Turmoil roiled within Chu Mu's heart, various questions swirling in his mind that refused to settle.
Even though Chu Mu had no idea why the defecting girl had painstakingly made her way to the human world, and he was still in the dark about her origins, he felt there must be more objectives that she wanted to achieve. It made no sense for her to purposely plunge herself into the disputes of different factions and manipulate everything from the shadows.
The power struggle amongst factions was often orchestrated by individuals wielding great authority. For the sake of gaining an even higher status or more power for themselves, they would rack their brains to acquire certain things, using all manner of underhanded tactics.
As for the defecting girl, she was a humanoid soul pet. She should not be involved in disputes between factions; however, according to Lord Yu's words, she was the person instigating the conflict between the Elemental Gate and Soul Hall.
