Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Landuoer knows that her Father King is already old, although he appears young. However, he is almost sixty years old!

The older a person gets, the more capricious they become, especially those in high positions, who often act without considering the consequences, seeking merely a moment of gratification. Even though her Father King is a wise and brave king, he is not exempt from this!

But Landuoer is different. She may not yet be twenty years old, but she has already mastered over half of the Tashi Tribe’s authority. Her Father King can be capricious, but she certainly cannot!

Because what she wants to inherit is a prosperous Tashi Tribe without hidden dangers, not a Tashi Tribe surrounded by enemies!

She does not wish to fall out with Gu Changsheng, nor does she wish to antagonize the Borjigin Tribe!

The favoritism and heart concerns of the Father King are the Father King’s matters, whereas she, Landuoer, is a qualified successor. Whether it’s in terms of the big picture or endurance, she is much better than her middle-aged Father King!

”Father King, my benefactor wishes to see Ta You. If they can’t see him, Gu Duoer will be in a difficult position. Gu Duoer swears on their life that they have no intention of harming nephew Ta You. If the Father King trusts Gu Duoer, please pass a message to the Star Innate Tower on behalf of your daughter!” Landuoer, still kneeling on the ground, slightly raised her head and looked at Tashi Huoding, speaking sincerely.

”Ah...” Hearing this, Tashi Huoding sighed, observing his youngest daughter knelt before him, his aged face showing inexplicable emotions, ”It’s good that you understand the importance, Gu Duoer, you must remember, Ta You cannot be moved. Don’t blame the Father King for making him a transcendent presence in the Tashi Tribe. You must realize that it’s precisely because of his presence that our Tashi Tribe can stand above the other tribes in the faith-divine Southwestern North Mongol region! Besides, he will never pose a threat to your position. He treats power as if it’s worthless, and even refuses to descend from the Star Innate Tower; how could he possibly threaten you?”

”Father King, what you said I understand. My benefactor must see Ta You, must see him!” Landuoer, upon hearing this, bowed her head again, speaking in a deep voice.

This time, Landuoer’s tone was extremely firm.

Had it been someone else speaking in such a manner before the Clan Leader, it would have been quite disrespectful. But Landuoer dared, and not only dared, she had the confidence to do so!

Landuoer knows that continuing this stalemate will not yield the desired result. However, things have reached this point, and even if her Father King suspects her, she must still strive for a resolution!

Gu Changsheng is a thornier presence than her Father King’s suspicion!

Landuoer knows very well how to weigh the importance of matters!

”Your benefactor must see him?” Hearing this, Tashi Huoding’s expression darkened again.

”Must see him!” Landuoer raised her head, her eyes full of determination.

”Can’t not see him?” Tashi Huoding asked again.

”Can’t not see him!” Landuoer nodded.

”Then let him participate in the Blessing Festival!” Tashi Huoding conceded, speaking with furrowed brows, ”It’s not that the Father doesn’t allow your benefactor to see him, but he has already sent someone to pass a message down the tower, saying that someone he’s waited for a long time will be visiting this Blessing Festival, and he’s preparing hospitality matters. It’s the first time in fifteen years that he’s voluntarily sent down a message. Do you think, even if the Father King is willing to pass on a message for you, he would see guests at this time?”

”Someone waited for a long time? Preparing hospitality? Ta You, since young, hardly acquainted with outsiders. Who could he have as a guest to entertain? He is obviously using pretexts, and Father King, you actually believed it?” Despite Ta You’s transcendent position in the Tashi Tribe, even though Landuoer holds no malice towards him, whenever her Father King regards his words as an imperial edict, there remains a faint sense of jealousy within Landuoer’s heart.

”Even if he’s using pretexts, he insists on not seeing them, what way do you have to reach the Star Innate Tower?” Tashi Huoding, upon hearing this, showed no fluctuation, speaking truthfully, he felt powerless about Ta You.

Especially regarding that Star Innate Tower!

The Star Innate Tower was built by him for Ta You, consuming countless copper and iron, its value comparable to the entire main city, yet after the high tower was built, he himself could only ascend it once a year, asking about fortunes for the coming year. During other times, those who trespass the Star Innate Tower face certain death, and no one has ever been able to ascend to the ninth layer of the Star Innate Tower!

Tashi Huoding’s words indeed caused Landuoer’s expression to change slightly.

Landuoer had never thought of having designs on Ta You. Even if Ta You’s status was extraordinary, even surpassing the Clan Leader, she had no such intentions! This was entirely because no one understood better than Landuoer that her nephew, who was about the same age as she was, was genuinely mysterious, not just praised by their tribe as having a spirit connection!

Landuoer clearly remembered, when her Father King brought Ta You back from the North Mongolia Royal City, Ta You said a sentence upon seeing her...

He said, ”Under Divine Mount Qilian, the Tashi Clan of a thousand years, today, only one usable woman remains. Truly, fate toys with us!”

