"The lady's illness should ideally be treated on Earth, where they have more advanced medical technology, and they can effectively treat diseases like this," Dr. An Liang said to the couple seriously.

"I apologize for not mentioning it earlier, but I was a part of the Prophetic War," admitted the young man.
