Ch. 523Asura God's True Face
Dai Yao met Huang Quan, the woman who had inherited the Asura Godhood, and learned how Black Lotus had led to her birth and ascension. He warned her that he might soon fight the gods and asked her not to harm his loved ones, while resolving to change the Divine Realm’s reliance on spirit beasts for Spirit Rings.
- Dai Yao returned to Slaughter City, where the masked Slaughter King appeared and led him to the castle terrace.
- Huang Quan revealed her face, shared Bloody Mary with Dai Yao, and told him her name despite being unable to speak clearly.
- Huang Quan showed Dai Yao memories of her birth from Black Lotus and Asura energy, her upbringing in Hell Capital, and her completion of the Asura Nine Trials.
- Dai Yao told Huang Quan that he might face the gods and asked her not to attack his loved ones, but she did not understand the conflict well enough to promise.
- Dai Yao considered his plan to let humans advance without killing spirit beasts for Spirit Rings and accepted that this could bring him into conflict with the Divine Realm.
