Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2365

Xyla Quest felt embarrassed at her own gullibility when she heard her explanation. "All right, then. Thank you for the invitation, Empress."

The empress smiled kindly. "It's been decided then. We will have a pleasantly long chat today. I'll send you home after the meal, but you will forget everything that happened tonight once you return. "I've also repaid the kindness you once shown to me, so we are both cleared of our debts.

"To be honest, I hope you will remember me, but there are heavenly rules to heed. I can't keep breaking them by abusing my relationship with the emperor.

"Logically speaking, ordinary humans shouldn't be allowed to come here, so you must forget your experiences here. It's the only way to protect the heavenly realm's mystery," she added. Xyla nodded her comprehension. "All right, I can understand that."

"Splendid!" the empress declared happily. "Come with me. I've already set the table."

With the heavenly royalties leading the way, Xyla and Stanley Batton followed them into the backyard.

Mist surrounded the open area, where they detected a light scent of plum in the air.

Many plum flowers were in full bloom now.

It was a very comfortable environment with fresh air and the right temperature.

The place seemed enchanting to Xyla as her gaze took in everything around her.

She saw a pavilion deep in the forest of plum trees with a white jade table within. A mouth-watering spread of food and fruits was ready for them.

Xyla could smell the delicious aroma from afar as she and Stanley followed behind the other couple until they finally arrived in front of the table.

There was a total of ten dishes all laid out on the table.

Everything looked and smelled amazing.

These dishes looked like rare delicacies from the human realm with only one exception; all the dishes were glowing as if someone had applied a starry filter to them.

Apart from rare delicacies, they had various fruits commonly found back home, like peaches, apples, and cherries.

These fruits somehow seemed better in every way than they did in the human realm.

The peaches looked very juicy at the size of two fists, while the apples were a vivid bright red, similarly sized.

The cherries were a glistening red color and appeared especially tender.

Everything looked so appetizing, with the seemingly special effects in place, making Xyla feel ravenous suddenly.

She figured those peaches were

probably the same legendary flat peaches quoted in books about the heavenly realm as exceptionally juice and delicious.

She felt so lucky that she had the opportunity to taste them today.

She would bet that the apples and cherries here were also much more delicious than those from home, although these particular fruits were never mentioned in books she had read.

Stanley also seemed very interested in the delicious food on the table.

The empress chuckled and pulled her husband along to sit down.
