Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2364

The real emperor looked nothing like the one in the portrait Xyla Quest had seen previously.

“That is merely a coincidence. The real emperor is different from the one you saw in the portrait, isn’t he?” the empress asked.

Xyla nodded her head and then leveled her gaze directly at the empress. “Thank you for protecting me, my husband, and our two children, Empress.”

At last, she had finally found the answers to some of her lingering questions after so long.

As it turned out, the one secretly helping them all along was the empress.

Xyla was full of gratitude for her help that she pulled Stanley Batton along to kneel before the empress.

“Thank you,” she said with utmost sincerity.

The empress chuckled. “You saved my life, and therefore it was my duty to return the favor.

“You should be thanking the emperor, too, to be honest. He is the reason why the charms I gave you worked during those crucial moments you needed them most.

“Before the nine-tailed demon fox found you, the emperor already knew I was helping you in secret. He decided to turn a blind eye when he couldn’t stand my constant naggings.

“He was even willing to guide you to the heavenly palace after defeating the nine-tailed demon fox to grant my wish of meeting you face-to-face after everything that has happened.

“You see, ordinary humans do not have the right to come to the heavenly palace,” the empress explained.

Xyla realized that the emperor and the empress were deeply in love after hearing everything she had said.

The most powerful man in the heavenly realm was also a loving husband.

“Thank you,” she addressed the emperor directly with a smile.
