After returning to the Headquarters Building, the news of Fu Miaoxue's rescue immediately spread like wildfire.
Initially, Du Lai had recruited people from all over to save her, making it known throughout the city. Now that Fu Miaoxue was back, even without any publicity, everyone knew that it was all thanks to Bai Youwei.
Her reputation soared even higher.
Everyone felt that Bai Youwei was certain to make it into the final competition since there were not many Kings left by now.
Bai Youwei occasionally heard people enthusiastically discussing her feats.
She found the phenomenon quite amusing, as if the apocalyptic crisis had receded into the distance and all the pressure had vanished. Or perhaps, it could be interpreted that all the pressure lay on her, while everyone else simply carried on with their lives as usual.
This was probably the only drawback of the base. Chu Huaijin's hard work made the place feel secure and reliable, yet it also led to complacency.
