The woman chuckled lightly before saying, "You no longer wish to kill me?"
Tian Hen fell silent, feeling somewhat embarrassed. How was he supposed to respond? The woman's tone was too presumptuous. Furthermore, he didn't even know her background, and that left Tian Hen with no courage to speak.
If he said he wanted to kill her, he couldn't be certain of the girl's identity. Once the words left his mouth, the battle would truly be to the death. On the other hand, if he said he dared not, he would indeed be humiliated, bringing shame to Shushan.
So he chose silence, standing there without saying a single word.
Yet everyone understood that this too was a form of compromise. Tian Hen had really lost face this time. At the same time, the look in their eyes when they regarded the young girl carried a touch of amazement. To have pushed a Divine Communication Realm powerhouse to this point, the girl's methods were truly astonishing.
