Empire Building With Infinite Warehouse-Chapter 85: Master Yin’s Technique

Alice jumped up from her small chair on the other side of the hospital bed, looking completely panicked.

"Julien!" Alice said, rushing around the bed to check on him.

"What happened? Are you okay?"

Chris also turned his head on the pillow, frowning deeply as he looked at Julien’s pale face and sweaty forehead.

"Hey," Chris said, his voice rough and incredibly serious.

"Don’t do something stupid for me, alright? I can handle this much pain. Just sit down and rest."

Julien kept his head down for a few minutes, breathing heavily while he waited for the intense headache to finally fade away.

The hollow feeling from selling his combat skills was still there, but the new healing knowledge felt warm and solid inside his mind.

He slowly took a deep breath and raised his head.

He looked at Alice and gave her a small, reassuring nod so she would stop worrying, and then he turned his attention back to Chris.

"I am not doing anything stupid," Julien said quietly, wiping a drop of sweat off his chin.

"I am just doing my job."

He stood up from his chair and walked right up to the side of the hospital bed.

Julien carefully moved his hands until they were hovering just a few inches above Chris’s heavily bandaged arms, and he closed his eyes to focus on the ancient technique the system had just burned into his brain.

He pushed his remaining mana out of his chest and guided it down his arms.

Suddenly, golden mana formed in Julien’s hands, emitting with a warm and clean light that completely chased away the cold hospital shadows.

Chris’s eyes went wide as he stared at the bright magic, and Alice took a step back in total shock, leaving Julien to finally fix the damage the system had caused.

Julien kept his eyes shut tight.

He let the golden light flow from his palms and sink right through the thick white bandages wrapping Chris’s right arm.

He did not need to remove the cloth.

Master Yin’s technique was not about fixing physical skin but the energy underneath.

As soon as the golden mana entered Chris’s body, Julien’s mind shifted.

He could literally feel the layout of his friend’s veins and arteries.

But more importantly, he could see the hidden mana circuits running alongside them.

It looked just like a glowing roadmap in the dark.

And the roadmap was completely wrecked as of now.

’This looks terrible,’ Julien thought to himself, studying the damage in his mind.

’The magic from that giant sword basically chewed up his arms from the inside.’

He saw exactly where the energy flow just stopped.

The pathways were snapped.

Dark, corrupted residue from the Ruined Knight system blocked the connections.

It was like looking at a crushed highway filled with broken pavement. A normal healer could never fix this because they would only treat the muscles and bones.

Julien acted just like an old martial arts cultivator from those Chinese stories.

He took a tiny thread of his golden mana and carefully pushed it into Chris’s shattered pathways and started clearing out the dark residue piece by piece.

Once the blockages were gone, he used his own energy to gently pull the torn ends of the circuits back together.

It was exhausting work.

He had to guide the neurons and the magic to reconnect perfectly.

If he made a mistake, Chris might lose feeling in his hands forever.

For the next hour hospital room stayed completely quiet.

The only sound was the air conditioner and Julien’s breathing.

Sweat dripped down his forehead and stung his eyes, but he refused to wipe it away.

He kept his hands perfectly steady.

Alice stood near the foot of the bed.

She watched the entire process without making a single sound and just gripped the edge of the mattress, looking anxious but hopeful.

Finally, Julien felt the main circuit in the right arm snap back into place.

The golden light flared bright for a second and then settled down into a smooth, steady pulse.

Julien slowly opened his tired eyes and let his hands drop.

He took a huge step back and grabbed the edge of his chair to steady himself his chest was heaving up and down.

"Try it," Julien whispered, his voice sounding dry and cracked.

Chris stared at his right arm.

He looked a bit scared, probably expecting the same pain he felt earlier. But he swallowed hard and focused on his hand.

Underneath the thick layers of hospital gauze, his fingers twitched. Then they slowly curled inward.

He opened and closed his hand a few times.

The movement was a bit stiff, but it worked.

He actually had control again.

Julien let out a genuine smile.

It actually worked.

He bought a crazy expensive scroll from his system, and it did exactly what it promised.

Alice let out a shaky breath and started waving her hands around in pure excitement.

She looked like she wanted to hug both of them, but she held back so she would not ruin the moment.

"That feels weird," Chris muttered, flexing his fingers again.

He looked up at Julien with total shock on his face.

"I don’t know what you just did, but the burning pain is completely gone."

"I told you I was just doing my job," Julien replied, giving a tired laugh.

He wiped his sweaty forehead with the back of his sleeve and pointed at Chris’s left arm.

"Give me that hand, too. We need to finish this before I lose my focus."

Chris nodded immediately, shifted his weight on the bed, and offered up his left arm.

He trusted Julien completely now.

Julien took a deep breath and raised his hands again.

But something went completely wrong.

Before the light could even form properly, a sharp pain stabbed Julien right in the centre of his chest.

His throat closed up as he doubled over and coughed hard.

Blood splattered onto the white hospital floor.
