"Shh." Su Chen made a gesture to be quiet.

It seems Lin Xi is indeed too exhausted; she fell asleep again during the short distance Su Chen carried her back from the garage.

Actually, this is quite normal.

Since the incident at Yimena, she hasn't had a good night's sleep.

Su Chen took Lin Xi straight to her room.

"Xiao Chen, finally wised up." Watching this scene, a hint of a smile appeared on Qiu Jinhan's face.

However, there was an inexplicable emotion behind that smile.

Su Chen didn't linger in Lin Xi's room for long and soon returned to his own room,

Back in his room, Su Chen took out a canvas bag from under the bed and slung it over his shoulder.

"Xiao Chen, are you heading out?" Qiu Jinhan noticed Su Chen seemed about to leave.

"Yes." Su Chen nodded.

He had an extremely important task to accomplish.

The rescue of Ye Yu had delayed the infinite task.

Fortunately, he had already found the Titan Arum.

Therefore, the infinite task was no longer necessary.

He wondered if the old General's health was still okay.

With the Titan Arum, Su Chen could at least add another five to ten years to the old General's life.

Su Chen first contacted Liang Bing.

Upon receiving Su Chen's call, Liang Bing was immensely grateful.

She already knew Ye Yu had been rescued.

Back then, upon hearing the team captain had been captured, Liang Bing found Su Chen in a desperate attempt for help.

Additionally, Su Chen was gone for months.

Ye Yu even thought Su Chen had failed in the rescue.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen actually succeeded.

The team captain had returned to the Jiangdu Dragon Team branch.

Although currently in a suspension investigation period, at least he was still alive.

Su Chen inquired about the old General Tang's situation.

He found that the old General's condition was very poor and he was now hospitalized.

Half an hour later, Su Chen arrived at the Jiangdu Noble Hospital.

"A month ago, the old man was no longer well; the doctor said he could live for at most another half month. Unexpectedly, the old man held on until now." In the ward, there were only Liang Bing and a nurse who took care of the old man.

It's known that once Tang Zhengguo was a prominent figure in Jiangdu City.

Now, gravely ill and near death, not a single person came to visit him.

An unspeakable desolation.

This truly is an old hero who fought on battlefields.

Now, fallen to such a state.

When people leave, tea gets cold.

Reflected vividly.

Logically, half a month ago, the old man's body had already worn out.

Yet, surprised he persisted until now.

However, most of the time, he remained in a coma.

"Is it Xiao Chen who returned?" The old man seemed to notice Su Chen's arrival and opened his eyes.

In this final half month, the old man mostly remained in a coma, occasionally waking up.

Every time he woke, the first question was if Su Chen returned.

Finding Su Chen hadn't returned.

Back into a coma he went.

It could be said, the old man held off releasing his last breath.

Just waiting for Su Chen to return.

"Old man, it's me, I've returned!" Su Chen held the old man's hand.

Feeling the warmth from Su Chen's hand.

The old man instantly became incredibly excited.

"Xiao Chen, you finally returned, finally returned, how wonderful, how wonderful..." The old man's tears flowed in excitement.

"Old man, are you alright!"

"The doctor said I could only live for half a month. I refuse to believe it; see, I have lived a month now. But, Xiao Chen, now that you're back, I feel relieved!" The old man seemed revitalized.

Became somewhat spirited.

"Yes, I'm back! Old man, you'll get better." Su Chen nodded firmly.

The old man however shook his head and said: "Xiao Chen, I know my body is done for. But, the only thing I can't let go of is Xiao Yi! You, you must find her back, can't be harmed because of an old man like me!"

"Where did she go?" Su Chen asked.

"She, she accepted the infinite task..." Liang Bing said from behind.

"What!" On hearing this, Su Chen's face changed drastically.

He himself had done the infinite task.

Knew its dangers.

Even for him, assurance of completion wasn't a hundred percent.

Moreover, speaking of Tang Yi.

Tang Yi's ability hadn't even reached Dragon Team standards.

"When did this happen?" Su Chen's expression changed dramatically.

Infinite task, not to be taken lightly.

Danger lies in potential fatality.

"Based on my investigation, she accepted the infinite task shortly after you left." Liang Bing said.

Su Chen furrowed his brow.

Experience the unexpected: Tang Yi actually accepted the infinite task earlier than him.

Clearly, Tang Yi's reason for accepting the infinite task was straightforward.

To obtain Titan Arum.

Now, Su Chen had already acquired Titan Arum, making the infinite task unnecessary.

"How is she now?" Su Chen looked toward Liang Bing.

Infinite tasks are issued by the Dragon Team.

Liang Bing, being part of the Dragon Team, might know Tang Yi's situation.

Liang Bing nodded, took a glance at the old man, then said: "Let's go outside and talk."

"What's wrong with Xiao Yi? Is Xiao Yi in trouble?" Hearing Liang Bing's words, the old man became somewhat agitated.

"Rest assured, old man, she is still alive; she submitted an infinite task to the Dragon Team not long ago." Liang Bing said with a smile.

Su Chen followed Liang Bing out of the intensive care unit.

Despite Liang Bing's words, from her calling him outside, it was evident Tang Yi's situation wasn't favorable.

"Commander, prepare yourself mentally." Liang Bing's expression turned somewhat somber.

"What happened to Tang Yi? You just said she submitted an infinite task, she should be alive, right?" Su Chen was somewhat agitated.

"But, that infinite task was submitted ten days ago, in the recent ten days, she hasn't submitted any tasks." Liang Bing said solemnly.

Typically, time between two tasks is less than a week.

Because infinite tasks have time constraints.

Points needed must be earned within the stipulated time.

So, for those undergoing infinite tasks, time is money.

Such as not submitting tasks for ten days, there are only two possibilities.

Either abandoning the infinite task.

Or...

Already dead!

Su Chen's complexion instantly sank.

He comprehends what ten days without submission in infinite task means.

"I dare not let the old man know, so kept it from him, yet, he'll find out sooner or later..." Liang Bing's expression turned a bit gloomy.

The original plan was for Su Chen to perform this infinite task.

Due to Liang Bing's plea for rescuing Ye Yu, the infinite task was delayed...
