The Wood Virtue Star Lord is not someone who is oblivious to the current situation, unable to distinguish between advantages and disadvantages, or greedy enough to want to grasp everything in his hands. The instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm from years of being an independent practitioner has already been imprinted in his bones.
Even though he knows that what he currently holds is crucial to the future and holds great benefits, he understands better that the greater the benefits, the greater the danger. Since he can no longer control it, he naturally has to give it up.
No one can have it all; previously, when threats hadn't appeared, he could act low-key. Now that he has drawn attention, wanting something for nothing is mere self-deception.
