Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Chapter 117: Piercing Sight

[Congrats, host, on successfully merging with the Soulborn Eye!]

[Congrats, host, on unlocking the fourth meridian of the Ancient Saintly Body—Soulborn Eye.]

[Successfully unlocked Soulborn Eye abilities: Future Sight, Piercing Sight, Intimidation.]

The origins of the Soulborn Eye are incredibly deep, and its powers are formidable.

However, among these abilities, Timothy was most intrigued by...

"Piercing Sight? Is this for real? Don't mess with me, I'm just a simple, innocent guy here." Timothy's left eye widened slightly, and suddenly, a golden light flickered within.

As he glanced around at the female disciples, especially when his gaze landed on Holy Maiden Aeliana.

"Oops."

Timothy suddenly felt a warm rush in his nose, followed swiftly by a nosebleed.

"So, the Piercing Sight of the Soulborn Eye is actually real!"

The other female disciples were fine.

But when he accidentally used Piercing Sight on Holy Maiden Aeliana, Timothy almost lost his composure.

Who would have thought that little Miss Aeliana wasn't just charming and alluring, but her figure was...

Especially... it seemed even better than Goddess Sylvia's!

Who could handle such a sight!

"Timothy's got a nosebleed? Could it be he's seriously injured?"

"It's terrifying, Timothy, who had never touched the treasures of the Undead Sanctuary, managed to absorb the power of the Soulborn Eye.

But the backlash from the Soulborn Eye must be really strong, even Timothy couldn't help but suffer internal injuries."

"Right, it seems even if he barely absorbed the Soulborn Eye, there's a price to pay. Timothy suffered such severe internal injuries, if it were someone else, they probably couldn't bear it."

Seeing this, the Radiant Five Sisters hurried over: "Brother Timothy, your injuries must be severe, here, take this healing pill quickly."

"Brother Timothy, Silverelle has a precious herb here that's great for injuries."

"Brother Timothy, Goldiluna can heal you with her body, just lie in my arms."

"..."

"Step back, everyone. Timothy's internal injuries seem very severe, beyond what you can handle."

Just then, Holy Maiden Aeliana stopped the five sisters, her eyebrows furrowed, and she hurried to Timothy's side.

After all, the Soulborn Eye was a relic of the Holy Emperor from the Undead Sanctuary tens of thousands of years ago, and even she didn't fully understand it.

At this moment, Timothy didn't seem to be hurt at all, but he kept bleeding from his nose.

There must be some extremely difficult problem here.

Holy Maiden Aeliana, a bit anxious and nervous, pulled Timothy into her arms, trying to figure out what exactly was wrong with him.

But she completely overlooked Timothy's eyes, flickering with golden light.

"Oops."

Looking at the spectacular and perfect scene before him.

Timothy's nosebleed got even worse.

"System, you better shut down the Soulborn Eye, or I'm going to bleed out here!"

[Ding, disabling Piercing Sight function]

[Disabling successful]

With the Soulborn Eye shut down, Timothy's nosebleed finally stopped.

He took a couple of deep breaths, still feeling a bit shaken.

The Soulborn Eye is great and all, but using it is literally a bloody nightmare...

"You okay now?"

Seeing that Timothy's nosebleed had finally stopped, Holy Maiden Aeliana ceased channeling spiritual energy into him. She flicked her golden locks from her forehead and smiled coquettishly, "Looks like you're back with us. I saw you bleeding non-stop, staring blankly, and thought Sylvia was about to lose her husband.

But, this position we're in is quite nice, why don't you lie in my arms a bit longer?"

Noticing the seductive smile at the corner of Holy Maiden Aeliana's mouth, Timothy realized he was being held closely in her arms, their posture highly suggestive.

The many sect members around them witnessed this scene, their expressions a mix of embarrassment and astonishment.

In their eyes, Holy Maiden Aeliana had always been a sacred and untouchable figure.

They never imagined that the Holy Maiden would display such affectionate behavior towards Timothy.

If Holy Maiden wasn't joking, then could it be...

"Holy crap, Holy Maiden, please have some dignity."

Timothy suddenly felt a chill down his spine and quickly pushed Holy Maiden Aeliana away.

As comfortable as her embrace was, if the many sect members spread the word, his wife...

"Yikes."

Just thinking about Goddess Sylvia getting jealous was terrifying enough for Timothy to take several steps back, keeping a respectful distance.

This scene left everyone dumbfounded.

Facing Holy Maiden Aeliana's advances, Timothy managed to keep his composure, steady as a rock.

"Who would have thought Timothy was such a gentleman, not swayed by beauty!"

"I've heard many say Timothy, despite his talents, was quite the ladies' man, but those rumors are clearly false, Timothy is truly upright!"

"Such a steadfast heart truly makes for a tale to inspire disciples everywhere. I must make my way to the Sky Sanctuary soon and praise Timothy's noble actions to the goddess."

"Indeed, to face Holy Maiden Aeliana and not be swayed, who else but Timothy could achieve such a feat? Surely, the Holy Maiden's intimate actions were just a test of Timothy's resolve!"

With these words, the many puzzled practitioners suddenly saw the light.

Of course, a noble being like Holy Maiden Aeliana wouldn't engage in such deliberately seductive behavior.

It was just their shallow understanding that failed to see the truth.

Holy Maiden Aeliana's true intention must have been to test whether Timothy truly possessed the rumored virtues, nothing more!

Cheers and praises for Holy Maiden Aeliana's greatness and Timothy's strong character erupted.

The female disciples cheered even louder.

Holy Maiden Aeliana hadn't made a move, which meant they still had a chance with Brother Timothy!

After all, if even Holy Maiden Aeliana had truly fallen for Timothy, they would stand no chance.

It seemed, despite the many rivals for Timothy's affection, no one had yet managed to win him over completely.

After all, how difficult would it be to completely outshine the many talented female disciples who harbored feelings for Timothy?

Who else but Goddess Sylvia could possibly do that? But that was absolutely impossible...

"How unfair, I am the Holy Maiden, yet to be so cruelly rejected."

Pushed away mercilessly by Timothy, Holy Maiden Aeliana looked somewhat wronged.

Timothy chuckled, "No worries, as compensation, when we get back, I can show more affection with Goddess Sylvia in front of you."

"You!"

Recalling those overly sweet displays of affection, Holy Maiden Aeliana had never felt so speechless.

These two, always flaunting their love, did they really have to be so excessive!

"The excess is yet to come."

Timothy carefully pocketed the Energizing Herb.

But in a moment, his gaze hardened.

Because when he had activated the Soulborn Eye, he had seen something else in the forbidden land.

Perhaps, that was the real reason why the Bone Sovereign had opened the forbidden land.
