However, just as Ji Tianxing was looking around, a few more rays of green light came from the depths of the palace.
Only then did he see clearly that the three rays of light were finger-sized green sword rays.
The three sword rays were aimed at his left, right, and forehead. They were extremely fast and powerful.
Ji Tianxing's expression changed. He quickly jumped four meters away and jumped into the courtyard from the eaves.
He used all his strength and dodged as fast as he could. Only then did he manage to dodge the three sword rays.
Even so, one sword ray brushed past his shoulder and cut a hole in his robe.
Ji Tianxing jumped into the courtyard. Just as his feet landed on the ground, before he could even stabilize himself, three more green sword rays came at him.
"Swish swish swish!"
He had no choice but to use all his strength to retreat and avoid the sword rays.
"Swish swish swish!"
Just as the three sword rays dissipated, another wave of sword rays came at him. This time, the angle of the attack was even more tricky and the speed was faster.
Ji Tianxing was forced into a corner. He could only jump back and forth in the courtyard and dodge the attacks.
Within a short span of a hundred breaths, he was attacked by more than three hundred sword rays. He did not even have the chance to stop and take a breath.
Finally, after a hundred breaths, there were no more sword rays coming from the depths of the palace.
Ji Tianxing also managed to dodge the attack. He sat on the ground with a pale face and panted heavily.
He was in a sorry state. He was sweating profusely and his messy hair was also wet.
His green robe was not only soaked in sweat, but also had more than ten holes in it. He looked like a beggar.
In the past hundred breaths, he was dancing on the edge of a knife. He had brushed shoulders with death countless times.
There were a few times when he was almost hit by the sword rays and died on the spot.
At this time, a thin figure walked out from the depths of the palace and came to the courtyard.
This figure was Xiang Wuji. Qian Yue flapped his wings and followed closely beside him.
Ji Tianxing saw Xiang Wuji and shouted angrily, "Senior! I have already followed our agreement to clean the palace. Why are you doing this to me?! "
When the hundreds of sword rays came at him, he had already guessed that it was the white-bearded old man who did it!
Of course, Xiang Wuji would not deny it. He stared at Ji Tianxing angrily and scolded him.
"Little bastard, do you think sweeping the floor can offset the crimes you've committed? In your dreams! "
"Last night, your pet, the little fox, stole and ate my precious spirit fruit! There were Cinnabar Fruit, Fire Fruit, Ice Fruit, Dragon Fruit, and Spirit Peach … "
"A total of twenty-eight spirit fruits, all of which are extremely rare and priceless treasures! Bastard, how do you think we should settle this debt? "
Xiang Wuji pointed pointed his finger at Qian Yue say, one by one.
The little ice fox tilted her head and looked at him. She was stunned and had a dull expression on her face.
"Of you, Qian Yue," Qian Qian Yue, Qian Yue, Qian! Qian's Qian, Qian, Qian Yue, Qian, Qian, Qian.....
"Qian Yue, Qian Yue! You've eaten so many precious spirit fruits. I can't pay you back even if I sell my entire fortune! "
Qian Yue came back to its senses. It waved its paws and explained anxiously, "Old Ji! You have to believe me! It's not like that. Listen to me … "
Before it could finish, it was interrupted by Xiang Wuji.
Xiang Wuji glared at Qian Yue and shouted, "What's there to explain? What's there to explain? "
"Little fox, tell me the truth. Did you eat those spirit fruits last night?!"
Qian Yue frowned, its eyes filled with grievance.
After a moment of silence, it nodded and said, "Yes, I ate those spirit fruits, but I …"
"But what? No buts! " Xiang Wuji waved his hand and interrupted it again. Then, he shouted at Ji Tianxing angrily, "Bastard, did you hear that?"
"Little fox has admitted its crime. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me for my loss?!"
"Uh …" Ji Tianxing was in a dilemma. His face was dark and uncertain. Hundreds of thoughts flashed through his mind.
However, the situation was not good. Qian Yue had indeed made a mistake. He could not defend himself.
In the end, he could only suppress the anger in his heart. He cupped his hands and said to Xiang Wuji, "Senior, those spirit fruits are priceless. I can't pay you back even if I sell my entire fortune."
"I can only apologize to you on behalf of Qian Yue. You can punish me however you want!"
Xiang Wuji's eyes flashed with a smile. However, he still shouted angrily, "Humph! At least you know what's good for you! "
"Of course I'm going to punish you. I'm going to punish you severely!"
"Come with me!"
Then, Xiang Wuji put his hands behind his back and left the courtyard with Qian Yue.
Ji Tianxing could only follow and enter the third courtyard of the Great An Palace.
The third courtyard was even more spacious. The courtyard was filled with dust and leaves. There were also weeds that were half the height of a person.
Xiang Wuji stood at the entrance of the courtyard. He pointed to the roof of a row of houses in the west and said, "The herbs that are drying on the roof are all ingredients that I use to refine pills."
"Before the sky turns dark, you have to categorize those dried herbs and put them into the medicine cabinet in the pill room!"
Hearing his words, Ji Tianxing looked towards the west side of the roof.
He saw that the roof of the west side of the row of houses was covered with herbs of different colors.
Countless herbs were spread out on the roof. It was three meters wide and thirty meters long. It looked like a huge multicolored carpet.
Ji Tianxing's expression changed. He looked troubled as he muttered to himself, "There are so many herbs. There must be at least tens of thousands of them?"
"There are still eight hours before the sky turns dark. How can I complete the task?"
Xiang Wuji did not seem to see his expression. He shouted again, "Kid, not only do you have to put the herbs away, you can't make a single mistake!"
"Otherwise, I won't be polite to you!"
After saying this, Xiang Wuji brought Qian Yue into the main hall. He sat in the armchair and drank tea, closing his eyes to rest.
Ji Tianxing smiled bitterly and helplessly. He could only work obediently.
He came to the west side of the courtyard and looked up at the roof. He could not help but frown.
This row of houses was simple and grand. It was wide and tall. The roof was five meters above the ground.
With his strength, he could jump onto the roof in one leap.
But he had to take care of tens of thousands of herbs. If he jumped up and down tens of thousands of times, how could his body take it?
Thus, Ji Tianxing turned to look for a wooden ladder in the room.
Xiang Wuji, who was sitting in the main hall drinking tea, shouted without looking up, "You are a True Energy Realm martial artist. You need to find a ladder to go up to the roof? Don't you feel embarrassed? "
"Also, you don't need to find one. I don't have one in my Great Peace Palace."
Ji Tianxing frowned. He felt even more depressed.
He could only walk back to the west side of the row of houses and jump onto the roof.
But just as he jumped into the air, Xiang Wuji's cold and angry voice came from the main hall.
"Kid, be gentler!"
"If you dare to break a single tile, I will hang you up and beat you!"
Ji Tianxing was in the air. When he heard this, his face turned green with anger.
But he did not dare to lose his temper. If he really broke the glazed tiles on the roof, the stinky old man would definitely flip out.
He could only take a deep breath and infuse his body with True Energy. His body lightly landed on the roof.
As a result, the glazed tiles were completely undamaged.
He had to maintain the circulation of True Energy and walk on the roof like he was using Qing Gong to collect the herbs.
