Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1400: Chapter 1053: Only Those Without Desire Are Truly Fearsome

”They’ve even counted me, Northern Mongolian, in!”

After Borjigin Nian said this, his face dimmed a bit, and his hand hidden beneath his sleeve gradually clenched.

”Borjigin Nian!” Gu Changsheng stepped forward upon seeing this, reached out, covering Borjigin Nian’s clenched fist with his hand. His bright face carried a confident expression as he raised an eyebrow at Borjigin Nian and said in a deep voice, ”Borjigin Nian, dancing with wolves, bargaining with tigers, we’ve never done such things. Are you willing to give it a try?”

The wolf and tiger Gu Changsheng referred to were not Dugu Jieao!

That old geezer Dugu Jieao, not significant enough to make them so wary!

After all, they still had Zhou Mu, who by now was already an adept in the Primordial Transformative Realm!

She was referring to the mastermind behind the scenes! The one playing them like pawns!

”Do it! Why not? Life and death are certain, wealth is in the heavens. I, Borjigin Nian, born to this Northern Mongolian position, whoever dares move against my Northern Mongolian, I’ll fight them to the death!” Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian said resolutely!

Looking into each other’s eyes, the two exchanged a glance, raised their fists simultaneously, and with a tacit understanding, bumped fists, and then clenched tightly!

”Fight to the death!”

”Fight to the death!”

Both spoke simultaneously, their expressions defiant and proud!

Do you have such a friend who shares both fortune and disaster with you, who never leaves nor forsakes you?

Do you have such a friend who follows you regardless of right or wrong, shares joys and sorrows with you?

Gu Changsheng suddenly felt that the path forward wasn’t as terrifying anymore!

At least, she had such a friend accompanying her, alongside her family!

Whether fortune or disaster, she would never be alone!

”Women, indeed are creatures who don’t use their brains! As the Tower Master, I’ve truly gained knowledge!”

Just as Gu Changsheng and Borjigin Nian were whispering in the corridor, an untimely voice abruptly interrupted their intimate exchange!

”Yue Xilou! Yue Xilou, how dare you come!” As soon as Borjigin Nian heard Yue Xilou’s voice, he instantly bristled, turning his head immediately. At the corner of the corridor, a flash of flamboyant clothes appeared, and Yue Xilou’s beauty, more enchanting than an evildoer, instantly came into view of the two women.

Yue Xilou glanced at Borjigin Nian, a tinge of conflict flashing in his eyes, and then looking at Gu Changsheng, his perfectly beautiful brow slightly furrowed, ”Outside, because of the Northern Mongolian matter and the Hidden World Clan’s Nirvana Martial Contest, the city is in upheaval, yet you two, as the ones involved, are here indulging in flirting!”

Flirting!

Flirting!

Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but want to laugh upon hearing this term!

What could she say?

Say that her Flower Peacock was in sync with her?

She had clearly been thinking of how Yue Xilou had barged in, breaking the atmosphere and interrupting her and Borjigin Nian’s relationship!

What she thought came true, Yue Xilou indeed gave such a response!

”Hey! Flower Peacock, are you jealous?” Gu Changsheng immediately discarded her sentimental expression and with a mischievous smile, raised an eyebrow at Yue Xilou and spoke.

”Jealous? Ridiculous!” Yue Xilou flicked his colorful sleeve at her words, unconcerned, ”I, as the City Lord, came to tell you, girl, don’t think just because Zhou Mu conquered the Transformative Realm, you can rest easy. The thousand-year foundation of the Hidden World Clan is not to be underestimated! Do you think everyone in the Hidden World Clan is like Yu Qingqiu, whom you encountered in Licheng City, incompetent?”

”...” Gu Changsheng was rendered speechless by Yue Xilou’s words, exchanging a glance with Borjigin Nian, they both pouted simultaneously.

”I, the Tower Master, worry you’ll lose too miserably and disgrace me, so I specially came to watch the commotion!” Yue Xilou said with a slightly unnatural cough, his demeanor arrogant.

”Flower Peacock, is your mouth like a crow? Pfft pfft pfft, curse the bad and bless the good! I pretend I didn’t hear! Watch how I’ll beat those young talents from the Hidden World Clan until they can’t find their teeth!” Gu Changsheng said, immediately putting her hands on her waist upon hearing this.

”Humph! Overestimating yourself! I, the Tower Master, am waiting to see you cry!” Yue Xilou huffed, turned around, and walked away. As he walked, he said, ”Can you two be more cautious when you speak in the future? After all, this isn’t the Heavenly Palace, be careful of eavesdroppers!”

”Eavesdroppers? Whose ears?” Gu Changsheng and Borjigin Nian, seeing this, quickly followed and asked.

Yue Xilou turned back and gave them a knowing look.

”Haha!” Gu Changsheng received his look and immediately laughed, pointing at Yue Xilou, rocking with laughter, she said, ”I said he was jealous, didn’t I? Indeed! This is the City Lord’s Mansion, even if there are eavesdroppers, they would be Shi Wujue’s subordinates. Flower Peacock, tell me, did you see Shi Wujue looking handsome and feel envy, jealousy, and hatred? Hahaha...”