When Ta You said this, Landuoer and she were just a few years old. At the time, Landuoer thought Ta You was quite showy, deliberately mysterious. But later on, reaching today, she, Landuoer, had become the second most significant figure in the Tashi Clan, aside from her Father King. Landuoer had no doubt that during her ignorance, Ta You, who was her peer, had already seen her future!

The Northern Mongolians devoutly believed in Longevity Heaven, and Landuoer was no exception. Ta You was someone protected by Longevity Heaven, a spirit communicator. She had sent people to challenge his Star Innate Tower, but what was the result?

The result was there was no result...

That tall tower, forged from countless copper and iron, shrouded in darkness, in Landuoer’s heart was almost a taboo-like existence!

In everyone’s heart, it was the place of Ta You, a servant of Longevity Heaven, high above, to be admired from afar, never desecrated!

”So Father King, is there really no other way?” Landuoer furrowed her brows, deeply troubled.

To let Gu Changsheng participate in the Prayer Sacrifice?

Even though the group of Gu Changsheng consisted of three highly skilled individuals, her nephew Ta You was not someone who played by conventional rules. What if something went wrong during the Prayer Sacrifice, wouldn’t her Tashi Tribe face a catastrophe?

”There’s no other way; you know Ta You. He has always disliked seeing outsiders. To meet him, one must pass his test and ascend the Nine-Layer High Tower, to become the second person, aside from me, who can meet him!” Tashi Huoding shook his head, helplessly said, ”Just as I am puzzled, who is coming for this Prayer Sacrifice? Who is Ta You’s awaited guest? Gu Duoer, do you know if he has any entanglements with outsiders during his long years on the tower?”

”Father King’s doubt is also daughter’s doubt. Nephew Ta You hasn’t descended from the Star Innate Tower for fifteen years, how could he have any guests?” Landuoer heard this, frowned, puzzled, but then quickly shook her head, saying, ”Father King, since only by ascending the tower during the Prayer Sacrifice can one meet Ta You, then daughter will inform my benefactor. Although, I will likely be accused of not being sincere in repaying kindness.”

”This is an unavoidable matter; Ta You is not an easy person to associate with.” Upon hearing this, Tashi Huoding nodded, then stopped Landuoer, speaking solemnly, ”The Royal City’s army approaches the outskirts of Tashi Tribe, eyeing fiercely, unclear of their intentions. Since you have brought the message ahead of time, you must make preparations early. Take the Commander’s Seal, arrange everything as you see fit, inform your benefactor, and head to the frontline immediately for timely response!”

As Tashi Huoding spoke, he took out a Tiger Talisman from the hidden pocket on his chest and presented it to Landuoer.

Landuoer looked at the Tiger Talisman before her, stunned, disbelief all over her face.

This Tiger Talisman allowed her to command all the troops of the Tashi Tribe, something she had longed for but never expected to obtain under these circumstances!

Especially since her Father King was still quite strong; this Tiger Talisman originally should have been passed to her much later...

”Gu Duoer, your father is old. In my life, I’ve cared deeply about two women, my first is my wife, and the second is your sister, Talan Zhu...” Tashi Huoding raised his hand, caressing Landuoer’s hair, his gaze lingering in the void, speaking with nostalgia, ”My Talan Zhu was the Ming Zhu of the Tashi Tribe, but to prevent our tribe from being dreaded by the Borjigin Imperial Clan, she willingly married away to the Royal City. It was my inability to protect her, sacrificing the marriage for twenty years of peace for the Tashi Tribe. Yet my Talan Zhu perished in the Royal City, the Borjigin Imperial Clan wicked, without tolerant capacity, cannot tolerate our tribe’s growing strength. If it weren’t for this reason, my Talan Zhu wouldn’t have had to marry far away. In the matter of Ta You, my conflict with the Borjigin Imperial Clan, the deep hostility, not without regrets and guilt towards Talan Zhu, but Gu Duoer, your father is old, cannot lead the Tashi Tribe much longer. I can quarrel with the Borjigin Imperial Clan for I stand in the elder’s position, scolding the son-in-law without rebuke from the world, but for you, it’s different...”

”Your father is old, face lost, but Gu Duoer, that Xiao Niannian, after all, is your sister’s only flesh and blood. Others might neglect her, but we cannot, I have already let down Talan Zhu, cannot again abandon her daughter. I heard Xiao Niannian is already on her way to the Royal City, and at this time, the Royal City’s army has come to the Tashi Tribe. Regardless of their intent, you must hold them back for me. They have come to my Tashi Tribe, they must not leave! The Royal City loses a fraction of their troops, Xiao Niannian’s safety increases by a fraction. This time, even if it means exhausting the Tashi Tribe’s strength, the army from the Royal City must have come without a return!”

As Tashi Huoding spoke, he grasped Landuoer’s hand, solemnly placing the Tiger Talisman in her hand, concern etched on his aged face...
