Although at first the five of them were forced to become Shangguan Xiu's subordinates, and they initially felt very uncomfortable about it.
However, after being under Shangguan Xiu's leadership for some time, apart from the three months they were imprisoned, Shangguan Xiu didn't really harm them. In fact, under Shangguan Xiu's guidance, the five of them felt that after being trained by him several times, their own abilities were getting better and better, much better than when they used to stay in the castle researching all the time.
So, they have come to like and get used to the feeling of having someone leading them, especially if the leader is Shangguan Xiu; they are willing to listen to Shangguan Xiu's instructions.
That's why Boss Ke and the other five quite enjoy being led by Shangguan Xiu.
Although they haven't said it clearly, deep down they see Shangguan Xiu as their true master.
