Chapter 553: The Hall Master Arrives

At the southern gate of Xuan City, the members of the Pill Alliance, lead by Elder Chen Yongnian, and the Xuan Country royalty, headed by the Co-King, had been waiting for quite some time.

Given the status of Elder Chen and the Co-King, there were only a few people in the entire Xuan Country who could have them both coming out of the city to welcome in unison.

That's because this time, a Hall Master of the Pill Alliance would be coming.

A Hall Master is a person with real power in the upper echelons of the Pill Alliance. If the Pill Alliance is viewed as a large country, then a Hall Master is analogous to a high-ranking official vested with real power.

The arrival of a Hall Master in Xuan City is an extremely solemn occasion. The Xuan Country Royal Family had to show a gesture, so the Emperor of the Xuan Country sent the Co-King to represent him in greeting the Hall Master of the Pill Alliance.
