So he had no choice but to admit it.
However, judging from the conversation between those two humanoid creatures, it seems the grand elder of this species has been in the so-called 'outside world', so he cannot say much here, especially not to converse with that grand elder, or else he will definitely be found out.

Jia Yan said this to the two young 'humans'.
"Friend, since you're a visitor from far away, we should take good care of you. Why not stay here with us for a couple of days?"
The two young human-like creatures quickly said this to Jia Yan.

"It's said that in a couple of days, our grand elder will be explaining the 'Path'. You might have a chance to listen in. Don't you want to hear it?"