”Hmph!” Yue Xilou heard this and his expression immediately soured, he turned his head, ”I don’t bother with you! For the time being, there’s no news from the Itinerant World’s people infiltrating from Northern Mongolian, however, Manor Master Liu Fengyun of Wind Cloud Mountain Villa is about to arrive at Linyuan City!”

Saying this, Yue Xilou paused slightly, frowned, and sighed silently, speaking, ”Itinerant World Wind Cloud Mountain Villa, Linyuan City’s Lord Shi Wujue, Hidden World Clan, Southern Country’s Emperor Changsheng, Great Zhou’s Crown Prince Mu, Northern Mongolian’s Legitimate Princess, now, Linyuan City can be considered a gathering of heroes, encapsulating the world’s talents...”

Gu Changsheng and Borjigin Nian halted in their steps, frowning slightly upon hearing this.

Her lips twitched, and Gu Changsheng’s expression became slightly unnatural, ”Flower Peacock, what do you mean?”

Why did it seem that she detected a hint of worry in Flower Peacock’s tone?

”What do I, the Tower Master, mean?” Yue Xilou responded, looking steadily at Gu Changsheng, he said in a deep voice, ”I, the Tower Master, just want to tell you, girl, if you want to unite the world with that kid Zhou Mu, now is the best time! All the world’s heroes are gathered here in Linyuan City, you only need to sweep up the heroes gathered here, and united world becomes readily obtainable, and your name Changsheng will be forever recorded in history!”

Gu Changsheng’s eyes changed slightly upon hearing this.

Yue Xilou paused for a moment here, then smirked slightly with a hint of sarcasm, ”Of course, that also requires you to have the ability to make waves in Linyuan City! I, the Tower Master, am just reminding you that the local tycoon here is ultimately not you, always keep an eye out not to be swept up by others! After all... a strong dragon doesn’t suppress a local tycoon!”

”You...” Gu Changsheng trembled upon hearing this, looking at Yue Xilou with disbelief.

Yue Xilou’s warnings were already so clear, if Gu Changsheng still couldn’t understand, then she’d be like a wooden club!

Shi Wujue!

The name and actual king of Linyuan City, was Yue Xilou warning her to be wary of him?

”Flower Peacock, are you overthinking?” Gu Changsheng asked somewhat hesitantly, ”If Shi Wujue really had ambitions to dominate, he wouldn’t wait until now, his martial arts are unfathomable, even surpassing evildoer, if he truly had such intentions, he wouldn’t go all out to save me, nor give the Spiritual Treasure to evildoer...”

”Girl, I, the Tower Master, after traversing the Itinerant World for many years, understand one truth, unsolicited kindness is either deceit or theft! Shi Wujue did save you, helped you, but to be frank, if he insisted on taking you from Zhou Mu, I wouldn’t be as worried, after all, loving his kingdom rather than beauty is a reasonable explanation, but he didn’t! People are imperfect, those who seek have desires, but those who have no desires are truly formidable! Girl, don’t be blinded by gratitude and lose your rationality!” Yue Xilou turned back, looking at Gu Changsheng and Borjigin Nian, speaking solemnly.

Gu Changsheng shook her head dumbly upon hearing this, ”No way! He’s not that kind of person! He and Zhou Mu, like me, are people born with pride, I can’t stoop low, neither could he! Flower Peacock, you’re overthinking!”

”Hehe...” Yue Xilou laughed upon hearing this.

”Flower Peacock! Don’t be that way! I never doubt the people around me!” Gu Changsheng was somewhat rattled by Yue Xilou’s laughter, her expression darkened, determinedly she said, ”As you said, Linyuan City is a gathering of heroes of the world, even I, Zhou Mu, and you are trapped, if Shi Wujue truly had wicked intentions, then during the Nirvana Martial Contest, that would be the best opportunity! I bet with you, he absolutely wouldn’t do anything! He’s not that kind of person!”

”Alright! I, the Tower Master, bet with you! The City Lord has already assembled all members of the Assassins’ Pavilion outside Linyuan City, just as a precaution, girl, if Shi Wujue truly has ambitions, I want you to immediately abandon everything and head south with the City Lord! Never step north again!” Yue Xilou responded promptly, finally turning his gaze to Borjigin Nian, speaking solemnly, ”You too! The chaos in Northern Mongolian is unusual, I, the Tower Master, feel that even if you return, you’ll only be going to the tiger’s mouth!”

”I...” Borjigin Nian was stunned upon hearing this, pointing to herself in disbelief. She did not expect Yue Xilou would make such arrangements at this moment!

He was actually letting her give up Northern Mongolian, disregarding her Father King?

”Yue Xilou, what do you mean? You’re backing out! You cowardly scoundrel!” Borjigin Nian immediately got angry, aimed a kick at Yue Xilou.

Meanwhile, Gu Changsheng watched Yue Xilou with a perplexed expression, seemingly pondering.

”You! Borjigin Nian, stop making trouble!”

The colorful clothing floated in the air, making Yue Xilou somewhat embarrassed due to Borjigin Nian’s antics.

Gu Changsheng watched the chaos coldly, her brow furrowed, and after a while, hesitantly said, ”Flower Peacock, did you find something out? Are you really suspecting Shi Wujue or do you know something else and are wary?”
