After returning to the Elixir Sect.
Xu Wendong found Xia Hou immediately and told him about Chen Xi, also mentioning that he had brought Chen Xi back to the mountain.
Xia Hou heard and laughed, "You don't need to worry about this matter. Although the Prime Minister's Mansion controls Qingzhou completely, you are a rare alchemy talent in our Elixir Sect and the entire Nine Provinces. Rest assured, they wouldn't dare act recklessly."
Xia Hou did not deny the influence of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
But even though the Prime Minister's Mansion holds great power, it's limited to Qingzhou.
Xu Wendong, on the other hand, can benefit many cultivators.
Not to mention, Xu Wendong also owns the Golden Crow Furnace.
Whether for public or private reasons, he would resist the Prime Minister's Mansion for Xu Wendong.
