Join the ServerThe sky had brightened, and the rising bell echoed through the dormitory. Mu Wanqing had gotten up early, washed up, and was surprised to find her best friend, who was usually an early riser, still lying in bed.
“Yueyue… time to get up for class…” she called softly, but as she drew closer, she saw Su Liyue’s face was deathly pale. She was curled up on the bed, clutching her stomach in pain, her hair plastered to her forehead with cold sweat.
“Yueyue! What’s wrong? Are you sick?! I’ll go fetch the healing instructor right now!” Mu Wanqing said, panicking.
Since last night, the cramping had tormented her intermittently, keeping her awake, and it had also affected Ye Xingchen, who tossed and turned on his side.
“No… don’t call the instructor…” Su Liyue shook her head weakly, her voice as faint as a mosquito’s buzz. She hadn’t been able to sleep much since the previous night, and Ye Xingchen had suffered just as much, kept awake by the pain in her female body. As she tried to sit up, she felt another sharp cramp in her abdomen, followed by a sudden warmth that gushed out uncontrollably.
“Ah!” She screamed in fright. She was over a thousand years old, and yet this happened to her—oh heavens, this was utterly mortifying!
Mu Wanqing was startled by the scream. “Yueyue! What’s going on? I’ll go get—”
“Help… help me ask for leave…” Su Liyue gripped the bedsheet tightly, her cheeks burning red.
“Xingchen… Xingchen will take me to the infirmary…”
Trembling, she reached down, her fingertips touching something wet and sticky. When she pulled her hand back, she saw a shocking patch of bright red.
This really scared Su Liyue. Even if she had eaten something bad, it wouldn’t be this severe, right?
“Yueyue,” Mu Wanqing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, a knowing tone in her voice. “It’s just your period…”
Period?! Right, this body had never had a period before! Oh my god! Her ‘aunt flo’ had arrived!
Su Liyue’s heart was shattered. Having her period meant she was truly a woman—able to get pregnant and bear children! And she was already sixteen! She had thought she would never experience the pain that came with being female, but she couldn’t escape it after all.
And this pain was unbearable! She felt an indescribable twisting agony in her lower abdomen. It was just terrible.
“Ahh…” Su Liyue wore a shy, girlish expression, not feigned but instinctual.
Mu Wanqing skillfully pulled a pack of soft cotton pads embroidered with elven patterns from her storage cabinet and gently placed them into Su Liyue’s hand. “Yueyue, you look so clueless. Use mine for now. Your first period came suddenly, so you probably weren’t prepared, right?”
Then she winked. “Let Xingchen go to the magical general store later. They just got in self-heating ones~”
Su Liyue clutched the pack of lavender-scented pads, her face reddening to the point of dripping blood. Use her best friend’s? And Ye Xingchen had to go to the store to buy sanitary pads for her female body? Wasn’t this the ultimate public humiliation?
At that moment, Su Liyue wanted nothing more than to bury her head in the covers. Even when she had faced cultivation bottlenecks in the immortal world, she had never been this embarrassed—at least then she didn’t feel like ascending to the heavens on the spot.
Suddenly, she felt some empathy for the Yaochi Saintess. Though she wasn’t sure if that immortal had to endure such trials, being a woman was just too… too difficult.
“The sheets are stained. We need to change them quickly.”
Mu Wanqing efficiently rolled up the sheets and turned to see Su Liyue still sitting blankly on the bed. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Yueyue, go take a hot shower. I’ve already put soothing essential oils in the tub. Stay in the dorm today—I’ll ask for leave for you. If you don’t have spare sheets, you can sleep in my bed…”
“S-sleep in your bed?!” Su Liyue clutched the alien-world pads, her face reddening like a ripe apple. She stammered, “N-no need… I’ll have Xingchen bring a new set…”
“Wow~ Having a boyfriend is so convenient! Even changing sheets is handled for you. I’m so jealous~”
“Qingqing!!” Su Liyue grabbed a pillow in mock anger, but another cramp made her curl up again.
Though they were two bodies, Ye Xingchen had to share the pain too. This was double the torment!
“Alright, alright. Yueyue, go take your shower. I need to hurry and ask for leave for you.” Mu Wanqing started to leave.
“Wait, wait!” Su Liyue, her face still flushed, tugged at her friend’s sleeve. Her voice grew softer. “This… how do I use this…” She held up the alien-world pad, its intricate pattern dizzying her. As a man, he had never encountered this before.
Mu Wanqing froze for a moment, then realized. “Ah, right! It’s your first time, Yueyue~”
She immediately picked up a pad to demonstrate. “First, peel off the magical adhesive on the back. Be sure to fold the wings like this… There! Finally, adjust the position~”
Su Liyue’s ears burned, but she had to grit her teeth and learn. Here she was, a top-tier transcendent cultivator, having to learn such private matters like a child. If the Yaochi Saintess found out, she would probably laugh at him for eternity.
“You’re a fast learner, Yueyue~” Mu Wanqing leaned close to her bright red ear. “Want me to teach you how to use the magic self-heating ones? I heard they ease cramps…”
“N-no need!” Su Liyue grabbed a towel and dashed into the bathroom, nearly tripping over her own feet. Amidst the sound of warm water, her ashamed muttering could be faintly heard: “Once my cultivation is back… I will… I will…”
Before she could finish, she felt another warm gush between her legs.
“Moo—!” She covered her face in shame, curling up under the showerhead.
What was wrong with this body? This was even harder to deal with than the heavenly tribulation lightning!
