"We've heard that Chief Luo is recruiting heroes from all walks of life. We wonder if we might be fortunate enough to join your esteemed organization?"
Loxi smiled broadly: "Of course you're welcome, otherwise I wouldn't have spread that kind of news."
"Gu Heizi, take a few people to the main hall first, we'll talk there."
