Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Timothy let out a long breath, feeling his strength slowly returning. Finally, he could relax a little.

As long as he could avoid the goddess for a while and quickly reach the Transcendence Realm, there was still a chance to regain his lost dignity.

A man can't admit he's not up to the task!

With renewed determination, Timothy strode out from the secluded mountain, his fighting spirit fully restored.

But just as he was about to leave, a familiar figure appeared before him.

Her graceful silhouette was undeniably stunning, with curves so perfect they seemed flawless.

Yet, the moment Timothy saw her, a chill ran down his spine.

"Where are you off to? How about stopping by my chambers tonight?" Sylvia's usually cold face now carried a teasing, seductive smile.

That smile, though undeniably alluring, made Timothy shudder involuntarily.

Without thinking, he blurted out the words Sylvia had said to him on their first night: "Are you crazy? What are you, some kind of beast?!"

If he had to endure another night like that, not even a Level 7 Dragon's Roar Virility Pill would save him!

But as he looked at Sylvia's soft, playful smile, Timothy knew one thing for sure: the goddess, who would normally blush at just a kiss, was dead serious this time!

Women's minds are impossible to figure out!

"You're not asking me to come to your chambers—you just want my body!" Timothy felt another shiver run down his back.

No matter how stunning Sylvia was, with her long legs and perfect figure, every move she made seemed designed to captivate him. But there was no way he was falling for this trap again.

Just then, Timothy noticed Elder Turner flying overhead with thousands of disciples in tow.

"Everyone has a duty when it comes to the Sky Sanctuary mission."

"Babe, I'm not coming to your chambers tonight. Let's catch up when I get back."

With that, Timothy forced an awkward smile, then shot into the sky without a second glance.

Sylvia didn't chase after him. Instead, she watched as Timothy hurriedly fled, and a soft laugh escaped her lips.

"So, even you have days like this, huh?"

After being teased by Timothy so many times, she had finally gotten her revenge.

At that moment, Sylvia's smile was as sweet as could be.

But as she watched him disappear into the distance, her sparkling eyes held a hint of longing and shyness.

"He's out of energy now, but when he gets back in a few days, he should have recovered by then."

Sylvia whispered to herself, feeling a wave of embarrassment wash over her. She quickly lowered her head, her cheeks turning a light shade of pink.

"Timothy, what are you doing here?"

In the sky, Elder Turner, leading the disciples, looked at Timothy in confusion.

Unlike his usual composed self, Timothy was panting, and there was a trace of panic that hadn't fully faded from his expression.

Turner had known Timothy for a long time, and while the man was full of secrets, there was one thing Turner was sure of: no matter the situation, Timothy never lost his cool.

Not even when facing two Holy Emperors in battle. Not even in front of the goddess.

No matter the opponent, Timothy always seemed calm and collected.

But today, something was different.

What could possibly have happened to make Timothy so flustered, even a little scared?

Turner couldn't hide his surprise.

"Don't ask," Timothy waved him off. "It's not a big deal, but it's not small either. Let's just say it's a matter of a man's pride."

"'A man's pride?'" Elder Turner muttered, still puzzled.

Before he could dwell on it further, Timothy spoke up, "Elder Turner, what are you doing with all these disciples?"

Turner hesitated for a moment but eventually answered, "Though Holy Emperor Featherwind is dead, there are still remnants of his forces in the sanctuary. Sky Sanctuary has mostly recovered, but the teams we sent to attack Skyfeather Sanctuary haven't been able to break through. I'm leading these disciples to provide reinforcements."

"Perfect! Elder Turner, you have to take me with you!" Timothy's face lit up with excitement.

"Uh, well, the first wave of troops we sent to Skyfeather Sanctuary was over ten thousand strong. With the reinforcements I'm bringing, we should have more than enough people…"

"But Skyfeather Sanctuary has ancient barriers. Without wings, you can't get in. Do you have a way to bypass that?" Timothy interrupted, raising an eyebrow.

Turner looked a bit embarrassed. "No, we don't." That was precisely why Sky Sanctuary's previous attempts had failed.

"You can come with us if you want," Turner said, "but it seems like the goddess has something else in mind for you." He glanced down toward the ground.

There, Sylvia's graceful figure lingered near Sky Sanctuary. She was pretending not to care, but every now and then, her gaze would sneak up toward Timothy in the sky. Her clear, autumn-like eyes seemed to shimmer with a hidden emotion.

"Forget about the goddess for now," Timothy said, sucking in a sharp breath. Not only did he have no intention of staying, but he also urged Elder Turner to leave even faster.

"Did you do something to upset her?" Turner asked, his curiosity piqued. "Did you two have a fight?"

Timothy didn't answer, but the increasingly mischievous smile on his face made Turner drop the subject. Without another word, Turner led the disciples away, riding the wind.

As Sky Sanctuary slowly disappeared behind them, Timothy finally exhaled in relief.

Seeing Timothy relax, Turner's curiosity only grew. "I remember the goddess always treating you with special care. What exactly happened?"

"Well…" Timothy sighed deeply, avoiding the question. Instead, he asked, "Do you think the goddess is beautiful?"

Turner blinked, caught off guard. "Of course she's beautiful."

"And what about her figure?" Timothy pressed.

"Uh…" Turner hesitated, clearly uncomfortable. After a moment, he cautiously replied, "I wouldn't dare disrespect Goddess Sylvia, but yes, her beauty and figure are unmatched."

Timothy continued, "And do you think she's cute?"

"Where are you going with these questions?" Turner was completely baffled.

But before he could say more, Timothy blurted out, "Exactly! She's beautiful, has an amazing figure, and she's cute. And that's exactly the problem!"

"How is that a problem? Aren't those all good things? What does any of this have to do with being a problem?" Turner was utterly dumbfounded.

Timothy's cryptic questions left him more confused than ever. Just a few days ago, rumors had spread throughout Sky Sanctuary about the goddess kissing Timothy. Some even speculated that there was something more between them. So why was Timothy acting so afraid of her now?

"Could it be…" A terrifying thought suddenly crossed Turner's mind.
