After handing over the head of Young Master Meng to these Beef Avoidance Sect members, Hu Ma didn't immediately discuss anything with them, even though both parties indeed had many questions.
But he was truly exhausted.
So, he first let these people return, while he went to retrieve the Yin General. Along the way, surveying the mountain ridge, he found Master Ma, dejected, hesitating before a cliff of moderate height. Gently, Hu Ma persuaded,
"You won't die from a fall..."
"..."
Master Ma's large eyes widened at these words, and he glared at Hu Ma, full of resentment.
What could Hu Ma do? He had to gently reassure it, promising that the next time they encountered danger, he absolutely would not rescue it. Only then did he manage to coax it back. He then circled the town, retrieving the items he had hidden around for setting up the altar, either collecting them or burning them.
No evidence could be left behind.
