Demonic Lust (Part 1)

At this point, Kuang Tianyou paused, tears of anguish welling in his eyes. Uncle Qiu continued, "When Ma Dana and I woke up, we found Jiang Chen gone. We also saw Tianyou and Fusheng turned into zombies. According to our ancestral teachings, we should have killed them, but Ma Dana and I couldn't bring ourselves to do it. We broke up afterward and never heard from them again. Sixty years have passed in the blink of an eye. But seven years ago, I suddenly saw them and learned their whereabouts. Guohua changed his name to Tianyou, and Xiaoqiang is now Fusheng. We, fellow sufferers, were together again. During this time, we worked together to exorcise demons. Tianyou also became a policeman. Unfortunately, Ma Dana has already passed away. We have always felt a deep sense of guilt towards Tianyou. We harmed him; otherwise, Tianyou wouldn't have had to endure so much suffering." Kuang Shihua asked. "Then why did you leave Grandma? Don't you know how much Grandma loved you?" Kuang Tianyou's eyes filled with even deeper pain. "Back then, I returned to your grandma's side, but I couldn't control my bloodlust. What am I now? A monster, a blood-sucking, immortal monster, unable to die even if I wanted to. I was afraid, afraid that one day I wouldn't be able to control myself and would turn your grandma into a monster like me, so I left her, taking Fusheng with me." "You're a coward, a heartless coward. Do you know how much Grandma loved you? She was waiting for you until the day she died. How much she wanted you to return to her side. She never resented you." "Don't say anymore, Ah Xiu, I'm sorry." A heart-wrenching pain tore at Kuang Tianyou. He could no longer suppress the regret in his heart and turned into a zombie.

Seeing this, Uncle Qiu quickly said, "Tianyou, control your emotions, don't turn into a zombie." Kuang Tianyou desperately suppressed his grief and slowly transformed back into human form. "Hua Shi, I know I was wrong. I dare not ask for your forgiveness, but I hope you know that I love you and your grandmother. All these years I have been in pain and loneliness. Sixty years, what a long time!" Kuang Hua Shi listened in silence. Later, she said that her mission was complete, and she couldn't explain anything to her superior, so she wanted to part ways there. Although Kuang Tianyou was reluctant to let her go, he couldn't persuade her to stay. He could only let her go.

The next day, Sophie, Kuang Tianyou, and Uncle Qiu returned to Hong Kong. Fusheng and Wang Zhenzhen, who had already received their calls, picked them up at the airport, and the group returned to Jiajia Building. Sophie had been told she would be returning on the next flight, so she didn't come back with them—a thoughtful gesture from Kuang Tianyou. Back in his room, Kuang Tianyou gave Wang Zhenzhen a simple answer, making up a lie to deceive her. He dared not tell the truth, as it would be too shocking. Fusheng spoke up, "Dad, Zhenzhen was so worried about you while you were gone, always talking about you." He winked at Kuang Tianyou. Zhenzhen's fair cheeks flushed, and she secretly glanced at Kuang Tianyou's expression, a mixture of shyness and delight. Kuang Tianyou was slightly surprised. He knew Wang Zhenzhen liked him a little, but Fusheng's bluntness still surprised him. He couldn't help but glance at Wang Zhenzhen, their eyes meeting. The two exchanged a glance and quickly looked away. Wang Zhenzhen was secretly delighted, her face flushing even more. That evening, Ma Xiaoling and Jin Zhengzhong returned, and the group had dinner together before resting. During dinner, when Ma Xiaoling asked about Kuang Huashi, Kuang Tianyou brushed it off by saying he had completed his mission. Fortunately, no one pressed him further, otherwise Kuang Tianyou would have been in a difficult position to answer.

The next day, Kuang Tianyou went to the police station. Officer Liu, having apparently received a notification from Interpol, spoke briefly with Kuang Tianyou, explained the situation, and then granted him three days off. Kuang Tianyou was happy to have some peace and quiet and stayed home obediently. This period had been the most complicated time in Kuang Tianyou's sixty years. Memories from many years ago flooded back, and he desperately needed time to sort them out. That evening, remembering his promise to Sophie, he went to the hotel. Entering Sophie's room, he found her just emerged from a bath. Her loose nightgown couldn't conceal her perfect curves. Her proudly erect breasts were almost spilling out. Her golden hair flowed smoothly down her back. Her snow-white, shapely legs were partially visible. Kuang Tianyou was a normal man, and after becoming a zombie, his senses had become greatly heightened. Even his most primal desires were much stronger than those of ordinary people. This was partly because zombies have stronger instincts than humans, and partly because zombies possess immortal life, making many things in the world less precious to them than to ordinary people. For example, power and money—this is why zombies always appear in bars, seducing humans and endlessly indulging in lust. It's an instinct, a way for them to release their pent-up desires. Kuang Tianyou is no exception, except that he can control his lust, which is why he hasn't sought other women. But this doesn't mean he doesn't have those needs. Just like a high-ranking monk, it's fine as long as he doesn't break his vows, but once he does, the result of years of repression will inevitably be more insane than that of an ordinary person.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Demonic Lust (Part Two)

Author: Xiao Tianyi

Demonic Lust (Part Two)

