I am Song Yu Qi, I am a girl

Seeing Xia Zilin and Tan Yanyan sleeping soundly on the table, Song Yang sighed and thought that he could definitely not let them like that.

He walked first to Tan Yanyan and took her gently in his arms. The girl was light and thanks to his cultivator's strength, he had no difficulty carrying her.

The bedrooms of the three girls were adjacent to each other. Song Yang's room was in the middle while Xia Zilin's room was on the left and Tan Yanyan's room was on the right.

Song Yang entered the room on the right and walked towards the bed. It was not the first time he entered Tan Yanyan's bedroom so he already knew what it looked like. The room was decorated simply and humbly with some calligraphy on the walls and a painted portrait of Tan Yanyan's family hanging on the wall above her bed.

Her family was quite complicated since her mother had died when she was young. At that time, Tan Yanyan could only rely on her older brother to take care of her since her father was always busy managing the family affairs...

Song Yang placed Tan Yanyan on the bed very carefully and covered her with a blanket before walking out of the bedroom.

Next, he took care of Xia Zilin the same way by bringing her into her room. Her bedroom was also simply decorated with only a beautiful landscape painting at the back. However, what drew the most attention in her room were the many alchemy books placed on the small wooden table next to her bed.

Xia Zilin actually had a big brother but he, unfortunately, had no talent for cultivation. It was also the first time in the history of her family that someone had joined a tier-1 sect so she had a lot of pressure on her shoulders. Her goal was to become a famous Alchemist so that she could bring honor to her family.

After he left Xia Zilin's bedroom, Song Yang entered his own room and cultivated for the rest of the day until late at night.

...

The next morning, Song Yang was woken up earlier than usual by loud noises coming from outside his room.

Wondering what was happening, he sat up on his bed but was surprised to see the door to his bedroom abruptly open.

"Sister Yu Qi, I'm truly sorry!"

"Sister Yu Qi, I'm so ashamed, please forgive me!"

It was Tan Yanyan and Xia Zilin. They both looked anxious and panicked and started apologizing quickly and simultaneously creating an incomprehensible hubbub.

Hearing them gave Song Yang a headache.

"Stop! Take a deep breath and calm down. Sister Zilin, you speak first." He said.

"S-Sister Yu Qi, please forgive me for what I said yesterday. I really love you... Ah no... I mean, n-not like that... I mean, you are very important to me so I don't want to make things awkward between us. So, please, forget what I said yesterday." Said Xia Zilin, anxious.

Song Yang was really tempted to tease her but seeing her panicked state he decided to not make things difficult for her.

"Sister Zilin, you are also important to me. I know that you were drunk yesterday so don't worry, what you said doesn't bother me." He said, smiling.

"Really? Thank you!" She said, relieved.

Song Yang nodded and looked at Tan Yanyan, indicating that it was her turn to speak.

"Sister Yu Qi, I apologize for my behavior yesterday. P-please, don't mind what I said, I was drunk." Said Tan Yanyan, blushing.

Song Yang was about to answer but was interrupted by Xia Zilin.

"What did Sister Yanyan say yesterday?" She asked, curious. She was already sleeping on the table when Tan Yanyan made her 'confession'.

"She said that she would marry me if I were a man." Answered Song Yang, smiling.

"Sister Yu Qi!" Exclaimed Tan Yanyan, embarrassed.

"Hahaha, this is really funny! But it's true that Sister Yu Qi sometimes acts like a man. Do you remember a few months ago when she tried to pee standing up like a man and had to call for our help because she didn't know how to pee sitting down?" Mocked Xia Zilin, laughing.

"Sister Zilin, shut up! This is too embarrassing, don't remind me of that!" Exclaimed Song Yang, blushing. It was not his fault! It was his first time peeing in the body of a girl and he had no idea how it worked...

"Of course, I remember!" Said Tan Yanyan, smiling.

The two girls started to laugh loudly and Song Yang was so embarrassed that he hid his face behind his hands and wanted to dig a hole to hide in it.

Fortunately, they stopped laughing after a minute so Song Yang took this opportunity to change the subject.

"Anyway, let's forget about yesterday and instead focus on our cultivation. You must quickly reach the third level of the Eight Meridians Opening realm so we can do sect missions together!" He said.

"Sister Yu Qi is right!" Said Tan Yanyan, nodding.

"Alright, then see you soon for breakfast." Said Xia Zilin, waving her hand.

They both agreed and left Song Yang's bedroom.

...

A month had passed since that event and nothing notable had happened during that time. Song Yang had simply settled down into a routine of cultivating from morning till night.

To break this routine, he had, from time to time, sent a message to Chen Meng Meng to do sect missions with her. Thanks to that, the two of them had become good friends.

Even with his S-grade talent, this month of cultivating had not been enough for him to reach the fourth level of the Eight Meridians Opening realm. For all cultivators, it took longer and longer to cultivate after the third level, and Song Yang was not an exception. Although he felt he was not far from reaching the fourth level.

Song Yang just woke up and was currently sitting on his bed, lost in his thoughts.

There was one thing that bothered him recently. It was the fact that he was more and more confused about his gender. Was he a man or a woman? Every day when he woke up, he asked himself this question. He was so confused about it that it scared him a lot.

He was so used to living as a girl that the voice in his head when he was thinking was no longer his male voice but his female voice! Moreover, his period didn't even bother him anymore and, on the contrary, the last time he was anxious because it was a few days late...

'It's been four months already. Maybe I should just accept the fact that I'm a girl now... At least, until I can find a way to become a man again...' He thought.

Song Yang sighed. He had lived as a man for twenty-four years so admitting that he was a girl was very hard for him. But this confusion was really bothersome and disturbing so he preferred to make efforts to accept his new gender. Moreover, he had always read in xianxia web novels that cultivating with an unstable Dao Heart was dangerous so he needed to make peace with himself and accept his situation.

"Song Yu Qi... Girl... I am Song Yu Qi. I am a girl." He believed that saying this out loud in his soft, feminine voice would help him accept his identity.

"I am Song Yu Qi."

"I am a girl."

"I am Song Yu Qi! I am a girl!" He exclaimed. Then he quickly put his hands over his mouth because he said that too loudly.

'Song Yang will always be a part of me but it's time to move on. That's right, I am Song Yu Qi, I am a girl!' She thought.

Song Yu Qi shed a few tears and sighed in relief, accepting her new gender and identity had lifted the weight on her shoulders. She felt at ease and relaxed for the first time since she had come to this world.

Wiping her tears and smiling, she left her bedroom and went to the dining room to prepare breakfast.
