### Chapter 161: Superb Acting Skills, White Fu the Protagonist and Void War Princess’s Cuddle-up [6K]

With one slash, the Void War Princess cut down the high-ranking executive’s spaceship from Singularity Company. Both in terms of the impact brought by her victory and the dazzling effect of her skill, her entrance was undoubtedly stunning.

One could tell from the density of the deranged comments on the excavation girl’s live stream.

– **[Let me introduce everyone, this is my new wife.]**

– **[Damn, how powerful is this attack? Can she destroy a city with just one slash?]**

– **[This slash might not be enough, but judging from her casual look, her true power must be capable of destroying a city.]**

– **[Then let’s forget it, I can’t handle it. Our FuFu is better; one punch from her shouldn’t kill me, right?]**

The arguments continued until the Void War Princess retracted her ten-meter-long broadsword and landed gracefully. As the fiery aura gradually faded, her true appearance finally revealed itself.

While her features were not as delicate as White Fu’s, she had an air of allure, especially her tear-shaped mole beneath her right eye, adding a touch of charm. Her long hair, transitioning from pink to red, swayed like flickering flames. She wore an outfit predominantly black, white, and dark red, with the hem resembling the feathers of a phoenix, shimmering brilliantly. Her bare feet stepped on the cold stone floor, her legs straight and slender, as if sculpted by a master, earning admiration even from pedicurists.

Under the night curtain, she stood simply, like a burning flame, scorching and blinding, impossible to look at directly yet hard to look away from.

However, if there was something off about her, it was that White Fu felt cheated!

No, this woman, you transformed, why did you lose your chest? Could it be because the rain stopped, and the big thunder disappeared?

– **[Damn, cyber fraud!]**

– **[It’s okay, at least it has some curves, unlike FuFu who is so prominent.]**

Players watched happily, while the NPCs present had no time to appreciate the Void War Princess’s beauty.

Why was the Void War Princess here?

Just dealing with Singularity Company could have been resolved with a single descending slash. There was no need for such a dramatic transformation.

“Could it be that Star Treaty is planning a major action?”

“If Star Treaty wants to attack the Sea Lion Galaxy System, only those top-tier civilizations can stop them.”

Everyone felt uneasy.

A player standing nearby humbly asked, “What is Star Treaty?”

The NPC looked at him as if he were a fool, “Wow, how did you grow up without knowing what Star Treaty is?”

Despite his sarcasm, he still explained.

Star Treaty was rooted in the Edge World, having considerable influence within the direct jurisdiction of the three cosmic-level civilizations. This was due to the fact that the Overlord of Star Treaty had transcended human limitations and was one of only three Ultra-Class superpower users in the Edge World.

Even an S+ level Void War Princess was formidable, but between her and the Ultra-Class were two tiers—Catastrophe and Overlord—making the Ultra-Class incredibly fearsome.

Ultra-Class powerhouses were at the forefront of individual evolution, explorers of life evolution, and seekers of the source of power. Even if a cosmic-level civilization sent a main fleet, it would struggle to deal with them. They were the true elites of the universe, whose small actions could trigger massive interstellar storms far away.

The players were stunned by these words.

So impressive?

After their initial shock, they couldn’t help but worry. Would FuFu be in trouble?

The pressure was also intense for Wei Ke and Mountain Opener.

Wei Ke never imagined he would someday be enemies with an S+ level superpower user from Star Treaty. But now, he could only firmly support White Fu, as he was not someone who betrayed kindness.

Mountain Opener was even more bewildered.

How did a commission end up with the Void War Princess?

He didn’t know what to do. He had to settle the commission fee, or he feared he might be killed. But going to pay the fee was also dangerous. He could only stand there, praying he wouldn’t be involved in the fight.

After a moment, the Void War Princess spoke, “I don’t think I’m wrong, you must be Silver Moon, the famous figure on the chaotic star road recently.”

White Fu wasn’t particularly anxious; she and the Void War Princess weren’t enemies. The fact that the Void War Princess hadn’t immediately attacked after landing meant she wasn’t looking for a fight.

“You came specifically to talk to me, not to chat, right?”

The Void War Princess pointed to a dark, unoccupied area, “Let’s go over there to talk.”

“Okay.”

White Fu nodded and was about to follow when the voice of the excavation girl rang out.

“FuFu, don’t go!”

“Don’t worry, nothing will happen.”

As White Fu walked away, not only the players on-site but also those watching on the live stream were in chaos.

