Bai Fu: Watch Closely, This Is How Players Are Used!
What met the eyes of The Sworn One was a photograph.
The main characters in the photo were she herself, Scarlet Leaf, and that subordinate named Bai Fu whom Scarlet Leaf had recently recruited.
Due to Scarlet Leaf’s relationship with her, although she had never personally met Bai Fu, she had a deep impression of her.
When the war on Heaven Lake Star broke out, Scarlet Leaf used the power of the void forcibly to save Bai Fu, which significantly increased her own degree of voidification. This was the first time she paid attention to Bai Fu’s name.
After receiving the message, she had Lemang from the Initial Gateway Subcommittee go over to check the details, and then Lemang brought back an astonishing piece of news.
【In order to cheer up Scarlet Leaf, who was feeling down due to the significant increase in her degree of voidification, Bai Fu voluntarily drew Scarlet Leaf’s blood and told her, “Since you feel lonely after becoming a void life, I will accompany you.”】
How touching these feelings were!
Under Bai Fu’s company, Scarlet Leaf should have a high chance of breaking through her mental block and returning to the right path.
From this moment on, The Sworn One remembered Bai Fu.
Now, several months had passed since the war on Heaven Lake Star, and she saw Bai Fu’s name again.
However, she never dreamed that Bai Fu would appear in this way—
In the photo, she stood behind Bai Fu, her head slightly lowered, her left hand standing by her side with a clenched fist, while her right hand stretched forward, pulling Bai Fu’s clothing, but Bai Fu, who was being pulled, completely ignored her actions and hugged Scarlet Leaf, engaging in a heated verbal dispute with her.
This stance made her look very pitiful, as her figure was two sizes smaller than Bai Fu’s, making her look even more pitiful in comparison.
“What kind of nonsense is this?”
The Sworn One thought the photo was already bizarre, but after reading the specific content of the news below the photo, she realized what true expertise looked like!
[Shocking! The Unspoken Triangle Love within the Star Treaty!]
[The one that makes The Sworn One unable to resist, and even the Void War Princess dares to defy The Sworn One, what is the charm of Bai Fu?]
[Is she the savior Holy Maiden or the enchanting witch? A renowned face reader starts analyzing Bai Fu’s charm from scratch!]
[An expert in emotional studies tells you who is above and who is below between The Sworn One and Bai Fu!]
The Sworn One: “…”
Bang!
The ear-splitting sound of impact quickly alerted Silver Zhu, the permanent secretary of the Star Treaty. A few seconds later, Silver Zhu rushed to The Sworn One’s residence with a tense expression.
As soon as she entered, she noticed a shattered cup on the floor, which was The Sworn One’s most commonly used cup, decorated with a cartoon version of The Sworn One.
Even her most frequently used cup was broken, and now there was a virtual screen unfolding before her—could it be…
“Lord Shiyue, did you see the news?”
“What do you think?”
Dark purple flames directly flowed out from the corners of The Sworn One’s eyes, causing the entire room to tremble uncontrollably.
Silver Zhu twitched her lips.
She had seen this news last night and was worried about what The Sworn One might do if she saw it. Now, her worst fears had come true.
“Who wrote this news?” The Sworn One pointed at the news displayed on the virtual screen, her face pale, “Writing five hundred words of analysis and concluding that I likely have a mother-complex due to developmental issues, and that Bai Fu, who looks very maternal, is above me in our relationship—that’s sheer nonsense, isn’t it?”
Indeed, it was sheer nonsense!
Secretary Silver Zhu fully agreed.
Seeing The Sworn One scolding and fiercely pounding the table beside her.
Pam pam pam!
The table jumped up from the force.
“What kind of joke is this? How could I possibly be the one below?”
Silver Zhu: “…”
Hey, the key point is who is above and who is below, isn’t it? Isn’t everything just made up?
Silver Zhu wanted to complain, but decided not to dwell on this issue.
The Sworn One was like this!
She had been accompanying The Sworn One since childhood, so she knew her personality inside and out.
There were three Ultra-Class superpower users in the Edge World, each with their own characteristics.
