After Han Qiaosheng announced the tasks for this month, he took Du Wu and left the hall.
The disciples discussed in the hall for a while before leaving one after another.
After Ji Tianxing left the main hall, he left Fengyun Court and went to Tai'an Palace.
Although the one-month period has ended, he was able to win first place in the alchemy assessment thanks to Xiang Wuji's guidance.
No matter what, he had to go to Tai'an Palace and thank Xiang Wuji in person.
Half an hour later, he arrived at the gate of Tai'an Palace.
The mute sword slave saw him coming, nodded to him, and forced a smile.
Ji Tianxing returned the favor and quickly entered the third courtyard of Tai'an Palace.
Xiang Wuji recently cultivated a nursery and replanted more than a dozen Bihuncao and other elixirs.
He was carrying a white jade kettle, watering the herbs in the nursery, humming a tune, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Hearing Ji Tianxing's footsteps, he continued to water the water without looking back, and said in a teasing tone: "Haha, you bastard boy hasn't been to Tai'an Palace for three days, why are you here today?"
"I thought you were too scared to come and didn't want to come and sweep the floor for me!"
Ji Tianxing walked to his side, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile: "Senior, I am fortunate to have received your guidance in making alchemy, and won the first place in the end-of-month assessment three days ago."
"In the past three days, I have been practicing in seclusion, so I have not been able to come to visit my senior. Today I came here to thank my senior in person!"
Xiang Wuji raised his eyebrows, and a teasing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"You know how to thank me, I think you still have some conscience."
"But, are your so-called thanks just words? Don't you think you should express your gratitude?"
"To express?" Of course Ji Tianxing understood what he meant, and he was immediately troubled, with a wry smile on his face.
"Senior, I don't have much in my body, and nothing can catch your eye..."
"Ah!" Xiang Wuji glared at him angrily and scolded with a smile: "Who do you think I am? I have never seen anything in the world, how can I ask for a gift from a junior like you?"
After a pause, he looked like he hated iron and said with a straight face: "Since you are an ignorant idiot, I will make it clear!"
"If you want to thank me, you have to take practical actions. From now on, you are my boy, and you will be responsible for cleaning this Tai'an Palace!"
"Ah?" Ji Tianxing was stunned for a moment, as depressed as a bitter gourd.
"Sweeping boy? This is too...Senior, if not, I will sweep the floor for you for another month?"
Xiang Wuji curled his lips and said with a sly smile: "Don't you think it sounds bad to be a sweeper? That's fine, you can be a handyman in Tai'an Palace."
"Head boy?" Ji Tianxing waved his hands repeatedly, somewhat dumbfounded, "Then I'd better just be a boy. Anyway, I can see that you are relying on me."
Xiang Wuji snorted angrily: "Huh! You kid is so good at taking advantage of me. How many disciples are crying and begging to come to Tai'an Palace to sweep the floor, and I'm still not happy!"
"You are now a boy in Tai'an Palace. I don't know how many disciples will envy you when you go out!"
Ji Tianxing expressed doubts about his words and murmured in a low voice: "If that's the case, then why is there not a single boy in Tai'an Palace? No one has cleaned it for several years, and there are weeds growing everywhere..."
Xiang Wuji choked and said angrily: "You know nothing, my Tai'an Palace is covered with a Qingling Formation. Those weeds can benefit from it and can grow to the height of a person in ten days!"
Of course Ji Tianxing knew that the old man was bragging, but he did not expose him, so as not to make the old man anxious, and he would be the unlucky one in the end.
Seeing that he was silent, Xiang Wuji calmed down, put away the white jade kettle, turned around and walked towards the lobby.
"Boy, come here with me."
Ji Tianxing didn't know what he was going to do, so he could only follow him into the lobby.
A sandalwood table in the lobby is filled with various spiritual fruits and elixirs.
Qianyue and Little Black Dragon were lying on the table, eating spiritual fruits and pills slowly, looking comfortable and enjoying themselves.
Seeing Ji Tianxing coming, Qianyue's figure flew to his shoulder in a flash, and said excitedly: "Old Ji, are you okay? That's great!"
The little black dragon also quickly swallowed the spiritual fruit in his mouth, flew to him and said hello, "Old Ji, you're fine."
Ji Tianxing could see that their strength had increased a lot and they were in excellent mental condition.
He couldn't help but smile and asked: "How did you know something happened to me?"
Qianyue raised her little head and said proudly: "I have the best information, you can't hide anything from me!"
Ji Tianxing stretched out his finger and flicked its little head, and said angrily: "Then I was imprisoned in the Batu Caves before, why didn't you visit me? And didn't you give me some food?"
"You two heartless guys are enjoying themselves comfortably in Tai'an Palace, but you are watching me suffer in Batu Caves!"
The little black dragon suddenly stopped talking, turned into a black dragon sword with a swish, and got back into the scabbard hanging on the wall.
Qian Yue rolled her eyes and immediately pointed at Xiang Wuji and said, "Old Ji, it's not that I don't want to visit you, it's that the old man won't let us leave Tai'an Palace."
Of course Ji Tianxing did not dare to cause trouble to Xiang Wuji, so he could only end the topic.
Xiang Wuji reached out and grabbed the black dragon sword on the wall. He then held Qian Yue's tail and handed them both to Ji Tianxing.
"Boy, these two pet beasts of yours are both foodies. They ate thousands of spiritual fruits and elixirs from me last month. Take them away quickly, I won't keep them anymore!"
Ji Tianxing was stunned for a moment and thought to himself: "The smelly old man has a noble status and strong strength. He owns countless rare treasures. How can he not be able to support Qianyue and the little black dragon?"
"Is he just looking for an excuse to return Qianyue and Little Black Dragon to me? However, Qianyue and Little Black Dragon are following me, and I don't have that many spiritual fruits for them to eat."
"It's better to let them stay in Tai'an Palace. At least they can regain their strength quickly."
Thinking of this, he pretended to be confused and asked: "Senior, is this inappropriate?"
"Qianyue and Little Black Dragon are following me. If they are discovered by others in the sect, I will have violated the sect's rules and will be punished, and they will also be expelled from the sect!"
Xiang Wuji glared at him angrily and cursed angrily: "You kid, stop pretending to me! Don't you just want to foster them here and borrow my treasure to help them regain their strength?"
"Take them away quickly. You are from my Tai'an Palace. With me protecting you, no one in the sect dares to cause trouble for you!"
Ji Tianxing blinked and thought to himself: "Why did the smelly old man suddenly become my patron?"
