The car driving straight towards Xu Fan was none other than Jiang Wu and Gongsun Qin, who had gone and returned!

At this moment, the sunset had completely sunk below, and darkness swept over the earth like a tide. On the pitch-black highway, Jiang Wu was driving the car, desperately pressing the accelerator, speeding like lightning! And beside him, Gongsun Qin's eyes were already red.

"Xu Fan will definitely be fine! Definitely be fine!"

Gongsun Qin repeatedly muttered the words, unsure if she was comforting Jiang Wu, whose hands were trembling slightly, or comforting the panic within herself.

"Hey, who exactly is Xu Fan to you?"

At this moment, beside Gongsun Qin sat a girl with sky-blue hair and eyes, looking no more than in her twenties, dressed in revealing shorts, exposing her long legs completely.

"Xu Fan… he's my friend. Avril, there are thousands of bats, and among them, dozens have very strong auras. Are you confident?"

Gongsun Qin looked at the blue-haired girl beside her, full of worry.

This blue-haired girl was the naive innocent friend Gongsun Qin had met at the old city hotel. Just when Jiang Wu and Gongsun Qin were heading to New City, they saw a girl waving by the roadside. She seemed lost and wanted to hitch a ride. Gongsun Qin, soft-hearted, boarded the car only to find out she was an acquaintance.

Gongsun Qin's naive friend noticed Gongsun Qin's odd expression and asked about it. Gongsun Qin told her everything they had experienced, unexpectedly prompting the blue-haired girl to direct Jiang Wu towards Xu Fan's location.

How could Jiang Wu agree?

However, the blue-haired girl Avril showed a feat right in front of them. With a wave of her fair hand, a milky white light illuminated the night.

That milky white energy aura even shocked Gongsun Qin at the peak of the Innate Realm.

Under Avril's strong request, Gongsun Qin and Jiang Wu obediently took her with them, speeding towards Xu Fan.

Their departure had originally been ordered by Xu Fan. Now, with a powerful teammate joining, Gongsun Qin and Jiang Wu were naturally eager to arrive swiftly, longing to sprout wings and fly directly to Xu Fan's side.

Though under Jiang Wu's control, the car rushed like an angry dragon, yet everyone had lost much hope for Xu Fan's survival.

After all, the number of bats was overwhelming! Covered the sky! Like an ocean!

And Xu Fan was entirely alone!

Finally, the car roared to a stop at the scene where Xu Fan was attacked by bats. Amidst the fierce grinding sound of the tires against the ground, the car halted, and the three directly opened the doors to step out. The milky white light in Avril's hands rose, brightly illuminating the scene before them.

Like a downpour of blood, the entire highway surface was entirely flooded and hidden by blood, the thick stench assaulting them, making one want to vomit.

And around them lay bat corpses, numbering at least a few hundred upon casual count, spread densely like dead leaves on the blood-red ground.

A blood-red figure stood at the center of the scene, like an Asura Demon!

Gongsun Qin and Jiang Wu stared wide-eyed at the blood-red figure, their faces filled with shock.

Gongsun Qin and Jiang Wu were engulfed in shock, while the blue-haired girl Avril beside them was muttering spells, her hand raised, the milky white light rising, making her appear sacred.

In that moment, Avril resembled an Angel.

However, in the next moment, the pure and holy milky white light in Avril's hand transformed into sharp arrows, speeding towards the demon-like figure in the center.

Evidently, Avril mistook Xu Fan as an enemy.

Xu Fan revealed a bitter smile. Although Xu Fan wasn't clear about this blue-haired girl's identity, seeing she arrived with Jiang Wu and Gongsun Qin, it was obvious she intended to help and save him.

Thus, Xu Fan didn't counter against Avril but merely twisted his body, dodging the incoming shower of milky white arrows.

The milky white arrows landed on the ground, transforming into specks of white light, slowly dissipating, while the holy aura gently spread across this space.

The bat corpses all over the ground, amid this divine white light, disappeared like a vanishing mist.

"This energy seems… somewhat strange."

Xu Fan looked at the scene before him with slight amazement. This milky white energy appeared particularly effective against these bats, and the blue-haired girl Avril before him was like a small sun, continuously emanating strong energy waves.

"Being able to withstand my Holy Arrow, your strength seems impressive. Try this move!"

Avril said, her small hand reaching into the dazzling white light before grabbing a milky white Broad Sword.

The girl wielding a Broad Sword, the battle style appeared somewhat bizarre.

At this point, Gongsun Qin finally recovered, hurriedly stopping Avril from launching another attack, rushing to Xu Fan's side, disregarding the blood stench on Xu Fan, and directly hugged him tightly.

"I thought you were dead…"

Usually carefree, Gongsun Qin now seemed like a little girl, tears flowing uncontrollably in Xu Fan's embrace.

Xu Fan patted Gongsun Qin's shoulder, chuckling in a cheerful manner, "I promised your master to ensure your safety, so how could I die so easily?"

At this moment, the blue-haired girl Avril glanced at the embracing Xu Fan and Gongsun Qin, turning her eyes away instinctively.

Evidently, this unexpected display of affection made the blue-haired girl uncomfortable.

"Mr. Xu…"

At this moment, Jiang Wu stepped forward, kneeling in front of Xu Fan, his tiger eyes red.

"I, Jiang Wu, have never abandoned my friends to escape alone in my life! Today, facing those bats, I… I was truly scared!"

Jiang Wu knelt before Xu Fan, a look of profound sorrow.

Xu Fan, seeing Jiang Wu's expression, felt deeply moved.

An ordinary person had done far more than what a regular person could endure for his sake.

Previously, when Xu Fan ordered Jiang Wu to leave with Gongsun Qin, it was a command issued forcefully to persuade them to go.

Now, Xu Fan helped Jiang Wu up and solemnly said, "Mr. Jiang, the one who should apologize is me, Xu Fan. In the future, I will unconditionally do one thing for Mr. Jiang."