The manager of the Arcane Library wore wide robes, single eyeglasses, and carried a black wooden staff. He always appeared courteous to everyone, but when angry, he became even more ferocious than a berserker.
Lufas, the president of the All-Life Cultivation Association, had a different demeanor. It was rumored that he was hundreds of years old, yet he always showed a youthful face outside. His actions were unpredictable, neither good nor bad, just chaotic.
As for the Star Treaty’s The Sworn One…
The most fitting description Silver Zhu could think of was “determined.”
She, The Sworn One, and other core members of the Star Treaty all came from the same civilization, a backward surface civilization based on martial arts and psychic powers.
In that civilization, might was right.
Unfortunately, The Sworn One was always short and slender, which led to her being often disrespected and bullied.
Most people might be defeated by such treatment, but The Sworn One was no ordinary person. She not only didn’t break down but instead was ignited with boundless fighting spirit.
Damn it, who said being short and thin means you can’t knock someone out?
Determined, The Sworn One climbed from a nobody to the biggest power’s [Shiyue] in that civilization. [Shiyue] was a position similar to the Blessed Sect’s holy son because that power revered the moon, hence the title [Shiyue].
At this point, most people might have given up, but not The Sworn One.
[They say I can’t surpass the great figures in history, but I don’t believe it. In my life, I am not inferior to anyone!]
The Sworn One forcibly smashed through the martial arts barrier in front of her with her fists, becoming the first A-class superpower user in that civilization’s history.
By this point, she could change her physique through her own insights into qi training methods, growing taller, larger, and curvier, but she chose not to.
[This is the perfect me; I need no changes. If others criticize me, it’s their blindness!]
Silver Zhu admired The Sworn One’s confidence and determination. Without these traits, she wouldn’t have followed The Sworn One, and The Sworn One couldn’t have risen from a refugee of an invaded surface civilization to become one of the three Ultra-Class beings in the Edge World.
But excessive determination wasn’t necessarily a good thing.
For example, right now, The Sworn One’s immediate concern wasn’t the authenticity of the news but rather that the writer claimed she was beneath Bai Fu. From her perspective, she should be above, especially as an Ultra-Class superpower user.
Trash news!
“Who wrote this news? Have you found out?” The Sworn One angrily asked.
“It was written by a media outlet under the All-Life Cultivation Association. I contacted them and tried to get them to delete the news, but they refused, citing that the news has already spread.”
Silver Zhu explained.
The relationship between the All-Life Cultivation Association and the Star Treaty had always been poor, making it nearly impossible to ask them to remove unfavorable news about The Sworn One.
“I tried to investigate the original rumor article, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find out who wrote it. I only know that the person who posted the article was in the Initial Gateway Star Cluster at the time, and another similar article appeared after it spread.”
As she spoke, Silver Zhu sent The Sworn One the second short essay written by the Grand Butler of the Secret Tower.
The Sworn One quickly glanced at the content of the short essay and suddenly froze.
“High-dimensional life? Hundreds of millions of undead? Has this news spread?”
“It has.”
Hundreds of millions of undead…
The Sworn One repeatedly pondered the term, and gradually, her eyes lit up.
These years, she had been staying at home, not because she liked it, but because she was thinking about how to become stronger.
Since losing to the manager of the Arcane Library, she had been contemplating how to become stronger, but despite her efforts, she still couldn’t find a breakthrough. She had been stuck at Ultra-Class I for too long.
Now, hearing that Bai Fu had hundreds of millions of undead, her mind became active.
Something must be fishy here.
Going to see Bai Fu might help her find a way to become stronger?
“Silver Zhu, stay here and watch the house. I need to meet those undead,” The Sworn One immediately made her decision, “With these two essays spreading, many people will come to gather information. The Arcane Library and the All-Life Cultivation Association might take action. If they come, tell them I don’t know where I went.”
“Yes, leave it to me.”
The Sworn One changed into plain clothes and quickly slipped out of the Star Treaty headquarters.
To cover her tracks, she didn’t use her personal vehicle but bought a ticket for the Initial Gateway Star Cluster like an ordinary person.
Halfway through the journey, Manu and the Tide Civilization released a statement denying the rumors in the Edge World.
