    Chapter 37: Oh No, the Succubus Estrous Period Came Early…

    Su Sheng’s pale purple eyes were slightly unfocused, and his face uncontrollably rubbed lightly against his clothes in small movements.

    The soft fabric wrapped around him, and the Demon King’s scent lingered at his nose. This scent barely soothed his anxious heart, but as the feeling of hunger intensified, an insatiable sensation burned up from his lower abdomen like fire.

    Why… isn’t it enough…?

    Su Sheng stared wide-eyed, thinking blankly.

    The night in The Abyss was cold; even in summer, the temperature wouldn’t rise much.

    At that moment, a cold wind blew across the wasteland, sweeping past Su Sheng. The chill suppressed some of the heat and stimulated Su Sheng’s brain.

    The purple in the depths of his eyes receded slightly, and Su Sheng managed to regain some clarity.

    Realizing what he was doing, he abruptly stood up.

    His expression could no longer be described as merely unpleasant. At this moment, he desperately wanted to tear off the clothes carrying the Demon King’s scent and throw them far away, but then he would have nothing to wear.

    Because he was only wearing a thin robe.

    After a long silence, he used his remaining willpower to control himself and walk forward. He grabbed his tail, preventing it from dragging on the ground.

    He needed to find a pool of water, at least to endure this estrous period first.

    After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Sheng’s eyes lit up when he saw a small lake ahead and walked toward it.

    But as he got closer, he realized that although there was a lake, there were several human-form succubi inside, playfully interacting with their tails and coupling in pairs.

    Su Sheng crouched in the grass, hesitated for a moment, and then turned to walk away. He didn’t have the habit of bathing with others, especially not with succubi known for their lust.

    However, what Su Sheng didn’t see was that the few succubi in the lake all looked in his direction right after he turned around.

    After only a few steps, Su Sheng stopped. He didn’t know why, but he could feel that the estrous period he had just suppressed was being prematurely induced!

    A wave of weakness surged through his body. He stumbled, braced himself against a large tree nearby, and then slowly knelt down. His heavy breathing was clearly audible in the bushes. Having no other choice, he used all his strength to lean against the large tree, preparing to rest for a while.

    It seemed he had no choice but to go to the lake, he thought, closing his eyes.

    A sound seemed to come from behind him, possibly from those succubi, but when he looked back, they were still playing in the same spot.

    Was it a hallucination?

    Su Sheng lowered his head, a chill rising in his eyes.

    The rustling sound near the lake occurred again. Su Sheng didn’t look up this time. Instead, he plucked a leaf from the side, used the flying leaf as a blade, and flicked it out.

    A scream came from the lake. The playing succubi all stopped and began walking toward the shore.

    Su Sheng didn’t move, allowing the four succubi to surround him.

    “Oh, I wondered who was bold enough to attack us. Turns out it’s a little succubus in heat.”

    The succubus standing in the center grabbed his chin. He was forced to look up, meeting the succubus’s lustful and depraved gaze.

    When the remaining three succubi saw Su Sheng, their tails behind them began to wag excitedly in unison.

    “Such a beautiful succubus, and such a rare eye color,” one of them exclaimed excitedly.

    “Little succubus, it looks like your estrous period has arrived, but your partner is late. How about you try us first?”

    “We guarantee we can satisfy you and help you comfortably get through this period.”

    The tall succubus in the middle leaned down slightly, clearly impatient but maintaining a pretense of decency as he asked.

    Su Sheng quickly glanced at the succubi. The other three were not as tall or handsome as this one, and their positions subtly indicated that this one was the leader.

    He subtly curved his lips, lowered his head slightly, revealing a section of his snow-white neck, and said, “Alright.”

    As soon as he spoke, the four succubi became visibly excited. One reached out greedily, but another succubus slapped the hand away, “Let me go first!” However, none of them noticed that Su Sheng had quietly gripped a medium-sized branch nearby.

    The leader, unable to wait any longer, lunged forward. Just as the opponent was about to touch his clothes, a slight snapping sound occurred. A branch, like a sharp sword, pierced the succubus’s heart. Blood gushed out, splashing all over Su Sheng.

    The succubus looked at Su Sheng in disbelief, then his expression slowly froze, and he fell down.

    The other three were stunned in horror. Su Sheng didn’t give them time to react. He quickly sprang up, spun around, and twisted the necks of the two closest succubi, one with each hand.

    His fierce gaze met the last succubus. That succubus knelt down, begging for mercy, but Su Sheng drew out a stick from the side and stabbed him.

    After eliminating these four potential problems, Su Sheng shook the blood from his hands and walked toward the lake.

    However, Su Sheng was ultimately not a demon and did not understand succubi. He didn’t know that getting stained with the blood of his own kind would only make his estrous period arrive faster and more violently.

    He staggered toward the lake. Yet, just a few steps away, Su Sheng could no longer hold on.

    He slowly squatted down, then lay on the ground. His unfocused eyes were filled with longing for a partner. He was only one step away from the water, and the coolness of the water was enough to restore his sanity, but that final step was hijacked by desire, forcing him to stop.

    Vaguely, a succubus walked into his view—it seemed to be the one he had killed last.

    …Did I not kill him?

    Su Sheng thought hazily.

