Chapter 228: Is Asura God-Level?

The only one left standing was the Wind Wolf Priest who had been kicked down by the Wind Wolf King before, as she was the only one completely sober.

Just then, a figure silently landed behind her and a firm palm struck her in the back.

With a thud, the Wind Wolf Priest stumbled forward, screamed in pain.

She swiftly turned around, only to see a human man shrouded in black, his face hidden behind a metallic mask.

"You... who are you?"

Asura looked at her silently, as if transported back to years past. His gaze then shifted to the distant altar adorned with corpses, and his eyes filled with anger and loathing.

He yearned to save those innocent humans but lacked the strength to do so. Revealing himself during the ritual would have only led to an onslaught by the Wind Wolf Clan\'s numerous members.

And now, the demon who had once ordered the killing of his mother in this life stood before him. Despite his steadfast resolve, he found it hard to control his emotions at this moment.

His right hand rose and a Wind Blade formed in his palm, shaping into a clawed hand and slowly reaching toward the Wind Wolf Priest.

"No, no—" The Wind Wolf Priest roared in anger, but to her horror, she found herself completely immobilized. Even her voice froze.

At that moment, a strange energy fluctuation appeared from the distant altar, bursting forth with a formidable will.

But Asura, too, lifted his head; his eyes were white, with a hint of golden light flickering within.

The will that had just risen from the altar immediately shrank back and dissipated, as if it had encountered something terrifying.

The cyan claw was already gripping the Wind Wolf Priest\'s neck. The sharp, condensed Wind Blade pierced her skin bit by bit, allowing blood to flow freely.

Asura swung his hand again and another Wind Blade flew out, also shaped like a claw. It slowly landed on the priest’s chest, ripping it open and extracting her heart.

The powerful life force of the demon race meant that the Wind Wolf Priest did not die immediately; instead, she looked at the man before him, filled with terror.

A silver figure floated down from afar at that moment, arriving just in time to witness this bloody scene.

When he sensed her approach, the Wind Blade claws holding the Wind Wolf Priest instantly dissipated, causing the body and heart to fall together simultaneously.

With his head bowed, Asura silently mourned the souls that had once perished.

"What are you doing?" Mei Gongzi demanded in a low voice.

"It was still sober and needed to be eliminated. I\'m making sure there are no witnesses," Asura said lightly.

Mei Gongzi could clearly feel something off about his emotions. However, looking at the Wind Wolf Clan members who had all passed out in the backyard, her shock was too great to think of anything else.

He had poisoned all the Wind Wolf Clan\'s strongest members, meaning no one would know even if they killed everyone here. The Wind Wolf guards in the front yard had also been drinking and had all passed out.

Asura turned to her and said, "Go ahead," pointing at the Wind Wolf King who lay on the table.

The fingers of Mei Gongzi\'s right hand turned into claws, tearing through the Wind Wolf King\'s spine. The Wind Wolf King\'s body convulsed violently, then turned still. With his spine severed and completely paralyzed, the Wind Wolf King could do nothing to prevent her claws from tearing apart his throat.

Mei Gongzi\'s gaze swept over to the other Wind Wolf Clan\'s strong members. Just as she was about to continue, Asura grabbed her shoulder.

"Let\'s go. The fewer traces we leave, the less likely we are to be discovered."

Mei Gongzi looked towards the altar, lips pressed tightly together. Those were humans, all humans!

"I want to remove them from the altar..." Mei Gongzi\'s voice trembled slightly.

"No." Asura shook his head. "That would reveal our identity as humans."

"But..."

"No buts. Once it\'s revealed that humans took action, do you realize how many humans will suffer? There are other ways to give these victims peace... don’t worry about that."

Mei Gongzi took a deep breath, then, with a fierce grab, crushed the skull of a sleeping Wind Wolf demon beside her before turning away and swiftly departing.

Asura quickly cleaned up the traces, ensuring no remnants of aura were left behind. After giving the altar one final look, he also rapidly left the ancestral home of the Wind Wolf Clan.

Mei Gongzi returned to the small inn, only to find that Asura had not followed. There was still no sign of him after waiting a full quarter of an hour. Moreover, there was no alarm raised outside. The Wind Wolf Clan\'s situation would not be discovered anytime soon.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Mei Gongzi stood up, instantly on guard.

"Little Mei, it\'s me," a pleasant voice came from outside.

Mei Gongzi hurriedly went to open the door, and Su Qin walked in.

"Where is he?" Mei Gongzi asked softly.

"I followed him for a bit, but then I stopped. I think he noticed me early on," Su Qin said, frowning slightly.

"He noticed you?" Mei Gongzi couldn\'t help but express surprise.

Su Qin nodded. "I followed behind you and then followed him when you left. This Asura... he\'s no simple figure. I didn\'t get too close, but as I approached, I vaguely saw wind element fluctuations around him, though it could also be due to the dense wind elements in the backyard of the Wind Wolf ancestral home.

"However, I saw the ancestral home\'s altar releasing the aura of the Wolf Ancestor, seemingly trying to protect the Wind Wolves. It wasn\'t strong, but it was indeed a divine presence. At that moment, I felt a divine power burst from Asura, which scared off the Wolf Ancestor\'s divinity. Though it wasn\'t the true Wolf Ancestor, just a remnant soul\'s consciousness, instincts don\'t lie."

Mei Gongzi was taken aback. "Are you saying Asura is a god?"

"I don\'t know. It\'s possible, but it doesn’t feel like it, at least from his aura. But the divinity can\'t be faked. It\'s of a very high level indeed. I think that\'s also why he noticed me. I didn\'t follow further; he signaled in my direction when he was leaving, so I stopped for safety.

"Also, the poison he used... I took a bit of the wine, but I couldn\'t detect any poison. Also, I saw those Wind Wolves. They did not react at first, it only began to take effect after some time. And the more they used their bloodline power, the faster the effect. Very powerful. It seems I need to speak with Mayor Zhang. Asura\'s identity is not simple."

"Mom, let\'s not ask," Mei Gongzi suddenly said.

"Hmm?" Su Qin looked at her daughter.

Mei Gongzi said, "I promised to trust him after he helped me kill the wolf demons. I intend to keep my word. Also, I can feel his deep hatred for the demon races, especially just now, when he killed that Wind Wolf Priest; his emotions were off. He\'s human, and we share a common goal, which I think is enough. Whether or not he\'s a god-level being, having him on our side is important. He wears a mask precisely because he doesn\'t want to reveal his identity."

Su Qin said, "But he knows too much about you; I\'m uncomfortable with that."

Mei Gongzi said, "If he had wanted to harm me, he had plenty of occasions. I think it’s fine."