– **[Awesome, I love watching women fight!]**

– **[Stop it, FuFu, please don’t get hurt. If FuFu dies, I’ll explode with the world!]**

– **[On Source Star, FuFu won’t be in danger because she’s the protagonist. But in Star Ocean, we’ll see.]**

– **[Goodbye, FuFu!]**

Besides the Fu Sect players and those seeking entertainment, a large group of players who disliked White Fu also flooded into the live stream.

Void War Princess?

Great, great, let’s crush White Fu. As long as you crush White Fu, we’ll all become your fans!

A few seconds later, White Fu followed the Void War Princess to a place away from the crowd.

The Void War Princess remained calm, “I won’t beat around the bush. I came here to discuss your subordinates. Their courage is rare, and I admire them. I think they shouldn’t be treated as expendable resources, doing meaningless things like colliding ships. How about a trade? If you persuade them to join Star Treaty, I can give you a lot of money.”

“Alright, I knew you had ulterior motives. It’s about making me stronger!”

Just as White Fu was urgently thinking of a response, Green Mud suddenly emerged from a nearby sewer.

“Boss, you’re getting your old habits back.”

His gaze was filled with resentment, and seeing him, the Void War Princess suddenly felt guilty, “What old habits? I think this is a win-win situation. She gets money, her subordinates get a broader stage to shine, and I get brave and loyal followers.”

Green Mud didn’t comment but turned to face White Fu, “Boss appreciates courageous people. Your subordinates are special, not only brave but also extremely loyal. That’s why she wants to recruit them. But don’t worry, Boss isn’t the type to bully others…”

He explained while giving an example.

Not long ago, one of the Void War Princess’s subordinates went missing. After investigation, she found out that the subordinate was captured by Singularity Company. Initially, she planned to demand the person be released directly, but she feared Singularity Company wouldn’t admit it.

Her reputation didn’t matter much, but she didn’t want others to have a bad impression of Star Treaty because of her.

So, she abandoned the idea of directly confronting Singularity Company and instead disguised herself as a hunter, planning to infiltrate Singularity Company personally, find the person, and then confront the company.

“Miss Silver Moon, Boss’s attitude isn’t good. Let me apologize on her behalf. As for the trade she proposed, you can consider it. Even if you refuse, Boss won’t hold a grudge. She isn’t that kind of person.”

As Green Mud spoke, the Void War Princess frowned, seemingly displeased, but after a long pause, she muttered, “Green Mud is right.”

White Fu’s eyes twitched slightly.

She felt this Void War Princess was somewhat naive, perhaps like an Oscar winner candidate?

Regardless of whether the Void War Princess and Green Mud were acting, she decided to play along.

“I think you misunderstood the relationship between me and those heroes. They aren’t expendable resources but my closest comrades. No, more accurately, they are the light that appeared in my darkest moments!”

Speaking, White Fu suddenly removed her spiritual construct helmet and clasped her hands together, as if in prayer.

The Void War Princess was baffled by this sudden move.

Heroes, comrades, a light?

Wait, if so, why did you send them to their deaths? Is this how you treat your benefactors?

White Fu shook her head and sighed, “I know you don’t believe me, but this is the truth. To explain this, it involves a very big secret. I originally didn’t want to tell you this secret, but after the incident on Ulysses, it will inevitably come to light sooner or later. So, I’ll tell you, but promise me not to reveal it now.”

The Void War Princess said, “I promise, go ahead.”

White Fu continued, “Actually, those heroes possess the ability to resurrect.”

“What?!” the Void War Princess was shocked, “Do you mean each of them…?”

White Fu looked serious, “Exactly.”

The Void War Princess’s heart was in turmoil. While she had seen resurrection abilities before, the notion that nearly a hundred people all had such abilities was astounding.

“I know this is hard to believe, but it’s the truth. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them,” White Fu said.

The Void War Princess calmed down slightly. This explanation could justify why those “heroes” obediently followed Silver Moon to crash into Brohm. However, she still didn’t understand why the heroes were so loyal to White Fu.

White Fu quickly provided the answer.

“My bond with these ‘heroes’ began with a chance encounter… I was born in Star Ocean, but due to an accident, I ended up on the planet where the ‘heroes’ lived. At that time, I was destitute. One day…”

White Fu painted her exploitation of players as a mutual support process. Together, they fought bugs and wanderers, and eventually, under their passionate combination, all evil forces on Source Star fell, and they established a new order amidst the ruins.

“On that planet, I rediscovered myself and made many friends. So, on the day I left, I secretly vowed to find a way to restore that planet. When these ‘heroes’ heard about my plan, they decided to follow me to Star Ocean to search together. They truly… well…”

White Fu’s expression was a mix of gratitude, joy, and a hint of tears.

