Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

”You speak as if it’s true, I almost believed it!”

The people of the Hidden World Clan slayed the Giant Python?

When did that happen?

Forgive me, Gu Changsheng, for being uninformed, but I happen to have a good memory, and I clearly remember this matter!

”Gu Changsheng, what do you mean? Are you trying to deny the fact that you stole our snake skin?” Elder Yuh’s face darkened immediately upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words!

In fact, ever since Gu Changsheng saved Yu Lianyi, Elder Yuh’s face hadn’t been bright!

Looking at the daughter he discarded like a pawn following Gu Changsheng, Elder Yuh felt discomfort in every possible way, yet, there was no turning back. The deed was done, and it was irretrievable!

Moreover, after Yu Lianyi had done such a shameful thing, redemption was impossible, but that didn’t stop him from feeling uneasy!

”What do I mean? You tell me, what do I mean?” Gu Changsheng challenged, looking directly at Elder Yuh. After a long and tiring night, she was utterly exhausted, so she decided to have a proper confrontation with these Hidden World Clan folks!

”Elder Yuh, one shouldn’t deceive themselves like this!” Gu Changsheng’s eyes were full of pity as she spoke, ”I have no objection to you deceiving yourselves and playing dumb. You say I’ve committed robbery under false pretenses and disgraced the Southern Emperor’s name, and I don’t mind because I have no reputation to uphold anyway. Besides, it’s not like I haven’t committed such acts before! But truth is truth, and it can’t be covered up by your self-deception, right?”

”I, Gu Changsheng, though I am not afraid of people’s words, will never take the blame for something I haven’t done! Accuse me of robbery? Whose things did I take? Is this snake skin yours?”

Saying this, Gu Changsheng moved the pieces of snake skin in her hand towards Elder Yuh.

Seeing Gu Changsheng’s gesture, Elder Yuh instinctively took a step forward, his old eyes fixated firmly on the snake skin in Gu Changsheng’s hands...

Elder Yuh’s step forward was quick, but Gu Changsheng’s action of withdrawing her hand was even quicker!

When Gu Changsheng pulled back the snake skin, a hint of disappointment appeared on Elder Yuh’s face...

Meanwhile, after pulling back her hand, Gu Changsheng looked at the snake skin in her possession, marveling at it as she fondly rubbed it, ”Such invulnerable snake skin, considering the size of the Giant Python, it must have taken hundreds of years to become like this. What a pity, truly a pity, that I had to cut such a large piece off of it, tsk tsk...”

It’s really a shame; if she had better tools at hand, she wouldn’t have cut such a large chunk off of the snake skin. It could’ve been just enough to make a snake skin vest for her little meat bun at home!

But fortunately, there’s still quite a bit left on her!

As they say, fortune favors the bold. Gu Changsheng, who treats money like her life, rarely showed such generosity. When she saw the shame-stricken faces of the Hidden World Clan members, like ink ready to drip, Gu Changsheng felt a real sweet satisfaction!

However, in her heart, Gu Changsheng was quite puzzled—don’t snakes shed their skins?

Why doesn’t this Giant Python shed its skin? Otherwise, how could it end up with such a tough exterior?

This completely defies natural law, totally inexplicable!

But, Gu Changsheng only tangled with this for a little while before she let it go. Her resilient little heart had long been tempered by the bizarre world to be impervious to fire and water, and Gu Changsheng thought that if you told her the moon was actually a big pie, she’d almost believe it!

Not only the Valley of Forgetfulness, or the Intestine-Breaking Cliff, but the whole world seems to play by no rules at all!

Enough!

No point forcing it, anyway, she can’t change the world; she can only passively be an easy-going child, refusing to get caught up in pointless matters!

The people of the Hidden World Clan bristled at Gu Changsheng’s near-boastful actions and her obviously show-off words, their eyes reddening with anger!

A series of blazing glances swept over Gu Changsheng!

But who was Gu Changsheng anyway?

What scenarios hadn’t she faced before?

Could such a small scene make her admit defeat?

The answer was, of course, no!

Finally, Gu Changsheng briskly patted the snake skin in her hand, as if intending to pull the self-deceiving Hidden World Clan folks out of their delusion!

Damn it, they kept me in the dark and seemed to enjoy it. But if I’ve really used trickery and force, so be it. I won’t admit to something I didn’t do!

At most, I just picked up what was left. But, at least I stepped in to help!

Didn’t I?

