The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

While the situation in Mt. Calypso was getting chaotic, Liam, on the other hand, continued looking for Mheera.

He was weakened after using too much magical force to open the portal. He also used dimension-hopping spells several times just to find Mheera.

Liam was getting tired now. The over exhaustion was now affecting his body. If he continued doing this, he might collapse in the middle of his search.

He already searched the four mountains but he still failed to see her. Now he was contemplating whether to just go to Mt. Calypso or the other mountain which he didn't check yet.

Liam chose the latter. He decided to go to Mt. Calypso after checking this last mountain. Upon arriving there, Liam continued his search.

He roamed around the mountain with the guidance of his Torch spell which served as a source of light in that dark mountain.

As he continued to navigate the mountain, he found a suspicious cave. He could feel a dark aura coming from that cave. The birds and animals living around that cave were restless and disturbed.

He quickly traced his steps towards the cave. And viola! He finally found Mheera. But something seemed not right as he could see the setup inside the cave.

Mheera did some rituals. And now she was unconscious while lying on the engraved mark. Liam rushed in her direction, kneeling down and gathering her in his arms.

"Mheera! Wake up! Wake up!" Liam smacked her face and shook her body but she was not reacting.

He looked around. Then he saw the scripture about the forbidden spell in front of Mheera. Liam's eyes widened after reading the magical text. Soul Possession. He read it further to understand how the spell worked.

"Don't tell me… she possessed Tristan? Did her soul fuse with Tristan's body?! No! Lillie is in great danger!"

Liam's heart pounded so hard inside his chest, worrying about Tristan and Zhen-Zhen. He gritted his teeth. He was furious as Mheera didn't stop doing something evil.

She used Tristan, Zhen-Zhen's weakness, to fight her. Liam could imagine how difficult it was for Zhen-Zhen to defend herself while not hurting Tristan in the process.

He didn't know how to stop this spell. He was not knowledgeable about the forbidden spell. Only Shamans knew how to unbind and retract the spell.

Liam looked at Mheera's soulless body. He was thinking about whether to do something against her body in order to bring her soul back.

'Is hurting her the only way to bring her soul back to her body?' Liam pondered to himself, still uncertain and hesitant about what to do next.

~ At Mount Calypso ~

Splash!

The sound of a water splash was heard the moment Tristan and Zhen-Zhen submerged into the water. The coldness helped Zhen-Zhen to sober up. The dizziness caused by the fog a while ago suddenly disappeared.

This happened because she could no longer smell the sleeping effect of the Haze Spell. However, Zu Wan became more furious when he saw the couple falling into the water.

Zhen-Zhen was pregnant. Fighting someone might put her life including the twins in danger.

"Master! Miho said Tristan was under a spell! Zhen-Zhen wants to break it! So don't hurt him." Miho spoke up to relay Zhen-Zhen's message to Zu Wan who was busy attacking the barrier.

He already threw numerous fireballs towards the barrier but he still failed to break it. He was in a hurry. He needed to protect Zhen-Zhen against Tristan.

"Damn! They used Tristan to harm my daughter. Tristan is Zhen-Zhen's weakness!" Zu Wan kept on attacking the barrier, hoping to dig even a hole wherein he could pass through.

His heart felt like it was going to burst from too much nervousness and concern for Zhen-Zhen.

"Miho! Stop fighting us! Just help me break this goddamn barrier! I need to save and protect my daughter! Instead of fighting FaMo and me, why don't you protect her?" Zu Wan said, scolding the orange fire dragon, Miho.

"Forgive me, Master Zu Wan. But I am just following Zhen-Zhen's order. You know that I can't disobey her," Miho explained to  Zu Wan.

Zu Wan punched the barrier several times out of his fury. His attempt to break it failed. Zhen-Zhen made sure that he would not be able to lay a hand on Tristan.

This situation was breaking his heart. Zhen-Zhen chose this action because she was more concerned with Tristan than herself. But for Zu Wan, her life was more precious than him as she was carrying the two babies inside her womb.

Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen and Tristan were still fighting under the water. He was thrusting the dagger in her direction while Zhen-Zhen tried to dodge every attack from Tristan.

They looked like they were wrestling each other under the water. Tristan even tried to stab her into her stomach, targeting her babies. But Zhen-Zhen kicked him away. She would not allow Tristan to hurt their twins.

'Tristan, wake up! Control yourself! I thought you wanted to protect me and our babies!' Zhen-Zhen tried to communicate with him through a mind link.

'Tristan! Please...wake up!'

For some unknown reason, Tristan finally heard Zhen-Zhen's voice in his subconscious. He knew that something was not right.

When he opened his eyes, he saw himself pushing the dagger on Zhen-Zhen's chest. She was blocking him by holding his hands. They were fighting under the water.

'Huh? What am I doing? Why am I attacking my wife?' Tristan's mind was awakened but his body was still under Mheera's control. She was the one attacking Zhen-Zhen using the divine dagger.

'No! Stop! Don't hurt my wife!' Tristan screamed in his mind.

Then Tristan heard Zhen-Zhen's voice once again. She was already crying while pleading.

'Tristan, wake up! Control yourself! I thought you wanted to protect me and our babies!'

Those words were like a wake-up call to him. Zhen-Zhen was right. He was supposed to protect them, not hurt them. He would never forgive himself if something bad happened to his wife and their babies.

'I will not let you hurt my wife!' Tristan said through his gritted teeth. He tried his best to fight Mheera and gain control of his body. It was a matter of willpower.

Not wanting to hurt Zhen-Zhen, Tristan retreated the divine dagger. But what he did next shook Zhen-Zhen and Mheera to the core. Tristan pierced his own chest using the dagger.

'Tristan!'
