'But... why would he... still want me to fulfill the contract...'
Chu Mu took out the mass of Bloodline Essence, a hint of doubt in his eyes as he gazed at it.
The Residual Soul had seized the Demon Body and was already living a new life.
With its current cultivation, returning to its bloodline clan should have been a simple matter. Why would it need him to make the trip, taking such a redundant step?
'Is it because it doesn't dare to go back, or is there another reason?'
Chu Mu guessed silently. He had already inspected this mass of Bloodline Essence multiple times. To prevent a repeat of what happened before, he had even used his Great Sun True Flame to repeatedly refine the Bloodline Essence, inside and out.
It was purely a normal mass of Bloodline Essence, with no other abnormalities.
He toyed with the mass of Bloodline Essence in his hand, lost in thought.
