Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 1509: Chapter 1147: Do You Take Me for a Helpless Kitten?

No wonder the Hidden World Clan hates Gu Changsheng so much because, after remaining secluded for centuries, they finally decided to re-enter the Itinerant World for a big endeavor, only to run into Gu Changsheng, this wooden club!

If Gu Changsheng were a nobody, it wouldn’t be a big deal. They’d just kill her and dispose of her. After all, as members of the Hidden World Clan, who hasn’t done a couple of acts to cover up traces?

But unfortunately, Gu Changsheng is the Emperor of the Southern Country. The name ’Southern Emperor Changsheng’ is so intimidating that they can’t kill or harm her. Even a slight disrespect towards her would make them public enemies!

So what should the Hidden World Clan do?

This loss that the Hidden World Clan has suffered is truly monumental!

Swallowing a silent loss is the most suffocating, especially after Gu Changsheng used medicine in the tournament, and the Hidden World Clan risked their reputation by resorting to poison, yet it proved futile. The members of the Hidden World Clan immediately felt an overwhelming sense of hardship in life, a feeling only they could understand—it’s truly indescribable! It’s genuinely pitiful!

”The Nirvana Martial Contest eliminations continue! Draw lots!”

The host of the Nirvana Martial Contest stood on the stage, reminding himself not to look at the main stand, as he feared he might run over and beg the Southern Emperor to stop the contest!

On the main stand, Gu Changsheng’s phoenix eyes immediately brightened upon hearing the word ’drawing lots.’

”Here we go, here we go! It’s starting again! Little Chinese Cabbage, where are you? Haha... I love crushing weaklings the most!” Preparing to flex her muscles, Gu Changsheng was ready to demonstrate her Southern Emperor’s majesty today!

She felt the tiny bundle on the table, hesitated for a moment while looking around, and mumbled, ”So, are we using medicine today?”

Should we use medicine?

This matter of administering medicine, Gu Changsheng is quite good at it, but it has its pros and cons. Winning this way isn’t very challenging!

Let alone demonstrating her Southern Emperor’s power; it’s just barely acceptable that people don’t accuse her of bullying!

While using medicine can be considered Gu Changsheng’s special skill, on this stage, people prefer to see a back-and-forth battle, where combatants fight to the death with uncertain outcomes!

Winning quickly with medicine results in a quieter scene with no suspense. Standing from the viewpoint of an observer, Gu Changsheng considered this and realized she deprived people of the fun of watching!

Indeed, these spectators aren’t having it easy. To get up early for today, they probably went to bed early yesterday, even giving up beneficial activities for their mental and physical well-being. This morning, before having breakfast, they probably rushed here to grab a spot!

It’s really tough!

If she can’t allow them to watch a thrilling, breathtaking match, it seems a bit unfair!

After all, these people below are cheering her on with all their might, even if their supportive words are somewhat grating to Gu Changsheng’s ears...

”Gu Changsheng, can’t you just compete properly?” Borjigin Nian heard Gu Changsheng’s words and immediately spoke up, giving her a sidelong glance filled with unabashed disdain, then pounding his chest, ”Gu Changsheng, they used poison on you before, and you drank it like plain water, resulting in total loss for them. I assure you, if you dare use medicine again today, the elders from the Hidden World Clan might disregard your Southern Emperor status and not care about your connections with the City Lord and Shi Wujue. They’ll fiercely come after you to the death!”

Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but twitch at his words, looking down as she pondered the possibility of Borjigin Nian’s words.

Honestly, with the temperament of these Hidden World Clan people, they might actually do such a thing!

Fighting to the death?

Well, maybe not to that extent. Gu Changsheng really hasn’t done anything to deserve extermination...

”Gu Changsheng, listen to me, you should just go and compete properly. Think of it as gaining experience for future matches. You should at least leave people a little hope for survival...” But Borjigin Nian, with a sincere expression, clutched Gu Changsheng’s sleeve and pleaded, only her sparkling eyes revealed her ultimate intention was to enjoy a good show...

”Borjigin Nian, if you weren’t so eager for this, I might actually believe you have good intentions!” Gu Changsheng pursed her lips, looking at Borjigin Nian performing her act, and couldn’t help but expose her lies.

”Gu Changsheng, speak sincerely. My genuine heart can be witnessed by the sun and moon!” Borjigin Nian retorted, glaring upon hearing this. It’s undeniable that following Gu Changsheng for so long, Borjigin Nian’s understanding of the Central Plains language has steadily improved, subtly grasping the implications in Gu Changsheng’s words.

