The Medical Elder nodded, "We have healed all her physical wounds, but she is getting more and more depressed with each passing day. She isn't eating or drinking properly either."
"Why didn't you inform me about this earlier?" Max asked, a chill seeping in his voice.
"When she woke up, she asked about you and we told her you were alright and were in secluded cultivation so she wouldn't worry. Then, as her mental health began to deteriorate, she asked us not to tell you anything. Moreover, Elder Milo told me you weren't ready to see her yet." responded the Medical Elder calmly.
"Is she awake?" asked Max, not in the mood to care whether his tone had been rude let alone apologize for it.
"Yes, she is." nodded the Medical Elder.
Swoosh!
Max rushed in as soon as he saw her nod.
After the doors closed after him, the female disciple standing beside the Medical Elder muttered under her breath, but loud enough for her master to hear, "What an ill-mannered person."
