No. That's exactly what he was trying to avoid happening, panicking slightly as the blade came down at Saori. His hand goes out, with what would have normally been a blast, reaching for something, anything to save her from being sliced in half.

Instead, there's a small flash of light and the creature's blade stops as its face twists up in fear, taking quite a few steps back from the two of them and covering its eyes. It shrieks again, shaking from the holy light that came from him, unable to move for the moment.

Vegeta however, looks stunned and is trying to figure out exactly what he did. He quickly shakes it off, raising the sword in front of him. This is why he started to learn to use a sword, isn't it? For this exactly situation? He hopes the time he took to practice would pay off, charging at the beast.
