So, she really did value her friends. At least, in her eyes, even though Yuxuan was gone, the three people in the vehicle
were all her friends.
Their last contact had been the day before yesterday. They'd talked about meeting up in a small town. It was basically like visiting relatives.
But in just one short day, the sudden turn of events had caught Long Bixian off guard.
The swarm behind them was enormous. Even though all he could see was a sea of dark shadows, Long Bixian was certain that, apart from humans, no
