The man from the beams of Linhai Square Market never expected to bump into these three people—Ji Buseng, Feng Jun, and Yan Yuxi.
Even if he hadn't bumped into them, someone else might have, but if they insisted he had ruined their plan, he had to admit it.
As for exposing a secret... it's unlikely to be false; otherwise, with their status, who wouldn't have their place to stay? The fact that they're staying in a shack clearly shows they want to keep a low profile.
So, the man agreed to keep the secret for three days, only asking not to incur their wrath.
Meanwhile, Yan Yufeng stayed behind with a dozen Pine Cypress Peak disciples to serve as a shield for the three—much like Ji Buseng had in the past.
Master Yan released two abodes, one for himself and the male disciples, and another for Yan Yuxi and the female disciples.
He also wanted to invite Feng Jun and Ji Buseng to stay, but both declined and decided to remain in the shack.
