And in reality, the intentions of those living beings were no secret to anyone; neither Zhou Tian nor the abandoned creature were unaware of this. It was just that based on their respective positions, they had different thoughts at the time.

The creature that had been abandoned was unwilling to be the sacrificial lamb, hence it had tried to flee at that moment. Unfortunately, in the end, it failed to escape and, despite abandoning its mission, it still perished at the hands of Zhou Tian.

As for Zhou Tian, he was well aware of his opponents' scheme. However, Zhou Tian believed that even if his clones couldn't repel the living beings, they would have no problem defending themselves. In that case, since these beings were aiming to stall him, and he was confident in his clones, he might as well play along and ultimately devour the "bait" they had thrown at him.