Kuang Tianyou didn't really know what zombies were. Jiang Chen probably didn't fully understand either. Jiang Chen had always been in a daze, unaware of human emotions and desires, and didn't understand why the zombies he bit would undergo such changes. Besides possessing immortality, zombies' desires far surpassed those of humans. Furthermore, zombies had a natural desire to attach themselves to the strong, like an addiction they couldn't break. Except for a few zombies with intense resentment who could break free from their instinctive attachment to the strong, most would willingly attach themselves to a powerful figure. This was one of the reasons why Sophie accepted Kuang Tianyou as her master. In short, the zombie world was a world where the strong reigned supreme. Kuang Tianyou had consumed a large amount of Jiang Chen's blood, thus acquiring Jiang Chen's power. Unfortunately, he refused to drink the blood of living people, which was why his power couldn't be fully unleashed. Even so, the power he unleashed was unmatched by any other zombie. He possessed a natural charisma that zombies couldn't resist.

Sophie had been captivated by Kuang Tianyou's charm from the very first time he displayed his power, though at the time she didn't know who he was. It wasn't until they arrived in the Netherlands and Kuang Tianyou unleashed his power again that she unhesitatingly sided with him. In her heart, she had already submitted. Of course, there were other reasons as well, which will be mentioned later.

"Master, you've come." Sophie knelt down in front of Kuang Tianyou.

"Sophie, how many times have I told you not to call me master, just call me Brother Kuang." Kuang Tianyou was very uncomfortable with Sophie calling him that. He reached out to help Sophie up. But his gaze followed Sophie's collar to her full, firm breasts. Sophie had just showered, and the top two buttons of her nightgown were undone, and she wasn't wearing a bra, so her breasts were completely exposed. He was momentarily stunned. But he quickly recovered and hurriedly helped Sophie up.

Sophie knew he would react this way, and her heart pounded for a moment. Since becoming a zombie, she had been with many men, but none had ever made her heart race like a deer. In that instant, she knew she had fallen for the man before her, not because he was her master, but because of love. A woman's love for a man. In her long life, only two men had given her this feeling: her first love and her master, Kuang Tianyou. Her first love was long dead, killed right before her eyes. She couldn't forget the desperate, painful look in his eyes as his blood was drained. She couldn't forget how she had bitten her beloved to death. "I must not give up on this man. I must have him," Sophie silently resolved.

Sophie sat across from Kuang Tianyou, her legs slightly parted, determined to seduce him. With centuries of experience, she knew how to arouse a man's desire. "Brother Kuang, what brings you here so late?" Kuang Tianyou composed himself slightly. "I've come to ask you something." "Brother Kuang, just ask whatever you want to know." "Sophie, can you tell me who turned you into a zombie, and why you're involved in drug trafficking?" Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment clouded Sophie's alluring face. "It's Robert. He's the leader of us Western European zombies, and the first zombie among us. You could say most of the Western European zombies are his subordinates. I don't know when he became a zombie, but he's our master. He's the one who turned us into zombies. He's always lived in seclusion on a small island in the Mediterranean. Ever since fifty years ago, when an Eastern zombie talked to him, he's started doing every business he could make money from. Now he owns countless conglomerates. You could say that if he wanted to, the entire world's economy would collapse overnight." "Wait, you mean, fifty years ago, an Eastern zombie talked to him?" Kuang Tianyou had a vague sense of unease. His intuition told him that the Eastern zombie was his enemy from sixty years ago. "Was his name Yamamoto Kazuo?" Kuang Tianyou asked urgently. "I don't know, but I heard Robert mention it. It seems he called that Eastern zombie Yamamoto. That zombie was very powerful; he could even fight Robert to a draw." Kuang Tianyou was no longer listening, only muttering, "Yamamoto Kazuo, Yamamoto Kazuo, so you're still alive. Our grudges should finally be settled." The weather outside seemed to understand Kuang Tianyou's mood, and a heavy rain began to fall. Suddenly, a clap of thunder boomed. Sophie, like a frightened fawn, threw herself into Kuang Tianyou's arms. "Brother Kuang, I'm scared." Kuang Tianyou stroked the beautiful woman's hair in his arms. "Don't be afraid, I'm here." Perhaps the thunder had damaged the hotel's power system, for the room's lights suddenly went out. "Brother Kuang, I've been afraid of thunder since I was little." "It's alright, I'm here, don't be afraid." Kuang Tianyou comforted the trembling Sophie in his arms. A strange feeling welled up inside him.

It's so hard! I've finally written three more chapters. Thank you all for your support; I'm very grateful for everyone's comments. I'm currently at home and don't have many opportunities to write. It'll be better in a while. I think you've all noticed that the next chapter will have a steamy scene. Do you think this is okay? I'm quite conflicted. I want to write Kuang Tianyou as a zombie who doesn't like women, but I also want to write him as a zombie with emotions and desires. What do you think I should do? I lean towards the latter, as it allows for more development in the character's personality and psychology. However, I still want to hear everyone's opinions. If you don't support the latter, I can stop writing now. Haha, I wish everyone a good mood every day, and please don't scold me. I've already explained my reasons; I really don't have many opportunities to write right now. Please be patient; there are many other good novels out there.
