A new notification appeared in Zhang Fei's mind as the sun shone into their room, but he ignored it and watched Tang Ziyu, who stood frozen in front of the bathroom mirror.
Zhang Fei then hugged Tang Ziyu from behind, looked at her through the mirror, and stuffed the beauty retaining pill into her mouth, which she happily swallowed. "See? You are no longer an old woman, and you are no different from a woman in her early twenties. However, with your current appearance, you might not be able to return to the entertainment world.
People in this world will be shocked by your appearance, and they will pester you to discover the secret."
Tang Ziyu nodded at Zhang Fei, turning to face him while wrapping her arms around his neck. "Honestly, it is hard for me to leave the entertainment world that gave me so many things, but I have decided to be your wife. As a wife, I have to stay by my husband's side, and you live in another world, so I decided to leave everything behind and follow you into that world."
"Are you really okay with that, Ziyu?"
"Yes." Tang Ziyu nodded to Zhang Fei. "After ten years of marriage, I failed to find happiness in my marriage, so I immersed myself in the entertainment world to alleviate the sadness and loneliness in my heart. However, everything has changed, and I believe that you will give me a better life and happiness that I have longed for for so long, so I don't mind leaving it for a better future."
Zhang Fei was truly satisfied with Tang Ziyu's answer, and he then lifted her chin before kissing her lips. "Don't worry, you will never regret making this decision."
"I believe in you." Tang Ziyu then pulled Zhang Fei into the shower. "Let's take a bath; we can't let your grandma wait for us for too long."

Sometime later, they had arrived at the hotel, and Zhang Chen was ecstatic to see Tang Ziyu. However, she couldn't help but steal a glance at her grandson, especially since her idol actress had returned to her youthful appearance.
"Aunt Chen, I-"
"All right, you don't have to say anything." Zhang Chen stopped Tang Ziyu and grabbed her hand. "Originally, I was surprised to hear about your relationship with my grandson, but he has told me a lot about you, and he himself has many wives by his side, so I have no problem with the relationship between you two.
Instead, I am happy that he has taken you away from your husband, especially considering how poorly he has treated you."
Tang Ziyu was relieved to hear that, and she immediately hugged Zhang Chen. "Thank you, Aunt Chen."
Not only was Zhang Fei happy, but You Bai, who was lying on his head, was also happy for Tang Ziyu and herself, especially since he would take her away to another realm soon, and she was looking forward to meeting the other beasts.
After a while, Zhang Fei spoke to the two women. "Let's check out of this hotel, and I'll take you two to the Wang House first. Then, we will meet Ziyu's husband to end their marriage, and I will send you two to the Sky Jade Realm after that."

"I didn't expect that you were Wang Zetian's grandson, Fei'er." Tang Ziyu commented as she observed the Wang residence. "I met him twice a few years ago, and he was actually a nice guy, even though he always looked serious and stern."
Zhang Fei just smiled upon hearing that, especially since Zhang Hai did not know that Wang Zetian was his father. "I only found out about our relationship yesterday after forcing my grandmother to tell me everything; otherwise, I would never have known that he was my grandfather.
Honestly, I was disappointed because he chose his family status over her, but I didn't blame him for taking such a decision, especially since life at that time was not easy."
Zhang Fei then led the two women to the residence, but Zhang Chen hugged his right arm tightly as her body stiffened. After all, her last meeting with Wang Zetian was half a century ago, but today she will meet her first love, who is also the father of her son, after so long.
Moreover, Zhang Chen's appearance has significantly changed, and she is worried that her ex-lover will be shocked upon seeing her.
"Relax, Grandma." Zhang Fei spoke softly as he rubbed Zhang Chen's hands. "I'm by your side now, and I won't let anything bad happen to you or my grandpa."
"I know you'll protect me, but I'm afraid that Zetian will be shocked by my appearance." Zhang Fei naturally knew that, so he assured Zhang Chen not to worry about it. After she inhaled and exhaled a few times, she led them with firm steps towards the residence. "Let's go; I'll just talk to him for a while, and we'll go see Ziyu's husband afterwards."
When they arrived at the residence's gate, two men dressed in military uniforms immediately stopped them, and they asked the three of them to provide their identification cards.
The two men were shocked after they read their identity cards, especially when they read Zhang Chen and Tang Ziyu's, especially since their photos on them were old, but they were so young now.
Zhang Fei silently activated his demon eyes before speaking to the two men. "Tell Wang Zetian that Zhang Chen came here to see him, and she just wants to talk to him for a while, so we won't waste too much of his time."
"All... all right..." One of them answered with a stutter and called into the house through their post's intercom. He informed the person inside about their arrival, but the other person, particularly after hearing Zhang Chen's name, asked him to chase them out.
After all, Zhang Fei's five senses were too sharp, so he could clearly hear the person's answer, which made him furious. He then grabbed their identity cards, quickly led the two women into the residence, and explained the person's words to them.
"Wait! Stop! You can't go in there!" The two men shouted as they chased after them, but Zhang Fei immediately waved his hand, causing them to fall to the ground, unconscious.
When she saw that, Zhang Chen panicked, fearing that her grandson might harm Wang Zetian and his family. "Fei'er, we-"
"Don't worry, Grandma. I will take you to see Wang Zetian, and I won't let anyone stop us." After he said that, Zhang Fei brought the two women to the residence's main building using his teleportation. Despite his anger at the person's words, he remained composed and refrained from making a scene, while Tang Ziyu promptly pressed the residence bell.
