Zheng Yi's feigned reluctance is not just out of modesty.
People tend not to truly value things that are too easily acquired.
Moreover, if things go too smoothly, many cultivators will instinctively wonder if there's some kind of conspiracy involved.
It's like the test of breaking glass.
Initially, there might be simple curiosity, but as the experiment progresses, the glass being shattered becomes almost inevitable.
Because the experimenter's goal has shifted from testing whether the glass will break to when it will break.
Therefore, even though Wenn Ziyan and the people from Star Sea have no doubt about him.
Zheng Yi has never intended to harm Star Sea.
Yet, every step he took was with utmost caution and careful consideration.
Ultimately, Zheng Yi agreed with "helplessness" due to Wenn Ziyan and the elders' enthusiastic persuasion.
Both parties achieved their goals, resulting in mutual delight.
