Whoosh!
The surprise attack failed, and the beautiful woman's face tensed. Clearly, she had underestimated Ye Luo's strength; she hadn't expected him to be able to thwart her attack in such a manner.
However, as a trained assassin, a single failure did not deter her from seizing another opportunity to thrust her dagger toward Ye Luo's head once more.
Ye Luo snorted coldly, "Courting death!"
Assassins have their own rules, and the most common one is that if a strike misses, they flee a thousand miles away.
After all, the life of an assassin is extremely dangerous, always relying on seizing the opportunity for a lethal hit. If that fails, in order to preserve themselves, they must retreat immediately. Assassins are not warriors who fight head-on with swords.
The fact that this woman proceeded with a second attack after her first had missed was a clear indication that she didn't take Ye Luo's strength seriously, which was to be a fatal mistake.
