Since Ji Wen had used him as a shield, Shen Qian, believing that it was only right to retaliate, naturally had to do the same.

Although Zah was indeed injured by him, Shen Qian believed that with Ji Wen's displayed shrewdness, he clearly had a thousand ways to easily resolve this matter. Pushing Shen Qian out was entirely intentional, so Shen Qian naturally dropped his worries.

"let's go."

Shen Qian, too lazy to care about the aftermath, called out to Gao Zhe and turned to leave.

"etc!"

Seeing that the culprit who had exposed him had left so easily, Ji Wen was naturally unwilling and immediately spoke up.

The other human warriors instinctively blocked Shen Qian's path.

"Is there anything else?" Shen Qian asked, raising an eyebrow.

Despite having already displayed terrifying strength, Shen Qian remained calm and composed when stopped, a stark contrast to his disheveled appearance just moments before. Seeing this, Ji Wen's suspicions were further confirmed, and he couldn't help but take a deep look at Shen Qian.

"Why did you do this?" Ji Wen asked, somewhat unwilling. "Since you have such strength, you could have easily dealt with that Zha Li, so why did you do this?"

"What you're thinking is exactly what I'm thinking," Shen Qian said with a shrug.

"you……"

Ji Wen choked, perhaps out of concern for the covetous eyes around him. He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Do you even know what it means to prioritize the greater good? Do you think I'm trying to trick you? If you had just shown a little bit of your strength, I could have given you countless resources to help you conquer all races!"

"I don't need it."

Shen Qian shook his head and said with a faint smile, "Besides... you have no right to make arrangements for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qian disregarded Ji Wen's extremely ugly expression and, under Gao Zhe's protection, squeezed through the crowd and left.

“Brother Ji Wen, let it go. Shen Qian’s ambitions lie elsewhere. He only wants to become a disciple of the gods, and he is not on the same path as us,” Jiang Ming stepped forward to comfort him.

Ji Wen stared at Shen Qian's departing figure for a long time, then looked at the unfathomable eyes on the surrounding steps. After a series of changes in his expression, he finally sighed, "In this battle of ten thousand races, my human race... I'm afraid it's truly in danger."
