Baoya had been itching to go out for a while now, and like a lightning bolt, he jumped into Lin Yixuan’s arms.
“Cackle.”
Hunao rolled its eyes and put up a flattering smile.
It also wanted to go out and play.
“You can’t. The little dragon needs to be taken care of.”
Lin Qingluo grinned and poked its wet little nose.
“Ah-choo.”
Hunao’s nose tickled, and it sneezed.
“Hoo-hoo.”
The little dragon was startled by the sneeze, shrank its neck, and looked at the human and tiger duo with its trembling, mung bean-sized eyes.
“Longya, your growth speed is simply too slow.”
Lin Qingluo laughed, pinched its tail, lifted it from the wooden basin, and placed it on the ground.
“You’ve eaten so many small fish and shrimps, but you haven’t grown at all, and you’re still so timid, damaging the reputation of the Flood Dragon.”
“Hoo-hoo.”
The little dragon crouched with its four paws on the ground, curiously looking around, and moved its short legs, trying to crawl forward.
It wasn’t long before it was exhausted and could not crawl any further.
“Keep crawling, you’ve done too little. Only by exercising more can you grow faster.”
Lin Qingluo found it amusing, used a little more force with her fingers, and pushed it to crawl forward.
The little dragon moved its short legs and crawled a few more steps before curling up, refusing to move again.
“Hahaha.”
The young n were amused by its adorable and clumsy appearance, laughing heartily.

Zhuo County, a rural farm.
After half a year, the artificial water diversion project was completed, and the gates of the dam were opened to release water.
Waves churned, the torrent rushed, and the water flowed toward the villages along both banks of the river.
The decades-long drought, which had troubled the villagers, was resolved.
“Crackling.”
Villages along the riverbanks celebrated with drums, firecrackers, and music, singing and dancing to delightful folk songs.
“Hahaha, we will no longer have to fight with the villages upstream for water sources.”
“Yeah, we’ve waited our whole lives, and now the water has finally co to us.”
“Thank the gods, we won’t have to worry about water scarcity anymore.”
“With water in our village, we can plant rice and eat fragrant white rice.”
“Thank the Lin Clan’s army and General Lin. If it weren’t for the General’s consideration, we would never have had the chance to drink the water from the Black Sand River in our lifeti.”
“Yes, General Lin is our great benefactor!”
“Alas, it’s a pity that General Lin is leaving.”
“What? General Lin is leaving? Where to?”
“This old man doesn’t know the specifics, but I heard that there’s been a change within the Fengqi imperial court. The generals of the Lin Clan’s army are being transferred, and those stationed in the ten northern cities will gradually withdraw back to the Fengqi Empire.”
“Change in the court? Does that an a change in dynasties?”
“Possibly. The Fengqi Empress has passed away, and the Crown Princess hasn’t ascended the throne yet. The throne has been vacant for nearly a year, so it’s ti for a new emperor to be enthroned.”
“If Fengqi gets a new emperor, will that be good or bad for us?”
“Why fear? The ten northern cities are under the jurisdiction of the Lin Clan’s army and belong to an independent state, unrelated to the Fengqi Empire.”
“Even so, the generals of the Lin Clan’s army are ultimately Fengqi citizens and won’t disobey the empress’s orders.”
“Oh, I heard that the new Fengqi empress is from the Lin Clan. Her na is Lin Qingluo, the young lady who led the soldiers to capture Jiankang City and defeat the state preceptor.”
“That’s right, it’s her. I’ve also heard that she has a high status within the Lin Clan’s army, and the soldiers in the barracks privately call her the God of War.”
