Girls in a Matriarchal World Are Just Too Scary-Chapter 28 - Little Junior Sister Wants to Get Stronger

When Qin Yimeng made her offer, Su Yan didn’t waste time. He picked up his junior sister, threw her over his shoulder, and ran back to Tian Shui Peak.

“Stupid disciple, they’re already gone,” Fairy Qingxuan sighed, annoyed.

She had tied the guy up and handed him over, but her disciple just let him escape.

“Master, you wouldn’t understand,” Qin Yimeng said, shaking her head.

Her master had been single forever—how could she know what it felt like to fall in love?

“Oh sure, you’re the love expert,” Qingxuan scoffed.

If you like him, just take him. Feelings can come later. Why make things so complicated?

“If you let him go now, you might never get another chance.”

Qin Yimeng didn’t say anything. She knew many people were interested in Su Yan—she wasn’t the only one. But she had no regrets.

“I won’t give up,” she thought, clenching her fists.

Her confession failed, but that was expected. It wasn’t the right time for him to say yes.

That’s why she would try harder, improve herself, and one day, she would confess again.

…

After leaving Tian Zhu Peak, Su Yan jogged back to his room. Seeing familiar turf, he let out a huge breath.

“That scared the crap out of me.”

He patted his chest. What he’d thought would be a quiet night turned into chaos—he’d nearly lost his virtue. Too close.

Lin Qingyue, set aside, regained some strength as the spell’s effects faded.

Looking up, she said, “Good thing that the jerk had a conscience—Senior Brother, you’re okay. But you were there for so long. Did she take advantage of you?”

Su Yan escaped the pit, untainted by that lusty woman—she should be excited.

But thinking of them alone that long soured her mood. It gnawed at her.

Su Yan opened his mouth, but new options popped up.

[Option 1: Tell the truth: “We did a bunch of shameful stuff—Junior Sister, you’ve got to keep it secret.” (Reward: High-Grade Artifact, Flowing Cloud Sword)]

[Option 2: Lie to Junior Sister: “You’re overthinking it—Senior Sister Qin’s a gentleman. It’s all her master’s fault; nothing happened.” (Reward: Spiritual Power +2)]

Su Yan took a quick look and picked two options.

Then he turned to Lin Qingyue. “Junior Sister, you’re thinking too much. Nothing happened.”

She let out a deep breath.

Su Yan raised an eyebrow. “You seem happy?”

“Yes!” Lin Qingyue smiled. “Knowing that Senior Brother is safe makes me so relieved. Thank goodness!”

Seeing how much she cared, Su Yan couldn’t help but pat her head.

She closed her eyes, enjoying it.

“Tonight was crazy,” he said. “You must be tired. Get some rest. But don’t tell anyone.”

“Why not?” she asked, confused.

After everything that happened, they should report that woman and make her pay.

He patted her head again. “You think I don’t want to? But Master Qingxuan is too powerful. Even if we tell, nothing will happen to her. Do you understand now?”

Lin Qingyue stayed quiet. If they spoke up, Qingxuan would escape punishment, but Su Yan’s reputation would be ruined instead.

Why? Just because she was a master? Did power let people do whatever they wanted?

It hurt, but she nodded. She had no way to change it.

“If I was strong, I wouldn’t have to accept this.”

Tears filled her eyes. Su Yan was the real victim.

Almost taken advantage of—any man would be scared.

But because of Qingxuan’s power, he had to pretend nothing happened. It was unfair.

“No—I have to protect him!”

Lin Qingyue clenched her fists. She needed to get stronger.

…

After seeing her off, Su Yan finally had time for himself. He pulled up the system panel.

[Name: Su Yan]

[Gender: Male]

[Age: 18]

[Physique: Pure Yang Body +1]

[Cultivation: Mid Foundation Establishment]

[Skills: Basic Cooking]

[Techniques: Rain Summoning, Moistening Art +1, Dragon King Water Spray +1]

Most skills had leveled up, but they still sucked. He shook his head and flipped to stats.

[Aptitude: 80]

[Comprehension: 32]

[Spiritual Power: 53]

Starting from scratch—just like a level-up game. But Su Yan wasn’t happy.

“Still too weak.”

Most cultivators had stats around 50. His talent and spiritual power were decent, but his understanding? Terrible.

“How can an idiot like me get stronger?”

Cultivation needed good comprehension. In novels, heroes had sudden insights—that was important.

Su Yan felt stuck. How could he get stronger fast?

He always wanted power but never worked hard. Tonight was a wake-up call.

No one could protect him all the time. If something bad happened again, could he escape?

“I need to at least defend myself.”

He checked his fighting ability.

Mid Foundation Establishment level—not bad, but his skills were few. He’d struggle against others his level, and geniuses in the lower stage might even beat him.

“What should I do now?”

He frowned, frustrated.

Then he remembered—he hadn’t claimed his reward!

“The Flying Cloud Needle?”

Curious, he looked at the treasure. A real spiritual weapon?

He linked with it using his divine sense and tested its power. He was impressed.

“Way better than that weak Dragon King Water Spray.”

With this, he finally felt strong—regular Foundation Establishment fighters wouldn’t stand a chance.

“It’s powerful, but it drains my divine sense too fast. I need more skills.”

He decided to visit the Technique Pavilion tomorrow. No more wasting time.

“It’s late. I better sleep before morning comes.”

Yawning, he quickly washed up and went to bed.

…

The next day, Su Yan pretended nothing happened. He greeted his senior sister, then went to the Technique Pavilion to learn new skills.

“I need to get serious.”

Last night changed him—now he really wanted to become stronger.