Short essay?
Confirmed fake!
[There are not hundreds of millions of undead on Jin Gu Star. At most, there are only a few hundred thousand. To smear Holy Maiden Bai Fu, the author used such despicable means, truly disgraceful.]
In the denial statement, Manu also indicated that the four civilizations would work together to develop Jin Gu Star and build a starport to connect Jin Gu Star with the Initial Gateway Star Cluster. Then, everyone could witness the absurdity of the short essay themselves.
Upon seeing this denial news, the first to react was the Grand Butler of the Secret Tower.
“You said Jin Gu Star had hundreds of millions of undead, didn’t you?”
He stared intently at Pavel, who had escaped from Jin Gu Star.
Now, this obvious flaw rendered his short essay useless. To make the story of catching The Sworn One and Bai Fu and Scarlet Leaf more captivating, he had revised it for three hours!
Pavel had a hard time speaking.
Foster said Jin Gu Star had hundreds of millions of undead, and at the time, the situation was extremely urgent. They had no time to verify, so they could only choose to believe it.
“Damned!”
The Grand Butler lost composure.
Since Bai Fu appeared, the Secret Tower had suffered countless losses.
Originally, he wasn’t too concerned about killing Bai Fu; he just wanted to retrieve the prototype. But now, his thoughts had completely changed—
Kill you, kill you, kill you, kill you!
“Go, notify Liuye Dao, let him experiment with parasites on those newly captured undead to see if they are effective.”
If they are effective…
A cold glint flashed in the Grand Butler’s eyes.
Then, the more undead gathered around Bai Fu, the easier it would be for him to kill Bai Fu!
Soon, the Blessed Sect responded accordingly.
Since the short essay was fake, that meant Bai Fu wasn’t after the True Essence Pillar, right?
Eron immediately contacted the sponsor of the Blessed Sect.
“The Star Network’s denial doesn’t mean that the content of those two articles is entirely false. Find a way to keep an eye on Bai Fu, understand her real relationship with The Sworn One. If she is truly here to seize the True Essence Pillar under The Sworn One’s command, things will get troublesome.”
Eron nodded gravely.
The Sworn One was an Ultra-Class superpower user. If this matter really involved The Sworn One, all his expectations might turn into mere fantasies.
After ending the call, Eron immediately found Su Xi.
“Let me approach Bai Fu?”
Su Xi showed strong resistance. She didn’t want to get close to common people.
Eron said, “This is the will of the Great One. Don’t you want to avoid having your dreams shattered because of The Sworn One’s interference? Or do you want to swap with me? You deal with the Secret Tower, and I’ll investigate Bai Fu?”
Su Xi had nothing to say.
Her strength focused on non-combat areas. Making her fight the Secret Tower would be too much for her.
“I’ll do my best.”
Su Xi reluctantly took the task.
While she was displeased with this, The Sworn One on the interstellar passenger ship also saw the denial news.
Not hundreds of millions?
Still, a few hundred thousand undead weren’t few, and there was research value. Besides, she was already here, so she couldn’t just return now. She might as well treat this trip as checking Scarlet Leaf’s degree of voidification.
…
After traveling in space for several days, Bai Fu finally returned to the Initial Gateway Star Cluster.
She bid farewell to Manu and drove her spaceship straight to the Initial Gateway Subcommittee of the Star Treaty.
On the way, she urgently contacted Green Mud, asking him to rent her a dozen cargo ships. The performance of the ships didn’t matter as long as they could carry people, and the more the better.
Though Green Mud didn’t understand what she was up to, he quickly agreed.
Although Scarlet Leaf still held the title of supervisor, everyone knew that Bai Fu was the true leader of Scarlet Leaf’s team.
One could say that Bai Fu’s “scheme to usurp the empress” was a complete success.
Not only Scarlet Leaf’s team, but now other teams also fully acknowledged Bai Fu.
What else could they do?
Bai Fu could easily beat the Secret Tower on Jin Gu Star, so beating them was like child’s play.
“This new ministerial position doesn’t need to be chosen. Given the current situation, even if I wanted to pass it to someone other than Scarlet Leaf, no one else would dare accept it.”
