The village at the foot of the mountain, Chen Family Village, though seemingly not small, was clearly not very affluent.
The most imposing building wasn't the houses of the village head or the elders, but instead, it was a Dragon King Temple built right beside the Luoshui River.
No one knew how much money or labor the villagers had spent on it.
Although the Dragon King Temple only had two courtyards, it was adorned with green tiles and carved beams, decorated throughout with flowers and plants, and exquisitely built.
At this moment.
It wasn't only the two children who were sobbing that hadn't slept in the middle of the night in the village.
All over a thousand villagers were awake.
All of them were kneeling neat and orderly on both sides of the entrance to that temple, as far as the eye could see, a sea of human heads in the darkness.