*Clack...*
Soon, a middle-aged man in his late forties opened the door for them, but he immediately pointed a gun at Zhang Fei. "I have asked my guards to chase you out, but you insist on trespassing on my residence, so I have the right to kill you."
"Is that so?" With a slight smirk, Zhang Fei asked, pulling his right hand out of Zhang Chen's embrace before grabbing the gun and pressing it against his forehead. "You want to kill me, right? I dare you to shoot me, but I assure you that you will suffer if you do."
Zhang Chen wanted to say something, but Tang Ziyu immediately grabbed her hand and pulled her back a few steps as she whispered to her. 'Aunt Chen, you have to trust him; I believe he won't do anything excessive.'
Unfortunately, Tang Ziyu did not fully understand Zhang Fei's character, so she did not know that he could be so cruel when facing problems that concerned him and those closest to him. He had even killed his own big brother with his own hands, not to mention the many other people he had killed on earth and in the Sky Jade Realm.
Zhang Chen didn't say anything in response to Tang Ziyu, but she kept looking at Zhang Fei while clasping her hands together. 'Fei'er! Please don't kill him; he is still your grandfather's descendant.'
'This idiot!' The middle-aged man was truly shocked by Zhang Fei's actions, especially considering that he had only intended to scare him into leaving. Instead, he challenged him to shoot him. He tried to remove his gun, but his grip was too strong. 'Damn it! How can he have such a strong grip?'
"Don't you have the guts to do it? Anyway, let me help you; you can shoot me directly." Zhang Fei then grabbed the gun's hammer and pulled it down. "See? Now you just need to pull the trigger and shoot me; it should be easy for you, right?"
'Madman! This guy is truly a mandman!' The middle-aged man screamed in his heart as he kept trying to pull back his gun.
"Heh!" Zhang Fei snorted softly and covered his forehead with qi. He used his aura to move the man's finger, causing the gun to immediately fire its bullet, which shocked the two women and the other people in the residence.
*Bam*
*Thud*
The middle-aged man instantly released his gun and fell on his buttocks, and his eyes widened in shock as his body trembled violently; even urine began to wet his pants. After all, Zhang Fei was still standing straight in front of him, even though he shot him from such close range, and not a drop of blood was dripping from his forehead.
"Honestly, I came here just to reunite my grandma with Wang Zetian, but you insulted us and threatened me instead." Zhang Fei then clenched the gun in his hand, shattering it into two pieces, and hurled it between the middle-aged man's legs, causing his face to turn pale and cold sweat to drench his body.
"Normally, I would kill anyone who dared to threaten me, but I don't want to dirty this place today because this will be their first meeting after half a century, so you should be thankful that you are still alive. However, if you dare to do the same thing again one day, then I will make you choose death over life."
*Drap... Drap...*
Hearing several rapid footsteps, Zhang Fei immediately looked up at their owner. He saw a middle-aged woman running hurriedly, followed by a young man and a young woman, who were about the same age as him or his big sister.
However, Zhang Fei did not pay attention to them, and his gaze was more focused on the old man walking at the very back. Although Wang Zetian was already 82 years old, his body still looked healthy, and he could even walk upright without the support of a walker or a person.
"Husband!"
"Father!"
The three people shouted loudly as they helped the middle-aged man up. The young man wanted to shout at Zhang Fei, but Wang Zhentian stopped him, and his eyes did not move from his grandson's face.
However, Tang Ziyu's bringing Zhang Chen forward immediately diverted Wang Zetian's gaze, filling his expression with a variety of complex feelings, including longing, regret, guilt, and many more.
Even though they had not met for half a century, Wang Zetian could never forget the face of his first love, but he was confused by Zhang Chen's youthful appearance.
As he continued to stare at her, Wang Zetian staggered to Zhang Chen before reaching out her cheeks, and Tang Ziyu immediately moved aside so as not to disturb them.
Unknowingly, tears fell from Wang Zetian's old eyes as he asked her. "Is this really you, Chen'er? I can never forget this face of yours; it reminds me of our first meeting decades ago."
After hearing the nickname and observing Wang Zetian's reaction, the middle-aged woman and her two children realized that the woman in front of him was his ex-lover, whom he had been forced to leave in the past, particularly because his wife had frequently told them about Zhang Chen.
Since her husband's condition looked bad and he was frightened, the middle-aged woman asked her son to help her carry him away to their room.
However, the young woman did not leave her spot, and she repeatedly glanced at Zhang Fei, who had moved to Tang Ziyu's side while hugging his waist. 'Huh? Isn't she a well-known actress? How could she be so young? Could it be that she had plastic surgery to restore her youth? Could the young man be this granny's grandson?
Moreover, this granny is also as young as me, making me doubt that she is my grandpa's ex-lover.'
Zhang Chen let out a soft sigh before grabbing Wang Zetian's hands and pressing them to her cheeks. "It's me, Brother Zetian. We haven't met for five decades, and I'm glad that we still have the chance to meet each other."
Instead of responding to her, Wang Zetian drew her into his embrace and let out a loud, mixed-feeling cry, which further complicated Zhang Chen's emotions. However, she instantly returned the hug, sobbing in his arms.
'Hey, they seem to really love each other.'
'That's true.' Zhang Fei replied with a nod of agreement before turning his attention elsewhere. He saw an old woman standing by the window as she rubbed her watery eyes. He knew that she was Wang Zetian's wife, but he sensed something unusual about her. 'Can you feel that, Mei?'
