Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

”You don’t need to worry about anything else, just give me the other employment contract from the Jin Family!” After pondering a moment, Gu Changsheng gave such a reply to Alliance Leader Yong Qing.

Upon hearing this, Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s face instantly showed a look of utmost shock, and he hurriedly said, ”Giving you an employment contract is naturally not a problem, but Jin Luoyi is a wolf with wild ambitions. He is heading to the depths of Divine Mount Qilian to seek the Divine Weapon Forging Tower. If you go there, it’s a situation of nine deaths and one life! What is Jin Luoyi’s status? What is your status? Is it worth taking such a risk to deal with him?”

As Alliance Leader Yong Qing spoke, he was about to walk out, saying decisively, ”You just can’t stomach Jin Luoyi, right? I shall go kill that brat, so you won’t disregard the warnings and insist on finding some Divine Weapon Forging Tower, potentially implicating our entire Smelting City!”

Gu Changsheng did not expect Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s intense reaction, and was momentarily stunned. By the time he came to his senses, Alliance Leader Yong Qing had already reached the doorway of the hall.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng quickly flashed and shifted horizontally, blocking Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s path. Shaking his head helplessly, he said, ”Alliance Leader, Changsheng has heard your words in his heart. Whether for Changsheng or for your Smelting City, you can rush to anger like this, which is gratifying for Changsheng... It’s just that, even if you rush to anger, you may not be able to kill Jin Luoyi!”

”What do you mean?” Upon hearing this, Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s eyes widened with rage, ”What strength does that kid Jin Luoyi have? What strength does the old man have? To kill him is like squashing an ant! The old man can’t beat you, but does it mean I can’t beat him? Don’t look down on the old man!”

”Of course you can beat him, but do you understand the background of the people around him?” Gu Changsheng sighed helplessly and spoke.

”...” Alliance Leader Yong Qing was taken aback by this and thought again. There truly were three casual people following Jin Luoyi...

However, those three people, except for wearing veiled hats, appeared quite ordinary, with youthful stature, and Alliance Leader Yong Qing did not pay much attention...

Now with Gu Changsheng’s question, Alliance Leader Yong Qing suddenly discovered that he indeed didn’t pay much attention, but he truly couldn’t discern the background of those three people...

In martial arts, there’s a distinction in Inner Strength. Those with higher martial arts can easily probe the strength of those weaker than themselves, but those who cannot see the essence have only two possibilities...

One possibility is that the person has no Inner Strength at all!

But, would ordinary people without Inner Strength dare step into this Smelting City?

Of course not!

Then there’s only the other possibility, which is that the Inner Strength of those three is above Alliance Leader Yong Qing!

Thinking of this, Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s old face suddenly became full of color!

Inner Strength above his own!

Gu Changsheng’s Inner Strength is above his own, he has accepted that. Those accompanying Gu Changsheng are all prodigies, more powerful than himself, he has accepted that too!

Why is it now, even any Tom, Dick, or Harry he can’t defeat?

It’s a loss that he was just so vigorous and grandly wanted to kill Jin Luoyi, if it weren’t for Gu Changsheng stopping him, who knows who would’ve killed whom in the end!

Only heaven knows the awkwardness in Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s heart at this moment...

This is simply too embarrassing!

”So, you can’t kill them, and I also don’t want to confront them now to avoid implicating Smelting City. I want to find the Divine Weapon Forging Tower, which actually has nothing to do with Jin Luoyi. There is a very important item to me in the Divine Weapon Forging Tower, and as for wanting to trouble Jin Luoyi, it’s because I want to test those three experts beside him to see what their origins are and what their purpose is!” Rarely, Gu Changsheng slowly opened up and spoke frankly, resolving Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s embarrassment.

”An item very important to you? Is it truly important? Important enough to risk your life looking for it?” Upon hearing this, Alliance Leader Yong Qing deeply inhaled and asked sternly.

”Yes, very important, extremely important, risking my life is worth it.” Gu Changsheng nodded, smiled at Alliance Leader Yong Qing, and said, ”Don’t worry, even if something happens to me in the depths of Divine Mount Qilian, I won’t implicate your Smelting City, I will bear the cost alone! But, haven’t you heard a saying?”

”What saying?”

”A scourge will last a thousand years! And I...” Gu Changsheng smiled, raised a finger to point at himself, with a cheeky look, ”And I am that scourge! So, who says something must happen to me? Others can’t reach places, it doesn’t mean I can’t reach them. Places others can’t come out alive, perhaps I could hop out alive! Me, Heavenly Father indeed favors me dearly, my life is quite sturdy, I imagine it’s not so easy to kick the bucket...”

”...” Upon hearing this, Alliance Leader Yong Qing was speechless, looking at Gu Changsheng in front of him!

