Chapter 256: Kill Again!
The red light had not yet faded when a sword qi of unparalleled sharpness cleaved down, instantly splitting the entire Star Pick Building in half!
With that sword strike, the whole building began to tilt westward. The nine-layered glazed tiles on the roof shattered one after another, splintering into hundreds of sharp-edged shards that resembled a downpour of scalding crystal in the noonday sun.
In a chain reaction, the twelve massive nanmu pillars began to explode sequentially from the base. The beams, once carved with astrological images, collided mid-air, scattering splinters that formed tiny golden whirlwinds amidst the dust clouds.
The Bronze Sky Gazer smashed through three floors before crashing to the ground, creating a web of cracks in the white jade base.
The hundred-year-old agarwood stored within was whipped up into the air by the shockwave, mixing with the gray-yellow dust from the crumbling stone bricks to form a towering mushroom cloud.
The entire Zhaoge City witnessed this apocalyptic scene clearly.
Ji Zi, not far away, widened his eyes and cried out after a long pause, "Your Majesty!!!"
...
"My dear wife!"
King Zhou was both shocked and furious, having no idea what had happened. He felt as if the very world was turning upside down, the ground beneath him unsteady, and the world before him seemed on the verge of destruction.
