I could say with absolute certainty that they were coming for the central control room—for the doctor.
The enemy had probably realized that their data tampering had encountered resistance, and that resistance came from the manor's central control room.
So they wanted to stop the doctor.
But what could the two of them accomplish alone? The enemy was underestimating the manor's strength too much, wasn't it?
Of course, perhaps they intended to outsmart us. After all, in many people's eyes, Fan Jia and Yu Ding were members of the manor.
They were among the Ten Heavenly Stems.
If there was an information gap, it was entirely possible for them to use those identities to infiltrate the manor.
But we had discovered them long ago and reacted in advance.
I followed Yu Gui and the others to the manor entrance and said to Yu Gui and the manor guards, "When Fan Jia and Yu Ding show up, make sure to stop them. Better yet, capture them both."
Yu Gui and the manor guards said nothing. No matter what, I was the manor's master now.
Liu Lan ran out as well and stood beside me. "I don't think I can stay in the manor forever. I have to go out."
I glanced at her. "The situation outside is probably terrible right now. Are you sure you want to leave at a time like this?"
"That's exactly why I need to go out. It seems there are still many hidden enemies. Even the Ten Heavenly Stems have run into trouble, which means the Four Great Families have lost their greatest support. I'm worried something even worse will happen. I know staying in the manor is much safer for now, but don't forget—I'm the island master. There are many things I have to do!"
