exiting Heaven’s Gate Temple, Xuanyuan Mu looked back at the still grand Heaven’s Gate Temple, frowning and speaking seriously.

“Yes, there’s nothing inappropriate, nor any trace of the Guardians…” Gu Changsheng nodded in response.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Mu immediately turned his gaze to Gu Changsheng, “Given that, why are you so calm?”

Xuanyuan Mu, of course, knew how anxious this woman was to go to the Upper Realm…

In such an understandably perplexing situation, Gu Changsheng’s composure was confounding to Xuanyuan Mu.

“Heh… Let’s talk about it later!” Gu Changsheng chuckled lightly, “But for now, it’s just…”
