Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1834

Sophie Kenwick let out a long helpless sigh as she followed Xyla Quest up to the bedroom and then pulled into a huge closet.

Xyla led her to a rack of clothes, placing each item of clothing against her to replace a suitable outfit, all while Sophie looked somewhat disoriented.

Although she had been confined within the underground palace, she was aware of what happened outside.

The divine techniques she had cultivated allowed her soul to wander around the outside world freely.

Nevertheless, Sophie's frame of mind remained at the time when she lived in Warrington.

She felt repulsed at the sight of clothes that couldn't fully cover her body.

After hopping around, Xyla chose a white shirt and a khaki woolen pleated skirt, as well as a khaki British-style coat, carefully placing them against the girl for a fitting.

Sophie was very tall with a petite frame and a great physique. After making the measurements, Xyla could already visualize her in that outfit, certain she would look flattering in them.

With a pleased look on her face, Xyla placed the outfit she had selected into Sophie's hands. "How about these? Do you like them?"

Sophie subconsciously accepted the clothes, albeit reluctantly while shaking her head fervently.

A look of surprise appeared in Xyla's eyes. "What's the matter?"

However, as soon as she asked the question, she could think of a possible reason.

Xyla immediately chuckled. "Perhaps you can't accept it?"

Xyla had overlooked this point.

Although Sophie lived in the present, she was still accustomed to the culture and practices that belonged to the past.

People were more conservative during ancient times, where they preserved their modesty.

Anyone who wore clothes like these in the past would be severely reprimanded.

"Society is constantly progressing, and the way everyone dresses is also improving. In this day and age, people are dressed in such fashion now.

"Besides, nobody will judge you. You'll look good in these clothes. Trust me, okay?" Xyla added in a kind and soft tone.

Circumstances determined that Xyla and Sophie would meet, and the latter would even consider her as her Master. Naturally, she needed to take good care of Sophie.

She also seemed like a woeful girl, and it made Xyla want to look after her.

Sophie still seemed upset. "Hmm, I know what the world has become... I've seen everything when my soul wandered around. I am aware of how people live.

"But deep down, I still can't accept it

as I wasn't raised this way. My father said that ladies should not show their skin so cavalierly, Sophie explained dutifully.

Xyla affectionately rumpled her hair. "Times have changed, Sophie. Since you're going to live in this present time, you would have to slowly learn to adapt and accept this new way of life What do you think?"

Sophie nodded obediently after a spell, a look of resignation appearing on her face. "Okay. All right, Master Since I'm going to follow you from now on, I will heed your advice. If you're asking me to wear it, then I'll have to wear it."

Xyla was her Master, so she needed to listen to what she said.
