An assassin launching a sneak attack—nothing shameful about that.
Besides, Mo Shuying's sneak attack had been completely out in the open. Everyone had long seen him gathering power. Only Iskandar had eyes for Gilgamesh, and by the time he noticed the endless sword-light behind him, it was already too late. In an instant, he, his chariot, and his bulls were all swallowed up.
