If it were only a severe poison, Yun Xiao, with the Devouring Power of the Golden Snake Worm inside him, wouldn't be too worried. After all, even the potent poison of the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad couldn't affect him, so what about this Meridian Spirit poison?
However, even without this Meridian Spirit poison, Yun Xiao was far from being a match for Yan Chun, the Spirit Vein Realm strongman. If he wanted to stay alive, his only hope was a miracle, a miraculous aid from an outside force.
Miracles do sometimes happen indeed, just as Yun Xiao's left cheek became numb and he was left with no other options, Yan Chun's next attack never reached him, but was blocked by a somewhat familiar figure.
Seeing this scene, Xuan Zhi not too far away had an immediate change in his usually delighted complexion, his face turning dark and gloomy, triggering a twitching around the scars on his face.
