"Indeed, it is quite the spectacle."
Song He watched for a while and felt that these carp seemed to not only be swimming towards the "Dragon Gate" but also to have some kind of purpose and obsession.
Even this obsession appeared to have affected the entire race—at the downstream of the river, where the water from the waterfall scattered, carps were still tirelessly swimming.
Even newborn fry were taken by their parents and elders to swim under the waterfall for a round, to withstand the waterfall's impact. Despite many fry dying on the spot, belly-up, it did not deter the carp's efforts.
The carps even claimed the pool under the waterfall for themselves, swimming at the entrance, not hesitating to drive away any Luminous Dolphin that attempted to approach.
While Song He was observing those fish, the voice of the Spirit Vein Dragon came to him:
"Friend Song, I have an impertinent request."
The tone was exceedingly polite, even with a hint of pleading.
