Bai Fu faced setbacks in her cultivation; her career also met obstacles everywhere. She valued loyalty and protected her subordinates, seeming a good supervisor, but sadly, she was extremely unskilled in management. Over time, many of her subordinates left, leaving only those like Green Mud who had received her favors.

    Good news, now Fei Ye''s subordinates were each brave and fearless, full of fighting spirit.

    Bad news, now Fei Ye hardly had any subordinates.

    Bai Fu: "..."

    That could still work.

    From the start, she hadn''t expected Fei Ye to help her with the task. She joined the Star Contract mainly to use the Star Contract and Fei Ye''s banners to reduce some unnecessary troubles and, coincidentally, hoped to acquire some hard-to-get resources through this top platform. Now, the situation ironically turned out to be good news for her.

    The more awkward Fei Ye''s situation became, the more important she and the Players would seem, and the greater her freedom would be when the time came.

    Moreover, with the "Empress" weak, her seemingly loyal but treacherous self, striving hard as a traitor, might very well usurp the Empress anytime!

    ...

    Half a day later, the spaceship arrived at Ulysses.

    In order to intimidate the Slave Traders, Fei Ye deliberately showed off while passing through the Star Port, appearing very high-profile alongside Vic.

    Vic was so moved that he was a mess, if not for Bai Fu, he and the other Ulyssians would probably have already fallen into endless disasters by now.

    At this moment, he completely saw Bai Fu as the boss.

    "I must do everything I can to protect her, only with her alive does Ulysses have hope." Sёar?h the n?vel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    When he entrusted this will to Bai Fu, she received a new phase of her main task.

    [Ulyssian Glory Reborn]

    This task had several branches, including rescuing stranded Ulyssians, rebuilding Ulysses, cultivating talent for Ulysses, and making a name for Ulysses.

    The task types were diverse, and although the rewards were not specified, they were undoubtedly significant based on the task''s difficulty. However, Bai Fu did not plan to personally undertake this task, mainly because it was too time-consuming, especially the part about rescuing stranded Ulyssians, which involved much traveling.

    She planned to delegate this task to the Players. As a task sharer, as long as the Players completed the task, she would get a share of the rewards. This move would also earn her a wave of goodwill from the Players. Entering the Star Sea without clarity of the situation, she directly fed the main task to the Players, a gesture as intimate as mothering a baby; it would be almost rude for the Players not to appreciate her.

    After the spaceship landed, Bai Fu and Vic were warmly welcomed.

    On the way here, Vic had already informed his kin about the downfall of Singularity Company. The hospitable Ulyssians presented cherished food and held a very grand welcome ceremony.

    Bai Fu was accustomed to such situations; she had experienced them often on the Ancestral Origin Star. Conversely, Fei Ye seemed quite uncomfortable.

    "This is my first time."

    Her cheeks were flushed, losing some of her usual oppressive aura due to status and power, gaining a bit more of a young person''s charm.

    Bai Fu comfortingly said, "It''s your first time; it''s normal to feel a bit uncomfortable. You''ll naturally get used to it after a while."

    Fei Ye nodded, just about to say something when her communicator suddenly sounded.

    "Herbert?" Her expression slightly changed, hesitated for a moment, but still answered, "What''s up?"

    The image that appeared was a man with skin dry as bark, slender as a peach tree.

    "We have only ten days left until the scheduled time. Why have you suddenly run off to Ulysses? Everyone else is already on their way; don''t be late as the host."

    "I won''t be late." Fei Ye put on a carefree demeanor, "I''ll start heading there to join you tomorrow."

    "This time it''s different; if you perform poorly, it''s not only your monthly rating that suffers, but also the entire image of the Star Contract."

    "Alright, alright, don''t I know that."

    Fei Ye scoffed, seemingly relaxed, but Bai Fu noticed her toes clench, snapping a blade of grass cleanly.

    Wow, that fierce?

    "With that resolve, it couldn''t be better." Herbert nodded and ended the call.

    Bai Fu asked, "A task?"

    Fei Ye shook her head, "A commission from the Star Network Community, to help them with the Flood Disaster. You don''t need to worry about this commission; I can handle it myself. You are new here, better follow Green Mud to get familiar with things."

    Saying this, she stood up and called Green Mud over.

    From Green Mud, Bai Fu gained a deeper understanding of the situation.

    Not long ago, the Star Network Community issued a commission to the Star Contract, hoping it would help combat the worsening Flood Disaster. The minister of the Star Contract Initial Gate Star System Combat Department immediately dispatched five supervisors to address the problem; those two just now were among them.

    Although the commission was officially collaborative without competition, since it was an official operation, the performance of each supervisor was inevitably ranked.

    Lacking subordinates, Fei Ye''s monthly ratings had consistently been the lowest among the seven supervisors over the past seven months.

    This fact irritated her intensely, and she sought to make a stunning comeback in the commission of the Star Network Community.

    Bai Fu was confused, "If you want to make a comeback, why not let us participate in the operation?"

    "Blocking the Flood Disaster is not an easy task; the casualty rate is extremely high. Supervisor might have worried that assigning such a task to you right away would scare you off, just like those people before. The Supervisor has been reflecting on her shortcomings, but..." Green Mud looked worried.
