Those who wanted to rush out and defend the Sect with their Elders and Sect Master suddenly halted their movements. They didn't need to be smart to realise how unrealistic that would be. After all, they couldn't even discern the cultivation of their enemies.
Seeing the blinding Golden Wings on Xuefeng's back, looking as if he descended from heavens. The Legacy Disciples, as well as Law Enforcement Disciples, couldn't get themselves to move just so they could throw their lives away.
Their Elder who was so much stronger than them dropped dead and the Sect Barrier, that needed at least a few Spirit Monarchs to destroy, was crushed with just one attack. The choice was obvious. Sect wouldn't matter to them if they were dead and being selfish as most cultivators were, they couldn't sacrifice themselves like that.
