Beware of Chicken 4
A laugh-out-loud, slice-of-life martial-arts fantasy about . . . farming????
Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body.
Out in the middle of nowhere, I’ve managed to escape a life of cultivation and politics. Until now, that is. I guess it was inevitable they caught up with me eventually. I haven’t exactly been subtle. You know, what with the talking animals performing heroics all over the Azure Hills and Xiulan constantly calling me a Hidden Master.
A part of me wants to run away again. The memory of my death still haunts my dreams. But this is my home now. And I’ll be damned if I give it up without a fight.
I mean, all I have to do is learn how to navigate xianxia politics and train for battle while simultaneously running my farm and uncovering an ancient cataclysm that apparently destroyed the Azure Hills back in the day.
Meanwhile, I’m about to be a father . . . Man, I’m kinda screwed, aren’t I? At least I can call in the cavalry―ahem, poultry―to help.

Cozy Pairings
Brown Sugar Cinnamon is a warm, bakery-inspired fragrance that wraps you in the comforting sweetness of brown sugar and melted butter, gently spiced with cinnamon. Rich and inviting, this scent evokes the feeling of something freshly baked lingering in the air, soft and golden with just a touch of indulgence. Smooth and well balanced, it brings a sense of warmth and familiarity to any space, creating a cozy atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and comforting.
Why we chose this: Jin Rou died and was reborn into a fantasy world with the strength of ten men, and immediately decided to use it for farming. Now he has a Spirit Beast rooster, a wife, a talking pig, a deeply philosophical ox, and the most contented life in the Azure Hills. Brown Sugar Cinnamon is the candle for every book in this series, warm and golden and alive with the smell of a harvest brought in with genuine satisfaction, the scent of a life made small on purpose and enormously rich as a result. Light this candle and let the sweetness fill the room like a farmhouse kitchen at the end of a long growing season, where the rice is in and the animals are fed and everything is exactly as it should be.
