Girls in a Matriarchal World Are Just Too Scary

Lin Qingyue wanted to keep some distance from him, but after flying dozens of meters high and seeing the jagged rocks below, her hands unconsciously wrapped around Su Yan’s waist.

Her warm fingers touched his body, and Su Yan couldn’t help but tremble slightly before saying, “It’ll take two days to reach Yi Xian Sect from here. I’ll tell you about the sect.”

“Mhm.”

Being so close to a man for the first time, Lin Qingyue felt extremely shy, letting out a sound so faint it was almost inaudible from her throat.

Su Yan took a deep breath and said, “Yi Xian Sect is a major sect in the immortal path, with a lot of influence in the cultivation world. There are many powerful cultivators in the sect, including our master.”

“Our master is the head of Tian Shui Peak, a great cultivator at the Spirit Transformation realm. She’s someone no one dares to provoke, no matter where she goes. Being chosen by her is your good fortune, Junior Sister.”

“When we get back to the sect and you pay respects to Master, we’ll be family. Then I’ll introduce you to my three senior sisters. They’re warm and easy to get along with…”

Along the way, Su Yan kept talking endlessly, but there was no response from behind him.

He turned his head and saw that Lin Qingyue had closed her eyes at some point. Her fair cheek rested against his shoulder, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and warm breaths came from between her lips and teeth.

“She fell asleep…”

Su Yan blinked, feeling a bit of admiration for this junior sister.

Standing on a thin sword and flying in the sky, yet still able to fall asleep—this wasn’t something just anyone could do.

“Really, what if she fell off?”

Su Yan carefully supported Lin Qingyue’s shoulders and pulled her into his arms.

At that moment, he suddenly noticed that, although his junior sister was still young, her figure was already quite impressive. This intimate position made him feel a heavy pressure.

“Don’t tempt me like this!”

Su Yan’s face turned red. If it weren’t for the cold wind blowing at this altitude, he might not have been able to hold himself together.

…

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly before her dark, jewel-like eyes slowly opened. Lin Qingyue’s mind felt foggy—she had no idea where she was.

She rubbed her forehead, trying to wake up, and realized she was lying on a soft bed. Nearby, red candles flickered.

“What happened to me?”

She tried to sit up, but her body felt weak, like she had no strength at all.

Panic set in. Just then—

Creak—

The door swung open, and Su Yan walked in, mumbling to himself.

“The water’s ready. Now, I just need to help Junior Sister get undressed... though it’s best if she does that herself.”

“Un... undressed?”

Lin Qingyue instantly tensed, shrinking into the corner of the bed. She quickly crossed her arms over her chest.

“S-Senior Brother, what are you planning to do?”

Su Yan froze at her sudden voice. Seeing her wide, alarmed eyes, he realized she had completely misunderstood the situation.

Just as he was about to explain, the system popped up with a new set of choices.

[Option 1: Show a lecherous expression and say to Junior Sister, “What am I going to do? Of course, I want to do you!” (Reward: Clear Heart Technique)]

[Option 2: Make a very regretful expression, letting Junior Sister misunderstand that you have ulterior motives. (Reward: One portion of low-tier spiritual material)]

[Option 3: Tell the truth. (Reward: Aptitude +1)]

The system was trying to push something naughty, but he was an upright gentleman—how could he do such a thing?

Su Yan rejected the system’s temptation and said with a righteous expression, “Don’t misunderstand, Junior Sister. This is an inn. You fell asleep from exhaustion during the day, and I saw how tired you were, so I prepared a bucket of hot water. You can take a bath to refresh yourself once you’re awake.”

“So that’s how it is…”

Lin Qingyue’s face turned red, and she lowered her head in shame.

Her senior brother was doing something nice for her, preparing a bucket of hot water, and she’d been too sensitive. How could someone like him, who seemed like an immortal, take advantage of her?

And…

“Even if he did take advantage, where’s the case of a man harassing a woman?”

When a man and a woman did something like that, usually, the man had more to lose.

No man would risk his reputation just for a brief moment of pleasure.

Some men were playful, but judging by her senior brother’s behavior…

Lin Qingyue blinked. He was so good-looking, with “upright” written all over him—there was no way he’d do that!

“Sorry, I misunderstood you, Senior Brother.”

Lin Qingyue said, feeling embarrassed.

Su Yan left the room.

Lin Qingyue looked at the wooden tub in front of her. Steam rose from the tub filled with hot water. She walked over to it and took off her clothes.

Her snow-white body was exposed to the cold air, making the girl shiver.

Lin Qingyue stepped into the water with one foot, and the sudden warmth wrapped around her body, causing her to let out a moan unconsciously.

Su Yan, guarding outside the door, heard the sound and felt his nose itch. He lifted his leg to leave the spot.

Suddenly, Lin Qingyue spoke from inside the room.

“Senior Brother, aren’t we going to the sect? Why are we stopping here?”

Su Yan coughed and said, “The journey to the sect is long. Even flying on a sword takes two days. I could travel overnight, but you’re a mortal, and I was worried your body couldn’t handle it, so we’re resting here for the night.”

Lin Qingyue was deeply touched and said, “Senior Brother, you’re so good to me.”

Though they’d just met, he treated her so well.

In Lin Qingyue’s mind, men were all spoiled and willful, relying on women’s indulgence, each one arrogant and overbearing.

How could they compare to this senior brother—gentle and considerate? Whoever married him would surely live a happy life.

Looking at her snow-white skin, Lin Qingyue said softly, “If you haven’t lied to me and I really get to be your junior sister, how happy that would be.”

The moonlight flowed like water.

It fell into the tub, and Lin Qingyue’s eyes flickered, lost in some thought.

…

The next day, because Lin Qingyue took the initiative to suggest they hurry back to the sect and not worry about her—

“Since you say that, I’ll speed up then!”

After saying this, Su Yan held her waist, and their flying speed suddenly increased.

“I… I can’t open my eyes!”

Lin Qingyue said, her face flushed, as she watched the scenery rush backward around her.

“Just turn your back to the wind.”

Su Yan smiled lightly, looking at the sea of clouds beneath his feet. Flying on a sword was so exhilarating, especially while holding his junior sister.

“Whew, I… I can’t take it anymore.”

Lin Qingyue had clearly overestimated herself. With a mortal’s weak constitution, she was struggling to breathe.

Su Yan said with some dissatisfaction, “You can’t handle this? I’ve only just started. Here, lean against me—I’m going to move now…”

“Ah, Senior Brother, don’t move! I can’t take it!”

Lin Qingyue’s tone was panicked.

Su Yan responded with a smile, “Don’t worry, I understand your physical condition now. I’ll keep the speed steady from here—you’ll feel comfortable…”

Su Yan liked flying, and he believed Lin Qingyue would definitely come to enjoy this feeling too.

Besides, as a cultivator, his junior sister would one day fly on her own. This was also for her benefit, helping her get used to it sooner.