This rich display of emotions immediately caught the Void War Princess off guard.

“S—”

She believed it.

Is it possible to act to this extent? And Silver Moon said she could always check with those immortals.

The answer was clear!

Those immortals were indeed heroes, but clearly, Silver Moon was the bravest person in the story. Although everyone did the work together, she was the initiator and lacked the ability to resurrect.

For world peace and restoration, she risked everything. No wonder those immortals were so loyal to her.

At this thought, the Void War Princess felt a pang of guilt.

She had mistakenly considered White Fu a villain due to her lack of understanding of Silver Moon and her followers. She had even tried to lure away these loyal followers from Silver Moon.

Her actions completely contradicted her respect for “heroes.”

“I was wrong.”

The Void War Princess sincerely apologized and offered to compensate White Fu for emotional distress.

White Fu waved her hand, “That’s too much. You’re not wrong. People unfamiliar with us naturally misunderstand, and we intentionally let them misunderstand to intimidate slavers eyeing Ulysses.”

“You and the Ulysses people didn’t have any prior interactions, so why risk a conflict with Singularity Company?” the Void War Princess curiously asked.

White Fu replied, “We didn’t interact. I helped Wei Ke because I saw Ulysses and worried my second home might become like it. It’s a normal planet in the Dark Domain, powerless against cosmic civilization invasion. I thought, by helping Ulysses now, maybe someone will help my second home in the future?”

The Void War Princess nodded repeatedly.

What a pure heart! What a kind person! What a remarkable purity!

She grew increasingly convinced that White Fu radiated an angelic glow, growing fonder and wanting her more, yet afraid of rejection.

Affinity +5, Affinity +5…

The changes in affinity on White Fu’s attribute panel confirmed her acting success.

Pure?

My hair was originally black!

The Void War Princess didn’t know what White Fu was thinking. After some hesitation, she still invited White Fu, “In clearing scattered spiritual energy pollution and restoring planetary ecology, I think I can help you.”

“Really?” Then White Fu smiled bitterly, “Unfortunately, I don’t have money now.”

The Void War Princess said, “You don’t need money.”

Just your body, yes, your body.

“And I have ways to prevent trouble for your second home.”

White Fu understood, “You want me to join Star Treaty?”

“Yes.” White Fu didn’t hesitate, “Don’t worry, Star Treaty’s rules aren’t strict. Even joining Star Treaty won’t make you lose your freedom entirely. It’s similar to joining a mercenary group, even easier.”

White Fu didn’t rush to reply to the Void War Princess, weighing the pros and cons of accepting or rejecting.

If she refused, some players might harbor ulterior motives. Afterward, she could continue leading players through Star Ocean, taking commissions and completing quests, saving up to buy a spaceship and return to Source Star to bring more players, then kickstart the next phase of growth.

If she accepted, she would temporarily be overshadowed by the Void War Princess, but the benefits were clear. With Star Treaty’s identity, safety would increase dramatically, access to unique missions unavailable to hunters, quicker acquisition of a spaceship to return to Source Star, and an implicit benefit.

Currently, she was below the Void War Princess, but once she rose, she could overshadow the Void War Princess, and players would be surprised to discover “FuFu is so powerful, even in Star Ocean.” This discovery would boost her popularity.

Popularity increases with comparison, highlighting its value.

Of course, White Fu had a bit of malicious pleasure, wanting to see the players who supported the Void War Princess out of opposition to her become furious when they discovered the Void War Princess and her entanglement.

“I’m willing, but I need to ask the others first.”

The Void War Princess immediately became excited, “Go, go.”

Seeing her lose composure, Green Mud couldn’t help but slap his forehead, “Here we go again!”

After bidding farewell to the Void War Princess and Green Mud, White Fu found the anxious players and announced her temporary joining of Star Treaty.

The players who were just thinking about how to save White Fu from the Void War Princess were startled.

What? This development?

They soon became excited.

No fighting was good, and joining Star Treaty was even better.

Star Treaty, the legendary force that even cosmic-level civilizations fear!

“How did you do it, FuFu?”

“Surely FuFu used her extraordinary charm to make the Void War Princess fall at her feet!”

“Fine, fine, beautiful girls shouldn’t fight. Cuddling is the way forward.”

The players chattered excitedly, imagining a bright future.

Some of the live stream’s comments started emitting warm vibes.

[Wait, what?]

The Void War Princess wasn’t there to fight White Fu, but you all disappeared where?

After agreeing with the players, White Fu returned to the Void War Princess, “They agreed.”

Great!

