If someone says Li Rui's style of action resembles that of a true boss, they're not wrong.
But he differs from real villains in one aspect: he never overestimates himself.
Before entering the Jade Forest, he captured the advisor assisting Leopard Jie and inquired about Hui You's combat style, learning that this demon transformed from a snake was indeed cunning.
Therefore, before the battle commenced, he devised a strategy in advance.
"Brother Lang, you two lead the Demon Race troops to charge the formation and engage Hui You's forces head-on. He and the Blowgun Guard are mine to handle."
Upon hearing this plan, Li Bailang naturally questioned, as per protocol: "Isn't this too risky? The boss has his guard; it's tough for you to handle alone."
Li Rui confidently replied, "Don't worry, I have it under control."
