The Sect Master, the Strategist, and the Young Sect Master were truly persistent!
They waited stubbornly!
The entire Cleaver Sect was on fire.
And they were still waiting.
The Young Sect Master began coughing. "Something's wrong. Why is there so much smoke?"
The Strategist was puzzled too. Why had they not made their move yet? It sounded like utter chaos outside. Weren't they supposed to come steal the Luminous Pearl?
The Strategist opened the door and took a look. Good grief—the hallway was full of smoke!
Someone hurried past carrying a chair, and the Strategist grabbed him. "What's going on!?"
The man panted. "Fire! The whole place is burning! The Cleaver Sect is on fire from all sides, there's fire everywhere! Run! It can't be saved!"
The Strategist was dumbfounded. He immediately slapped the man across the face. "You motherfucker! Why didn't you report this sooner!?"
The man covered his face. "Y-you told us not to report anything! You said if we reported again, you'd gouge our eyes out..."
The Strategist closed his eyes, then slapped him again, sending him flying more than three meters away.
The Sect Master rushed out. The moment he saw the billowing smoke and heard the entire Cleaver Sect in an uproar, he looked around and knew they had fallen for it!
They had said they would set a fire to draw attention away, then steal the Luminous Pearl. But they... weren't stealing the Luminous Pearl. They were just setting fires!
The Sect Master roared, "Ahhh! Old Scoundrel, I'll tear you to pieces! Capture Xiao Zhao alive!"
The Sect Master charged out with his blade, leaping into the air as he held up his phone. "Hello! Didn't I tell you people to keep watch!? My Cleaver Sect is on fire! Is this how you do
