The reason for Xiao Tian's unease was, unsurprisingly, Tao Zhenghao's behavior.
According to Xiao Tian's estimation, the other party should have had some reaction by now. Yet, Tao Zhenghao remained silent with his head down, although the aura surrounding him became increasingly intense.
Such a reaction left Xiao Tian uncertain whether it was good or bad, but for him personally, the downside clearly outweighed the upside.
One either explodes in silence or perishes in it. Judging by Tao Zhenghao's current demeanor, it was indeed quite perplexing, making it impossible to discern his true intentions.
If it were the former, it would be easier to deal with. There were only two possibilities: one being that Tao Zhenghao might open his mind and voluntarily leave the closed Consciousness Realm; the other being that he cannot withstand the provocation and would attack Xiao Tian outright.
