"No problem."
Facing Xie Jiu's kind concern, Fan Wu simply replied with two words.
"As long as you're okay!" Xie Jiu sighed with relief.
His voice still carried a hint of shock, obviously not yet over the scenes that had just unfolded.
Taking a moment, he continued, "I had not expected to be rescued once again by Daoist Priest Fan. Had it not been for Daoist Priest Fan's timely assistance, I fear that both the banner lord and I would have had slim chances of survival tonight."
This was no flattery.
Xie Jiu was simply stating the facts.
With the strength of him and Shen Ji Yue, if the Ghost Groom and the Ghost Bride had been separate... they might not have necessarily defeated them, but at least they could have held their ground for a while.
But when the Ghost Groom and Ghost Bride merged into one, their combined power was simply too much for them.
Not to mention holding their ground for a while...
Whether they could last even ten breaths was a question!
