Chapter 356 (2/2)

A person controlling this rate, like Ye Lang greatly slowing it now, was unheard of.

Perhaps it was because no one had thought of doing this as they were so fixated on the general ‘rule’. Well, the inflexibility of the mind can be a very serious problem in the long term.

Sometimes, change is required even if it means changing an established habit.

Ye Lang removed the crystal layer by later so it grew thinner and thinner…

“Focus,” reminded Ye Lang once the crystal reached a certain level of thickness.

“Ten… Nine…”

…

“Three… Two… One… Go.”

The doctors released their magic at Ye Lang’s word, each in charge of a specific portion as they had already allocated before.

Many beams of light magic fell on the Sacred Lady, her wounds disappearing in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, Ye Lang also added a few needles for acupuncture to ensure the success of the procedure.

“We’re done,” announced the doctors after the rays grew brighter. They could feel the Sacred Lady’s life energies slowly recovering, hence they retracted their magic.

Ye Lang kept his needles, taking her pulse. He observed her intently- he had to check if the reconstruction was a success, especially the parts he worked on.

“Alright…” nodded Ye Lang after observing the girl. She looked like she was in a stable condition.

“Ye Lang sir, how were you able to manipulate the crystal?” asked the doctors.

“That’s simple, as long as you…” Ye Lang explained what he did to the doctors, about how he manipulated one of the crystal’s unique characteristics using very simple alchemy.

The doctors grew more ashamed of themselves as they listened to Ye Lang. It was so simple they never would’ve thought of it. At this point, they couldn’t believe they were once arrogant people who took so much pride in their medical skills.

“Brother, how did you know to use it?” asked Ye Lanyu. This was one of those questions that didn’t require an answer. Ye Lang sometimes did, other times too lazy to.

Ye Lang would usually choose to give answers if Ye Lanyu could understand it, while the rest he was too lazy to answer was because she would not understand. Giving an explanation would only invite more questions.

“I have an ice core, I’ve used it before so I know,” he replied casually.

“Hmmph,” snorted Zhen XIaoyan, her expression upset.

Looking at her, Ye Lanyu and the princess understood. “You froze Zhen Xiaoyan?” It must be, she was often his lab rat.

“Yep, but I’ve helped freeze her food a few times too. That was from the time I hired hunters… or sometimes I hunt them myself,” nodded Ye Lang.

“...You used the ice crystal core to freeze the animals you hunted?!” asked Ye Lanyu.
