"You dare make a move in secret?"
The sudden turn of events stunned everyone present. An Immortal King had died just like that, without warning?
There had been no sign at all. It made no sense.
The three Giants of the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Palace were dumbfounded too. Then Tianheng's fury surged skyward, and he demanded an answer from Meng Chuan.
The Extinction Monk King appeared beside the fallen Immortal King in an instant and carefully examined every inch of his body.
"His body is intact, and there's nothing wrong with his Primordial Spirit. His power is even still flowing. Yet he is undeniably dead."
The Extinction Monk King's eyes grew grave. What had happened?
Then he and the other Giant turned their gazes on Meng Chuan.
They did not know the cause, but of everyone present, Meng Chuan seemed the most suspicious.
"I made a move in secret?" Meng Chuan echoed, his voice edged with mockery. "With so many people watching, and even kings observing from the boundless Void, could I have hidden it from everyone?"
"Could I have hidden it from the kings?"
Meng Chuan's voice rang across the Myriad Manifestations Great World.
Those watching could not help nodding silently.
The suspect had a point. A Giant could not strike without so many people noticing, and neither could a Supreme Giant.
"Besides, if I could kill a Peak Immortal King in an instant, silently, before all these witnesses..."
Meng Chuan turned his head. Though his eyes were closed, everyone felt a crushing pressure.
"Would I have compromised earlier?"
Tianheng and the other two Giants exchanged glances. Put that way, even they thought he was right...
"He makes it sound so convincing..." Wushi watched the turn of events with a solemn expression, though inwardly he could not help grumbling.
