“Yaoyao, I remember, Zhengshan has become your official beast husband.”

That short sentence instantly filled Jin Yao with fear.

Jin Yang looked down at her for a while, then closed his eyes.

Jin Yao was raised and loved by the four brothers.

They had always known she was adopted. Because they knew she was adopted, everyone was very careful to consider her feelings and thoughts.

They loved and doted on her, and when they learned that her real sister had been found, they immediately tried to understand her feelings.

But now, Jin Yang vaguely sensed that something was wrong, that he had done something wrong.

"Yaoyao, tell your fourth brother the truth, did you ask Zhengshan to do it?"

Jin Yao's eyes darted away. "Fourth Brother, why don't you believe me?"

“I believe you. Tell me,” Jin Yang said.

Jin Yao shook her head vigorously, like a rattle-drum.

Jin Yang suddenly shouted angrily, "Yao Yao! If you didn't do it, tell me, why was you poisoned when Zheng Shan destroyed Si Yan's things?!"

Jin Yao immediately said, "No, it wasn't me. Zhengshan was also poisoned. I accidentally brought the poison from Zhengshan!"

Jin Yang suddenly laughed and said, "Do you think I'm an idiot?"

Jin Yao: "...Fourth Brother, you can't not believe me."

Jin Yang waved his hand, "If you didn't do it, then you should go and talk to Si Yan yourself and ask her for the antidote."

Upon hearing Jin Yang's words, Jin Yao suddenly became furious. "Fourth Brother, how could you do this? You want me to go to Si Yan to beg for medicine? Won't she crush me to death? I'm just an adopted daughter. Her status and bloodline are higher than mine. If that's the case, I really can't live. I might as well leave the Golden Dragon Clan!"

As she spoke, Jin Yao burst into tears.

As Jin Yang watched Jin Yao cry, he felt a surge of impatience for the first time in his life.

“You know perfectly well that I don’t want you to leave the Golden Dragon Clan. I’ve doted on you for so many years. I don’t care at all whether you and I are related by blood. In my eyes, you are my sister. Even when you and Si Yan have a conflict, I’m always the first to side with you.”

Jin Yao was still crying there.

Having stopped crying, Jin Yang, barely containing his impatience, asked, "What do you want?"

Jin Yao: "Brother..."

Jin Yao cried and grabbed him, "Brother, you are Si Yan's fourth brother. You share the same blood. Si Yan won't abandon you. Fourth brother, just say you did it. Si Yan will definitely give you the antidote. If you say I did it... she never liked me anyway, so she definitely won't save me."

Jin Yang's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he looked at Jin Yao in disbelief. "What did you say?"

"Fourth Brother, please help me, please help me this once!! My stomach hurts so much, it's going to burst."

Jin Yang said, "Why should I take the blame for something I didn't do?"

Jin Yang harbored some unspoken thoughts.

He grew up with Jin Yao, and this was the first time he had met Si Yan, so he was definitely closer to Jin Yao than to Si Yan.

He knew he was biased.

However, after meeting her several times and interacting with her a few more times, he did find himself intentionally or unintentionally trying to follow his younger sister, Si Yan.

Gradually, he also sensed that Si Yan did not like him and was unwilling to have contact with him.

After all, she was his own younger sister, and Jin Yang really wanted to get along well with Si Yan.

If he's made to take such a huge blame at this time, wouldn't his relationship with Si Yan be even worse?

Thinking of this, Jin Yang's face turned pale.

Jin Yao hugged him, crying, "Brother, Fourth Brother, please! Si Yan won't help me, I'll die. But you're different, Si Yan will definitely not let anything happen to you!!"

Jin Yang said with a pale face, "I don't have any Chinese medicine, and I don't want to eat so much. My stomach isn't that big either."

Jin Yao cried even harder. "Fourth Brother, please eat a little more for my sake, so you can show a little belly tomorrow. Please, please!"

Jin Yang was already furious, but seeing Jin Yao crying so hard, he softened.

"Okay," he said, holding his breath.

Jin Yao was overjoyed to hear this, and she immediately had a lot of meat brought over to eat.

Jin Yang didn't know what he was thinking either.

Should we help Jin Yao? No.

He felt like he was trying to make himself look pained in order to attract Si Yan's attention.

He had a slight hope that Si Yan would notice him.

...

On the sixth day of the Great Sage Competition, Si Yan arrived early.

Tyson and Golden Boy indeed stayed up all night making iron beads.

Looking at the two energetic men, Si Yan asked with concern, "You've been busy all night, do you want to get some sleep?"

Jin Tong leaned closer, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You underestimate us. We're only busy for a short while; most of the time we're sleeping. Tyson and I take turns sleeping, so we're in great shape."

Tyson, like a strongman, carried a huge pile of iron ore across the road without flinching.

Seeing this, Si Yan nodded, "Okay."

Tomorrow is the last day, and there's still so much to do today.

Tyson asked with a smile, "Si Yan, what should we do first today?"

Si Yan said, "Sweet potato noodles."

When Si Yan came over in the morning, she found a smooth, flat stone that had been washed by the river many times.

She handed the stone slab to Tyson, who carefully shaved it little by little until he had carved out a flat, concave tray.

Actually, an iron pan would be more suitable as a container for sweet potato noodles, but Tyson and Golden Boy melted all that iron overnight, and Si Yan didn't want to use it here.

She set the stone slab aside, found a stone container, heated the clean spring water slightly, and then dissolved the starch in a suitable amount of warm water.

Then, she poured the sweet potato starch liquid onto the stone tray.

Then place the tray on a stone pot filled with boiling water to steam.

The weather is a bit better today than yesterday. There's a little sunshine.

After the sweet potato starch liquid is cooked, it becomes rice noodle sheets, which she hangs on a piece of wood to dry slightly.

"Holy crap, what happened to Sage Si Yan?"

"Why can red ground fruit turn into powder, and why can powder turn into such a large sheet?"

"This thing looks tender and a little transparent."

"What is this thing? Is it really edible?"

"I have never heard of or seen anything like what the wise man Si Yan has said."

"I have to say, I'm actually a little excited. This is truly a food I've never seen or even heard of before!"

"Beast God above, please grant us food."

After Si Yan did it once, Tyson and Golden Boy understood it. They began to replicate Si Yan's process, making one large pink skin after another.

After the rice noodles had dried slightly, they were taken off the fire. Si Yan used snake scales to cut the semi-dry rice noodles into strips, and then placed them next to the fire to bake slowly.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Tyson wagged his tail excitedly and laughed, "Siyan, aren't we ready?"

Si Yan turned her head and smiled at Tyson, saying, "After the rice noodles are dried, they will become dried rice noodles. As long as the dried rice noodles don't get wet, they can be stored for 1-3 Beast Eras without any problems."
