My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 236 Uneasy
Xin Nian's lips twitched. Why are we talking about sworn brotherhood again?

Oh right, who else did she swear brotherhood with back then, Xiaochi or someone else?

Xin Nian looked at Xiao Jinzhi with bright eyes, "So, the two of us? We didn't become sworn brothers?"

They've already formed a sworn brotherhood of six, so what's wrong with bringing in His Highness the Crown Prince?
"How about we become sworn brothers now and I'll add you to the group?" the little girl asked innocently.

Xiao Jinzhi chuckled, cupped her small face in his hands, and ruffled it roughly. "Who would become sworn brothers with you? Impossible in this life, and impossible in the next life, and the life after that~"

When the Crown Prince spoke, his voice rose slightly, tinged with a hint of a smile. His clear, phoenix eyes, curved with a smile, gazed at her, as if trying to etch her into the depths of his soul.

Xin Nian quickly twisted her neck and escaped from his clutches.

"Niannian, wait for me to come out." The Crown Prince exerted a little force, gripped her hand tightly for a moment, then released it and turned to leave.

Xin Nian took two steps after him, put her hands on her hips, and glared at his back.

What's wrong with this guy? He's in seclusion to learn a skill, but it feels like he's going to his death. She doesn't like his somber tone.

It would be better to act like before, pitifully acting cute and affectionate towards her.

Xin Nian frowned, touched the vine in her hand, and planned to let the little vine split off a thin branch to stay close to Xiao Jinzi.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems if one practices supernatural abilities.

Unless... Little Gold's time-manipulation ability is faulty.

The reason this guy wouldn't tell her the truth must be because it was very dangerous for her.

"Sister, sister!" Chang Mianmian rushed up to her happily, interrupting her thoughts.

"Ok?"

"Dr. Luo has cured those mules. Why don't we take them back to the farm and raise them for a while?"

“Okay.” Xin Nian followed her and put the mules into the farm space.

"Mianmian, prepare some food and supplies for Fenyang and the others, so they can get some rest."

Chang Mianmian nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Okay, sister."

Xin Nian teleported to the wooden building next door and sensed Xiao Jinzhi's aura through the spatial barrier.

It's very stable; it seems they've entered an immersive learning mode.

So what's the problem?

The little girl scratched her head and cheeks outside the door, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

She slipped into the farm, first checking on the pigs, sheep, cattle, horses, and mules she had neatly categorized and penned, then glancing at the overpopulated rabbits.

After taking out several litters, I killed them with my mind, and as usual, I plucked off the rabbit fur and put it into a sack. Then I used my spatial blade to cut the rabbit meat.

After finishing all that, Xin Nian ran to the workroom to check on Chi Jue.

Seeing him busy with his head down, I simply dragged a stool over and sat down next to him.

After she sighed eighteen times, Chi Jue could no longer bear it and stopped, turning to glare at her, "You're sitting next to me and getting in my way. When will I ever finish making this armor for you?"

Xin Nian knew that this person had a penchant for nitpicking. If something wasn't done well, he would want to delve into it and continue to study it, and he wouldn't have time to pay attention to her at all.

But she was depressed, melancholy, and distressed.

It's all Xiao Jin's fault; she pulled this stunt before going into seclusion.

"Little Pond, will His Highness die?"

"What??" Xiaochi thought she was hallucinating.

He was used to Xin Nian occasionally throwing out a few unfamiliar words, and he was already accustomed to it and knew their meanings.

That's outrageous! How could something happen to His Highness the Crown Prince, who is so capable?
Xin Nian then recounted the whole story to Xiao Chi and asked, "What do you think he meant?"

When Xiaochi heard her say that His Highness the Crown Prince held her hand, her eyelids kept twitching. Then, recalling that last, ambiguous remark, Xiaochi couldn't help but take a deep breath. "Is it possible you're overthinking it?"

Damn it, His Highness the Crown Prince acted so quickly.

They've only known each other for a few days, and they can't help but reveal their true colors.

Is there such a rush? The two of them aren't even that familiar with each other; shouldn't they get to know each other better?
The key point is that, judging from the girl's expression right now, she seems to care quite a bit about His Highness.

"Have you heard of his time-manipulation abilities? What are their drawbacks?"

Chi Jue remained expressionless. "Someone as intelligent as him, even if his special abilities have flaws, do you think he would tell others?"

“That’s true.” Xin Nian nodded, glancing at him wistfully. “Aren’t you two inseparable, like brothers who would die for each other? You don’t even know him that well.”

"Why don't you get to know me first?"

Xin Nian, who was feeling melancholy, was startled by Chi Jue's sudden close approach and quickly pushed his head away.

"What else do we need to know? Aren't we sworn brothers?"

"Who said we're sworn brothers!" Chi Jue retorted irritably. "You were drunk and confused, and you unilaterally dragged us into becoming sworn brothers."

Therefore, this so-called sworn brotherhood is completely invalid.

Xin Nian dragged her stool back and sat down. "Who's the eldest brother in the sworn brotherhood?"

Seeing Chi Juemu staring at her expressionlessly, Xin Nian had a sudden inspiration, "I'm the eldest brother?"

"Dream on." Chi Jue reached out and grabbed her head, kicking her out of the workshop.

It's so annoying to look at!
He has a bad memory and a dull mind. He keeps making sworn brotherhoods every day. What a load of rubbish!
Xin Nian was baffled and couldn't understand why this man had suddenly gotten so angry.

She left the space, lingered in front of Xiao Jinzhi's house for a while, and then left dejectedly.

The next few days passed relatively peacefully, but Xiao Jinzhi did not come out.

According to Xiao Teng's feedback, Xiao Jinzhi seems to be doing well.

That's true, how could there be any danger during normal practice?
Perhaps, as Koike said, she was overthinking things.

On the eighth day of camping, the sun was blazing.

The brothers from Longhu Village, who were on duty at the edge of the forest, rushed over to report, "Commander, a lot of people have come from outside."

Mr. and Mrs. Xin were watching their daughters sew rabbit felt, rabbit fur pads, and rabbit fur hats, and were momentarily stunned.

"Who did you say is coming?"

"Fifty or sixty people! I don't recognize them. Judging from their appearance, they seem to have fled from the capital."

"Let's go take a look." Xin Wenyuan and his wife exchanged a glance and strode toward the edge of the woods.

"Commander, I'll go with you to take a look." General Chi quickly got up, and Xie Hui and Prefect Lu followed.

Xin Wenyuan and his wife walked to the edge of the woods and saw that, sure enough, dozens of people were blocking the entrance. Many of them were rushing into the woods like madmen, howling incessantly.

Unfortunately, although the forest seemed to be right in front of them, it was actually separated by a spatial barrier.

There is also a firebreak trench filled with flammable materials. A fire-type ability user can easily create a wall of fire in front of the trees with a flick of their finger.

Seven or eight servants frantically pounded on the space wall, their faces showing pain and despair.

What is the scariest thing?
On the verge of death, he saw an oasis before him, but he couldn't get in!
“Someone’s coming! Look! Let us in quickly!” A young man excitedly pointed to several people who had appeared at the edge of the woods.

Suddenly, a noblewoman forcefully pulled it away, rubbed her eyes, and a big surprise flashed across her face.

"Wen Yuan? Is that you, Wen Yuan? It's me, Su Su! Wen Yuan."

Xin Wenyuan got goosebumps all over from the affected voice.