The Void War Princess was overjoyed, feeling like she had found a treasure, “From now on, we’ll be companions. Don’t call me by my nickname anymore. My real name is Scarlet Leaf. Just call me Scarlet Leaf.”

White Fu nodded, “My real name is White Fu.”

“Next…”

“Next, I’ll go with you to Ulysses. A visit there should temporarily dissuade many from targeting Ulysses,” Scarlet Leaf said.

White Fu had no objections. This way, she wouldn’t need to split people to watch over Ulysses, and Wei Ke’s loyalty would increase significantly.

Seeing them not fighting but chatting and laughing, Mountain Opener finally summoned the courage to approach.

“I-I’m just here to pay the fee. Take it, I’m leaving now.”

After the transfer, Mountain Opener fled hastily, fearing any further mishaps.

At this point, White Fu officially received the task completion notification.

**[You completed the hidden quest [Dissociative Medication], gaining 3 million experience points and the skill [Whirling Magic Blade].]**

**[You completed the hidden quest [Dark Tide Rising], gaining 3 million experience points and 30,000 credit points.]**

Since she had increased Scarlet Leaf’s affinity above 20 during the quest, the **[Dark Tide Rising]** quest also rewarded her with a hidden bonus—a **Prayer Card Crafting Blueprint**, which was self-explanatory.

White Fu never expected such a pleasant surprise. With this, she could greatly increase her efficiency in crafting prayer cards.

**[Whirling Magic Blade]** was a fantastic active attack skill that summoned high-speed rotating spiritual energy blades around her body, the number depending on the skill level.

When White Fu leveled this skill to Lv10, she could summon up to 10 blades, combining both style and lethality.

“Great, once my relationship with Scarlet Leaf improves, I can borrow a large spaceship from her to rescue people from Source Star.”

This mission really paid off.

White Fu couldn’t help but look forward to the future where tens of thousands of players would flock to Star Ocean to work for her.

Preparing to leave the Singularity Company that had been devastated, she called out to Scarlet Leaf and Green Mud.

“I have two companions waiting for me nearby.”

A few minutes later, Anya and Yulia arrived in their spaceship.

Upon seeing Scarlet Leaf, Anya’s eyes became extremely wary. Her gaze traveled from Scarlet Leaf’s exposed toes to her blazing pink hair.

Oh no, another dangerous figure approaching FuFu!

Compared to Anya’s alertness, Yulia was much calmer.

Whatever.

Unless the opponent’s strength was beyond imagination, with her complementary relationship with White Fu, covering every aspect from abilities to mind and body, she could remain composed.

Two hours after White Fu and Scarlet Leaf’s spaceship entered deep space, an unremarkable man appeared outside the ruined Singularity Company.

It was midnight, yet the ruins were bustling with villains “treasure hunting” from all directions.

He slipped into the secret laboratory excavated by White Fu. With a wave of his hand, he pulled a villain who was rummaging around towards him and grabbed his neck.

“Where are the things inside?”

Silver light emitted from his eyes, piercing the villain’s brain like threads. The villain trembled and spilled everything he knew.

After obtaining the desired information, the man crushed the villain’s neck and activated his communicator.

“The prototype of the dissociative medication is missing, in the hands of the Dark Moon faction of Dark Moon Tide Company.”

“The prototype itself isn’t harmful, but if they know our true reason for researching it… This will have extremely negative consequences for our Tower of Secrets. Find a way to retrieve the prototype!”

“Yes.”

A glint flashed in the man’s eyes.

Who Made Her an NPC?!

Who Made Her an NPC?!

Status: Ongoing

What should you do if you suddenly transform into a random NPC in the beginner’s village—one who could die at any moment?

At first, Bai Fu was just trying to survive. She farmed goodwill from players, hoping to use their power to suppress the NPCs who were giving her trouble. But she didn’t expect to overdo it.

From "the players' most reliable support" to "the lonely guardian of the border", and finally to "the first saint in the empire’s turbulent era", the players, in their sheer enthusiasm, hoisted her all the way to divinity.

In the empire’s thirtieth millennium, a former emperor—who preferred to remain anonymous—spoke out in a heated interview:

"Those damn immortals charged into the palace, shouting about friendship and bonds, and forcibly placed my crown on that demon Bai Fu’s head. It’s a crime against nature!"

Bai Fu, in response to these accusations, was indignant.

"A demon? Me? From start to finish, I’ve always preached love and justice. Don’t slander me with baseless claims... It was tough for me too! Maybe instead of blaming others, you should reflect on yourselves. After all these years, have you ever truly acted like decent people? Why do you think the immortals only attacked you and not me?"
