Phew!
Su Xuan suddenly exhaled a sharp breath, his body slumping to the side.
He was completely out of strength. He had reserved some energy when he conjured the Upside-Down Buddha, but he'd used that last bit to form the Buddha's hand and strike Feng Zhengyuan!
At this point, he was virtually at the mercy of anyone.
All he could hope for was that the chaos would end here, with no more unexpected troubles.
"Kill! Kill him!"
But, contrary to his wishes, a dozen or so disciples from the Ten Cauldrons Sect suddenly burst through the flames. They rushed toward him with gleaming swords and sabers, intent on slaying him. They clearly intended to kill him while he was down.
"Hey," Su Xuan said, glancing weakly at the Third Elder. "Thanks, brother. You and... sister-in-law should run if you can. Don't worry about me."
"How could I!" The Third Elder's face was etched with panic, but he still rushed to Su Xuan's side, preparing to carry him on his back.
