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

Chapter 29 This is sorcery!

"Did you bring sixteen guards? Hmm?" The disheveled girl's voice rose slightly at the end, her eyes full of laughter.

Xiao Jiuni had never been so terrified. She wanted to find her father. She was determined to find her father, and he would surely protect her. She would make him kill this hateful woman in front of her.

"Are you stupid? You can't even count." Xin Nian became impatient and tightened her grip on Xiao Jiu Ni's fingers. Xiao Jiu Ni could almost hear the cracking sound of the bones in her neck breaking.

She could only make two "ah ah" sounds, opening her mouth in pain, nodding and shaking her head.

"Ten, ten, ten, seventeen..." Xiao Jiuni struggled to utter these words, and then noticed that the hand holding her neck loosened.

A flash of hatred and malice crossed her eyes as she said in a hoarse voice, "You bitch, you're dead. Old Ao..."

A smile flashed across Xin Nian's eyes, and she slapped the person hard against the edge of the bathtub.

Xiao Jiuni had a bloody mark on her forehead and fainted on the spot.

At the same time, a sword aura arrived instantly.

Xin Nian suddenly dodged, the sword blade grazing her disheveled hair, a few strands of hair slowly falling down.

Xin Nian blinked, and in another flash, a deep crack appeared where she had been standing, carved by sword energy.

The mahogany furniture behind it also split in two.

Looking up, she met the dark-faced giant standing at the door. Xin Nian smiled and raised an eyebrow. "The princess has a master hidden by her side."

"He truly enjoys the favor of the royal family."

The burly, dark-faced man didn't say anything; he simply stood in the doorway, blocking Xin Nian's way out.

He wielded his iron sword with remarkable skill, his sword energy crisscrossing, sending wood chips flying wherever it passed, and cleaving everything in its path into three or four pieces.

The room wasn't very big, and I thought dealing with a young girl would be a piece of cake.

Unexpectedly, all his sword strikes missed their mark, and he was shocked to realize that the little girl in prison clothes was moving so fast that she was almost a blur.

This was also the first time Xin Nian had experienced the internal energy cultivation of ancient people, which was far more powerful than her close-combat techniques.

They can conjure up sword energy out of thin air, capable of severing hair with a single blow.

The sword wind swept across her left cheek. She reached out and touched it, feeling a slight pain, and a trickle of blood slid down her cheek.

"You hurt me?" Xin Nian was greatly surprised, her eyes filled with a few unreadable emotions.

Little did she know, the burly man with the dark face was even more shocked.

Witnessing the bloodstain on the little girl's cheek gradually disappear, the burly man knew that his princess had met a tough opponent tonight!
“Originally, I just wanted you to die peacefully like those bad guys. But now…” The little girl tilted her head, a strange smile appearing on her face, “I’ve changed my mind.”

The burly man with the dark face was taken aback, and in his confusion, he instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Just as he raised his sword to swing it, he felt the air around him twist inexplicably, and his hand suddenly bent backward uncontrollably to a degree that an ordinary person could hardly bear.

It made a "click" sound.

The iron sword then fell to the ground with a clang.

Immediately afterwards, I felt a sharp pain in my hands and feet, as if something like needles was piercing my skin.

The spatial distortion lasted only a moment, and after it instantly returned to normal, the dark-faced giant hurriedly kicked out and gripped the iron sword with his left hand.

Before he could even slash forward, the big man felt his hands slip out of his control again.

The hand holding the sword was raised, while the other hand hung limply. Both hands and feet seemed to be pulled and bound by something unseen, completely out of control.

He stared wide-eyed, mouth agape, at himself, his limbs moving up and down in a strange and unsettling way.

His feet seemed to be hooked, moving in unison, he walked straight ahead towards the little girl. Sorcery! This must be sorcery!

A flicker of fear crossed the burly man's heart, but he was now completely out of control and could only let himself be manipulated.

As you get closer, you can clearly see that the little girl is holding a few threads between her fingers, controlling him like a puppet on strings.

"Have you ever heard of a puppet on strings?" She tilted her head slightly, raised her slender fingers, and looked at me with a deep smile.

A chill ran straight into people's hearts.

Whether it was his imagination or not, the big man felt that his shoulders and neck were not under his control, and any movement made a mechanical creaking sound.

"From now on, you'll follow me." Xin Nian leaned closer to the man, whispering gently, almost soothingly, "Once the threads are completely integrated into your body, it won't hurt anymore. Just bear with it a little longer, okay, okay?"

The burly, dark-faced man was in pain and terrified. He stared wide-eyed at the woman in front of him as if she were some kind of monster.

He was shocked to find that he could no longer make a sound, and gradually, his consciousness began to blur.

"See, does it stop hurting now?" Xin Nian stretched out two fingers, pinched the big man's right arm that was hanging down to his side, and suddenly lifted and caught it, the bone was embedded in it with a "crack".

"Master will treat you well from now on, don't worry."

The burly, dark-faced man stood silently beside her, his dull eyes filled with deathly stillness.

"You can leave now. From now on, stay within fifteen feet of me."

The burly, dark-faced man turned and vanished silently.

Xin Nian slowly walked to the bathtub, suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiao Jiu Ni's wet hair, laughing, "Stop pretending, Miss, I know you've been awake for a while."

Xiao Jiuni trembled violently, struggling to open her eyes, her nose twitching and her lips trembling, "No, please don't hurt me. I, I'll agree to anything you ask, I, I'll ask my father... ah."

Xin Nian used a small fruit knife from the fruit plate to cut off a piece of Xiao Jiu Ni's nose.

Blood spurted out.

Xiao Jiuni was shocked and terrified, her whole body trembling uncontrollably, her eyes filled with resentment and venom. "I, my father will not let you go. You, if you kill me, you will die too, you are doomed."

"Let me tell you a story." Xin Nian sat casually on the small table next to the bathtub, crossed her legs, and looked at the other person with a smile.

“There used to be someone as self-righteous as you who always thought that those working people struggling at the bottom of society were just lowly ants. He used these ants to feed a monster, letting the monster grow slowly until it became uncontrollable.”

"After I found him, I hung him among the monsters and let the monsters I kept gnaw on him every day."

Xin Nian couldn't help but chuckle as she said this, "Do you know why he won't die?"

She tilted her head, revealing a smug little expression, "I treated him. I treated him every day, and then let him get eaten. Haha, in the end, he was eaten until half of his body was gone, and he was still living a miserable life."

Xiao Jiuni stared wide-eyed in terror at the monstrous girl in front of her.

She's more like a monster than a monster.

"Later, he wept bitterly and begged for mercy every day, saying, 'Your Majesty, please let me die.'"

Xin Nian couldn't help but burst into laughter again, lowering her head slightly to meet the trembling Xiao Jiu Ni.

"Miss, I originally wanted to kill you."

"But I've changed my mind now."

"I guess someone as high and mighty as you has never experienced the end of the world."
