While Zu Wan was trying to save Tristan in his life and death situation, Zhen-Zhen was trapped in her beautiful dream, losing her will to wake up.
If she would lose either Tristan or her father, she felt like staying in that dream forever wherein she could be with her family… her parents, her children, and her husband.
Miho and FaMo started to cry for their masters. Both of them were suffering thinking about getting separated from each other.
'Zhen-Zhen, be strong! You have to stay positive. Wake up!' Miho was calling her as she noticed the strange condition Zhen-Zhen was experiencing.
It seemed like she was trapping herself in her own subconscious wherein she could see the scene she wanted and her heart was desiring the most– to be with her family.
On the other hand, FaMo could feel that his master's life force was diminishing as he continued to heal Tristan.
Zu Wan was also severing his bond with FaMo. If this transfer of power would succeed, Tristan would become FaMo's new master.
They just hoped that Tristan's body would be able to adjust to the magical power coming from Zu Wan, the demon god.
[ After an hour… ]
"Master…" FaMo called him when he saw Zu Wan's body slowly disappearing.
After staying in this new world, bonding with Zhen-Zhen, and interacting with other people, FaMo could already feel different emotions just like humans. And now, he could be affected by the things happening around him.
Watching his master slowly disappearing before his eyes, FaMo couldn't help but feel emotional. Yes! The black fire dragon was now crying… weeping. He was in tears.
"Master… Don't leave us!" FaMo could no longer stay quiet.
Zu Wan opened his eyes and met FaMo's gaze. He smiled tenderly at him. This was the first time FaMo received that kind of gentle smile coming from his Master… his former ruthless and cold-hearted Master, the demon god.
"FaMo… my black fire dragon… before I completely disappear, let me grab this chance to thank you. You've done a good job taking care of and protecting my daughter. You have my respect."
FaMo became more touched by his master's words of praise.
"I will be forever grateful to you. Please, make sure to protect her and my grandchildren. Work with Tristan. I am leaving my daughter to both of you. Make her happy..." Zu Wan's eyes also got misty as he thought of Zhen-Zhen. He wanted to see her one last time but it seemed that it was impossible to do now.
"Master… I will do that… Thank you for believing in me, for trusting me, and for giving me this important task. I'm so happy that I am part of your power. Thank you for making me strong and powerful. It's been a great journey, serving you all my life!" FaMo's tears kept on pouring.
Zu Wan smiled once again. He felt at ease knowing FaMo would still be there for Zhen-Zhen even without him.
"FaMo, I have one last request from you."
"What is it, Master?"
"Please hug my daughter after this. Tell her that I love her… and I'm sorry for leaving her again." Zu Wan's tears started to fall. Though he was smiling, the intense sadness could be seen in his eyes.
"Master…"
"How I wish… I can stay with her for long… and watch my grandchildren grow up. But I guess… this is the end of my journey. I enjoy my short stay here. At least, I got to see my daughter again. I bonded with her. I was able to see, hug and kiss her again… my sweet angel. I have no regrets, FaMo. Pass this message to her. I don't want her to cry or be sad because of me."
"Yes, Master… I will definitely relay this to Zhen-Zhen."
Zu Wan nodded his head. His body turned into a spirit… no flesh… just a white light. It did not take long when that white light fused to Tristan's body as the last step of transferring power to his son-in-law.
"Goodbye… M-Master," FaMo mumbled with his trembling voice. The process was now complete. He also fused to Tristan's body.
Tristan was now surrounded by various lights. The wound on his chest was now completely healed! It worked! Zu Wan succeeded in healing his critical wound after sacrificing his life span.
Zu Wan… he disappeared like a bubble. The demon god was gone. Only Tristan remained in that room. His heart rate and other vitals became normal. He was no longer in danger!
Grandpa Lu, Lucas, Isabelle, and Andrew were still waiting outside the ward, wondering what was happening inside. An hour had already passed but Zu Wan hadn't come out of the ward yet.
They became more tense as time went by. Would Tristan be fine? They were waiting anxiously. They were also worried about Zhen-Zhen. She was not able to handle the emotional stress and so she collapsed.
"How's Lillie?" Grandpa Lu asked Andrew. He was the last one who left Zhen-Zhen's room when Dos was examining her.
"The doctor gave her an IV. Her pulse was weak and she looked pale. She needs to get some rest. Worrying this much… It's not good for her and the babies."
"Sigh. Why is this happening? We are supposed to celebrate and prepare for Tristan's and Lillie's wedding. How did everything end up like this?" Isabelle said, crying in her husband's arms.
"Everything will be fine… Just have faith!" Lucas said, encouraging and comforting his wife.
"My poor granddaughter… My heart ached for both of them. Grandson, wake up! Your wife is suffering… she is hurting right now." Grandpa Lu said as if Tristan was there in front of him.
They were still talking when the door of the ward finally slid open. They immediately focused their attention, eager to see Zu Wan to ask him what happened to Tristan.
But to their surprise, the person who emerged from the door was not Zu Wan but Tristan.
"Where is my wife?" That's the first thing he said upon waking up from a coma.
