Chapter 99: Setting Sail

Xia Muqing didn’t stop them. That was their retribution.

Jin Chao picked up the white flute from the ground. There was a round pearl on the white flute that matched the groove on the red flute in Xia Muqing’s hand.

Xia Muqing said, “It’s not surprising that they’re a pair.”

Upon hearing this, Jin Chao quietly placed the white flute back into his pocket.

Xia Muqing didn’t say a word when she saw him.

The two of them had just returned to the Jiang family when they saw Jiang Yifan rushing out with a smile.

He had been buried in the study for the past few days and had no idea what had happened.

When he saw Xia Muqing, he said excitedly, “I’ve found it! I’ve found the location of the Island of Soro.”

Xia Muqing was delighted and said, “Quick, let me take a look.”

Jiang Yifan’s voice attracted the others. Even Radiant Sun and the little phoenix flew over from the backyard.

When everyone was here, he coughed softly and unfolded the white paper in his hand. He pointed at a red cross and said, “It’s here.”

Everyone looked at the few crooked black lines that were drawn. They couldn’t understand at all.

Seeing that they couldn’t understand, Jiang Yifan said anxiously, “Look, this is the mouth of the mountain range and the sea. We can enter the sea from here. After passing three islands, we can see Soro Island. This is the shortest route.”

After his explanation, Xia Muqing could only see that it seemed to resemble a sea.

However… she still couldn’t understand the map. She frowned and said, “Yifan, can you draw it more clearly? We won’t be able to understand it.”

Jiang Yifan scratched his head. “This is the best I can do.”

He added, “It’s fine. Anyway, I’m with you guys. If you don’t understand, I can guide you.”

Xia Muqing turned pensive. It was too dangerous this time and she had never thought of asking him to come along.

Liu Yan knocked him on the head and said, “I know how well you can draw. I think you did it on purpose.”

Jiang Yifan stiffened before smiling.

Liu Yan sighed and said to Xia Muqing, “Miss Xia, I’ll leave my second son to you.”

Father Jiang reached out and hugged Liu Yan. His eyes were filled with relief.

They weren’t old-fashioned parents, and they had never thought of imprisoning their child under their wings forever. Their children could do whatever they wanted to do, and they should learn to bear the consequences of their actions.

Xia Muqing nodded solemnly.

They quickly packed their bags and left.

Liu Yan couldn’t help but cry out, “Yifan.”

Jiang Yifan turned to look at her. Liu Yan swallowed the words in her mouth and said, “Take care. I will wait for you to return.”

Jiang Yifan also felt his eyes watering, and he quickly nodded. He didn’t even say a word before turning his head, afraid of making a choked sound.

They didn’t know when they would see each other again.

They quickly arrived at the mouth of the mountain and sea. This place was a huge harbor. He bought a fishing boat from the nearby fishermen and finally chose one that was satisfactory.

They worked together to sail the ship to the sea. The fisherman who helped advised, “It’s not safe for you to go out to the sea now. The tides are coming.”

Jiang Yifan had previously studied more about the situation of the sea. There would be waves from time to time, and even if they waited for the tide to pass, they would still encounter them at some point.

Therefore, after thanking the fishermen, they were still determined to set sail.

Seeing their determination, the fishermen didn’t advise them anymore. They prepared the boat and left.

None of them knew how to sail a boat, and only Jiang Yifan had some theoretical knowledge. So the final mission was left to him.

He was quite excited.

They boarded the boat and set off.
