[Naturally Oblivious Straight Male Dragon-Pride Protagonist Bottom & Pure-Hearted, Arrogant, and Boastful Demon Cat Top]
Bai Shu is a human-demon hybrid who has suffered bullying since childhood.
Unwilling to endure humiliation, he devoted himself to hard cultivation every day. At last, he stumbled upon an immortal opportunity and rose from useless nobody to powerhouse. He would play the pig to eat the tiger, challenge opponents above his level, and become a legendary Dragon-Pride hero in the cultivation world.
Then, an accident sent him into the world of a superpower battle manga.
The System forcibly bound to him said:
"Congratulations, Host! You've awakened the supreme succubus bloodline. You just need to have sex with people to grow stronger. It's a risk-free way to cultivate, and no one can match your speed!"
Bai Shu: "..."
So the "demon" in human-demon hybrid meant succubus.

Bai Shu refuses to drain others' essence, so his spiritual energy only flows out and never replenishes.
Starving until his mind was hazy, he accidentally kissed an enemy who had pursued him across worlds right in the middle of a fight.
That enemy was the nemesis he'd offended when he first began cultivating, and who had harried him ever since. Bai Shu had never managed to defeat him, even when he was on the verge of ascension.
Seeing the other man's face darken as if he'd swallowed ten thousand flies, Bai Shu finally accepted his fate.
"Xin Yi, I'm going to die anyway, so I'll be honest with you. Cultivating immortality is pretty boring, but after all these years of fighting and bickering with you, at least it's been entertaining."
Just as he thought he was about to be run through the heart with a sword, the other man snorted, took off his coat, and draped it over the vivid demon markings on Bai Shu's abdomen.
"Hmph. Killing you in this state wouldn't be any fun."
Watching the other man walk away, Bai Shu's slow mind finally figured something out:
Dude, you're a tsundere too!

From then on, whenever Bai Shu was ravenous, Xin Yi would just happen to show up nearby.
"Don't get the wrong idea. I'm here to make fun of you."
"Tsk. You still haven't recovered your cultivation. Want me to generously share some of my essence with you?"
"You can't even handle that trash opponent. I say you should become a succubus already and find a powerful cultivation partner to dual cultivate with."
Demon Lord Xin Yi even went so far as to kiss him every day so he could fight Bai Shu once his cultivation was restored. Deeply moved, Bai Shu finally decided to put aside his prejudice and accept his succubus constitution:
"Good brother, don't worry. For your sake, I'll find a suitable cultivation partner! Do you have anyone in mind?"
Unexpectedly, the other man flew into a rage, pinned him down, and gritted his teeth.
"Anyone else is fine, but I... can't be?"
