Du Muxiao had already been filled with thoughts of retreat as he caught the first sword just now.
In the brief encounter just now, Chen Fei displayed aspects that completely exceeded Du Muxiao's expectations.
The Coiling Sword Technique was purely defensive, with no offense or counter-attack, just deflecting and seizing the opportunity to escape.
However, in the recent sword strike, Du Muxiao's movements were directly halted, and he couldn't completely deflect the force. In this situation, the idea of leveraging this force to escape became a luxury.
His graceful footwork had no room to be showcased at this moment.
Du Muxiao didn't know how many times Chen Fei could use such an attack like the one just now, but he knew that he couldn't continuously withstand it.
While Coiling Sword Technique might not be broken, Du Muxiao's body couldn't endure the accumulating force, leading to vulnerabilities.
