Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

"Where on earth has Timothy gone?" Sylvia looked around, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, her beautiful face tinged with worry.

And this concern was so evident that most people took notice.

The folks at Sky Sanctuary couldn't believe their eyes.

The goddess had always been known for her icy aloofness.

No matter what happened, even if it was a matter of great consequence that could sway the fate of the world, she handled it with calm indifference.

So why did she seem so anxious now?

"Could it be because Timothy is such a rare genius that even the goddess has taken notice?"

"Maybe, it's quite likely.

But for some reason, it doesn't quite seem to fit her character."

"Could it be...!"

"Hey, don't start rumors. The goddess wrote 'Uselessness of Spiritual Partners,' showing extreme aversion to romantic entanglements. It's definitely not because of that.

Do you have a death wish, spreading rumors like that?"

A few people briefly entertained a "bold" thought, but quickly dismissed it.

After all, such thoughts might be conceivable for anyone else, but absolutely not for the goddess!

"Look over there!"

Just then, above the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon, a space suddenly tore open.

From within, Timothy stepped out, floating in the air.

"Space manipulation!

Isn't that something only the masters of Ocean's Gate can handle? How can Timothy..."

But before the crowd could recover from their shock at the spatial rift, they abruptly noticed the heart in Timothy's hand.

The heart, half solid, with blood flowing through it, carried a faint golden hue.

And it exuded a majestic aura that commanded awe.

This was... the Holy Emperor's heart!

The pale golden blood was still fresh, not yet dried.

This heart of the Holy Emperor was clearly still alive!

The heart of a Holy Emperor was an incredibly precious object, what on earth...

"This heart is the heart of Holy Emperor Thunderflame, who is now dead.

Today, I use this heart to declare to the world.

The might of the goddess is not to be challenged.

Anyone who disrespects the goddess, anyone who schemes against Sky Sanctuary.

Even a Holy Emperor will meet the same fate as Holy Emperor Thunderflame, with only death as their end!"

Timothy, holding up the heart of Holy Emperor Thunderflame, looked around with a piercing gaze.

Each word he spoke was forceful and filled with an awe-inspiring authority.

"This is... the heart of Holy Emperor Thunderflame!"

When Timothy's voice fell silent, the entire place was hushed, everyone staring in shock at the figure in mid-air.

The flowing pale golden blood, bearing the majesty of the Holy Emperor, was unmistakably real.

Timothy, holding the Holy Emperor's heart, hovered in mid-air.

Despite many old dragons being far stronger than Timothy, at that moment, looking at his figure, they all felt a chill in their hearts.

Their bodies involuntarily showed signs of fear!

Although they had heard of a disciple named Timothy from Sky Sanctuary, known among his peers for his exceptional talent.

Previously, their focus had only been on Timothy's talent.

But now, Timothy's figure inspired a deep-seated reverence in their hearts.

What shocked them was not just Timothy's so-called talent, but also his strength.

Terrifying, elusive strength!

How exactly did he manage to kill Holy Emperor Thunderflame?

Even if Holy Emperor Thunderflame had been severely injured, facing a disciple of the Mystic Core, he should have been able to crush him with ease.

No one could imagine.

Nor could anyone understand.

But they were very clear, this heart of the Holy Emperor was genuinely authentic.

Using the life of Holy Emperor Thunderflame to declare to the world, this form of deterrence was far more powerful than any other method.

That was the life of a Holy Emperor!

Once word of this event spreads from the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon, those major sects that had almost forgotten the ruling power of Sky Sanctuary will surely remember the terror of the goddess and the fearsome reputation of Sky Sanctuary!

"Goddess, I'm back."

Timothy came up to Sylvia with a grin, whispering in a very soft voice, "My lady, I saw you looking worried. Could it be that you were concerned about your husband?"

"Worried about what? I was just afraid that Holy Emperor Thunderflame might escape!" Sylvia huffed, turning her head away, but a small smile unwittingly crept onto her lips.

"Holy crap?"

"Holy crap! Did you... did you feel that?"

"I think I did!"

At that moment, the crowd on the ground was roughly divided into three factions.

One part consisted of the dragons and dragon guards from the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon, another part was made up almost entirely of the captured and nearly annihilated disciples of Thunderflame Valley,and the last part was the numerous cultivators from Sky Sanctuary.

Since everyone's attention had just been focused on the space above the Shrine of the Oceanic Dragon.

They suddenly had a terrifying and unbelievable sensation.

"Why do I feel like Goddess Sylvia just huffed?"

"It shouldn't be, but it seemed like it. The thing is... why do I feel like I saw Goddess Sylvia smile?"

"I felt it too, holy crap, it must be an illusion."

"It has to be an illusion. Just now, for a moment, I actually felt like Goddess Sylvia seemed a bit thawed and adorable. I must be going crazy."

"If only it were true, that would be... too cute..."

"You guys must have been knocked silly. Goddess Sylvia, of all beings, how could she show such an expression?"

That statement snapped everyone back to reality.

They looked again at Goddess Sylvia.

Indeed, her usual icy and aloof demeanor was far from what they had felt in that fleeting moment.

"It was just an illusion after all."

Everyone sighed, dismissing the absurd thought they had entertained.

Yet, for some reason, they felt a lingering... regret?

But of course, that was impossible.

"Now that Holy Emperor Thunderflame is dead..." At that moment, Sylvia coldly turned her gaze towards the disciples of Thunderflame Valley, her hand seemingly casually clenched.

A terrifying pressure quickly took control of every Thunderflame Valley cultivator's body.

Those who dared to stir spat out blood, their spiritual foundations shattered, leaving them no room to resist.

As for those who held blades and intended to charge out, they exploded in an instant, dying a gruesome death.

What was even more unbearable for everyone was the sight of two High Priests from Thunderflame Valley, grievously injured and on the brink of death.

Both were strong practitioners from Ocean's Gate, yet they had no chance to resist.

If they hadn't still been useful, that seemingly casual gesture from her would have been enough to kill them!

This was the terrifying strength of Goddess Sylvia!

In an instant, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of submission.

They couldn't fathom how anyone in this world could possibly match the powerful Goddess Sylvia.

Indeed, even if Goddess Sylvia truly intended to find a companion, there likely wasn't any man worthy of her!