”Elder Yuh, I’m not trying to say anything, but you should know how badly you were injured under that Giant Python. You couldn’t even scratch its skin with your combined attacks. Yet, how can you deceive yourselves into believing that the fatal blow at the python’s weak spot was your doing?” Gu Changsheng said, blinking her bright, innocent phoenix eyes at Elder Yuh and the others.

As Gu Changsheng finished speaking, Elder Yuh and the others were immediately startled.

Each of them showed disbelief on their faces, looking at Gu Changsheng as if she were a monster!

”You! What do you mean, Gu Changsheng? If that deadly blow wasn’t from us, are you saying it was you?” Elder Yuh’s face darkened, speaking with a mixture of suspicion and uncertainty.

”Bingo!” Gu Changsheng snapped her fingers as she heard this, looking at Elder Yuh with an open expression as she said, ”You finally got it right. Yes, the vital strike that pierced the python’s weak spot was indeed from me. If I hadn’t intervened, not only would Yu Lianyi have been severely injured under the python, but none of you would’ve fared well!”

Having said this, Gu Changsheng waved her hand with great magnanimity, speaking cheerfully, ”I don’t need you to repay me for saving your lives. Looking at you all around, you don’t seem like the grateful type! Forget it, I’ll just consider it a good deed for the day!”

What’s it called when someone ruins you without tiring?

That’s Gu Changsheng!

Gu Changsheng is eloquent, managing to insult without any dirty words!

This is a skill to be learned!

”Nonsense!”

But just as Gu Changsheng’s voice fell, Elder Yuh angrily shouted, raising his old finger towards Gu Changsheng, his face turning livid and trembling as he spoke, ”Gu Changsheng, stop spreading lies! We killed the python, and you’ve taken the python skin for yourself, twisting facts with clever words! If you return the python skin today, it’ll still be fine. If not... if not...”

Saying this, Elder Yuh anxiously looked around, as if looking for something to use...

”And if not, what will you do?” Gu Changsheng heard this and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, her demeanor arrogantly questioning what they could do to her?

”If not... if not... I’ll fight you to the end!” Elder Yuh was so infuriated by Gu Changsheng’s response that his liver almost exploded. He stomped his foot, resolutely asserting.

”Oh! You really scared me! Fight me to the end? You need the skills for that!” Gu Changsheng laughed at his words, her bright little face full of disdain.

Even though she had consumed some cultivation battling the giant crocodile and man-eating ants and felt a bit exhausted, Gu Changsheng figured that Elder Yuh plotting against her would still be quite difficult!

As they say, a starved camel is still bigger than a horse, and coincidentally, compared to Elder Yuh and his group, Gu Changsheng was that unshakable camel!

When Elder Yuh heard Gu Changsheng’s words, he staggered with anger and almost fell unconscious; Yu Qingqiu and Yuh Zhangzhu quickly stepped forward to help him catch his breath, looking at Gu Changsheng with gritted teeth!

”Gu Changsheng, are you bullying the weak with your strength?” Yu Qingqiu looked at Gu Changsheng with righteous indignation, harshly denouncing.

”Oh! It’s rare that you finally admit I’m stronger than you!” Gu Changsheng rolled her eyes at his words, but the next second, she was infuriated by Yu Qingqiu’s words!

Yu Qingqiu, seemingly unconcerned with Gu Changsheng’s remarks, continued speaking without pause, ”You just want the python skin, right? So what if I give it to you? I never thought the grand Southern Emperor would stoop to such trickery for mere material protection. I, Yu Qingqiu, am the first to look down upon you!”

For Gu Changsheng, being praised by Yu Qingqiu was akin to humiliation, but being looked down upon...

Gu Changsheng found it utterly intolerable!

She angrily threw the python skin to the ground and lifted her chin defiantly!

Pointing at Yu Qingqiu, Gu Changsheng was seething. With one hand on her hip, she angrily shouted, ”What’s up? The truth too harsh for you? You’re still deceiving yourselves? One wants to die fighting me, the other looks down on me! Who do you all think you are! Listen up, I’m keeping this snake skin. I’d rather toss it into the river to drift like a stepping-stone than give you a piece! Yes, I used trickery and force, so what?”

By now, she had said all there was to say, yet these people refused to believe the truth, constantly using her title as the Southern Emperor to suppress her!

So what if she’s the Southern Emperor, does that make her guilty?

Damn it to hell!

”And Yu Qingqiu, take back your words. I’m not to be looked down upon by the likes of you! Try using my Southern Emperor title against me, and I swear I’ll have you accompany the crocodiles and man-eating ants in the river within moments! Killing to silence witnesses, that’s something I excel at! I’ve never met anyone as shameless and stingy as you lot who hold your lives cheaper than your wealth!”
