Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Thinking back, it's been nearly a hundred years since the Undead Sanctuary last saw a Holy Emperor-level powerhouse.

Even though they've been without a Holy Emperor for centuries, the Undead Sanctuary, as one of the ancient holy lands, still has enough heritage and traditions to maintain their pride.

No one expected the Undead Sanctuary to voluntarily submit!

Maybe, that's the majesty of Goddess Sylvia.

"Oh, the Undead Sanctuary?

But really, what's in it for me if I accept your submission?"

Sylvia looked indifferently at the envoy from the Undead Sanctuary, who had a white skeletal skull hanging from his left shoulder.

"The Undead Sanctuary is willing to open the Grim Expanse to all sects present."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the envoy from the Undead Sanctuary.

"The Grim Expanse is a top-secret area of the Undead Sanctuary, almost hiding countless legacies of the holy land.

How could the Undead Sanctuary possibly open it to outsiders!"

"It looks like they're trying to gain the goddess's trust, but this is really..."

Unexpectedly, Sylvia calmly agreed, "If you can open the forbidden area as agreed, then I can accept your submission."

"The Undead Sanctuary is willing to open the forbidden area to the goddess and all sects affiliated with the Sky Sanctuary, effective immediately." The Wraith Envoy immediately bowed in response.

Beyond everyone's expectations, it seemed that the Grim Expanse was really going to be opened!

...

After a long while, all the major sects said their goodbyes and left.

Different from the direction taken by others, a few, including Faelan, quietly walked together towards the distance.

Almost reaching their own sect's gate, Faelan finally met the eyes of his companions, nodded knowingly, and stopped.

"Faelan, are you sure everything you said is true?"

Abbot Fenvin from the Radiant Monastery couldn't hide his astonishment, staring intently at Faelan.

Sect leaders Darius from Sword Peak Sect and Leon from Goldspire Peak Sect also showed disbelief.

"What exactly... did you see?"

After a moment of silence, Faelan finally spoke with a slight tremble in his voice, "I saw with my own eyes, the goddess's body wrapped in red threads symbolizing marital ties.

More importantly, although these threads seemed vast, upon closer inspection, there was only one."

Everyone gasped.

Abbot Fenvin, puzzled, asked, "I've always lived in the Monastery and am not familiar with these marital threads. How did you interpret them, Faelan?"

Faelan seemed still shaken, cautiously looked around, and after a long while, finally answered, "If the red threads around Goddess Sylvia came from many, it would mean that several people are simultaneously enamored with her.

Such marital threads are unlikely to lead to anything but are merely the result of one-sided infatuation by male practitioners, which will soon dissipate.

But now, the countless marital threads tightly wrapped around Goddess Sylvia come from just one.

This probably means that the source of this marital thread has formed a very strong bond with Goddess Sylvia, even the goddess herself has developed an indelible affection for him."

Faelan looked at the others, clearly still not recovered from the shock, "Think about it, Goddess Sylvia is ranked second in the Enchanting Goddess Rankings, unimaginably beautiful and ethereal.

Even in the whole world, there is no woman who can match Goddess Sylvia's beauty.

It's clear, although Goddess Sylvia is cold and aloof, untouched by the mundane, imagine how many secretly admire her.

But now, this single red thread has dispelled all the messy marital threads directed towards Goddess Sylvia and is tightly intertwined with the goddess.

This clearly shows that the bond between this person and the goddess is deeper than we can imagine.

This affection is not one-sided,even Goddess Sylvia is deeply in love with that person!"

At this, all three were greatly astonished.

Faelan's analysis was flawless, backed by the secret methods passed down through generations.

So, it's true—Goddess Sylvia really has a lover! This isn't just some rumor!

If it were anyone else, maybe it wouldn't be such a big deal.

After all, everyone has desires, even Holy Emperor-level powerhouses.

It's not uncommon for such powerhouses to have partners or even multiple lovers at the same time.

But this is Goddess Sylvia we're talking about!

She's the one who wrote "Uselessness of Spiritual Partners," known for her cold aloofness. Since becoming the supreme goddess, no one has dared approach her!

Anyone might choose a partner, but the idea of Goddess Sylvia having one is the hardest for them to believe.

"But let's not jump to conclusions about whether it's really possible that the goddess has fallen for someone.

If there really is such a person, then who could he be?"

Their voices trembled slightly as they spoke.

"I've been thinking about this for a while now."

Faelan paused for a moment before finally stating firmly, "First off, I think we can rule out Timothy."

"Why do you conclude that, Faelan?"

All three looked at him with respect, amazed at Faelan's incredible insight.

"It's quite simple."

Faelan stroked his graying beard, looking a bit pleased with himself: "I've analyzed it keenly.

There are many reasons, but I'll just mention one.

Over the years, countless have pursued the goddess.

Among them, many were handsome, wealthy, and talented, but not one could touch the goddess's heart.

This alone shows that what ordinary women value most—looks, wealth, and talent—are actually disadvantages in the eyes of the goddess.

And Timothy, who maxes out all these qualities and even adds shamelessness to the mix, even if he awakened the Enlightenment Body today, it's absolutely impossible for him to be the one."

"I see, that's just like you, Faelan, your extraordinary thinking is indeed beyond our reach!"

Abbot Fenvin, Darius, and Leon all exclaimed in admiration, filled with respect.

"But if it's not Timothy, then who could it be?"

"I have my suspicions about that too."

Faelan hesitated for a moment, then spoke with a bit of mystery and caution, "I suspect it might be... Holy Maiden Aeliana, or Zephyra!"

"Huh?" All three were stunned.

"No, no, Faelan, you must be wrong, how could that be?"

"Why not? The goddess has been single for so many years, it's very possible her sexual orientation is different!"

"Even so, it's absolutely impossible!"

"..."

"Alright then."

After a long silence, Faelan finally sighed and said, "Since that's the case, I have another way."

He then pulled out an herb from his pocket.

"This is the Energizing Herb. While it's not as potent as the legendary Dragon's Roar Virility Pill, each plant is still very powerful.

If the goddess really has a boyfriend, then this person will definitely try to obtain this herb from me, and then..."
