Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

"Oh my God, I feel like I\'ve been blinded by his brilliance!"

"He\'s so handsome, so charismatic!"

Amidst the gasps of awe, the practitioners who had come to show off with their partners were shaken to their core.

"Oh no, I suddenly feel like such a failure. I\'m not as handsome as him, and I can\'t show off my love life like he does. Do I even deserve to be here?"

"No wonder everyone else\'s girlfriends are so pretty, and my wife... well, she\'s not. It\'s because I\'m just not up to par!"

"How dare you call me ugly! You\'ve changed! That\'s it, I\'m done with you!"

In an instant, the couples who had come to flaunt their love were now bickering among themselves, too embarrassed to continue their displays of affection.

Compared to Timothy\'s high-end display of love, their own attempts seemed like a joke.

[Ding, successfully broke up a couple, received one of Goddess Sylvia\'s favorite lollipops]

[Ding, successfully broke up a couple, received a sexy brassiere to gift to Goddess Sylvia]

Timothy: "…"

An unexpected path.

Breaking up couples can actually earn rewards?

Timothy suddenly realized that his system was not only cynical but seemed to deeply despise public displays of affection.

However, the rewards were indeed quite generous.

Especially that black lace brassiere, just one look at it made Timothy feel a bit... whoa.

If he were to give that to his wife... ahem.

He had to admit, his system was braver in some aspects than he was.

Just then, on the hillside, several graceful young women approached.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Courtship Revelry Festival hosted by the Themyscira Sect.

For this event, the Themyscira Sect will strive to create the best environment for all to enjoy."

Instantly, all eyes were drawn to them.

As rumors had it, the female disciples of the Themyscira Sect were exceptionally beautiful.

Especially these young women, who looked even more captivating in this picturesque setting.

Most importantly, since the Themyscira Sect traditionally opposed romantic relationships between men and women, the majority of its disciples were unattached women.

Who wouldn\'t be intrigued by such a sect?

For a moment, everyone\'s gaze involuntarily focused on the hillside.

Many male practitioners were so mesmerized that they completely ignored their girlfriends beside them.

"What are you looking at? See, you men are all the same.

I can\'t believe I even came with you to this Courtship Revelry Festival. What a waste!"

"And you\'re still looking! How dare you!"

Suddenly, the couples at Petalfall Glen erupted into loud arguments.

"Love is never exclusive, affection never constant.

Hmph, so much for these so-called couples.

Indeed, romantic feelings between men and women are just like this."

From a distance, Thalia scoffed as she watched the scene unfold below the hillside.

"Sect Leader, what are your plans next?" asked the Themyscira Sect\'s attendant respectfully.

"I will immediately head to the Sky Sanctuary to invite Goddess Sylvia here. I believe that once she sees such an ugly side of love, she will surely have a change of heart and lead all the women in the world to resist this most useless of things—love," Thalia replied, her eyes inadvertently filled with hope.

"Sect Leader, that\'s wise. Surely the Goddess will be moved by your insight!" The attendant was visibly excited, admiring Thalia\'s wise decision.

"However," the attendant hesitated before continuing, "at the Cherry Blossom Slope, I noticed a couple that seemed quite unique. I don\'t know who they are, but somehow, they seemed genuinely in love, different from the other couples."

"Is that so?" Thalia glanced at her, then said sternly, "What you saw are merely appearances. Remember, do not let these illusions cloud your vision. Stay true to your path and focus on your cultivation."

"I understand," the attendant bowed slightly, her voice filled with reverence, "I will wait here for your return, Sect Leader."

"I know, and I will bring Goddess Sylvia back with me. Don\'t worry, I understand her well. I will not fail today."

With those words, Thalia turned and without hesitation, leapt into the air, as if determined to succeed in her mission.

Meanwhile, at Petalfall Glen, the Themyscira Sect was fulfilling its promise by officially hosting the Courtship Revelry Festival. The slopes, covered in flower petals, were bustling with female disciples in long dresses, some dancing, others playing musical instruments. A few danced gracefully to the music, their dresses fluttering in the wind like bright, captivating flowers.

Even Sylvia was drawn in, nodding with interest, "I never knew that the pan flute could produce such beautiful music. When I have time, I might just pick it up myself."

Timothy awkwardly replied, "Honey, playing the pan flute isn\'t as easy as it looks. Are you sure you can learn it that easily?"

Feeling underestimated for the first time, Sylvia retorted a bit defiantly, "Although I\'ve never played the pan flute, I\'m quite proficient in other musical theories. Even if I haven\'t learned it before, I\'m confident I can master it overnight!"

"Honey, are you serious about this overnight thing? And about the pan flute, if you\'re going to be playing it all night, then who\'s going to comfort my... Dick. Maybe if you learn the pan flute, it could... well, never mind." Timothy coughed twice, quickly retracting the thought that almost slipped out.

His wife was still very innocent, and he shouldn\'t always have such thoughts in front of her.

Right, that\'s how it should be.

Noticing Timothy\'s odd expression, Sylvia suddenly sensed something was amiss and looked suspicious, "Strange, it feels like you\'re hiding something from me."

"No, no, of course not," Timothy immediately shook his head.

"That\'s not right, there must be something," Sylvia narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing Timothy. Soon, a sly smile appeared on her lips, "I get it, you just don\'t believe I can learn to play the pan flute overnight. How about we make a bet?"

"A bet?"

"Yes, if I can\'t learn it in one night, you can do whatever you want with me, but if I can, then you... will let me do whatever I want with you once."

Saying this, Sylvia\'s lips curled into a playful and slightly triumphant smile.

From that smile, Timothy could feel Sylvia\'s confidence, and he also believed in her talent.

However, there was one important issue that Timothy held back, unable to voice out, "Honey, did you just say I can do whatever I want?!"
