### Chapter 7: Kings Face Off (11)
==============================
“Whoever touches my people must d*e!”
In the tranquil sky, the words of the Cold Moon Witch struck everyone’s hearts like a heavy hammer.
Upon hearing this,
Li Ying Tian immediately realized that there was no possibility for negotiation anymore, and that the demoness had come to take his life.
How absurd!
So what if she was once the woman of the Monster King?
That didn’t mean she was as strong as him.
Not to mention, wanting to k*ll the Sect Leader of Thousand Bird City, one of the Seven Great Immortal Sects, was not something you could just talk about.
One could only say that this demoness was overly arrogant!
Though the situation was increasingly unfavorable for Li Ying Tian, the contempt of his enemies squeezed out the last bit of madness within him.
He had already planned to go down with Fu Yetian and the others,
Now, adding a Cold Moon Witch to the mix was just icing on the cake.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
A lineup of fifty flying swords appeared overhead, like a formation ready for inspection.
The first attack wasn’t just a probe,
It was a decisive strike after finding a flaw.
But at that moment, people suddenly realized that the unusual black snow that was gently falling had grown heavier.
Moreover, when the black snow touched their skin, it didn’t merely brush past like ordinary snowflakes; it left behind deep gashes instead.
Ru Yu immediately drew her weapon, rhythmically swinging her sword to swat the strange black snow away.
However, moments later, her prized sword went “bang” and shattered under the pressure.
Terrified, she quickly dove into a nearby pit, trying to avoid the flurry of unseeable sharp weapons flying around.
Fu Yetian, on the other hand, nimbly dodged through the black snow. Although he hadn’t been injured yet, the hem of his clothes had inevitably been torn, making him look slightly ragged.
Niu Gan Dang dutifully knelt on the ground, letting the snowflakes slice through his flesh, with some of them stuck to his large bull head, making him look rather ridiculous.
bl**d trickled down from the top of his head, merging with the black snow on the ground, creating a bizarre dark red hue.
He believed this was a test of repentance from the queen,
So even though he was completely exposed to the deadly black snow, he couldn’t move a muscle.
Otherwise, he’d never get another chance.
Li Ying Tian had never encountered such a bizarre situation before.
Without even clashing weapons, he found himself trapped in place by the suddenly deadly snowflakes, which were as hard as diamond-grade weapons.
“Ha, just a minor trick!
As expected, you’re nothing more than this!”
He had faced demonesses skilled in devilry before, but a demoness adept in close combat was a rare find.
Seeing the Cold Moon Witch silently casting her spell, Li Ying Tian instantly concluded that his chance had come.
Once he closed in, his opponent would panic.
The fifty flying swords started spinning in the air at high speed, charging towards the witch still hovering in the air.
Amidst the chaotic winds, the descending black snow changed its trajectory.
Li Ying Tian leaped, closely tailing the spinning swords as he rushed at his opponent.
This is it!
To break her black snow formation, all he had to do was use the speed of the wind.
Want to k*ll me? You’ll d*e first!
As the spinning head formed by fifty flying swords approached the witch to within ten meters,
a tornado suddenly erupted from thin air, wrapping around the witch tightly.
What made Li Ying Tian’s breath catch was that the once scattered snowflakes, which seemed easily avoidable, were now swirling around the witch at high speed due to the tornado’s effect.
She can use wind speed too?
Guess I underestimated her.
But which is more powerful, your black snow or my flying swords? That’s still up in the air.
“Clink, clank!”
That was the sound of the hurricane of flying swords clashing with the tornado.
In just a moment, the outcome became painfully clear.
The flying swords Li Ying Tian prided himself on were now reduced to scrap metal, shattered by the tornado, swirling around and mixing with the black snow as though it were raining sleet.
Li Ying Tian didn’t have the time to be astonished,
because just at that moment, the flying swords had completed their mission.
The swirling tornado had drilled a small opening, through which Li Ying Tian could see the Cold Moon Witch’s slightly panicked face.
Now’s my chance!
He instantly summoned forth a massive red sword qi with his right hand, thrusting it toward the opening.
Anyone daring to provoke Thousand Bird City, anyone who dared to provoke Li Ying Tian, must d*e too!
The red sword qi shot through the opening, cutting across the witch’s neck like the Grim Reaper’s scythe.
In the official live streaming room, the audience, tense and glued to their screens, exclaimed,
“Ahhh… No way! The Cold Moon Witch can’t beat Li Ying Tian?”
“What the heck? This script is off!”
“The Cold Moon Witch can’t really be dead, right?”
“Impossible! How could the queen lose to that old geezer?”
“d*mn, does the righteous faction get a buff when fighting against great demons? I thought at least they’d have a proper spar, not a quick ending like this.”
“I can’t believe this; it all feels like a dream! If I just keep my eyes closed, none of this would have happened!”
“d*mn it! From now on, I’ll take on any Thousand Bird City disciple I see—player or NPC, it doesn’t matter!
I swear to avenge the Princess Witch!”
While the audience buzzed with disbelief over what they had just witnessed,
others at the scene were left speechless.
Fu Yetian blinked, somewhat dazed. With his skill, he had seen Li Ying Tian and the Cold Moon Witch’s every move clearly.
Looks like the older, the wiser!
Li Ying Tian had found his opponent’s flaw from the get-go, first using flying swords as bait to draw the witch’s attention fully onto defense.
Although the swords broke into pieces, it still revealed a chink in her defenses.
Seizing this fleeting opportunity,
he could not afford to wait a second longer because the tornado would soon patch up her defenses, making her invulnerable again.
But that one second allowed the red sword qi to pierce through the heart of the tornado, and with Li Ying Tian’s strength, no one could escape his blade.
Had he known it would be this easy to deal with the witch, he wouldn’t have been so anxious.
Heh, next, he just had to deal with that old man Li Ying Tian.
He glanced at Niu Gan Dang, who still hadn’t stood up, and frowned, “Hey, old bull, your queen has been killed, why are you still kneeling?”
The Great King of the Split Land slightly closed his eyes, devoutly stating, “The black snow still reigns; how could the queen easily perish under that old scoundrel?”
Fu Yetian was taken aback and immediately looked up.
The once gently falling black snow had actually grown heavier,
and the entire Floating City was engulfed in a shroud of black cloud, darker than the previous mist.

P.S.: Lunch is here! End of the month—anyone got spare tickets?
