Chapter 950 - Saving The Fifth Elder

Su Sheng's words had eased Jin Hua's doubts, next, she could focus on the next step which is saving Fifth Elder as soon as possible, Jin Hua then make a sign on the wall for LanHua before she turned to Su sheng and Su Feng saying: "Let's go, we have to hurry!" Jin Hua quickened her pace immediately Su Feng and Su Sheng followed suit.

They ran down to a fairly long narrow passage until they finally arrived at a room with an arched roof, but all of a sudden their movement was blocked by three guards who were startled by the arrival of Jin Hua and the father and son of the Su family.

Even though Jin Hua was wearing Jin Kai's subordinate uniform but they knew they are not from the same side, instantly the aura in the room turned heavy as both sides became alert.

Su Sheng suddenly shouted frantically, "Father!"

Only then did they notice an old man chained to the wall, his arms outstretched and tied with iron handcuffed nails to the wall while his legs were tied with heavy chains, the old man was kneeling on his knees with his shoulders sagged without showing any movement, it's not even a day yet but the Fifth elder condition has become so bad, what exactly had Elder Zheng done to Fifth Elder?!

"So you're from the Su family, huh?" a skinny guard with a thin face snorted disdainfully.

Another guard with a large stature drew his sword, "It doesn't matter who you are or how you found this place because none of you will leave this place"

"I will take down this handsome young master first" the guards with burn scars on the right side of their faces grinned wickedly towards Su Feng.

Su Feng wasn't afraid, he sneered while giving him a condescending look, "Let's see if you have the ability"

The two sides jumped at the same time the two groups collided with each other, the sound of the wind howling and metal clashing reverberated in the air the battle was fierce as Jin Kai's subordinates said the people guarding the fifth elder were quite strong but Jin Hua and the others were also formidable cultivators that had a lot of experience in combat although it took some time they able to subdue the three guards the last guard was thrust on the chest by Jin Hua swords the man fall on his knee with wide-open then fall face down on the ground. 

Jin Hua swung her sword to remove any remaining blood on her sword then sheathed the sword while Su Sheng and Su Feng ran towards Fifth Elder, they tried to release Fifth Elder's chains but the chains were made of a special material which their swords cannot break, see what happen Jin Hua examined the bodies of the three previous guards then managed to find the key from one of the dead guards.

Just before Jin Hua was about to open the handcuffed lock suddenly someone shouted, "STOP!"

They were surprised to see Lan Hua who was walking towards them with long strides, the corners of her eyes creased with concern as he watched Fifth Elder "Be careful…" she sign everyone to take a step back.

Everyone was confused all of a sudden they were startled by the sound of chains breaking and a hand reached for Su Sheng's neck, Su Sheng reflexively dodged the attack by sliding away from the threat however, his eyes widened in utter shock when he realize who is the threat was, in front of him the fifth elder growl at him like a wild beast with one of his hand stretched towards him.

"Fa..father?" Su Sheng's lips trembled.

There was a dangerous glint in Fifth Elder's eyes as if he couldn't wait to tear Su Sheng apart, failing to grab Su Sheng's neck, his breathing became heavy then he hissed in a cold voice, "Devil….you kill my family, 'will kill you...I will...kill you...you...die..." he repeated the sentence incoherently, only the madness in his eyes was certain.

"Father?" Su Sheng falls down on his knee watching his father turn into a lunatic.

"Grandfather it's me, Su Feng, your grandson!" Su Feng shouted desperately trying to wake his grandfather from his delusion instead the Fifth elder almost jumped at Su Feng if not his other hand still handcuffed to the wall.

"Stay away from him!" Lan Hua quickly warned them "It seems the Fifth elder was already affected by Lao Min Na's drugs" Lan Hua's words took them by surprise.

"But, it hasn't even been a day, how can he be affected like this?" Lan Hua gaped in disbelief as far as she knew it would take weeks if not months for the person consuming Lao Min Na to be affected, so how could Fifth Elder become like this in just a day?

Lan Hua shook her head in distress "The only explanation is that Jin Kai finds a way to speed up the process" Lan Hua's expression became tense he didn't expect the situation to be any worse than before.

"Then can we....can we still help grandfather?" Su Feng tries to remain calm but he actually struggles to put up a strong face.

"I think if we give the water given to my young madam it might work" Lan Hua had no other solution since she had never faced anything like this before.

"How do we get him to drink it?" Jin Hua stared warily at the fifth elder who was looking at them with thick killing intent. Let alone make the Fifth Elder drink they couldn't even approach the fifth elder without fear of being attacked.

"Then we have to force him to drink that miracle water no matter what" Su Sheng determined to do whatever it takes.

'CLINK-CLANK!'

The four of them were startled they simultaneously raised their head and turn around in slow motion, turning out the Fifth elder somehow managed to break away from his chain, he hobbles towards them as he stare with hollow eyes "De...mon" he groan.

"Lan Hua...wha...what should we do now?" Lan Hua held her breath trying to sound as calm as she could.

"Tsk, what else we could do!" she summons a sword from her spatial ring, immediately the other follow suit.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Jin Hua was actually nervous about having to fight against the Fifth Elder because the last letter from Bei Li Yan said he had to be careful when dealing with a creature called a Lesser-Demon especially since she hadn't yet learned the Qi purifying technique from Zhao Li Xin because at that time she already went to guard Jin Hua, therefore, she only knew based on the theory that Bei Li Yan wrote in one of the letter for her but unfortunately Bei Li Yan wasn't good at explaining things in words.

She can only hope that the Fifth elder hasn't changed completely into Lesser-demon or whatever.

"We have to surround him!" Lan Hua gives orders.

"I don't want to hurt Grandpa" Su Sheng tightened his grip on his sword.

"We don't, we just weaken him so we can force him to drink!" Jin Hua explains.

"Let's go, we have to save your grandfather before too late!" Su Sheng chimed in.

They jumped in the air at the same time, Fifth Elder released his powerful Qi the shockwave throw Su Feng and Su Sheng was they landed on the ground pushed a few meters away but they still managed to stand on the other side Jin Hua and Lan Hua had activated their protective talismans so they could still continue their attacks, the two women swung their swords at Fifth Elder.

Fifth Elder dodged their attacks swiftly his movement was nimble and deathly like leopard he almost hit Jin Hua if not Lan Hua block his fist with her sword still they were flung to the ground. 

Su Feng and Su Sheng didn't waste their time once again they launch an attack to help the two girls as soon as the fight grew fiercer, suddenly Fifth Elder managed to hit Su Sheng right in the chest and the man was fall harshly to the ground.

"Father!" Su Feng shouted in panic.

Su Sheng clenched his aching chest then he shouted, "I'm fine, FOCUS ON YOUR FIGHT!"
