Chapter 1314 - 1314 781 Lord and Lunar Temple Holy Maiden

Chapter 1314: Chapter 781: Lord and Lunar Temple Holy Maiden (Part 1)_2 Chapter 1314: Chapter 781: Lord and Lunar Temple Holy Maiden (Part 1)_2 “Since you are so sincere in your invitation, I’ll give you this favor.”

Teresa raised an eyebrow and naturally wouldn’t easily put herself at a disadvantage. Instead, she sat down unceremoniously at the main seat directly opposite Lei Xiao, which was equal to the host’s position.

It wasn’t until she sat down that Teresa was quite surprised to find that.

The dishes in front of her were actually her favorite dishes. Although the cooking methods were different from those of the dark elves, she could find a familiar feeling in them.

“Your Excellency the Holy Maiden, these dishes were specially chosen for you by Elusa. I hope they suit your taste.”

Lei Xiao signaled the surrounding subordinates to start their meal, and at the same time turned to Teresa with a smile, “The food will be less tasty when it’s cold. Let’s eat and talk.”

“Little sister, I haven’t forgotten your taste. I didn’t have time this time, but next time I’ll make you some delicious hometown cuisine.”

Elusa, who was acting as a divine aid, was already sitting next to Teresa, giggling.

“Next time? Do you mean at your gravestone?”

Teresa glanced at her sister and then smiled at Lei Xiao, “You are very considerate, I haven’t eaten lunch yet, so I might as well accept your offer.”

With that, Teresa picked up a fork and knife, speared a small piece of herb toast, put it elegantly into her mouth, while her eyes moved and settled on another slender figure sitting in the upper position beside Lei Xiao.

She was a young woman with a delicate appearance, wearing a light golden robe, exuding a sense of aloofness. The inadvertent elegance and nobility she exhibited in her every move was enough to indicate her noble background.

Especially her head of thick dark curly hair, it entirely revealed the other party’s identity.

“Cold Flame’s fifth princess Eileen? Although I’ve seen her a few times on the battlefield from afar, the real person is quite different from the willful little princess in the intelligence. Has she grown up or is the intelligence itself wrong?”

Teresa nodded slightly as she looked at Eileen’s fair face.

As for this fifth princess of Cold Flame, the information she held was limited, which indirectly proved that her threat could be almost ignored.

However, such a weak princess of Cold Flame had grown to be able to compete with the other Cold Flame princes.

Thinking of this, Teresa’s eyes moved and looked at Lei Xiao beside her.

The reason for this situation was, of course, self-evident.

As for whether the fifth princess was like Elusa, and fell under this guy’s command, Teresa couldn’t be sure for the moment.

After all, since becoming the Moon Temple’s saintess, Teresa had seen too many human nobles, including those arrogant and proud Holy Night princes and princesses.

Getting these royal members with a superior air in their bones to bow down and submit was a hundred times more difficult than killing them directly.

While elegantly chewing, Teresa glanced at a burly figure and another slender figure at the table, which were precisely Hu Zhang and Hong Ye.

As for these two fifth-ranked powerhouses under Lei Xiao’s command, Teresa, who had secretly watched their battles, was naturally no stranger to them.

However, Teresa’s own strength was only at the first star of the fifth rank, but she possessed many powerful trump cards given by the dark elf queen.

In addition, her own Shadow Sorceress’s nimble movements made her more than capable of handling several fifth-ranked powerhouses’ attacks, easily leaving the battlefield.

Just as Teresa was pondering this in her heart, Lei Xiao introduced Elusa, Eileen, and his other subordinates at the right time.

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Li, as a hidden character, still did not show up.

After all, Lei Xiao had already grasped the conversation between the dark elf sisters through telepathy.

At the same time, Lei Xiao also instructed Elusa to test and confirm that the other party did not directly enter the realm of certain death, so naturally, she could not possibly know about Jiang Li’s existence.

After all, if Teresa had entered the Realm of Certain Death before, the Nightmare Knight would not have been completely unaware.

It wasn’t until Lei Xiao had finished introducing everyone briefly that Teresa, who had politely nodded her head, finally realized.In front of her, the dinner plate was filled to the brim by Aelusa.

Moreover, Aelusa was still talking as she continued to add more food to the plate, saying, “Little sister, this is your favorite honey pudding. When you were young, you’d often eat it and not brush your teeth afterward, and you’d get scolded a lot.”

“If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll sew your mouth shut with a shadow arrow!”

Theresa’s mouth twitched involuntarily, and she continued eating gracefully.

After a while, Aelusa kept adding more food to her plate. Theresa finally gave her a helpless look and set down her utensils.

Originally, Theresa expected Lei Xiao to start discussing important matters right after pretending to be polite. After all, things were becoming urgent.

However, until now, Lei Xiao had continued to eat with great enthusiasm as if this was just an ordinary gathering.

“What is this guy up to?”

Due to Aelusa’s interference, Theresa’s initial arrogance had already faded, and she was beginning to feel anxious.

A few moments later, Theresa couldn’t remain silent any longer. She looked at Lei Xiao and asked, “Your Excellency Guest, did you and Princess Aelie travel far and wide to find me just to have dinner?”

“Apologies, Your Excellency Holy Maiden. The food of the Holy Night Kingdom is just too delicious, I momentarily lost myself.”

Hearing Theresa’s displeasure, Lei Xiao leisurely put down his knife and fork. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and smiled, “Let’s talk about serious matters now.”

“Serious matters? Isn’t that a bit inaccurate, Your Excellency?”

In Theresa’s tone, there was a sharpness that wasn’t there before. She scoffed, “More precisely, it should be about your life and death.”

“There is some truth to that.”

Lei Xiao raised an eyebrow noncommittally, then smiled faintly, “However, since the Holy Maiden chose to come, doesn’t that mean there might still be a chance of resolving this matter?”

Lei Xiao understood clearly from the conversation between the dark elf sisters earlier.

As the Holy Maiden of the Moon Palace, Theresa obviously had a matter to inquire about. Maybe that would be the breakthrough point to delay their attack.

However, he didn’t know the specific issue they were referring to. He could only try to coax them into revealing it first and then seize the opportunity to respond.

“A chance? Maybe I’m just curious about how the distinguished guest who once defeated my Moon Palace’s Holy Warrior can come up with more flowery words to make me delay my attack.”

Theresa immediately understood Lei Xiao’s intentions and kicked the ball back, “You’ve traveled far and wide to find me, surely you have something to say to me, right?”

“Since the Holy Maiden has mentioned it, I’ll speak frankly.”

Seeing Theresa’s watertight response, Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile.

Since she was also prepared to test him out, he would make a bold move.

At the very least, he needed to let the other party know that even if they killed him, there wouldn’t be any good outcome for them.

With this thought, Lei Xiao’s smile took on a more profound meaning. He slowly said, “Holy Maiden, did you never consider that once I’m completely destroyed, the Holy Night Kingdom will be on the brink of destruction as well?”

“Ridiculous! My march to the west will only benefit the Holy Night Kingdom and do no harm! How is that related to life and death?”

Theresa sneered disdainfully, then coldly snorted, “Your Excellency Guest, don’t panic and spread fears here! This childish and unfounded threat has no effect on me!”

“Childish and unfounded threat?”

Lei Xiao’s smile grew more intense. He rested his chin in his hand and said, “Holy Maiden, why don’t you think about it again?”

Theresa stared at Lei Xiao’s playful expression, her eyebrows knitted into a tight frown.

A moment later, she had an expression of sudden realization and blurted out, “You mean you want to play it dirty?”
