Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1381: Chapter 1036: Walking Her Own Path!

Difficult!

Very difficult!

Given Gu Changsheng’s limited understanding of Ancient Martial Arts, wanting to breakthrough is truly challenging!

But, what kind of person is Gu Changsheng?

Never one to easily give up!

Since the desire for personal revenge ignited within her, since the passion to grow stronger flared, no one could stop her!

Thus, as thunder boomed persistently over the City Lord’s Mansion and Zhou Mu prepared to breakthrough, in the Heaven Deceiving Hall appeared the slender, elongated silhouette of Gu Changsheng, slowly advancing from initial helplessness to swift strides. It took her three days!

Three days, she transformed from a bedridden patient to someone capable of moving quickly like a normal person!

And she didn’t stop!

She continued to increase her speed!

This transformation from frail to swift astonished the Little Palace Maid Ling Xi who served in the Heaven Deceiving Hall!

Fast!

Too fast!

Although her Kung Fu wasn’t as proficient as Shi Wei’s, seemingly just an inconspicuous Little Palace Maid at the City Lord’s Mansion, being Shi Wujue’s Chamberlain, none of them were ordinary people. Even Ling Xi, this seemingly innocent and harmless Palace Maid, was an expert, capable of making waves if placed in shocking scenarios!

Even so, Gu Changsheng’s rapid transformation left Ling Xi astounded beyond measure!

From near-death and rebirth, akin to rejuvenation, and yet the Southern Emperor could adjust in the shortest time!

This shocked Ling Xi, because she had never seen anyone with such determination and resilience!

From dawn to dusk, rising from bed, on the jade stone paths of the Heaven Deceiving Hall, she staggered, fell several times and got back up, her speed picking up wind-like momentum, never stopping her steps!

Day after day! Another day! Yet another day!

She continued her brisk walk!

With furrowed brows, a solemn expression!

Leaving Ling Xi pondering over what she was thinking...

But Ling Xi’s duty was to serve Gu Changsheng, so seeing her feverishly racing with abandon, not even acknowledging when spoken to, Ling Xi grew anxious!

This isn’t a solution, if something happens to the Southern Emperor, Ling Xi would be beyond guilty!

Thus, as dusk settled, the restless Little Palace Maid Ling Xi finally departed the Heaven Deceiving Hall and approached Shi Wujue!

She felt it was more reliable to let her master know!

Despite Shi Wujue appearing unruly, he strictly adhered to principles of a gentleman. Though the Heaven Deceiving Hall was his domain, since Gu Changsheng resided there, it was akin to her Bed Chamber, hence, unless necessary, he truly never set foot here!

Was it avoidance, or something else, even he couldn’t clearly explain!

Just as he appeared in the Heaven Deceiving Hall, Shi Wujue’s gaze deepened upon observing the figure swiftly weaving through lush grass, darting past palace tassels...

This woman!

Her speed is truly impressive!

Even Shi Wujue couldn’t help but take notice!

Gu Changsheng darted through the Heaven Deceiving Hall, her figure reminiscent of a stream of light, leaving behind tilted flowers and dancing palace tassels, only a phantom remains, obscuring clear sight!

Such fervent pursuit? Is it because the battle at the Secluded Valley haunts her? Or has his scheming unsettled her?

Her untamed white hair danced in the breeze, as Shi Wujue stood on the edge of Heaven Deceiving Hall, his gaze quietly fixed on the obliviously rapid-paced woman, his face expressing indescribable emotions...

Conveying guilt, helplessness, and unwavering determination...

”Hall Master, the Southern Emperor has been like this for five or six days now. I tried advising her to rest peacefully, but she said she can’t remain idle, perhaps exercising could speed her healing! Hall Master, could this be problematic?” Ling Xi hesitantly asked, seeking help from Shi Wujue as she watched the phantom left behind by Gu Changsheng.

”Five or six days! You mean after Zhou decided to breakthrough, she made this choice?” Shi Wujue responded, his expression shifting to surprise and uncertainty, and as he spoke, a bitter, self-mocking smile emerged, ”Those two truly complement each other! Yet it’s good this way! Grow stronger, become even stronger, perhaps only then can they return...”

”Hall Master...” Ling Xi’s expression altered at his words, hesitating momentarily before asking, ”Hall Master, is it truly okay for the Southern Emperor to continue like this? I fear she’s racing towards obsession, not responding to me...”
