Welcome Back, Your Majesty, the Human Emperor (4K) (Continued)

Before the eyes of the assembled heroes,

the holy light heavy weapon Guang Yuan had activated was as fragile as papier-mâché before that pitch-black divine banner. It shattered inch by inch in an instant, eventually dispersing into a sky full of light rain.
