Ou Peng laughed proudly in response to Rainier Waters's remark, saying, "Why couldn't it be?"
Faced with such an excellent offer, how could Rainier Waters possibly refuse it? He immediately knelt down, uttering, "Rainier Waters greets Gang Master Ou."
Once he had knelt, Ou Peng stood up and assisted Rainier Waters to his feet. He spoke loudly, "There's no need for such formalities, Brother Shui. Since you've joined the Piaomiao Sect, you're one of us now. Please, rise quickly."
The others, witnessing the scene, started to congratulate them warmly.
Following that, Rainier Waters went through the formalities of meeting every individual member.
Once all the pleasantries had been exchanged, Ou Peng ordered his members to bring a few more chairs, after which everyone took a seat.
With a smile, Ou Peng asked Rainier Waters, "I wonder, Brother Shui, are you curious as to why I appointed you to rule over Luoshui instead of replacing you with someone else?"