Looking at Herbert and others’ nervous expressions, Lemang, the minister of the Initial Gateway Subcommittee, couldn’t help but shake his head.
Herbert and others were already frightened by Bai Fu’s recent display of power. After the two short essays were published, they became even more restless, with some even submitting applications to transfer to other subcommittees.
Lemang understood their feelings.
Although Manu said the two short essays were all fake, what if part of them were true, like The Sworn One and Bai Fu being a couple?
Who would dare bet on that?
Lemang took a few steps forward and suddenly stopped.
Standing in front of him was a person whose height reached his chest. This person wore a flat cap, a plain windbreaker, and plain white sneakers, but had a very distinctive face.
“Sworn! One!”
Lemang’s pupils widened almost to the point of shouting, but the voice was intercepted by an invisible force.
He knew this was The Sworn One stopping him from speaking.
“Hush—”
Yes, yes, I won’t speak.
Lemang was stunned.
Why was The Sworn One here, and why was she hiding so well? Could it be…
“Sworn One, are you looking for Bai Fu? She hasn’t returned yet.”
Looking for Bai Fu?
She was actually looking for the undead, but all the undead seemed to be followers of Bai Fu. From this perspective, finding the undead was equivalent to finding Bai Fu.
The Sworn One nodded.
“Don’t tell anyone about my coming here.”
It turned out she was really looking for Bai Fu. Thus, it was unclear whether the triangle love affair existed, but there was definitely something between Bai Fu and The Sworn One.
This time, Lemang was thoroughly convinced of Bai Fu’s abilities.
Not only convinced, but also impressed!
To make The Sworn One secretly travel millions of miles to the Initial Gateway Star Cluster just to find her—what does it mean to be a woman among women! (Tactical retreat)
“I’ll contact Bai Fu immediately and tell her you’ve arrived.”
A few seconds later.
“The Sworn One wants to see me?”
Hearing this, Bai Fu was somewhat confused.
Could The Sworn One have come to cause trouble after reading those two short essays?
She wouldn’t be so petty, would she? Those essays weren’t even written by her.
Only when she met The Sworn One did Bai Fu realize she had overthought it. The Sworn One had come to ask for some players.
Just this?
She immediately gave The Sworn One 100 players.
After bidding farewell to The Sworn One, Bai Fu fell into deep thought.
The Sworn One wasn’t looking for trouble, but this revealed many issues. With the increasing number of players entering the Star Ocean, major forces in the Star Ocean would certainly target the player resources.
Given her current strength, it would be very difficult to monopolize all the player resources.
Rather than waiting for other forces to undermine her, it would be better to proactively send a batch of players out. Let these players infiltrate various factions in the Star Ocean as spies, thus ensuring she wouldn’t become the target of everyone while establishing a vast intelligence network.
In Bai Fu’s view, sending some players out as spies had more benefits than just these.
Firstly, it must be clear that with the current quota of faction quests she controlled, it was impossible to satisfy the needs of two million players.
Sending the unsatisfied players to other factions for cultivation, and then periodically exploiting these players, was better than watching them leave because they couldn’t be satisfied.
“Good, good, good! Players should be used like this!”
On the day Green Mud rented the ships, Bai Fu issued a special mission to Sword Aura Sky Piercing and others to transport players from Source Star, Indigo Star, and Jin Gu Star to the Star Ocean.
The reason she assigned the transportation task to players was partly to enhance their sense of participation, and partly because she was worried that someone might attack the spaceship mid-journey, causing unnecessary casualties.
“Mission accomplished!”
“Go, go.”
Bai Fu smiled and sent Sword Aura Sky Piercing and others off.
Having dealt with this matter, it was time to meet Tessia.
“Wait.”
Just as she was about to leave, Yulia suddenly called out to her.
“Do you want to go together?” Bai Fu looked at Yulia in confusion.
Yulia shook her head and pulled out a few bottles of potions, handing them to Bai Fu: “These are potions that can quickly replenish energy, and these can quickly replenish water. Work hard, and try to come back alive!”
Bai Fu: “? ? ?”
