Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Watching Alliance Leader Yong Qing leave, Gu Changsheng turned her head to look at Yong Shu, who was diligently escorting their group, heeding Yong Qing’s instructions. She smiled with profound meaning...

Alliance Leader Yong Qing thought that by sending someone named Yong Shu to stay by her side, she wouldn’t be able to make any secret moves?

This...

Is thinking too much!

Who said that doing bad things requires the person to act in person?

With a subtle curve on her lips, Gu Changsheng smiled quite mischievously.

”The Divine Weapon Convention is about to start... It’s getting late. Let’s leave now to avoid being stuck in the Smelting City when night falls!” Gu Changsheng made a decisive announcement after glancing up at the sun.

”Alright, I’ll lead the way. I know a shortcut through the alleys that leads quickly to the city gate, ensuring it won’t delay Brother Shui Mu’s important matters!” Yong Shu, an honest man, eagerly patted his chest and declared.

Although he knew this group was likely led by Gu Changsheng, Yong Shu, being somewhat of a man’s man, still instinctively deferred to the men!

Gu Changsheng knew this and pretended not to, aware that her partner evildoer had little sense of presence because he was naturally taciturn, a trait tied to his personality and unrelated to others!

”Then we’ll trouble you!” Gu Changsheng nodded.

Once they had packed, they finally marched towards the courtyard’s exit. Within the Mercenary Alliance, some had not yet gone to the Divine Weapon Convention. Those passing by couldn’t help but stop and watch Gu Changsheng’s entourage, carrying their belongings...

”Are they heading into the mountains?”

”I heard they accepted a commission to go deep into the Divine Mountain, Qilian. Hard to tell if they’re bold due to skill or simply fearless newcomers. Do they not know the dangers of the depths of Divine Mount Qilian?”

”So what? This group is anything but simple. You didn’t see how even our alliance leader couldn’t deal with them. I reckon they might just reach the depths of Divine Mount Qilian and find the legendary Divine Weapon Forging Tower!”

”And what of it, even if they find the Divine Weapon Forging Tower? Historically, how many experts have gone in and who among them has ever come out alive?”

”Hmm... I really hope they survive. They’re so young and already have such high cultivation levels. It would be quite a loss if they were to perish in the deep mountains of Qilian...”

”...”

An array of envious gazes fell upon Gu Changsheng and her group.

Their youth and promise were admired by others, who esteemed strength, yet beneath their words was a hint of jealousy — human nature, after all!

Gu Changsheng remained oblivious to the chatter around her, her face lined with a subtle smile.

Indeed, she wanted others to witness their departure, especially under Yong Shu’s escort, so when the Top Three Divine Weapons went missing, they’d already be far away, able to extricate themselves cleanly!

As for whether they’d actually come back from Divine Mount Qilian...

Walking along, Gu Changsheng sighed and looked meaningfully at the Baby Jin Bao in Yuan Bao’s arms, saying, ”Jin Bao... whether I return safely depends entirely on you leading the way. Know this: if I don’t make it out, then the place that birthed and nurtured you will likely bury you too...”

They were like grasshoppers tied to a rope, unable to escape each other!

Gu Changsheng still had high hopes for Baby Jin Bao, the local tycoon!

”Don’t worry! Trust me, I know the way!” Baby Jin Bao immediately assured, patting his chest.

As long as Gu Changsheng no longer planned to drive him away, everything was negotiable!

Baby Jin Bao was indeed deeply obsessed with Becoming a God!

”Let’s move then...” Gu Changsheng replied, contemplated for a moment, and the group reached the Mercenary Alliance’s entrance. Standing there, she glanced back at the towering gate tower and couldn’t help but sigh, ”Farewell, Mercenary Alliance!”

Regardless of whether they could return from the depths of Divine Mount Qilian, Gu Changsheng had no plan to come back here!

After all, those who have done wrong don’t willingly walk into the firing line!

Furthermore, it was contingent on their safe return from Divine Mount Qilian!

Should they fail to return, everything else would be moot, pointless!

Leading upfront, Yong Shu was oblivious to the dark red shadow slipping out from Gu Changsheng’s body as she left the Mercenary Alliance, vanishing swiftly from everyone’s sight...

Yong Shu, after all, was not Yong Qing; his cultivation level was shallow, leaving him unable to perceive Gu Changsheng’s phantom!

Indeed, even Yong Qing, with his level suppressed, might not sense the Flying Dragon Phantom, having already taken Gu Changsheng’s likeness and left her body!

Yong Shu was unaware, but Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue were well aware!

Watching Gu Changsheng’s phantom disappear in the direction of the Divine Weapon Convention arena, their faces showed a trace of concern...

