"My lord..."
Gao Zhe followed Shen Qian out of the arena under the watchful eyes of countless people. Gao Zhe was about to ask something, but was stopped by Shen Qian's subtle gaze.
Gao Zhe realized something was wrong and fell silent.
The two walked on in silence until they were far away from the arena. Only then did Shen Qian, who had maintained a nonchalant attitude, seem to breathe a slight sigh of relief, and his expression returned to normal.
"My lord, what's wrong?" Gao Zhe asked, puzzled.
“Just now in the arena, there were several eyes in the sky,” Shen Qian said softly.
Gao Zhe was taken aback, then realized something and exclaimed, "So, the lord wasn't just playing with Ji Wen, but was hiding his true abilities?"
“I guess so,” Shen Qian laughed. “Actually, my acting was very clumsy. Anyone with a little attention would have noticed that I might have some problems. After all, that Zha Li is a strong person above the middle level of the Divine Realm. He even took out his natal weapon, but he couldn’t even touch the hem of my clothes. I have too many flaws.”
"Wouldn't that expose our lord's strength as well?"
Gao Zhe knew that Shen Qian's true combat strength was far greater than this, and he also guessed that Shen Qian was unwilling to confront Na Zha Li head-on in order to avoid exposing his strength. However, if there really was a top god spying on the arena just now, he would have been able to see through Shen Qian's performance.
Chen Qian waved his hand, "It's not that serious. Do you know what the highest level of cover-up is?"
"What?" Gao Zhe asked in surprise.
"Of course it's three parts truth and seven parts falsehood. Hey, the more I lie, the less they'll believe how strong I am. And in the end, I even pushed Ji Wen out."
Shen Qian smiled and said, "Perhaps in the eyes of those gods and those top geniuses, I'm more like a clown trying to attract attention?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Zhe suddenly realized why Chen Qian's actions earlier seemed so exaggerated; it turned out he had already sensed that a top-tier deity was lurking in the shadows.
On this thought, Gao Zhe was suddenly startled.
After all, he had never seen Shen Qian go all out. Although he subconsciously did not think that Shen Qian was weaker than Zha Li, it was only because he had once seriously injured Zha He with a single blow, plus the aura of Shen Qian's status as "Master".
However, the "strength" that Gao Zhe understands is clearly not the same concept as the "strength" that Shen Qian unintentionally displays at this moment.
Because Shen Qian had actually glimpsed a top-tier deity existing in the shadows, something that even Gao Zhe hadn't noticed.
...
The human camp was eventually changed.
Although the human race has been suppressed in secret, in this era that values strength above all else, Jiwen, who crippled Zhali in one move, still managed to earn the respect that the human race deserved.
The human camp was moved from its original remote location to the edge of the inner perimeter. Further in were the top 100 major races among all races.
Correspondingly, Shen Qian lost the opportunity to continue living with the Yan Clan royal family. He simply found a corner in the human camp and set up camp with Gao Zhe and Yue Jun.
News of what happened in the arena quickly spread throughout the human camp. Countless human geniuses, while marveling at Ji Wen's terrifying strength, also remembered the name "Chen Qian".
Everyone is not stupid. Ji Wen's painstaking efforts to hide his strength show that he must have a bigger plan.
Shen Qian undoubtedly became the "traitor to humanity" who ruined Ji Wen's plans because of his cowardice and fear of death.
Shen Qian was surprised to find that the corner he had been looking for, which was originally crowded, had become empty before sunset. At least within a hundred meters, no one was willing to be next to Shen Qian, making it more comfortable and quiet than the camps of the five major tribes.
As for the occasional whispers and disdainful glances from passersby, they naturally had no effect on Chen Qian.
Wu Ling, however, seemed unconcerned about Shen Qian's actions and continued to come over from time to time, causing countless young talents of the human race to sigh in despair.
The Ninth Princess of the You Clan was good in every way, but unfortunately she was blind.
Gao Zhe also made a quick trip out of the camp during this time, but he still managed to return before sunset.
Having just seen Wu Ling off, Shen Qian, who was resting with his eyes closed in his tent, suddenly opened his eyes and saw Gao Zhe's travel-worn figure. A hint of anticipation appeared on his face.
"how?"
Gao Zhe first set up an isolation array around the tent before nodding, "My lord, I have not failed you."
As he spoke, Gao Zhe took out a white river snail from his pocket and handed it to Chen Qian.
Time Conch!
Shen Qian carefully took the river snail, a satisfied look on his face.
Aside from Gao Zhe, the Gao family has eight other messengers of the Time River Conch. They were summoned and have already arrived near the battlefield of ten thousand races, ready to serve at any time. Gao Zhe went out today to meet these eight people.
Gathering these eight people to the battlefield of myriad races was merely a preparatory strategy before he sank in, in case he failed to find his way back from the battlefield of myriad races, so that he would have a means to deal with the unexpected.
Not to mention, he has offended the Xuanyuan Clan and the Yan Clan, two of the five major clans.
But that's not enough.
Shen Qian was ultimately a cautious person. After realizing that the top geniuses of the myriad races were far stronger than he had expected, Shen Qian prepared another trump card for himself, which was...
The Time River Conch in my hand right now.
However, Shen Qian did not want to have the opportunity to use it, even though he was in his prime, losing a thousand years of lifespan was no joke.
The "Ten Directions Creation Body" is an extremely powerful trump card, but it also has its flaws. It is about the same as the "Time River Conch". However, with two trump cards in hand that are enough to turn the tide, Chen Qian will be more confident in stepping into the unknown battlefield of all races.