This is the Southern Emperor?

Is this truly Empress Changsheng of the Southern Emperor?

That woman who holds power over the world, unrivaled across the land?

The dignified Southern Emperor Changsheng, how could she end up looking like this mess?

Alliance Leader Yong Qing instantly felt that his entire life’s understanding had been overturned; he had never seen anyone so shameless!

”Go, go, if you want to go, then go ahead. If you don’t court death, you won’t die; you’re rushing to court death, who can stop you? But remember, you said your mishap wouldn’t implicate Smelting City, right?” Alliance Leader Yong Qing waved his elderly hand in disdain, speaking in frustration.

”Sure, I said it. How about I give you a written statement?” Gu Changsheng nodded, not hesitating to offer a promise.

”Let’s not bother with a written statement. If you die, Smelting City won’t benefit from it either! It’s more important that you come out alive!” Alliance Leader Yong Qing waved his hand again, this time without saying goodbye, just stepping around Gu Changsheng and heading out, saying as he walked, ”I’ll go find the most comprehensive Geomancy Map in the alliance for you. Although it doesn’t include the deepest parts of Divine Mount Qilian, it covers the peripheral areas, so you won’t take any wrong paths!”

Fuming internally, this time Alliance Leader Yong Qing wasn’t even afraid of the Soul-Devouring Python guarding the gate; he grunted and walked straight out...

Leaving the Soul-Devouring Python bewildered, its Snake Eyes full of confusion, not knowing why a meeting with its Feeder the man suddenly grew a backbone...

”Thank you so much!” Gu Changsheng responded, intuiting humor, shouting towards Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s disappearing back.

Alliance Leader Yong Qing heard the voice behind him, grunted without responding, but couldn’t help but mutter, ”Let her court death, leap around, youth is wonderful...”

Alliance Leader Yong Qing had once been young too, ventured to all corners of the world, who in their youth hasn’t been impulsive?

He knew that by this point, he couldn’t persuade Gu Changsheng anymore!

If someone wants to court death, really, no one can stop them, so he decided not to fret over nothing!

Alliance Leader Yong Qing left decisively, returning soon thereafter to actually deliver a Geomancy Map, along with a mercenary contract!

The employer of this contract was named Jin Hua, a fifteen-year-old boy of the legitimate lineage of the Jin Family. In terms of bloodline, he was nobler than Jin Luoyi, but his parents died early, making it naturally much harder for him to compete with Jin Luoyi for the position of Head of the Jin Family!

Gu Changsheng put away the mercenary contract and thanked Alliance Leader Yong Qing.

Although they accepted the contract, Gu Changsheng’s party couldn’t hit the road immediately. Not to mention Gu Changsheng’s Divine Soul Injury, even Shi Wujue’s condition required at least two days to recuperate!

Thus, early the next morning, when Alliance Leader Yong Qing sent word that Jin Luoyi had already departed with his entourage and the most experienced mercenaries of the alliance for Divine Mount Qilian!

Gu Changsheng wasn’t too worried upon hearing the news; duh, only foolish birds fly first!

Even if Jin Luoyi and his group departed earlier, what of it?

Do they have Baby Jin Bao with them?

Can they locate the Divine Weapon Forging Tower?

With Baby Jin Bao as a trump card, Gu Changsheng naturally had the luxury of being unhurried; she absolutely wouldn’t play games with Shi Wujue’s health!

Moreover, Zhou Mu wouldn’t allow Gu Changsheng to rush things!

However, during these two days of rest in Smelting City, there was still plenty to do because the Divine Weapon Convention was about to be held!

Despite Gu Changsheng being reduced to a dog thief due to Jiu Yu’s Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp, and ending up disappointed and empty-handed, she still hadn’t seen the real Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp!

Afflicted with Divine Soul Injury, Gu Changsheng was a bit curious about anything related to it, so she wanted to witness at the convention just what kind of divine relic the Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp truly was, plus, since it’s the Divine Weapon Convention, surely there’s more than just the Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp; with any luck, she might come across a weapon or two that intrigue her!

If that’s the case, Gu Changsheng genuinely wouldn’t mind following the example of their Southern Border ancestors—take what you like by force. So bold and imposing, so in line with Gu Changsheng’s style!

Thus, since two of their party were unwell and had to postpone their mountain expedition, Gu Changsheng finally dragged the somewhat listless Shi Wujue into the grand square within Smelting City...

Knowing Gu Changsheng was heading to the Divine Weapon Convention, Alliance Leader Yong Qing’s forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat, hastily dispatching his disciple Yong Shu to accompany them, under the guise of concern for Gu Changsheng and her party being neglected as newcomers—actually, fearing what kind of nonsense Gu Changsheng might stir up again, so he would be immediately informed...