Almost simultaneous to Flying Dragon Phantom’s departure, Gu Changsheng’s spirit became slightly languid, yet without close observation, the change was barely noticeable...

Back when Gu Changsheng left Linyuan City for Yanmen Pass, she became a transcendent beyond the Transformative Realm, having experienced an out-of-body Divine Soul. With time, she’d gradually gleaned some insight!

For instance, at this very moment, she could already peel off half of her thoughts, letting them follow the phantom and leave, possessing the consciousness of Gu Changsheng!

”Don’t worry, I’m fine!” Seeing Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue’s worried expressions, Gu Changsheng softly said while moving forward, ”They can’t discover me, moreover, even if they do, they can’t do anything to me!”

Gu Changsheng could already see Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue intending to release their spirit bodies, but it was just to snatch something; Gu Changsheng thought it was unnecessary to make such a big fuss!

She herself, familiar and skillful, should be able to handle it!

And in the worst case, there’s still the Soul-Devouring Python to cover for me, right?

”Be careful, don’t get hurt, and don’t forget you still have a Divine Soul Injury!” Zhou Mu said, stopping his actions, with eyes as deep as a cold pool, filled with worry.

”I know!” Gu Changsheng nodded, ”Stop whispering, don’t let Yong Shu notice anything amiss.”

Smelting City isn’t too big or too small, and it takes one or two hours to travel from the inner city to the checkpoint leading out of the city and into the mountains, passing through the entire Smelting City to reach the far end!

As Yong Shu led Gu Changsheng’s group through the streets and alleys toward the city exit checkpoint, Gu Changsheng’s phantom, like her alter ego, leisurely made its way to the Divine Weapon Convention’s stage...

Wherever it passed, it ignored all obstacles, disregarded all bustling crowds, as if walking on level ground!

This...

is the greatest advantage of the phantom spirit body over a real flesh body!

It’s virtually like a ghostly existence!

Moreover, it carries Gu Changsheng’s independent consciousness, indistinguishable from Gu Changsheng herself!

You have not experienced the feeling of transforming into a spiritual body, passing through walls and people, that feeling is simply exhilarating!

Anyway, Gu Changsheng was feeling quite content at this moment!

And at this very moment, on the stage of the Divine Weapon Convention, the host was announcing the list of the top three divine weapons from this convention, starting from third place, none other than the Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp!

”The third place in the top three divine weapons from this convention, is this Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp forged by Jiu Yu, which appears ordinary, but...”

Next to the host, a strong guy held a tray, and on the tray was that simple and unadorned Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp...

Listening to the strong guy’s introduction, Gu Changsheng slowly walked onto the stage, and the surrounding people didn’t notice her presence at all...

This made the corners of Gu Changsheng’s mouth curl up slightly...

”The second place in the top three divine weapons from this convention, the Flood Dragon Bone Divine Whip...”

”The top weapon in the divine weapon conference, the Dragon Awakening Soft Sword...”

Amid the host’s elaborate speech, Gu Changsheng had already walked onto the stage, standing directly in front of the host...

Facing him, Gu Changsheng could even hear the host’s heartbeat, yet the host continued doing his duty, completely oblivious to Gu Changsheng’s presence...

Gu Changsheng, quite cheekily, waved her hand in front of the host’s face, and the host didn’t even blink...

”Tsk tsk... Being a phantom is indeed happier than being a person! This feeling is simply too amazing...”

Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh. As long as she didn’t actively make the phantom appear, the people around her wouldn’t notice her, nor hear her voice...

Gu Changsheng turned her head, directing her gaze toward the elders sitting on the stage...

Alright then!

Each one majestic, exuding a sort of dignity, yet none noticed her presence!

This was the first time Gu Changsheng profoundly felt the superiority of having restrained power!

This is simply like an overpowered bug in a game!

Gu Changsheng thought, with her kind of power, not becoming a thief is indeed somewhat wasting her talents!

At this moment, for her, being a thief seemed so easy, like taking things from a bag, completely effortless!

Thinking so, Gu Changsheng acted accordingly...

Facing the front of the host, she slowly moved away, her guilty little hand slowly reaching toward the tray held by the three displaying strong guys...

Taking things from a bag!

She could finally experience this feeling of taking things from a bag!

From now on, should the title of Divine Doctor Gu Changsheng also come with the title of Divine Thief?

Her slender five fingers, seemingly transparent, slowly grasped the Seven Apertures Exquisite Lamp in her hand, and under the stunned gaze of the displaying strong guy, she slowly picked it up, but as she took it, Gu Changsheng’s heart tightened immediately...
