Chapter 1357
Maxine quickly got up and grabbed Thea’s wrist to check her pulse. The moment her skin made contact with Thea’s, she felt a biting cold from Thea’s arm,
She endured the chill and swiftly checked Thea’s pulse.
After assessing Thea’s condition, Maxine furrowed her eyebrows and exclaimed, “What happened? How did you get so severely injured?”
Thea took a tissue out of her pocket, wiped the blood from her lips, and said weakly, “Simon hit me with a palm thrust when we fought.
He had refined the Spirit Turtle’s core, and he got significantly stronger. However, he was cautious because he mistook me for Thomas.
That’s likely why he fled the battle. If that hadn’t happened, I probably wouldn’t have made it out alive.”
Thea hurried back to the Capital after momentarily closing up her injuries in the viscinity of Mount Thunder Sect because she knew it was unsafe to continue staying there.
She could only recuperate in the safety of the Capital.
As she journeyed back, she endured the pain and pretended to be a regular tourist. However, the injuries took a toll on her when she arrived home and she was no longer able to withstand the pain.
“Your injuries are greivous. You’ll need to spend a lot of time resting in order for them to get better. Otherwise, the consequences will be grave.”
Maxine pressed her thumb against her lip before saying, “I’ll prescribe a formula to help accelerate your healing.”
Thea gently shook her head and moved her hand away. “Ordinary medicine isn’t going to be effective on my injuries. Don’t worry about it. I’ll come up with a way to treat them. I’m going back to my room first.”
Thea got up and wanted to leave but was immediately overcome with vertigo the moment she stood up. Waves of intense pain washed over her, and she fell helplessly onto the chair.
Maxine shook her head. She reached out to help Thea up and carry her suitcase.
“Get the hell away from my stuff!!!”
Thea’s attitude suddenly shifted and she growled at Maxine.
Her outburst made Maxine stop in her tracks as she stared at Thea in astonishment.
It took a few seconds for her to compose herself and reply, “I just wanted to help you carry your things.”
“That won’t be necessary,” Thea snapped back.
Then, she stood up, carried her suitcase, and dragged her injured body into the house.
After entering the house, she slammed the door shut.
Maxine touched her nose pensively and muttered, “She’s got a stick up her *ss this time too, huh?”
She shooed away her thoughts and chose not to linger at Thea’s place any longer.
