Perhaps because the fear of death had fully been hammered into him, Elder A didn't even show the slightest of hesitation as he dodged backwards. Meanwhile, Elder B fired another energy crescent towards the cripple, hoping to make it easier for his companion to make an escape. This prompt response of theirs had prevented the worst from happening, but Elder A was still unable to cleanly retreat and as a result, suffered another wound.
Not only that, Yun Lei showed no signs of slowing down at all. When one attack missed, he would immediately launch another. Fuelled by more profound energy than he had ever used at once before, he knew neither fatigue nor restraint. That energy would eventually run out and fighting with his aura fully unrestrained was the same as wantonly burning his soul energy. His time in battle was numbered, and this knowledge only made him even more vigorous.
