Baili He hid in the dense forest.
His assistant was right beside him.
A scout who had gone to gather information ran back and said, "They plan to smoke out the Moon Beast with pepper and black smoke."
The assistant smiled and said, "That's exactly what we're hoping they'd do. If they were to enter the cave to capture it, we wouldn't know what to do. Whether to go in or not was a dilemma, but now we don't have to consider that at all."
The subordinate nodded and said, "Then we'll stick to the original plan."
"Of course, everything as planned. When the time is right, we'll release the monster and then the Winged Dragon. We'll open a gap from the east side to lure out the Moon Beast. After the Moon Beast escapes, we'll cover its retreat. I estimate one hour should suffice. By then, it should be able to head towards the sea. Those youngsters from the Sacred Spirit Sect won't be able to catch up. We can then retreat."
