Chapter 31: Return to Lantau Island

The sea breeze billowed the red sails, and the Spirit of the Duck sped across the ocean, trailed by five other sailboats.

Li Yan and Cha Xiaodao, one savored the sea breeze while the other sat atop an overturned barrel indulging in his tobacco addiction. In the northwestern edge of the sea and sky, auroras spread out to the golden sun. Pirates under the Red Flag chanted loudly towards the auroras, which, according to them, marked the end of "Heavenly Mother Crossing the Sea."

Meanwhile, they were also very close to Lantau Island; unfortunately, due to "Heavenly Mother Crossing the Sea," they arrived almost two days later than Li Yan had originally anticipated.

"We must keep a close eye on that foreign devil. Even if Lin Yuanfu is in trouble, he cannot afford to be."

Cha Xiaodao laughed silently, "After all, the man is the Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi. How come your words carry less weight than those of an English merchant?"
