Fang Xiu maintained his composure as he delivered another earth-shattering statent: “Isleland is the first, but it won’t be the last. Eventually, every nation in the world will fall to the Specters—except for Huaxia. Only Huaxia will survive.”
The weight of his declaration stunned even the most active livestream comnt section into silence.
Finally, soone broke the stillness:
“This has to be a joke, right? Don’t get wrong—I love my country. But saying the entire world will be destroyed except for Huaxia? That’s hard to believe.”
“Hard to believe? What’s so hard about it? One day, I’ll beco a powerful psychic and defend Huaxia myself!”
“Let’s be realistic here. If the whole world is dood, it’s reasonable to think Huaxia might be the last to fall. But saying it’s the only survivor? That’s a stretch. Huaxia is strong, but it’s not stronger than the entire world combined.”
“Exactly. Fang Xiu is probably just trying to keep people from panicking or fleeing abroad.”
The doubt spread quickly online, and even so of the reporters present exchanged skeptical glances.
But Fang Xiu remained unbothered.
“Not only will Huaxia survive,” he continued calmly, “but in the future, it will lead humanity’s counterattack against the Specters and end this chaos once and for all.”
The skepticism in the livestream intensified:
“This is too much. Patriotism is great, but let’s not lose touch with reality.”
“Wait a second. Has anyone else noticed how Fang Xiu keeps emphasizing one word—future? First, he predicted the reporters’ questions, and now he’s making all these bold claims. Could he really… see the future? Is there a chance he’s basing all of this on sothing he’s already witnessed?”
Fang Xiu’s next words silenced everyone.
“I understand many of you have doubts,” he said firmly, his voice steady. “But what I am telling you is the truth. I’m saying this because I have already seen the future.”
The room and the livestream audience fell into a stunned silence.
Unwavering, Fang Xiu continued, “Earlier, so of you wondered how I anticipated the reporters’ questions. The explanation is simple: my ability is foresight. I can see the future.”
The livestream erupted into chaos:
“No way! He really can see the future?”
“If that’s true, then everything he’s saying about Huaxia surviving the Specters must be real too!”
“I don’t know. Maybe he’s just saying this to rally morale? He is the Chief Commander. Who’s going to challenge him if he claims he can see the future?”
Amid the debate, a highlighted comnt appeared in the chat, instantly catching everyone’s attention. Clearly, the sender had special privileges.
“I am a psychic,” the comnt read, “and I can confirm that Mr. Fang is telling the truth. His reputation is well-known on global Specter forums. Besides being Huaxia’s Chief Commander, he is also called the Foreseer.
He is widely recognized as the strongest psychic in the world and is sought after by every nation.
Since becoming a psychic, every prophecy he has made has co true without exception.”
The revelation sent shockwaves through the livestream:
“What? Is he really that powerful?”
“I’m a psychic too, and I can confirm it. Everything this person said is true. Mr. Fang’s words are the future. In psychic circles, his na carries legendary weight. The Foreseer isn’t just a title; it’s reality.”
More psychics began flooding the chat with screenshots from global Specter forums. Threads about Fang Xiu filled the screen, detailing his flawless prophecies and legendary exploits.
Ordinary viewers, reading the posts, couldn’t help but gasp in astonishnt.
For the first ti, they truly understood why Fang Xiu, despite his youth, held the position of Chief Commander.
He wasn’t just a leader—he was the Foreseer. The man who could see the future and guide humanity toward survival.
While the crowd outside buzzed with heated discussion about Fang Xiu’s extraordinary revelations, one person wasn’t sharing in the excitent.
Instead, she was trembling with fear.
That person was Xiao Chuxia, crouched under a table, clutching her knees as if the world were collapsing around her.
She peeked cautiously upward, her gaze landing on Fang Xiu, who stood just a few feet away. From her low position beneath the table, all she could see were his pants.
For a brief mont, this odd angle sent her thoughts spiraling into wild, inappropriate directions. But when Fang Xiu confidently declared, “My ability is foresight,” all such thoughts were instantly replaced with raw terror.
Because she noticed sothing terrifying. As Fang Xiu made his bold statent, Xiao Chuxia began absorbing an unusual amount of power of lies from the surrounding crowd.
This could only an one thing: Fang Xiu was lying. His ability wasn’t foresight at all.
The realization sent a chill down her spine. Her mind raced. 'If Fang Xiu’s awe-inspiring performance isn’t due to foresight, then what is it? What kind of terrifying power can allow him to predict questions, command absolute authority, and inspire an entire nation?'
None of it made sense. If Fang Xiu truly had foresight, she shouldn’t have been able to absorb Lies Energy when he made that claim.
Her thoughts flashed back to their past collaboration.
They had worked together to harvest Lies Energy, with her using her Spiritual Energy to amplify his efforts.
Yet during that ti, Fang Xiu had never explicitly claid foresight as his ability.
He’d only hinted at seeing a thod to break through the fifth tier in the future—a statent she now knew had been a lie, since most of their breakthroughs had co from her power.
Now, however, Fang Xiu had made a direct claim about his ability, and the power of lies flooding into her confird it wasn’t true.
The implications were horrifying.
Xiao Chuxia suddenly felt like a naive rookie who had stumbled upon a dangerous secret she was never ant to know.
Her mind spun with paranoid thoughts: would Fang Xiu silence her? Intimidate her? Use her as a pawn?
Her panic spiraled until Fang Xiu’s voice cut through her thoughts, speaking directly into her mind, “How’s the Lies Energy absorption going?”
Her heart skipped a beat. He knew! Of course, he did—this was Fang Xiu.
Swallowing hard, Xiao Chuxia stamred, “I can only absorb the Lies Energy from people in the room. The energy from the internet… I can’t collect it.”
Fang Xiu’s expression didn’t change. He had anticipated this.
This confird what he already suspected: the Lies Energy ability, while potent, had its limits.
If it could draw energy from the internet, Xiao Chuxia wouldn’t need him at all—she could simply start a livestream and be an influencer, and the lies from millions of online viewers would provide an endless supply of energy.
Clearly, the power of lies absorption was confined to a certain range. To harvest it on a massive scale, a specialized dium or controlled environnt would be required—sothing akin to Nightmare’s Dream Realm.
Fang Xiu made a ntal note: if shortcuts like this weren’t feasible, he would have to rely on sheer strength in the future.
Once his power grew enough, he would use nightmares to shroud the entire nation, creating a vast field for harvesting Lies Energy.
For now, his grander plans to deceive the entire country would have to wait.
“Xiu…” Xiao Chuxia hesitated, her voice trembling as she finally mustered the courage to ask, “Your ability isn’t foresight, is it?”
“Correct,” Fang Xiu replied without a mont’s hesitation.
Her heart stopped. 'It’s true. I know his secret. I’m dood.'
Xiao Chuxia’s panic surged again, her imagination running wild. Fang Xiu would definitely silence her now that she knew the truth. Perhaps not by killing her outright—she was still useful—but surely he’d find another way to control her.
She could already envision him using his overwhelming authority and power to bend her to his will.
But to her astonishnt, Fang Xiu showed no interest in her nervous state.
He didn’t glare, didn’t threaten, didn’t even acknowledge her fears. His attention was already elsewhere.
Because Fang Xiu never feared others discovering his secrets.
After all… no one would ever believe in Xiao Chuxia, probably the biggest liar in the world.
