What exactly is the relationship between the Hundred Crafts Workshop and the Hundred Ripples Garden? No, to be precise, what is the relationship between the Hundred Crafts Workshop and Lady Zhen?

Duan Lang, Dugu Ming, and the others were the first to react. With no time to overthink, they saw the dire straits of Xiongba and his followers. How could they let such a golden opportunity slip by? They immediately incited the spectators to strike while their enemies were vulnerable.

"Sister Lan, is something the matter? I was just sleeping, and my pleasant dream was interrupted halfway through," Mo Mo said with a hint of resentment.

But the good times did not last. Once the Fifth Fleet arrived, Hipper could no longer hold them back.

The zither music faded, and the entire pavilion fell into a heavy silence. Not a single person dared to applaud, as if they feared that even the slightest sound might shatter the lingering mood.

"Look out!" Xuan Nan and the others cried out in alarm. Xuan Nan and Mother Tan both struck out with their palms simultaneously, attempting to intercept the blow and save Zhao Qiansun’s life.

The agony brought on by the exhaustion of true essence was not something that grew easier with repetition. She dared to drag Shi Qingshang—whose cultivation was far superior to her own—into this struggle only because she relied on her own abnormal rate of true essence recovery.

Ling Chuanqing, thrust into this diplomatic crisis, knew nothing of the rules of etiquette. In his eyes, might made right.

He did not reply, though his movements slowed. He pressed his face against her chest, his breathing ragged and heavy, his hunched back rising and falling violently.

After a long time, Wuming seemed to have a realization. He had intended to summon Jian Chen and send him out into the pugilistic world, but then he hesitated. Jian Chen’s worldly experience was still shallow, and his martial arts, mental state, and sword heart were all lacking; it was not yet the right time for him to enter the mortal fray.

Yet, this time was different. Reno kept exhausting his stamina, sprinting through the corridors of Chaldea and even using the "Bird Summoning" magic to conjure dozens of birds, scattering them throughout the facility.

Reno spotted a location halfway up the hillside where fire-attribute magic particles were several times denser than in the surrounding air, and he flew toward it.

As Thor took hold of the hammer in Tang San’s hand, the burden was immediately eased. Unlike the Blue Silver Grass, which consumed no soul power to manifest, summoning the Mjolnir consumed almost all of Tang San’s soul power in a single go!

However, this was the true objective of the city guards; every day, they delivered new incriminating evidence to the city guard headquarters.

Lucian pointed at Dustin, and four werewolves lunged from four different directions. Nick and Sheriff Hope opened fire immediately.

Fahai sprinted madly, employing the art of terrestrial flight, leaping lightly over layers of high towers and halls. Tracking the demonic aura to Lingyin Temple, he saw the temple trembling, with strands of emerald light, like silver silk, overflowing from the doors and windows.

However, his memory had now returned. Ling Yunfeng knew this restoration began the moment he retrieved that crystal jade; it was the jade that had repaired his brain and restored his memories. If an ordinary person had attempted this experiment, success would have been impossible, and the outcome would likely have been the same as that of the previous twelve soldiers.

Number 11 pouted in anger and raised her fist to strike Lin Xiao, but he caught her hand, pulled her toward him with a backhand motion, and lifted her into the air with one arm over the railing, pretending he was about to let go.

With a thought, the black blade flew into his hand. Wu Feng mustered all his strength to raise his arm, wanting to test the hardness of the cave wall, but suddenly he could no longer sense any soul power, and the cave returned to its previous state.

After a night of careful deliberation, Gravelle decided to seek help from the camp leader. The next day, Gravelle and Tony went to the leader’s tent.

Zhou Shumin desperately wanted to roar at Su En: "If you aren't going to eat, why are you asking me that question?"

Yan Yiyi had entrusted her to check on her younger brother, also named Yan Tianyun. She was certain she would recognize him without needing to compare photos, as he looked exactly like the Yan Tianyun from that other world.

Zhao Shufen sat there with Li Qing, showing no signs of being anxious to visit her critically ill mother.

"Student, please return the form in your hand to the classmate," Zhou Shumin said calmly.

Fortunately, the willpower of the Ark people was exceptional; even relying solely on the density of magic, they had produced S-rank powerhouses within just a few generations.

The reason she chose this was not only because she had heard it featured many talented actors but also because Shi Jiaren had read a review.

After writing it down, she seemed to shake her head. Bai Qi was very puzzled by this action; was this gilded statue expressing the helplessness deep within her own heart, or was it a reflection on the past, vanishing into time like the wind?

Wang Zicong also charged forward, killing four or five One-Blade Style assassins with a single move of "Wind Comes to Wushan," but instantly, seven or eight more intercepted him.

"Damn it! Tell the cleaners to spray some extra air freshener here after work today," Chen Shaobei said angrily.

If this "Night Emperor" was truly the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Origin Emperor, why would he be mingling with these bandits?

If he continued at his current rate of growth, after cultivating for hundreds of millions of years, he might even have a chance to manifest a colossal Primordial Saint Halo.

Strangely, the journey was incredibly peaceful. The elder Daoist boy walked at the very front, six halos of light rotating behind his head, constantly drawing closer to the Innate Dragon Scales without encountering any obstacles.

Holding dual swords, clad in white armor, with his plume fluttering, his aura suddenly became peerless and unparalleled.

The small boat and the deck drifted within the nebula, tossed about by the turbulence, continuously circling the nebula's center.

With Chen Yin standing so close, Scott no longer dared to shout with such bravado. Although he knew his backer was powerful, he was equally aware of the terror posed by the silver-haired man before him.

When Fang Lan’s consciousness was not in control, the divine power system operated automatically. At times, Fang Lan even suspected that the God of Xuanming was controlling it from behind the scenes.

This mage tower had two basement levels; the first was a negative energy pool, and the second was a laboratory, which even contained an altar for undead transformation.

The surrounding spectators were completely unaware of what had happened. The youth had merely waved his hand, and the two cultivators stood up and moved to either side, clearing a path without saying a word.

The nearly 200,000 Void monsters were wiped out after only three waves of assault. This left the Void Saint Envoy Kai'Sa, as well as the other two Void commanders who observed the scene through the eyes of frontline soldiers, in a state of utter shock.

However, the pair standing before him did not have very high combat power; as long as he caught them off guard, defeating them would not be difficult.

"Today is a good day. It is the first time we people from Lishui City have gathered so completely; we must have a few good drinks," a high-pitched voice declared.
