Chapter 1102

Hospital… he didn't want to go listen to Shi Fanmeng's nagging complaints!

"General Su, please come with me!" begged the middle-aged man Zhang Pohu, "My grandfather is dying—he wants to see you before he passes!"

"Let's go!"

Su Yang sighed heavily.

Zhang Yi wanted to see him—he couldn't possibly avoid him.

To be fair, Old City Lord Zhang played a huge role in eliminating the Beast Emperor, Hurricane Roar-Tiger!

He recognized the Beast Emperor, Hurricane Roar-Tiger, from its roar and reported it to the Southeast Military Headquarters over a month in advance.

Thanks to Zhang Yi's intelligence, Qian Qian Hailong Sect sent Su Yang to investigate the Black Tiger Mountains and requested reinforcements from the General Military Headquarters and other branches.

Without Zhang Yi, the Beast Emperor's army might not have been detected until it was nearly upon Black Tiger City!

At that point, Black Tiger City and over a dozen surrounding cities would have suffered terribly!

Zhang Yi bought the Southeast region more than a month's time!

Those beast roars were heard by dozens of cities, hundreds of thousands of people.

Yet only Zhang Yi, comatose on his hospital bed, recognized the Beast Emperor, Hurricane Roar-Tiger—the same one from forty years ago.

Su Yang himself admired this ability!

Of course, it also shows just how obsessed Zhang Yi was!

The Black Tiger City hospital was packed with wounded; too crowded, many could only lie on stretchers outside.

The stretchers had been taken from other residents' homes in Black Tiger City.

Before the battle, Qian Qian Hailong had dispatched ten worm-trains loaded with medical personnel to Black Tiger City.

Since all the wounded were soldiers, order was maintained by medical staff and other troops—everyone waited in place for treatment!

These wounded were almost all injured or killed after the Unextinguishable Light vanished, while hunting down remaining ferocious beasts…

Su Yang could do nothing about it.

War always brings casualties.

Su Yang arrived at the entrance; many wounded greeted him—he nodded solemnly and entered the hospital.

Under Zhang Pohu's lead, Su Yang had just stepped into Zhang Yi's ward when he found it already packed with people…

There was Mo Yunjian, Qian Qian Hailong… and Shi Fanmeng.

"Generals, elders, please make way, make way—my grandfather wants to see General Su!"

Zhang Pohu whispered.

All the generals turned to Su Yang and quickly cleared a path for him.

Shi Fanmeng had her hands tucked inside her white coat, glaring fiercely at Su Yang.

Clearly, Mo Yunjian and Qian Qian Hailong had already sold him out!

But Su Yang wasn't afraid—he was now a Royal-level Beast Tamer, no longer the insignificant man he used to be!

Maybe in a month, he'd be on equal rank with Shi Fanmeng!

Mo Yunjian called out: "Hurry, General Su—Zhang Yi is dying!"

Hearing Mo Yunjian's call, Su Yang hurried forward.

At the bedside lay Zhang Yi, emaciated, his head wrapped in bandages—he smiled at Su Yang.

Su Yang could tell he had much to say!

He struggled to lift his hand; Su Yang hesitated briefly, then took it.

Zhang Yi's hand was weak, almost devoid of strength.

"G-General Su!"

"Mm."

"…."

Su Yang waited for Zhang Yi to speak, but he only smiled, slowly closing one eye.

The flickering life force… vanished like a candle in the wind!

Su Yang gently laid Zhang Yi's hand back beside him.

"Thank you, General Su!" Zhang Pohu wiped his tears and said, "My grandfather passed… happily. Before you came, he said he was glad—when General Xiao ordered him to guard Black Tiger City, to monitor the ferocious beasts in the Black Tiger Mountains, he waited forty years… and finally, this day came! I've cared for him all these years—I often heard him murmur in his sleep. I knew he never stopped thinking of that Beast Emperor, never stopped. Now, he has no regrets!"
