Shadow Heaven One agreed to meet me.
But he set the meeting place at South Manor.
South Manor was quite far away. It was on an outer island, and we had to take a boat to get there.
Zhuangzi said he would contact Fan Yi and have him bring people with me.
Though he said there probably would not be any danger.
Zhuangzi was extremely confident in the loyalty of those people.
I did not let him contact Fan Yi. The situation on Little Barren Island was already somewhat chaotic, and as the head of the island guards, Fan Yi was carrying no light burden.
Besides, I had told him to find a way to get Liu Lan out of the Liu Family. This was a major matter. The Island Lord of Little Barren Island absolutely could not remain imprisoned by the Liu Family.

The leader of those hundred Mechanical people.
Zhuangzi had said that among the hundred Mechanical people, only Nos. 1, 2, and 3 were Intelligent Humans. The rest had not gained intelligence.
Moreover, No. 1 possessed almost the same strength as the Ten Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches. She was only slightly weaker, but she still had a chance of winning against the Shadows.

When I saw No. 1, I froze.
Though I had long known she was a Mechanical person, I was still stunned by her beauty.
I had never expected No. 1 to be a woman.
