Zhang Rongfang smiled slightly, about to speak.
Suddenly, from not far away, a shrill whistle drifted over.
He looked up to see a small boat quickly approaching the fleet from Xuekui Island.
"It should be the guiding ship for the trade goods." Lin Xiaochi introduced.
He cupped his fists and bowed to Zhang Rongfang.
"Daoist, should I go over first?"
"I will go with you." Zhang Rongfang replied.
Lin Xiaochi, after all, was just an ordinary Daoist of the Agarwood Palace. Though brave and resourceful, he was far from adept at considering details.
He thought a bit too naively about many things.
The two of them, along with five others, boarded the small boat prepared at the side. Once at sea, they rowed towards the guiding boat.
The two boats, one leading and one following, quickly returned towards Xuekui Island.
The small boat had a shallow draft, but once the oars were in motion, it was swift.
Before long, they passed through the reef zone and slowly landed on the shore.
