My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!
chapter-1572

By dusk, the group of people had arrived at Julu City's city gate.

This city was extremely grand. The city walls were built by piling huge buff-colored stones, and just the city gate itself was several dozen feet tall.

Standing at the bottom of the city gate made humans seem extremely tiny.

When Qiao Mu and Bai Xia arrived at Julu City's city gate, they just so happened to encounter crowd control.

Everyone was standing in line outside the city gate while two rows of spirited guards stood erect with puffed-out chests and spears in their hands. This display seemed like they were waiting for some big shot to pass through.

Bai Xia couldn't help being curious, and she stopped a bystander with an inquisitive whisper, "This sister, let me ask you something. What is everyone doing here? How come we've been stopped at the city gate."

"From how you're all covered in dust, you've just come from afar and are hurrying into the city, right." That middle-aged woman whom Bai Xia had addressed as "sister" smiled back widely as she answered, "It normally wouldn't be like this. But I heard that Passionless Palace's Fairy Liren will be visiting today. City Lord Hua will be welcoming her personally, so they are not allowing us through for the time being. Once Fairy Liren and her entourage have passed through, it'll be fine."

"Liren?" A female voice came from behind Bai Xia.

It was a round-faced girl who had been a fellow terrestrial whale passenger. Her age was similar to Qiao Mu's, and she had round and plump cheeks. Her figure was also slightly on the rounder side.

At this time, this girl was biting her fingers and drooling with a weird expression.

Qiao Mu looked back at her. From her foodie instincts, she immediately understood that this round-faced girl meant "chestnut" and not "beauty" when she said Liren.

"Hey, make some room. Excuse me, excuse me." The short mentor squeezed through the crowd with his sooty face. Finally, he got to where Qiao Mu and the others were standing with great difficulty.

Bai Zhe cast him a glance before grumpily blocking him with his arm. "What are you shoving for."

"Hey, young man. Watch your attitude!" The short mentor glared at Bai Zhe. Afterwards, he peered around at the city gate. "How come they've stopped everyone here? Why aren't they letting people inside!"

No one paid him any attention!

However, the fourth princess Liu Tiantian who had given him five hundred spirit currency earlier to buy a seat was seething in anger. She gave the mentor a death glare and shouted, "You still dare to show up in front of me?"

When the short mentor looked back at her, his entire face was black!

"Hey, why wouldn't I dare show up in front of you! Little Miss, speak more politely!"

"You liar!" Liu Tiantian was so agitated from anger that she wanted to immediately rush over and pummel him.

However, everyone was all squished together right now. Her vigorous movements immediately jostled a lot of people in the surroundings.

Some people who were getting so squished that they couldn't breathe hastily hollered, "What are you doing? Stop shoving!"

The short mentor shielded his arms in front of himself in a defensive posture. When he saw that Liu Tiantian wasn't able to squeeze her way over, he immediately cracked a grin. "Come over! Come over if you have the guts! You're simply audacious being so rude to a mentor. If someone like you joined our Apex Academy, you would definitely get kicked out in less than three days!"

"Who the f*ck wants to join your lousy academy!" Liu Tiantian berated furiously, "Instead of joining your nameless academy, I might as well work hard and strive to join one of the four great sun, moon, star, and celestial academies!"

Everyone who heard this was on Liu Tiantian's side, giving a nod as they swept that short mentor a disdainful look.

"A bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well! What the dickens do you know."
