Princess Lily Arrives

Lily and her team had just experienced a fierce battle, finally defeated the man in black, and restored the balance of time and space. They were about to take a breath and continue to study the secret of the orb, when the orb once again emitted a strong light.

"What's going on?" King Donglin looked at Baozhu helplessly.

Suddenly, they felt a strong force sucking them in, and then they felt dizzy and the scene in front of them became blurred. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a completely unfamiliar world.

This is a prosperous modern city with tall buildings and busy streets. Lily looked around and said in surprise: "Where have we traveled to again?"

A young man in fashionable clothes and sunglasses came over and greeted them warmly: "Hi, hello! I am a time traveler of this era, just call me Ajie."

Ajie took them to walk on the street and introduced the situation of this era. It turned out that they came to the 21st century, an era of highly developed technology.

"You actually traveled through time from ancient times, that's amazing!" Ajie exclaimed.

Lily smiled and said, "We were also brought here by the orb. By the way, do you know the secret of the orb?"

Applejack nodded, "Of course I know. The orb is the key to connecting different time and space, but its power is very unstable. We need to find a special energy to fully control it."

"What energy?" King Donglin asked curiously.

"It's something called the 'Core of Time', which is said to be hidden somewhere in this city." Ajie explained.

Lily and her team decided to follow Ajie's guidance to find the core of time. They traveled through the bustling city, passed by high-rise buildings, and crossed the bustling streets, and finally came to an ancient library.

"The clue to the core of time is here." Ajie said, pointing to the library.

They walked into the library and found that the books here were full of ancient atmosphere. Ajie led them to a secret basement where various strange instruments and ancient books were placed.

"These are all research materials about the core of time." Ajie said.

Lily and her team began to look through these ancient books, trying to find clues to the core of time. After some effort, they finally found an ancient manuscript that recorded the location of the core of time.

"It turns out that the core of time is hidden deep underground in this city." Lily said in surprise.

Following the instructions in the manuscript, they came to an abandoned factory in the city. The factory looked dilapidated, but Ajie told them that it was once a secret laboratory.

"The entrance to the laboratory is here." Ajie pointed to a hidden passage on the ground.

They opened the passage and entered the laboratory. The light in the laboratory was dim and full of mystery. Lily and her team moved forward cautiously and found a heavy iron door.

"The core of time is behind this door." said Ajie.

Lily pushed the iron door open with all her strength, and the sight before them amazed them. In the center of the room was suspended a crystal ball emitting dazzling light, and strange energy flowed in the crystal ball. This was the core of time.

"We found it!" Xiaofeng said excitedly.

Just as they were about to take the Time Core, a group of people in black uniforms suddenly appeared, armed with weapons, obviously here to stop Lily and the team.

"You can't take the core of time away!" the leading man in black said coldly.

"It looks like we have to fight again." Prince Donglin said helplessly.

Lily and the team quickly took up a fighting stance, ready to meet the challenge. The battle was fierce and tense, and the power of the men in black should not be underestimated, but Lily and the team relied on their wisdom and courage to finally defeat them.

They successfully took away the core of time, but just as they were about to leave the laboratory, a sudden strong earthquake caused the entire laboratory to begin to collapse.

"Run!" Ajie shouted.

Lily and the team quickly escaped from the lab and came outside. They gasped and finally breathed a sigh of relief as the abandoned factory collapsed into ruins behind them.

"This is really thrilling." King Donglin exclaimed.

Lily looked at the Time Core in her hand and felt the powerful force contained in it. "We must use this power to stabilize the orb so that we can truly control time and space."

Ajie nodded: "Yes, next we need to find a safe place to fuse the energy."

Led by Ajie, they came to a modern laboratory. Ajie skillfully operated the instrument and injected the energy of the core of time into the orb. The orb emitted a dazzling light and gradually stabilized.

"Success!" Ajie said excitedly.

Lily held the stabilized orb and felt an unprecedented power. She knew that this power could not only travel through time and space, but also protect the balance of the world.

"Thank you, Ajie." Lily said gratefully.

"It's okay. It's my honor." Ajie said with a smile, "If you need help, you can always come to me."

Lily and the team took the orb and prepared to return to their own time. However, just as they were about to leave, Ajie suddenly handed Lily a card.

"This is my contact information. If you encounter time and space problems again, you can contact me through this card." Ajie said.

Lily took the card, smiled and said, "Okay, we will definitely meet again."

They used the power of the orb to open a time portal and returned to their own time. Lily looked at the orb in her hand and knew that there would be more adventures waiting for them in the future.

She said firmly: "No matter how difficult the future is, we will face it together. We are the guardians of time and space."

Lily and her team set out on a new journey again, ready to meet more unknown challenges.
