No one among the crew objected to Ye Yuan's decision.
Besides, the living conditions aboard the Yushui Hao were quite good.
Other than some rocking at night, it was no different from being on the island.
The winds and waves at sea were clearly much stronger at night than during the day.
Fortunately, the crew had long since grown accustomed to such conditions, so naturally they had nothing to fear.
After dinner, the Yushui Hao dropped anchor.
Ye Yuan led the crew to their rooms to rest.
Those who did not want to turn in so early could stay in the recreation room to play cards or use the game machines provided on the ship.

Late at night, the crew had all fallen asleep.
Ye Yuan, meanwhile, went into the sea alone.
The reason he had chosen to rest in these waters was actually selfish.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Ye Yuan arrived at the spot on the seabed where he had discovered the chest that day.
Ye Yuan gently brushed aside the sand covering
