In the warm and cold month of March, the temperature had already risen quietly. Spring was approaching, and the trees on both sides of the asphalt road had already sprouted new green shoots.

These were the suburbs. There were very few people here, but the scenery was beautiful.

At the end of the winding road was a holy and majestic church. Behind the church was a towering green mountain. From afar, the exquisite spire of the church and the clouds surrounding the green mountain could be seen.

Other churches stood in the most prosperous city center, symbolizing the opposition between heaven and earth, and allowing people to enter to admire and atone for their sins. However, this church was different. Unless invited here, no one was allowed to enter.

The driver sent by the Torres family, Ben Carson, was already waiting for Lauren Torres to appear at the church’s entrance.

The Torres family had placed their only daughter in this mysterious church for four years. Counting the time, Lauren was already four and a half years old.

At this moment, Lauren was still in the church, surrounded by a group of men and women.

These men and women had friendly faces. Some were wearing cassocks, while others were wearing cowls. One of the men wearing a cassock was pushing a man in a cowl. “What are you doing here in our church? Go back to your abbey. Why are you still visiting us?”

The abbey this man was talking about was located on the right side of the church. It looked old and dilapidated, hence it was very inconspicuous.

“Can’t I send Lauren off?!” The man in the cowl retorted.

Lauren, who was surrounded by these men and women, was sitting on a small stool. In her left hand was an exquisite cross necklace, and in her right hand was a talisman mantra.

“Lauren, no matter what kind of spirit you meet, you can use this cross to ensure your safety.”

“You can only use it when you meet a demon. When you meet a ghost from our country, you still have to use the mantra we taught you!”

“Who said that? What do you mean?”

“What do you mean? Am I wrong?”

Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Lauren blinked her eyes and said, “Uncles, stop arguing. I will use it in the future!”
