Xiahou Shuying's actions were already on the verge of breaking the rules. The rules of Jincheng forbade the use of weapons because they were afraid of causing too much damage. Her use of saber aura was similar to using a saber. Whether it was against the rules or not depended on the Enforcer's judgment.
She didn't take out her weapon, but the saber aura was real. The saber aura was accompanied by the sound of the wind whistling. It wasn't transparent, but had a little yellow color. The moves of the Desert Sect all seemed to have a little yellow color.
If she was really hit by the saber aura, it wouldn't be much different from being hit by a saber. Ordinary people definitely wouldn't dare to take this move with their bare hands. Shanghai Yun wouldn't be able to either. It seemed that Xiahou Shuying had held back just now. Otherwise, it would be against the rules to injure Shanghai Yun too severely. She was here to establish her uncle's prestige, not to cause trouble.
Now that she was fighting against Du Feng, it wouldn't be that easy. Hence, she used her saber aura without holding back. The whistling saber aura was extremely fast. It looked like it could probably cut off one of Du Feng's arms. She couldn't care so much. Anyway, Du Feng was just a guest. Even if he was seriously injured, it wouldn't be a big deal. At most, some merit points would be deducted.
The saber aura was so sharp that everyone felt that Du Feng should avoid it temporarily and use his movement skills to win. However, Du Feng didn't do that. He actually stretched out two fingers.
Previously, he used two fingers to push away Xiahou Shuying's fist. This time, when facing the sharp saber aura, he actually used two fingers to take it. Was he courting death? If the saber slashed down, it wouldn't just be two fingers. Starting from the shoulder, his entire arm would be cut off.
When Shanghai Yun, who was hiding at the side, saw this scene, she couldn't help but frown. She knew that Du Feng was strong and capable. However, he was underestimating his opponent. There was a price to pay for underestimating his opponent. Why hadn't he changed his habit of being arrogant?
Shangguan Erjun was a little stupid and couldn't understand what was going on. He just felt that Du Feng's action of stretching out two fingers was very cool. He couldn't help but shout, "Brother Du is so cool!"
It would have been better if he hadn't shouted. Once he did, people would have thought that he was crazy. First, he gave his position to someone else, and now he was shouting and screaming. No wonder people said that Shangguan Qingming raised a stupid son. Now it seemed that it was true. Most of the spectators were from the clans that supported Xiahou Huangyan. They had always disliked Shanghai Erjun and hoped that Du Feng would lose as soon as possible.
Clang!
Just when everyone thought that Du Feng was bound to lose, the sound of metal clashing rang out in the air. What was going on? Where did the weapon come from?
It was against the rules to use weapons in Jincheng. Of course, Du Feng was not that stupid. He shot out a sword energy from his finger, forcefully knocking away Xiahou Shuying's saber energy. It sounded like swords clashing, and the sound was very crisp.
Aiya, Xiahou Shuying was also shocked. She didn't expect that this Du Feng not only had great strength, but his sword arts were also very powerful. Many sword cultivators might have refined their flying swords very well, but they weren't good at close-range sword arts. If they didn't have a weapon in their hands, their strength would be greatly reduced.
But Du Feng was different. He clearly didn't have a sword in his hand, but his sword fingers weren't weak at all. The sword energy that he emitted had a very powerful penetrative power, giving Xiahou Shuying a fright.
Why did she get a fright? It was because the sword energy was faster than the saber energy. Saber energy was used for horizontal slashes or vertical slashes. The attack area was large, and the power was great. On the other hand, sword energy was used to stab. The attack area was small, but the speed was fast. Furthermore, it used a single point to break the surface, so the penetrative power was stronger.
Du Feng used sword energy to knock away her saber energy just now, but if he used another method and directly stabbed her chest, it would probably open up a bloody hole. That sword energy was fast enough to catch up to the saber energy. Using the same logic, it was also fast enough to stab Xiahou Shuying herself.
"How dare you!"
Xiahou Shuying was still unconvinced. She knew that Du Feng wouldn't really dare to hurt her. If Du Feng really hurt her with sword energy, then the City Lord Manor would have to respond. Using sword energy to injure someone could also be convicted.
The current situation was that Xiahou Shuying could use saber energy as she pleased. If she hurt someone, it would just be an accident. At most, she would be fined some merit points. On the other hand, Du Feng could only use sword energy to defend and not attack. If he really hurt the City Lord's niece, he would definitely be convicted.
In fact, many clan leaders and clan members were already regretting it. If they had known this would happen, they wouldn't have forced City Lord Huangfu to leave. Who would have thought that the new City Lord Xiahou would be so ruthless, forcing all the clans to submit to him?
Those who hadn't submitted to Xiahou Huangyan were all like the Shangguan family, which had some connections in the Holy City. However, their descendants were often abused, so they were very angry, but they couldn't find a way to take revenge.
Thus, the crowd of spectators was divided into two groups. Those who were closer were the residents who supported City Lord Xiahou. They were cheering for Xiahou Shuying, hoping that she would quickly defeat Du Feng and make the Shangguan family lose face. And those who were hiding in the distance were the residents who opposed City Lord Xiahou.
Their clansmen and themselves had all been picked on by the Xiahou family, so all of them were itching with anger. They hoped that Du Feng would ruthlessly teach Xiahou Shuying a lesson, gain face for the Shangguan family, and also take revenge for them.
"How do you know? I've never grown up, but I've always been brave."
Du Feng once again used sword energy to shatter Xiahou Shuying's saber energy. He wasn't afraid of being injured nor was he in a hurry to win. First, saber energy consumed more energy than sword energy. Second, his foundation was more solid than his opponent's. Although Xiahou Shuying was at the eighth level of the World King realm, the power of divinity in her body wasn't as much as Du Feng's.
"You, you dare to take liberties with me!"
Xiahou Shuying was so angry that her face turned red. She slashed out at Du Feng with her palm again, also slashing out a saber energy.
"You really know how to wrongly accuse a good person. I'm just brave, so how is that taking liberties with you?"
Du Feng wasn't just strong, but his skin was also thick enough. He was able to resolve Xiahou Shuying's attack while also insulting her. Shangguan Yun was finally relieved. She knew that Du Feng definitely wouldn't lose, but she was still a bit angry. Since this fellow had the ability, why didn't he hurry up and beat up Xiahou Shuying instead of flirting with her?
"You're taking liberties with me. I'm going to tell my uncle."
Xiahou Shuying couldn't focus on Du Feng several times and felt a bit helpless. But she still wasn't convinced. She found a chance to kick him again. She thought that since Du Feng wasn't on guard, her sneak attack might succeed. As a result, she was kicked back by Du Feng. Moreover, her calf was particularly painful.
