The group enjoyed a relaxing dive, with Fang Cheng even taming a shark. They returned to the yacht with a haul of seafood, which Lin Chuqiao and Zhou Xiumei prepared into a feast. As they finished eating, Pan Wendi asked about their next activity.

"Let’s head near the Changyuan Trench and do some fishing. I heard the waters there are very deep, and you can often encounter large, delicious deep-sea fish."

"Changyuan Trench?"

Wen Xin was the first to raise both hands in agreement, exclaiming excitedly:

"Brother, I studied this geographical term in books. It’s one of the deepest trenches in our country, and I want to go there to catch big fish too!"

Lin Chuqiao and Zhou Xiumei exchanged a glance and had no objections to the afternoon’s plan, nodding in unison.

Pan Wendi’s eyes lit up instantly, and he slapped his thigh:

"Brother Cheng, you really know your stuff! That’s the old spot we visited last year. The fish there bite fiercely!"

He turned and strode towards the driving room, grabbing the communication microphone and shouted loudly:

"Everyone, sit tight and hold on, target Changyuan Trench, full speed ahead!"

Accompanied by the engine’s gradually increasing roar, the "Sea God" churned up white waves at its rear.

The yacht drew a beautiful arc on the sea, riding the wind and waves, speeding towards the waters west of Yong’an Island.

..................

A dozen minutes later.

The "Sea God" slowly decelerated, reaching the target location.

Circles of white waves gradually subsided under the reverse thrust of the propeller.

The sea near the Changyuan Trench was completely different from the shallow waters with coral reefs.

Here, it was bottomless, and the sea surface appeared a heavy, oppressive dark blue, seemingly able to swallow all sunlight.

Fang Cheng walked to the edge of the deck, grasping the alloy railing, and looked out into the distance.

At the end of his sight, a long, narrow cape slanted from the island’s main body into the ocean.

Rugged rocks, washed by the waves over millennia, displayed outlines of dark brown textures.

From afar, it resembled a giant ancient beast lying dormant on the sea, exposing its strong back.

Extending inward from the cape, the mountain ridges undulated continuously, with dense subtropical trees swaying in the wind, layering into green waves.

Among the thick shade, a few grand buildings made of gray and white bricks and stones appeared intermittently.

That was where the headquarters of the True Thought Society was located.

"Come, come, the big game rods are ready!"

Pan Wendi’s loud voice broke the sea’s silence.

He dragged and carried several metal tackle boxes and rod bags out of the cabin.

The bags contained neatly arranged rods of various sizes and materials, with reels reflecting a titanium alloy sheen in the sun.

Wen Xin held a bucket of specially made bait, trotting along behind him.

Pan Wendi loved going out to sea to fish, and the storage room below the cabin was almost filled with various top-of-the-line fishing gear.

Not just for their group, but even if another group joined, it would be more than enough.

Lin Chuqiao, although a pampered young lady, was no stranger to sea fishing.

She stepped over, casually picked a lightweight lure rod, and skillfully pulled out the line, checking the reel’s tension and the smoothness of the guides.

Watching beside her, Wen Xin got excited and mimicked her by picking up an ultra-fine pole rod, fiddling with the fishing line.

Zhou Xiumei, on the other hand, brought over a few folding chairs from the resting area, thoughtfully placing them in the shade.

She tidied her hair blown by the sea breeze and smiled somewhat shyly:

"I don’t know how to use these, I’ll just sit here and watch you fish."

Fang Cheng withdrew his gaze from afar, turned to the group, and said:

"You guys go ahead and play, I plan to go below to get something."

Lin Chuqiao paused her actions, turned her head, and a touch of curiosity flashed in her eyes:

"Brother Cheng, are you diving again?"
