"Yes."
Chen Qing replied, his face impassive.
The three silently patrolled the dikes between the ponds.
Liu Cheng covered his face, looking wronged and terrified. Jiang Wu also had a look of lingering fear, secretly relieved that he had kept his eyes in check.
Chen Qing walked in front, his Heart and Spirit fully focused, sensing every movement around them.
Ponds Seven and Eight were in a relatively remote location, near a wild reed marsh at the edge of the Fishery.
Just as they rounded Pond Seven, a convoy of carriages appeared on the road ahead.
A horse-drawn carriage covered with a thick cloth was slowly heading out of the Fishery.
The carriage was branded with a clear 'Ma' character, identifying it as the convoy of the Ma Family, who had a long-standing partnership with the Wutai Sect and made regular purchases of Treasure Fish.
This was a common sight.
However, Chen Qing's gaze locked onto a subservient-looking carter beside the carriage.
