Chapter 3703: 4.1303 Ultimatum

The little poker face glared at him, then looked away, immediately changing the subject. "How much longer until we arrive?"

"We'll be there a quarter of an hour after leaving the city," Mo Lian said with a smile. "Qiao Qiao..."

Qiao Mu suddenly reached out and covered his mouth, pointing to the roof of the carriage, signaling him to listen. Mo Lian paused for a moment, then in a flash, heard the distinct sound of wings flapping.

He pulled down the curtain beside him and saw a mechanical bird fly in from outside. It flapped its wings a few times before folding them, landing mechanically on a small table where a tea tray was placed.

They exchanged glances, both recognizing it as a messenger bird used by the academy.

"Hello, students Mo Lian and Qiao Mu." The messenger bird's beak opened and closed, emitting Dean Yun's voice. "Given that you two have been wandering for quite some time, I find it necessary to remind you. This year's Heavenly Yuan Ranking Competition is about to begin."

"The preliminaries are set to start on the eighteenth of this month."

"The preliminary period will be ten days, and the content will be announced on the day of the preliminaries."

"To prevent you two from missing the competition, I, your dean, with my divine foresight, have deduced your locations, and so on..."

After a string of rambling nonsense, Qiao Mu looked at the frowning Mo Lian, pursed her lips, and was just about to punch the noisy mechanical bird out the window. That's when Yun Piaomiao finally got to the point.

"The Royal Academy has given everyone a three-day deadline."

"Within three days, you two must immediately return to the academy, or you will be expelled."

"Furthermore, Mo Lian, Duan Yue, Ming Yas, and some others, your contribution points are now all in the negatives! Qiao Mu, your contribution points are also close to zero!"

"The Royal Academy's rule is that anyone with zero contribution points must go alone to the Northern Lookout Great Forest and stay there for a month."

"Of course! Those with negative points must roll there even faster!" Dean Yun's roar came from inside the mechanical bird's belly.

The little poker face and Crown Prince Mo silently exchanged glances again, both pouting. As a dean, was it truly okay to be so undignified?

Dean Yun caught his breath, then said in a deep voice, "Three-day deadline, I want to see you all back within three days!"

"The academy hasn't been peaceful lately! You should know that!!"

"My Misty Peak has received three waves of people with heavenly fate! You two brought all this upon me!!"

"Immediately, right now, come back within three days!"

The mechanical bird abruptly stopped after saying this.

Lord Qiao Qiao exchanged another glance with Crown Prince Mo, then snorted dismissively. "What a character!"

So what if she brought him some enemies? Doesn't that just prove how capable and powerful he is! If he were just an ordinary person, Lord Qiao Qiao wouldn't bother bringing trouble his way.

If Dean Yun could hear Lord Qiao Qiao's thoughts at that moment, he would surely spit in her face and say, "Thank your ancestors for eighteen generations!"

"The academy probably isn't very peaceful these days," Mo Lian said with a light cough. "Otherwise, the dean wouldn't be so undignified."

"Never mind. Since the Heavenly Yuan Ranking Competition is about to begin, let's set off the day after tomorrow."

Qiao Mu rolled her eyes. "Go back the day after tomorrow?"

"Yes, Qiao Qiao has teleportation arrays, so there's enough time!" Mo Lian nodded with a smile. "We can also make a quick trip back to my sect on the way."

"Once we're back at the academy, we'll have to be separated, Qiao Qiao," Mo Lian said, holding her pitifully.

Don't rush, the surprise is next week...
