#430 - Chapter 164: King vs. King (I)

Liu Yuan knew well the difficulty of this battle; the human defense line was not so easily breached. If the Night King wanted to achieve victory, he must have other methods. What could they be? He pondered his next strategic move.

Just then, Liu Yuan suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching. His heart tightened, and he quickly maneuvered the Leviathan to roll sharply to the right. Almost simultaneously, an extremely thick beam of blue light grazed past him. The blue light was incredibly fast and carried an extremely low temperature, even causing a thin layer of frost to form on the Leviathan's surface. Merely brushing past, the Leviathan was shaken and on the verge of collapse by this icy aura.

In the blink of an eye, a massive ice dragon appeared before Liu Yuan, and it was indeed the Night King. The Night King's eyes gleamed with cold light, and the ice dragon he rode was twice the size of the Leviathan. A cold breath spewed from the dragon's mouth; it was its dragon breath that had launched the attack just now.

Liu Yuan felt the intense aura emanating from the Night King and was shocked, "What a powerful aura!" He immediately realized that compared to their brief encounter last time, the Night King's strength had increased by more than just a notch!

The current Night King had already stepped into the fourth tier, and even his appearance had undergone some changes. He was about three meters tall, his body encased in crystal-like armor, and the ice crown on his head had fused with his skull, resembling demonic horns. In his hand, he held the Lightbringer, shimmering with a ghostly blue ice flame, and with a forceful wave, the blue light slashed over like lightning.

Seeing this, Liu Yuan quickly steered the dragon to dodge. The Leviathan nimbly rolled, easily evading the Night King's attack. At this point, Liu Yuan understood the Night King's intention; his target was himself. Facing such a formidable enemy, Liu Yuan knew he couldn't be careless and had to give his all in this life-or-death battle. Whether it was destroying the Great Wall or deploying the naval fleet, everything he had done was to lure him here. Because in their last encounter, the Night King knew that he was the biggest obstacle to his southward advance. As long as he eliminated him, even dragons couldn't stop his progress.

Liu Yuan's lips curled into a slight smile, "Heh, nice idea, but who gave you the confidence to think you can take me down?" As his voice fell, he slowly extended his right hand, and the Dragon-Slaying Broadsword appeared in his hand as if by teleportation. At the same time, the gold and silver armor on his body bloomed like golden flowers, eventually completely covering his body with the Ironclad Cavalry Kirin Armor, emitting an aura of mystery and majesty.

He lightly blew a loud whistle, then leaped up, directly flying with qi, rapidly approaching the ice dragon like lightning.

Liu Yuan knew that the strengthened ice dragon was more than a match for the four dragons, even if they were tied together. To avoid harming Daenerys and the child in her womb, he immediately ordered the dragons to retreat! Upon receiving his signal, the Leviathan turned and flew south at full speed without hesitation. The Leviathan roared at the other three dragons, and Drogon, Viserion, and Rhaegal, upon hearing it, also flew south without hesitation.

"Stop! Drogon! I command you to turn back!" No matter how Daenerys called out from Drogon's back, Drogon wouldn't obey her command. In the blink of an eye, the four dragons had already left the battlefield.

Liu Yuan had already flashed onto the back of the ice dragon. He raised the Dragon-Slaying Broadsword high and slashed down fiercely. A look of surprise flashed in the Night King's eyes, but he reacted quickly, immediately raising his sword to block. This strike was powerful and heavy, and the force directly pressed the Night King to one knee, and cracks appeared on the ice dragon's solid back armor.

The Night King's eyes emitted a brilliant blue light, and the ice flame on the Lightbringer became even more intense, as if to burn everything. He gripped the sword hilt tightly with both hands, and with tenacious perseverance, he stood up straight. Then, he quickly swung the greatsword backhand, and another dazzling sword light flashed.

Liu Yuan agilely dodged to the side, while simultaneously supporting himself with one hand on the ground, his right leg fiercely kicking towards the Night King's abdomen. This kick was full of force, and the Night King was kicked back more than a dozen steps, but still barely managed to steady himself. The ice dragon, unable to withstand the force, swayed in the air, and its flight path became erratic. It roared angrily, while releasing the cold air from its entire body.

However, Liu Yuan didn't seem to be affected by the cold air. Only a thin layer of frost formed on his boots and leg guards. This was thanks to the Kirin Armor he was wearing. This armor had been around for a hundred years, and after his continuous reinforcement with special materials, it had now been upgraded to the orange legendary level. Therefore, Liu Yuan had a strong resistance to elemental attacks.

The Night King charged up again, using his massive body and the heavy ice armor on his body to forcibly ram. Liu Yuan crossed his arms and steadily braced himself in front, his legs forcefully rooted on the ice dragon's back armor.

However, after the Night King advanced, even in this world, his strength was already quite strong, already on par with Liu Yuan. Relying on his size advantage, he forcibly pushed Liu Yuan back more than ten meters. His legs dragged two deep grooves on the ice dragon's back.

The ice dragon let out a painful wail, and its body struggled violently, trying to throw the two guys on its back off.

The Night King looked at Liu Yuan easily dodging his attacks, and a surge of anger welled up in his heart. He had thought that he already possessed enough power to easily defeat this human, but he didn't expect the other party to be so difficult to deal with. Liu Yuan, on the other hand, displayed excellent strength and skill, making the Night King begin to feel somewhat棘手.

Just as the two were fighting, the situation on the ground took a new turn. The Dothraki cavalry, with their skilled horsemanship, quickly approached the wight archers. They brandished their scimitars and charged towards the enemy like a whirlwind. The wight archers tried to resist, but the Dothraki's speed and strength made them unable to withstand. The Dothraki cavalry's rapid assault disrupted the wights' formation, causing them to fall into chaos.

Immediately afterward, the Winter Wolves also charged up. These heavily armored warriors formed a perfect coordination with the Dothraki cavalry, and began to strangle the wight archers. Their longswords flashed with cold light, and each strike could take a wight's life.

However, at this moment, the Others made a new move. A barrage of ice cones rained down, like a hailstorm. Many warriors were unable to dodge in time, were pierced by the ice cones, and fell to the ground. In an instant, the number of casualties exceeded hundreds, and the originally tight formation was broken up.

Suddenly appearing was an elite unit of Others, wearing heavy ice armor that shimmered with a cold light. All the Others were riding huge ice dragons or other terrifying mounts, looking majestic. The round of ice cone attacks just now was launched by this group of Others, a powerful magic volley skill.
