“Seafood porridge?” Liao Ning asked, puzzled.

Had the seafood porridge she made for Olift once already shown such remarkable effects?

Olift nodded earnestly. “Yes. After that, I also consumed a few of the ancient delicacies you prepared. I’m not sure which one did the trick.”

Returning to the kitchen, Liao Ning carefully inspected the ingredients she had used for the seafood porridge that day. It primarily consisted of squid, prawns, and an orange clam since she didn’t have any scallops at the time.

She examined the orange clam closely and immediately contacted Jin Xiang.

Being a researcher, Jin Xiang pondered tor a moment upon hearing Liao Ning’s inquiry. “The scientific name of the orange clam is Golden Toad. Due to its low meat yield and unattractive appearance, it’s not produced in large quantities despite being easy to cultivate. However, its meat is indeed very delicious and has a certain antidotal effect.”

“Could it be that it can counteract the effects of the elven loyalty potion?” Liao Ning asked anxiously.

She empathized with the plight of the merfolk and was willing to do whatever she could to help their cause.

“It’s difficult to say.” Although Jin Xiang also wanted to offer assistance, confirming the efficacy of the Golden Toad without proper experimental data was challenging.

Feeling hopeful about the potential antidote, Liao Ning’s mood quickly soured. She replied with a despondent “Yes.”

Sensing her low spirits, Jin Xiang hastily added, “But I’ll arrange for the farm to conduct relevant experiments. If we obtain any results, I’ll inform you immediately.”

Jin Xiang’s words managed to lift Liao Ning’s spirits.

She Imew that certain matters couldn’t be rushed, and it was impossible for her to single-handedly challenge the Empire and secure freedom for the merfolk.

She promptly adjusted her emotions and proceeded to gather the ingredients needed for the seafood porridge.

Since Liao Ning believed that seafood porridge might serve as an antidote, she decided to teach others how to make it.

As she started her live-stream, hundreds of thousands of viewers quickly joined in.

“Hello, everyone! I’m back with another live-stream!” Liao Ning greeted them with a cheerful smile.

[Liao Ning is live! She’s truly the top pro-blogger!]

[What delicious dish do we have today? I’m already drooling!]

[+1! If I learn to cook a new dish every day, I won’t have to rely on medicine for long. It’s affordable and tasty!]

“Liao Ning, start already! I can’t wait!” urged another viewer.

Taking note of the comments, Liao Ning unveiled the ingredients she had prepared.

“It’s currently the peak season for seafood, so today I’ll be teaching you how to make a simple and delightful seafood porridge.”

She introduced the ingredients she had in hand. “Today’s porridge is incredibly easy to make. All you need is rice, your favorite seafood, sweet corn, pepper, and so on.’

“Most importantly, I want to recommend these little seafood gems in my hand: golden clams. They have a wonderful taste and are incredibly affordable!”

Upon seeing the golden clams, the comments section exploded once again.

[Golden clams? I think they cost five star coins per kilogram. Are they really edible?]

[I trust Liao Ning completely. Even if she says we can eat iron, I’ll believe her!]

[Don’t be overly confident, previous commenter. Iron skin might be edible, but teeth might struggle with it! Hahaha!]

[Five star coins? That’s practically giving it away for free!]

[Following Liao Ning means eating well and saving money!]

Observing that the golden clams had caught everyone’s attention, Liao Ning continued to provide further details about them.

“The golden clams are indeed inexpensive, but they have an excellent taste. Additionally, they are easy to clean, ensuring a pleasant texture. Most importantly, they possess a potent antidote effect, ” Liao Ning explained, emphasizing the unique qualities of the clams.

As she continued her demonstration, Liao Ning began preparing the porridge.

“To start, let’s handle the seafood. If you don’t have golden clams, scallops can be used as a substitute. Marinate all the seafood with ginger slices and pepper

for about 10 minutes.”

“Next, rinse the rice and cook it for approximately 15 minutes. Remember to stir it occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom!”

While Liao Ning was busy with the cooking process, Olift, who had been lurking in a corner, couldn’t help but salivate.

“Alright, the 15 minutes are up. Now let’s add the marinated seafood. Feel free to incorporate any vegetables you prefer! Let it boil for another 2 minutes, and it’ll be ready to serve!”

In no time, a pot of delicious seafood porridge was prepared. As soon as it was ready, Olift hurried over to Liao Ning’s side, looking at her with eager anticipation..
