In the heart of the Church Nation’s capital Vinati, a majestic and solemn cathedral stood tall, its spires piercing the clouds as if connecting with the sky.

This was the most important location in the entire Church Nation - the Silver Moon Cathedral.

After the great battle between Yumo and the Chosen One, though a third of Vinati had become ruins from the battle’s aftershocks, the Silver Moon Cathedral, as a core building, was fortunately untouched by the power.

It still maintained its noble and elegant bearing.

However now, For unknown reasons, the Cathedral’s sacred atmosphere was faintly tinged with a layer of black gauze.

Before the Cathedral’s stone gates, Black Rose family guards led by Qiu Mingtong and Xizhi, along with Holy Knights led by Bai Yanluo, solemnly guarded the place. Their expressions were serious, gazes determined, bodies emanating powerful magical and fighting spirit fluctuations.

A suppressive tense atmosphere permeated the surrounding air. Anyone trying to approach the cathedral was firmly and authoritatively stopped, whether worshippers coming to pray or Church Nation officials handling public affairs. Everyone could only watch the cathedral in confusion before leaving disappointed.

"What happened? Why suddenly not allowing entry?"

The public wondered endlessly.

Inside the Grand Cathedral,

Xiao and Kalina stood side by side, their gazes fixed on the solemn sacred Goddess statue.

No, Calling it a statue wasn’t quite appropriate anymore

Because now the Goddess statue was completely destroyed, only scattered fragments and dust remaining. In its place was a broken spatial rift, emitting deep and strange light from within, constantly twisting and vibrating like a mysterious door suspended between reality and void.

"A rift? Spatial rift? Why did it suddenly appear here?"

Staring intently at the rift, Xiao said seriously.

Xiao and Kalina appeared extremely grave facing this sudden change.

Deep strange sounds occasionally transmitted from the spatial rift, as if something was hiding behind it.

Xiao slowly drew the sword borrowed from subordinates, its blade flashing cold light in the cathedral’s bright illumination. Meanwhile Kalina took a deep breath, gathering blazing flames in her hand, ready to respond to any possible situation. The air in the cathedral became more stifling, time seeming to slow at this moment.

Though the rift had remained stable after its strange appearance and shattering of the statue, Xiao and Kalina could both feel the powerful strange force on the rift.

Normally under powerful force impacts, space’s structure would break, producing spatial rifts.

But space possessed extraordinary self-healing ability.

Broken space would quickly repair itself completely.

Therefore, even though the battle between Yumo and Asar tore the space above Vinati, these cracks quickly healed completely.

Unlike now?

To maintain a spatial rift required powerful force support. Obviously, ordinary peak 8th-level powerhouses couldn’t achieve this.

"Could it be the Abyssal Lord Lady Yumo mentioned? Eos?"

Xiao speculated.

However, his speculation was immediately denied by Kalina,

"No, it’s not... can’t feel Shadow Power from this rift, not Eos. No Shadow Power... rather, there’s divine power?"

Orange-red eyes narrowing slightly, Kalina grew more puzzled.

Divine power,

The Goddess’s power?

Deliberately tearing open a spatial rift here?

Want to summon something to deal with us? Or deal with Mother?

Xiao and Kalina’s tense gazes lingered on the spatial rift, minds filled with chains of questions and deductions. However, while they pondered the rift’s source and possible hidden purpose, the cathedral’s atmosphere suddenly underwent a subtle change.

Hm?

This aura is?!

"Mother?!!"

Suddenly turning to look behind, Kalina’s expression instantly became joyful.

At this moment, Under their respectful gazes, A strange tremor crossed space, then a swarm of bloody butterflies unexpectedly appeared in the cathedral’s center, their wings gently flapping as if playing a mysterious ancient melody. Surrounded by these bloody butterflies’ circling dance, a gorgeous figure slowly descended - it was Yumo, who had received Xiao’s notice not long ago.

Of course, Yumo didn’t come alone, Mengxi descended with her.

Seeing her mother appear with Mengxi, seeing Mengxi holding her mother’s hand, a barely noticeable flash of jealousy crossed Kalina’s eyes.

Though long accepting this Girl of Destiny’s unusual relationship with her mother, Kalina still instinctively felt displeasure every time seeing their intimate actions.

However, as the Abyss Demon family’s great actress, Kalina quickly hid her emotions, respectfully approaching the black-haired girl.

"Mother."

"Kalina, how’s the situation now? That, the rift you mentioned?"

"The rift... currently has no activity."

Kalina turned around, complexly scanning that spatial rift rippling with strange light.

"We’re not quite sure how it appeared, but seems it tore open from inside the Goddess statue. Can feel divine power from the rift."

"Mm, indeed."

The moment arriving at Silver Moon Cathedral, Yumo noticed the divine power emanating from the rift.

Staring at that deep rift, Yumo’s heart involuntarily started pounding, her gaze full of mixed emotions.

Meanwhile, Kalina, always skilled at reading people, quickly noticed her Mother’s unusual expression,

"What’s wrong, Mother? Do you know why this rift appeared here?"

"About that..."

Without directly answering Kalina’s words, Yumo bit her lip.

The earlier scene of conversing with Maya in the consciousness space replayed like slides in Yumo’s mind.

---

"Speaking of which, Yumo, do you still have attachment to your previous world?"

"Attachment? Saying there’s none would be impossible... more or less, there’s still some."

"Then do you want to go back and look?"

"Ah? Go, go back?"

"Yes, do you remember what I promised before sending you to the Ancita continent? I said, after you complete the trial, I’ll give you freedom, let you do as you wish, even, let you return to your original world~"

---

Return to the original world,

This power is Maya’s...

Which means,

This isn’t just a spatial rift, but a space-time gate to the outside world, or rather, to my original world.

"..."

Facing such a rift possibly connecting to her home, Yumo fell silent.

Though knowing the Goddess kept her promise, knowing this gate might lead to her world, Yumo couldn’t feel happy at all.

After a silence, the black-haired girl waved her hand,

Powerful crimson Shadow Power spiraled around the spatial rift, sealing the rift and its vast emanating energy within a barrier.

"Kalina, don’t worry about the rift, I’ll handle this."

"Mother?"

Then, after merely glancing at the rift twice, Yumo heavily turned to walk toward the temple’s main doors.

Leaving Xiao and Kalina standing bewildered in place.

Meanwhile,

Mengxi, hands in pockets, cast a dissatisfied gaze toward that spatial rift covered in sacred aura.
