Liam held Zhen-Zhen the moment she fell unconscious. He carried her and put her down on the couch. He also did the same to Sophia.

Liam had conflicting thoughts right now. He couldn't believe that Zhen-Zhen showed her true power to Sophia, Tristan, and Matthew.

He couldn't understand why they were able to accept the truth easily. He was wondering how long they had known Zhen-Zhen's power and her identity.

"Did Lillie do something to them? Are they being threatened or what? Did she bewitch Tristan, that's why she became his wife?" Liam was having wild thoughts.

Liam immediately removed the fog and proceeded to the underground basement. The members of the Bermuda Gang were all lying unconscious on the floor.

He cast a sleeping spell on everyone inside the house. This was the only way he would be able to take Zhen-Zhen without being seen by the other people.

He was relieved knowing that everyone was alive. He checked their condition.

They also got bruises all over their bodies but nothing was seriously injured aside from the gang leader who was burned by Zhen-Zhen's magical fire.

Liam applied his healing power to reduce the pain the gang leader was feeling due to the wound inflicted by Zhen-Zhen's fire.

Liam knew that these people were bad guys who harmed Tristan and Matthew but he couldn't let Zhen-Zhen kill them.

They were still humans… just ordinary human beings. He still needed to protect them against Zhen-Zhen.

"They saw Lillie's strength. I think I need to erase their memory and forget about Lillie's extraordinary strength," Liam mumbled.

He was still unconsciously thinking about Zhen-Zhen.

With that thought in mind, Liam created a circle of lights around the floor surrounding the men. When he was done creating the symbol, he sat down in front of them.

He closed his eyes and started to concentrate in his sitting position. Liam's incantation began. He was trying to remove their memories related to Zhen-Zhen and FaMo.

After twenty minutes, Liam finished his ritual. He cast a more powerful spell that could erase their memory.

He sealed those memories in their subconscious. They would no longer remember their encounter with Zhen-Zhen and FaMo in that warehouse.

Their memories of the incidents would be fragmented. There would be missing parts. They would just remember it unless a similar event or incident would trigger them.

'Am I doing this for them or for Lillie?' Liam asked himself after leaving the underground basement.

When he came back to the living room of the house, Zhen-Zhen and Sophia were still lying unconscious on the couch.

Complicated emotions flashed through his eyes as he stared at Zhen-Zhen. He walked closer to her and kneeled beside the couch.

He watched her face for several minutes, still undecided of what he should do to her.

"I should worry about that later. I should take her out of here first," Liam mumbled to himself.

With that, he stood up and created another symbol on the floor. He planned on bringing Zhen-Zhen with him while FaMo was still not around.

The spell trap he cast on FaMo would only last for two hours. He thought he could break it anytime as he was the powerful demon god.

Liam exhausted too much power in creating the trap for FaMo, thinking he was the real demon god.

Liam was also tired from casting so many spells today. If he was using his hundred percent power then he could make a portal now going back to their new world.

But in his current condition, it would be impossible to do that. He was now casting another spell that would help him do the teleportation.

Several minutes had passed and he was now ready to leave the place. He already finished all the preparation for the dimension-hopping spell to be activated.

Liam immediately picked up Zhen-Zhen and carried her as he entered the circle and moved at the center of the symbol he created moments ago.

He began to chant incantations until bright lights emerged from the symbol on the floor. It formed a circle where there was a big star-shaped mark inside.

When the lights disappeared, Liam and Zhen-Zhen also vanished to that place.

*****

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Tristan and Matthew were still waiting for an update from Zhen-Zhen and Sophia.

An hour had already passed since the video call got disconnected and still, they didn't hear anything from the ladies.

"Matt, is there no reply yet from Sophia?" Tristan had started to become uneasy.

Matthew sighed deeply before shaking his head. "No. I tried calling her, but she is not answering. Her phone just keeps on ringing."

"I think we should check them now. I am worried about them already. It has been an hour. They should have been done with the interrogation by now," Tristan said with his worried expression.

"But Sophia and your wife told us not to leave the hospital. They might scold us big time if they see us there." Matthew was just trying his best to become obedient to Sophia.

"I don't know why but I feel like something is not right. I have a bad feeling about this. I wanna see my wife now. I want to make sure that they are just safe," Tristan expressed his concern with Matthew.

"Relax, Tristan. Nothing bad will happen to her. She's powerful. Your father-in-law is with them. He will protect them for sure," Matthew responded, consoling Tristan.

"Are you not worrying or even wondering why Sophia is not answering your call?"

Matthew fell silent. It was indeed strange that Sophia was not responding to his message and call.

"Yeah, right! I agree. I think we should go there and find out what is happening." Matthew changed his mind in an instant.

With that, Tristan and Matthew changed their clothes. They didn't care about getting scolded by the ladies as long as they could see them safe and sound.

They couldn't wait anymore. Though they were still having difficulty walking, Tristan and Matthew didn't think twice about leaving the hospital.

They just left some notes telling the nurses that they would come back and settle the bill. They had to leave because of an urgent matter.

They grabbed a taxi cab going to Tristan's penthouse. His penthouse was located in the next city so it took them half an hour before they arrived there.

Tristan and Matthew dashed inside the house. They immediately saw Sophia who was sleeping on the couch. Matthew ran towards her, tapping her shoulders to wake her up.

"Sophia? Wake up," Matthew softly mumbled as he gathered her in his arms.

While Matthew was checking Sophia, Tristan headed straight to the underground basement, searching for Zhen-Zhen and FaMo.

His heart was thumping so hard inside his chest. He became more nervous and anxious especially when he only saw Sophia in the living room. She was unconscious.

With his aching body, Tristan tried to move faster. He wanted to see Zhen-Zhen and FaMo as soon as possible. But to his disappointment, he didn't see them. The unconscious members of the Bermuda Gang were the only people he found there.

He tried looking and searching in the different areas of the house but there was no sign of FaMo and Zhen-Zhen. They were nowhere to be found. Tristan started to panic.

"Zhen-Zhen!!! Father-in-Law!!!" Tristan kept on yelling, hoping that one of them would respond.

Matthew and Sophia approached Tristan who was about to lose his mind just searching for Zhen-Zhen and FaMo. Sophia finally woke up.

"Tristan, did you find them?" Matthew asked him.

"No! I can't see my wife."

Tristan faced Sophia, holding and shaking her shoulders as he asked her. "Sophia, what happened here? Where's my wife and my father-in-law?"

Sophia bit her lower lip and shook her head. She had no idea as well. She suddenly fainted when Zhen-Zhen was about to teleport.

"Mr. Zu Wan went out to check something. He told Zhen-Zhen to create a strong barrier. Then if he was not back after ten minutes he instructed us to leave here as soon as possible. We were told to go back and teleport to somewhere far away from here," Sophia informed them.

"A few minutes when Mr. Zu Wan left, the house was engulfed by a thick fog. Then I fainted. I didn't know what happened next while I was unconscious."

Tristan felt devastated after hearing that. He had a nagging feeling since this morning, that's why he was very reluctant to be separated from his wife.

He felt like something bad would happen. And now, this happened. His wife and father-in-law went missing.

"Where are they? What happened to them?" Tristan continued shaking Sophia. Matthew had to step up and pulled Sophia away from him.

"Calm down, Tristan. Get a grip on yourself. Let's not jump to a conclusion yet. Come, let's see the CCTV monitor. It might have recorded something. Through that, we can see what happened here," Matthew tried to make Tristan calm down.