    He felt a wave of coolness as his clothes were slowly undone, but he couldn’t resist, nor was he able to.

    “You are mine,” the succubus said.

    Su Sheng felt dizzy and a little desperate. He had lost all his strength and absolutely could not resist. At the same time, he felt a strange sadness, but when he tried to trace the source, he found himself avoiding this emotion.

    In a trance, he saw a blonde, blue-eyed prince walk up from behind and stomp on the hand reaching for him. The appearance was strikingly similar to Loren.

    Before he could react, his body completely relaxed.

    A familiar voice, belonging to the Demon King, seemed to sound in his ear, laced with temptation: “Are you still not giving up?”

    “Just say the word ‘surrender,’ and I promise, this feeling that makes you so uncomfortable will instantly vanish.”

    “You will find pleasure.”

    Su Sheng struggled, wanting to prop himself up, but fell heavily back to the ground. He used all his strength to try and see clearly, but his will ultimately could not overcome his extremely fatigued body. He couldn’t see what was in front of him, but a surge of energy kept him going, allowing him to whisper four words:

    “Dream on.”

    After that, he completely lost consciousness.

    .

    When he woke up again, that shameful feeling had largely subsided. He struggled to climb up and searched the surroundings, but he didn’t see the body of the succubus.

    The conversation that occurred before he passed out seemed like a dream born of unconsciousness.

    Feeling that his body had recovered some strength, though still far less than before, he knew that he had barely managed to get through this estrous period. As long as it wasn’t induced again, he wouldn’t lose his mind again for a short time.

    Thinking this, he suddenly remembered what one of the succubi had said before he fainted—”Such a rare eye color.”

    Su Sheng frowned slightly, deep in thought.

    The implication of that statement was that his current eye color was extremely rare even among succubi.

    So, were his physical changes and irregular estrous periods also related to his eye color?

    Su Sheng subconsciously rubbed his brow. The sharp fingernails pricked his forehead, and he realized his nails had suddenly grown longer, which must also be related to the estrous period.

    After clipping his nails, he left the lake. The most important thing now was to find a map and leave this place.

    As for what the Demon King had said, it wasn’t important.

    Following the tracks on the road, he found the location of the main City-State, but he chose not to enter immediately. Instead, he hid in a secluded, hard-to-notice path far away.

    Loren’s voice seemed to surface in his ear again.

    “Broaden your perspective, my dear Norton. If demons can rob humans, why can’t humans rob demons?”

    Su Sheng’s eyes darkened. He tightened his grip on the dagger he had stripped from the succubus and plunged it fiercely into a passing demon.

    After obtaining the necessary information and currency, Su Sheng disposed of the demon in his hands.

    Su Sheng had prepared to be questioned about his demon identification, but unexpectedly, the succubus guarding the gate merely glanced at him and let him through.

    Once inside the Succubus City-State, he expertly headed toward the trading market.

    At the market, a dazzling array of demonic goods was displayed before him. A demon running a stall saw him pass by, quickly grabbed the corner of his robe, and flashed a standard welcoming smile: “Customer, our shop has everything you need. What can I get for you?”

    Su Sheng was led into the shop. Fortunately, this small shop didn’t display any strange items, allowing him to silently breathe a sigh of relief. After all, he didn’t want to see those disgusting things again.

    The succubus who led him in looked him up and down, noted his eye color, and said with a meaningful smile, “Oh, your eye color looks quite unusual, and it seems your partner isn’t with you? If you don’t want to casually mate with other demons, our shop has something very suitable for your constitution.”

    Su Sheng frowned and asked, “Do you have a map?”

    The succubus choked for a moment, apparently not expecting him to ask for such a thing.

    Su Sheng said impatiently, “Do you?”

    The succubus quickly nodded: “Yes, yes, yes. We have maps of the main City-State, the entire Succubus City-State, and even The Abyss. They might be a bit old and inaccurate, but the routes are correct… Do you need one?”

    Su Sheng nodded and said, “Give me a map of The Abyss.”

    The succubus handed him the map. Su Sheng opened it and couldn’t help but frown. The crudeness of this map was simply incomparable to the one Loren had given him back then.

    As he was leaving, Su Sheng spoke in a cold, extremely reluctant voice: “Give me one of those things you mentioned just now.”

    .

    After acquiring all the necessary items, Su Sheng prepared to leave the city. The queue to exit was very long. Just then, a succubus suddenly ran in through the city gate.

    The guards chasing him shouted for him to be caught.

    The pursued succubus, running in panic, was heading toward Su Sheng. He stumbled and fell right in front of Su Sheng. The guard mercilessly killed the succubus. The moment the blade plunged in, the blood splattered all over Su Sheng.

    Su Sheng’s face turned extremely grim.

    The guard saw Su Sheng and bowed slightly in apology, but when the guard looked up, he froze.

    In plain sight, Su Sheng felt his estrous period advance again.

    A feeling of emptiness, even stronger than before, quickly dominated his body, and his face instantly turned incredibly pale.

    He quietly clenched his tail, concealing his body within the crowd of demons. A few seconds later, a succubus scent, which only he couldn’t smell, quietly spread.

    A tall succubus guard pushed through the crowd and looked down at him, his eyes hazy and greedy: “Your estrous period has arrived. Do you need help?”
