At the risk of drawing the wooden salamander-men's ire, Lu Xiaotian had stepped in to save Nie Qiantong for reasons of his own. Taking advantage of the violent explosion just now, which had loosened the law space condensed from the Cloud of the Law Mirror, he continuously released the power of spatial laws, letting it seep through the cracks in the law space. Even though large amounts of azure ripples began surging around them again, they posed far less of a threat in Lu Xiaotian's eyes.

Especially while fighting the wooden salamander-man, if the law space laid down by the Cloud of the Law Mirror sealed itself again, Lu Xiaotian's current cultivation would not be enough to open it by himself. Since the bow and arrows in Nie Qiantong's hands could break the wooden salamander pearls, and since he had the opportunity now, Lu Xiaotian naturally had to save Nie Qiantong. If they encountered a similar situation later, Nie Qiantong could destroy the wooden salamander pearls, allowing Lu Xiaotian to take the opportunity to open a breach in the law space.
Otherwise, if they encountered a similar situation later and he happened to be unlucky enough to face a siege by several wooden salamander-men, Lu Xiaotian might well end up dying here.
