According to official position, Duan Rong is the direct disciple of the sect elder.
The Mansion Master and the Four Ministers are considered the power center of all Qingzhou. When they meet an Inner Sect Disciple, they still need to pay respects, let alone a direct disciple like Duan Rong.
Zhu Peng stood by Duan Rong's side, watching Zhu Zhengfu and Zhu Cheng kneeling in front of Duan Rong, slightly stunned. Only now did he realize that he had always treated Duan Rong casually, calling him brother, which was really disrespectful!
Zhu Peng immediately slid down to kneel, and called out, "Greetings, my lord!"
Duan Rong looked at Zhu Peng sliding far away in his funny kneeling move, smiled slightly, and said, "This is not our first meeting; no need for formalities."
As he spoke, Duan Rong personally helped Zhu Zhengfu up. How could Zhu Zhengfu dare to let Duan Rong assist him? He immediately stood up.
Zhu Cheng and Zhu Peng saw Zhu Zhengfu stand up and followed suit.
