Tristan clenched his fists. These guardian warriors were somehow responsible for Grandpa Lu's heart attack. Grandpa Lu was utterly shocked when his great-grandchildren were taken by the guardian warriors.

"FaMo, you know what to do!" Tristan mumbled.

FaMo and Tristan were connected to each other so FaMo already knew what Tristan wanted him to do.

Without further ado, FaMo's black fire engulfed the five guardian warriors while Miho, with Zhen-Zhen's order, built another prison barrier to lock them up, not allowing them to escape.

"Aaaaah!!!" The ice element wielder screamed as soon as FaMo's fire swallowed him up.

Before they could respond, blackness took over their mind. They simply fell unconscious, but they remained awake in another dimension. This dimension was FaMo's territory.

It was so dark that they couldn't see anything. But they felt so hot as if they were being cooked in a pot.

"Hey, who is here with me?" The healer asked, wondering if her comrades were around.

"I'm here… here," one shaman responded and her words echoed in the area.

"I'm here!" Another guardian warrior spoke up.

The healer felt relieved as they were still together, although they couldn't see each other because of darkness.

When their visions were able to adjust, they finally saw each other's position. They were just standing on the same spot.

It did not take long before a giant flying fire dragon appeared before them. It was so huge! They just stood frozen in their spots as the fire dragon suddenly released numerous fireballs coming from its mouth.

They were supposed to avoid those fireballs but they were immobilized.

"Aaaaaah!!!" Another scream was heard. Their bodies were set on fire. It was so hot, but it didn't burn them. Still, they could feel the burning sensation as if they were being punished in hell!

It did not take long when another orange fire dragon showed up, attacking them as well. It was Miho. She threw sharp fire arrows, hitting them at the different parts of their bodies.

The guardian warriors were so scared. They were afraid that they might die anytime. But even though they received such severe attacks, they couldn't die. They were just being tortured by those fire attacks coming from the two fire dragons.

"How dare you kidnap the Twins?! Because of you, their great-grandpa's life was put in danger!" FaMo said, blaming the guardian warriors.

"You shouldn't have come here! You are just causing trouble for our masters." Miho continued shooting fire arrows in their directions.

"Stop! Please stop!" The healer tried her best to put shields and heal her comrades but her power was not working inside FaMo's territory.

'Is this our end? I regret coming here. What if we are the ones who really brought this demise upon ourselves?' The healer mused to herself.

Meanwhile, Christian and Cassie already arrived at the hospital where Grandpa Lu was admitted. They saw Isabelle and Lucas pacing back and forth in front of Grandpa Lu's private ward.

The doctor hadn't come out yet. They were still performing emergency treatment for Grandpa Lu's condition. They didn't notice that Christian and Cassie were already there.

Later on, the doctor came out followed by the nurses. There was a sullen look in the doctor's eyes. Isabelle and Lucas immediately approached the doctor, asking him about Grandpa Lu's condition.

"How is my father? Is he safe now?" Lucas asked the doctor anxiously.

"We revived him after his heart stopped beating a while ago. However…"

The doctor paused for a moment, darting his gaze between Isabelle and Lucas. He wasn't sure if they could handle this piece of news.

"There was a blockage in the blood flow in his brain… a blood clot and now the patient was put in a coma. We can perform surgery but this is very critical. Unfortunately, in the current condition of his body, we couldn't guarantee that the patient could still recover even if we perform this surgery."

Isabelle almost fell when she heard that. Lucas' heart also sank, not believing this situation. They were not ready to lose Grandpa Lu. Not yet! Why now? The doctor seemed to tell them that Grandpa Lu's situation was hopeless. They could no longer save him!

"Doc, you might be mistaken? My father is very strong and healthy. He might be old but he was healthy! He never gets sick!" Lucas insisted.

The doctor shook his head. "I just talked to his personal doctor. He sent me your father's medical records and history. Your father has been sick. He was not showing it to the family. In fact, he hid his condition from all of you."

Lucas stepped back, his legs feeling weak and limp. They didn't see this coming. All along, they thought Grandpa Lu was healthy and he was not ill at all.

"No… this is not true…" Lucas mumbled in his trembling voice.

Isabelle was as shocked as him. She covered her mouth, her tears falling from the corners of her eyes.

"You should tell the family and prepare yourselves for the worst-case scenario. See him and tell him anything you want." The doctor held Lucas' shoulder, trying to tell him to be strong.

It did not take long when Andrew joined them. Isabelle hugged her husband who was still speechless.

"Mom, Dad, what happened to Grandpa? Why are you both crying?" Andrew asked the husband and wife.

Andrew came to check on his grandpa's condition and at the same time, inform them that Allen, Ella, and the Twins were already safe. Alveena was with Allen and others.

"Your grandpa… he is…" Isabelle couldn't finish her words. There was a lump in her throat.

Christian who was just listening on the side, could no longer stop himself from entering Grandpa Lu's ward. Though he was just five, he could already grasp the situation. Grandpa Lu was dying! And he was as affected as his grandparents were.

"Bro…" Cassie called him out. Christian had a dark aura surrounding him. His expression was gloomy and he just ignored Cassie. He continued walking towards the ward.

Cassie put her palms together while watching her brother's back anxiously. She could feel it. Christian was furious and sad.
