Li Rui learned that a tribe of Deer Demons came to surrender, and immediately let out a cold laugh.
I haven't even attacked, and you're coming to surrender? Probably not sincere, huh.
But he didn't say anything; instead, he forced a smile and eagerly ran out of the camp gates to greet them.
"Oh my, King of Deer is so wise and righteous, willing to join us in our cause, I am deeply grateful."
Yuan Erliang dutifully translated with squeaks.
Zhang Yuan stated evasively, "The king wishes to act on behalf of heaven; we are extremely impressed."
"No, no, please."
Li Rui first instructed someone to take him to a resting place, then called for Yuan Ju.
"Take him to settle down among the masses and observe secretly; he likely isn't sincere in his surrender, don't give them any opportunity."
Yuan Ju nodded and went to carry out his orders.