”You should say that to my Flower Peacock. I think he would appreciate hearing your heart that can be witnessed by the sun and moon even more!” With a casual flick of her eyebrows, Gu Changsheng mercilessly jests at Borjigin Nian and Yue Xilou.

The words indeed caused Borjigin Nian to blush deeply.

”You better compete properly, otherwise if the elders from the Hidden World Clan really get desperate, I, the City Lord, won’t help you!” At this point, Shi Wujue, who was watching with interest, spoke up while holding a teacup.

”What the heck! What do you mean? Is this how you sell out your teammate?” Gu Changsheng protested upon hearing this, pointing at Shi Wujue and accusingly saying, ”I live at your place, eat your food, drink your drinks; from an outsider’s perspective, I have a close relationship with you. If I lose, does it make you look good, or what?”

Darn it, without Shi Wujue’s help, her confidence to act shamelessly wavered!

God knows, if you really push those elders of the noble families to the brink, who knows what they’ll do...

Just thinking about it is frightful!

”Beauty, you eat my food, drink my wine, live in my house, I haven’t said anything about it. How dare you confidently use this to threaten me? Isn’t that rather inappropriate?” Shi Wujue said, feeling a headache coming on. He had truly never seen such a woman who talked nonsense yet made it sound so reasonable, as if all the truth in the world was in her mouth. Indeed, she had her reasons, and everyone had theirs too; it all depended on her words...

”What’s wrong with it? The ancients said, ’Thick-skinned people get to eat everywhere!’ I’m just that thick-skinned one,” Gu Changsheng replied, sniffing and looking as if it was completely natural.

Hearing this, everyone’s mouths twitched involuntarily. For a moment, they didn’t know how to respond.

Alright then, shameless people are invincible, a phrase suddenly crossed everyone’s minds in unison...

As they exchanged glances, a knowing look passed through everyone’s eyes...

Gu Changsheng, she’s not far from being invincible!

No, to be more precise, she already is invincible!

Everyone’s gaze sharply hurt Gu Changsheng, making her feel like she was excluded, as if she was utterly out of place...

Gu Changsheng felt the need to restore her sense of justice in existence, lest these people underestimate her!

The thoughts of the Hidden World Clan, sorry, whatever they think, Gu Changsheng truly didn’t care to put them in her mind.

The thoughts of the spectators, well, she could let them go in one ear and out the other, pretending not to hear or see!

But, being looked down upon by those around her, that was absolutely not acceptable, couldn’t have them thinking she was just someone who relied on trickery to win without merit!

Is she someone like that, Gu Changsheng? Although she kind of wants to be, she still has to say, damn it, she’s someone who wants face!

”Bang!”

With a slap on the table from her jade hand, Gu Changsheng stood up from her seat, looking down on those sitting beside her, domineeringly saying, ”Damn it, what kind of look are you giving me? Is it because the tiger hasn’t roared, you think I’m a sick cat? Today, I’ll show you what winning with dignity looks like!”

”Um...” Borjigin Nian was taken aback by Gu Changsheng’s outburst, staring with wide, bewildered eyes, hesitantly replying, ”Actually, you could also choose to continue...”

Gu Changsheng turned around upon hearing this, waiting for her...

A silent accusation!

Damn it, are you teasing me? Who was it just now that strongly advocated for a fair fight? How does one change their mind so easily? That’s not how you tease someone!

”Continue... continue being bad... openly bad...” Borjigin Nian, under Gu Changsheng’s glare, finally finished the sentence, and after saying it, she started laughing herself, pointing at Gu Changsheng, laughing uncontrollably, ”Haha! Yes! Openly being bad!”

”...” Gu Changsheng’s face instantly turned dark!

Looking at everyone around her who was covering their mouths with sleeves, struggling to suppress their laughter, Gu Changsheng’s heart was a battlefield!

What the...!

Despised, wasn’t she?

What’s happening? What exactly is happening?

All she did was use some medication, just cutting off any escape route, does that deserve such disdain?

Damn it, it’s a fight!

No matter what, she must prove herself, absolutely refuse to let those watching for entertainment have their way!

”Well, Southern Emperor, it’s time for the draw!”

The servant boy walked in holding the bamboo tube, just as Gu Changsheng’s face was dark enough to resemble charcoal, and seeing her like this, the boy was so scared he almost cried...
