Su Heng looked up at the sky, his vision nearly filled by the immense scepter.
Before the end of the scepter came crashing down, the ground beneath his feet seemed to tremble, unable to bear the weight.
Wave after wave of scorching gusts hit Su Heng's face, the air around him compressed and scattered, a suffocating sensation enveloping him.
"I didn't expect that you pillar gods had some skill."
Clapping his hands, Su Heng laughed excitedly, "But that's just as well. It wouldn't be interesting if I killed you all too easily. You should struggle a bit, even if you can't make any changes. It will bring me more joy."
"You insolent brat!" Kagous's angry eyes flared, enraged.
His arms' muscles bulged as he gripped the golden scepter tightly, making it creak. In the sky above, the falling speed of the scepter suddenly increased by a third. It was at that moment that Su Heng's gaze sharpened.
Thump!
A muffled sound like a drum beat emanated from his heart.
