Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 1030: The Speechless Mengxi and Silly Yumo
1/2
In the Silver Moon Temple’s tranquil depths, Yumo led Mengxi through the soaring halls to the altar before the spatial rift. Cold moonlight filtered through the temple’s glass windows, bathing them in a gentle silver veil. The air near the rift vibrated with energy, making everything around them feel still and solemn.
Unlike daytime, the grand cathedral was empty at night. After sealing off this space completely, Xiao and Kalina had gone off to their own tasks. In the vast space, only two beautiful young women remained.
In this atmosphere, Mengxi nervously gripped Yumo’s hand, eyes fixed on the fluctuating light within the rift, feeling the divine power radiating from it.
"Returning to your original world, Yumo, don’t you want that? Don’t you miss your previous world?"
"Of course I do. That’s where I grew up, where my family and friends are. How could I not miss it?"
"Then..."
"The thing is, after hundreds of years, what’s the point of going back? Everything’s changed now, hasn’t it? The people I truly cared about are all gone, aren’t they? Even if I miss it, my only attachment now is probably just wanting to see what that world has become. That’s all. For who I am now, what matters most is this world, where there are so many I care about - my adorable children, the Black Rose family, countless lovable ones in the forest."
Yumo said with mixed emotions.
Hearing these words, Mengxi walked toward the spatial rift with complicated feelings:
"So, is that why you’re so resistant to Mother asking you to return? Is she forcing you to go back?"
"From what your mother said, yes. I’ve completed the trial, so I shouldn’t stay in the trial space anymore."
"In that case, why don’t you just take your cuties and the Black Rose with you?"
"No, it’s not that simple."
Yumo shook her head, directly rejecting Mengxi’s suggestion.
"Youlan, Pipi, Kalina, and the others are Abyssal Demons. The outside world might not suit them. You know, Demons are feared out there too. I don’t want them to become targets. Besides, Kalina and the Black Rose members all grew up in this world. How can I ask them to leave? This is their homeland. Everything they’ve worked for all these years is here."
"..."
"More importantly, your mother... won’t let me take them. Even if I could, it would only be a few."
"What?"
Hearing this, Mengxi’s brows instantly furrowed in confusion.
"W-why would she do that?"
"Because this is a trial space..."
"..."
Without saying more, a sudden understanding flashed in Mengxi’s light purple eyes.
Of course, This was a trial space. It was a unique place created by the Creator, most suitable for cultivation among countless timestreams. Yumo was an outsider; after learning to control her power, she had completed the trial and needed to leave the trial space for the next batch of trial-takers.
Yumo’s children and the Black Rose family had become inseparably linked to this world.
If Yumo took them all away, the order of the Ancita continent would collapse, and uncontrolled Abyssal Demons would slaughter all life. Such an apocalyptic scene would make it impossible to nurture newcomers.
This must be Mother’s reasoning.
Realizing this, Mengxi took a deep breath, as her emotions complicated.
"So, Sister’s dilemma is that you don’t want to leave this world, don’t want to leave those children, right?"
"Mm."
"And you’re afraid to tell Kalina and Xiao because you don’t want them to worry?"
"Mm... and, and I’m afraid they’ll think I’m abandoning them."
Yumo anxiously gripped her skirt hem.
"I see."
Meanwhile,
A small white wolf and a small gray bird had secretly sneaked into the Silver Moon Cathedral, perching on the rafters to eavesdrop curiously on the conversation below. Despite their innocent appearance, they were actually powerful Demon Kings.
Indeed, These two little ones were the sisters Limo and Liyu.

While playing in the Winter Forest, they noticed their mother was missing and immediately followed her scent through the teleportation array to the Holy Capital Vinati, sneaking into the Silver Moon Cathedral.
The moment Limo saw the black-haired girl below, she had the urge to rush down and nuzzle against her mother, but thankfully Liyu pressed against her with soft wings to stop her.
"Chirp! Chirp!" (Quiet, sister! Mother and Mengxi seem to be discussing something important!)
"Meow~" (Okay.)
Though they were eavesdropping, Limo clearly had no such intention,
The little one’s eyes sparkled with concern, ears perked up, her only focus was watching her mother below, fantasizing about what delicious food she might cook tonight - hopefully meat!! There must be meat!!
The more meat the better!
As she thought this, tears of anticipation rolled down the little white wolf’s cheeks.
In contrast, the little gray bird huddled with folded wings, intently listening to the conversation below.
Behind them was an equally adorable honey-haired little loli - Youlan, who had followed out of concern for her two sisters.
Looking at her sisters’ backs, Youlan shook her head helplessly.
What makes you two think Mother hasn’t noticed you?
Still daring to eavesdrop,
Aren’t you afraid of getting the feather duster?
Youlan felt exhausted by her sisters’ silly eavesdropping behavior. Limo was always silly anyway. As for Liyu... she was quite clever in human form, but in bird form, she seemed just as foolish as Limo...
Of course, Youlan wouldn’t just watch her sisters get exposed; she didn’t want to see them get scolded.
Besides, The conversation between her Mother and the Girl of Destiny also intrigued her.
"Another world? Going back? What’s this all about?"
Youlan also wanted to understand what Yumo and Mengxi were discussing.
So when the two cute creatures snuck into the Silver Moon Cathedral, Youlan activated the tenth movement of the Crescent Moon - Hesitation. This shrouded herself and her sisters, and as long as they didn’t use power and just stayed quietly cute, Yumo wouldn’t notice them. Indeed, the perception-blocking technique Youlan developed from studying Yumo’s Shadow Power wavelength for hundreds of years proved quite effective.
Plus, with Yumo’s attention completely focused on her troubled conversation with Mengxi, she really hadn’t noticed their infiltration.
And so, Youlan and the other two Abyssal Demons joined the spying squad.
Meanwhile, Before the spatial rift, Yumo finally expressed her honest opinion to Mengxi’s questioning.
"I want to stay in this world and change its destiny as a trial space. In some ways, I quite agree with Tania’s views. No matter what... I, I don’t want my children, their descendants... and this entire world to become toys for other trial-takers anymore."
"Is sister’s hesitation because making this decision might put you at odds with my mother?"
"Mm."
Yumo nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
After getting this response, Mengxi covered her face with her hand, falling into silence.
Seeing Mengxi like this, Yumo bit her lip guiltily.
Indeed, suddenly telling her such important news would trouble her too.
After all, my thoughts go against her mother’s wishes...
"I know this is complicated, Mengxi. Don’t worry about it, it’s okay if you can’t give advice right away..."
However, before Yumo could finish, Mengxi interrupted her,
"What’s so damn complicated about this?!!"
"Eh?!"
Hearing these words, Yumo was stunned.
Before she could react, Mengxi’s hands were squishing her cheeks:
"And here I thought you were worried about something serious?! This little thing? Something so easily solved?! Why make such a fuss about it? Sister... you really are a bit silly, aren’t you?"
