Chapter 69: Release the Dragon Child?

```

...

On a long slope covered with patches of yellowish-green grass, a group of cattle and sheep were struggling to chew on roots, occasionally letting out a few complaint-filled bleats, obviously dissatisfied with nature's offering for their meal.

An uncle, wearing a woolly hat, had a somewhat darkened face that conveyed a certain helplessness.

At the foot of the slope was a grassy Pool Lake, which during rainy seasons saw a stream flowing down from the top of the slope, filling the whole slope with lush grass and even making a sight of blooming flowers, before all the water finally poured into the lake, sustaining the woods, meadows, villages around it...

Pool Village was thus a common pastoral village found in the upstream city regions, with many such villages relying on such local lakes.

"Uncle Zhan! Uncle Zhan!!"
