If you didn't want to become the target of the public, then you needed to shy away temporarily.
To shy away didn't mean to hide into a corner in the middle of nowhere. Lu Li was commanding high up in the sky and found a club that wanted to stay away from the fighting.
This club had already been encircled and suppressed by the people led by Lu Li. Now, there were only 40 or so people left. They planned to hide until the other clubs were done with fighting, then take over again.
As for going to sneakily destroy the Stronghold tablet, that was looking for death.
The tablet required at least 5 minutes to break through, and an announcement would be made if it was attacked. Once it got to that time, they would become a target of the public.
These 40 or so people were rather careless. They didn't realize that they were being hunted down.
Lu Li didn't need to participate in the ensuing fight.
