As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to the second page, where he saw what was written.
Lin Tianhe: How is that possible?
The crowd erupted in uproar, looking at Fang Xiu as if he were a monster.
Holy crap! Is this for real?!
The pages continued to turn.
It says on it: Holy crap! Is this for real?!
"Do you think there might be something wrong with this book? After we speak, it writes down what we say? Otherwise, his predictions are too exaggerated. It's like watching a movie; it's like he's holding a remote control, randomly playing and rewinding, and then recording it," someone questioned.
Fang Xiu turned the pages, and there were exactly what this person had said, without the slightest discrepancy.
He then handed the book to the minister.
"The answer to your question is simple: just let the minister see for himself."
The minister took the notebook and flipped through it with great curiosity. He discovered that almost every page had words written on it beforehand, not something written down after hearing what others had said.
He looked at the next page, which read: "I'm going to drink a pound of liquor tonight."
Upon seeing this statement, the minister frowned slightly. What kind of talk is this?
But the next second, a spirit master stood up and said loudly, "I'm going to drink a whole jin of wine tonight."
Upon hearing his words, everyone immediately understood his intention: he was deliberately bringing up an unrelated topic to avoid being guessed.
After he finished speaking, everyone immediately looked at the minister who was holding the notebook.
The minister's face was filled with an expression of profound and unconcealed shock.
Fang Moli and the others sitting next to him also crowded around to look at the notebook, all of them showing expressions of shock.
This incredible ability to predict the future is always awe-inspiring, no matter how many times we witness it.
"What you said is exactly the same as what's written above." The minister confirmed to everyone, unable to hide his shock, and showed them the page.
Several skeptical spirit masters racked their brains and came up with many obscure phrases, some even speaking English.
But their words had all been written down in a notebook beforehand.
Everyone was completely stunned, utterly shocked, and felt a chill run down their spines.
It felt as if a giant hand called fate was gripping your heart tightly.
You think that your fate is in your own hands, that you can decide your own future, and that you can control your own thoughts. Little do you know that the future has already been determined, even so precisely that everything you say is recorded.
This feeling makes one wonder: am I really still myself? Or am I just a puppet manipulated by fate?
Their gazes toward Fang Xiu had shifted from shock to horror.
In their eyes, Fang Xiu was as if he had returned from the future, and he already knew everything about everyone's actions and words at the meeting. No matter how much they wanted to change the future and break free from their fate, they found in the end that it was all in vain.
The future is already written on paper.
Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, Fang Xiu slowly spoke.
"I'm not doing all this to prove how capable I am. I just want to tell you that the future may be mysterious, unpredictable, and uncertain for you."
But to me, the future is nothing more than a puppet that can be observed and changed at will.
If I so choose, I could even foresee your deaths and give you a hint before they occur, choosing from countless futures a path that allows you to live, thus sparing you from death.
Upon hearing this, a hint of fervor inevitably crept into the horrified gazes of the crowd!
Avoiding death!?
What incredible power this is!
Only now did they truly realize Fang Xiu's value: not in guiding you to the future, nor in helping you break through to the fifth rank.
Its greatest value is the ability to avoid death!
"I believe that the smart ones among you have already realized my purpose. That's right, I'm establishing my authority by intimidating you first, and then offering you a carrot. In layman's terms, it's about giving you a beating first and then a sweet treat."
I never shy away from these things, nor am I afraid that you will discover my intentions, because the future I describe is one you cannot refuse.
Fang Xiu's calm words stirred up a huge wave of emotions among everyone.
But no one objected, because they really couldn't refuse.
They even now believe that only Fang Xiu is qualified to be the captain. Who could refuse someone who can predict the future?
Only under the guidance of a prophet can headquarters find the right path in the future.
"Alright, that concludes the establishment of authority. Now, let's talk about my rules."
Simply put, I have only one rule: never question my orders, and obey them unconditionally.
At this moment, Fang Xiu behaved like a dictator, not allowing any second voice to emerge from headquarters.
Strangely, people felt that such dictatorial remarks were justified and should be the way they were supposed to be.
"No matter how outrageous, absurd, or incomprehensible the orders may be, do not use your foolish minds to question them."
I will not make any wrong decisions.
Because I have already seen the future.
Because I am a prophet, I always stand on the side of the future.
His calm words resonated deeply, leaving everyone speechless for a long time.
This meeting was destined to be the most impactful meeting of their lives.
Fang Xiu will be the captain they remember most vividly. With the strength of a third-tier spirit master, he competed against a fifth-tier one to become the captain, and there was not a single dissenting voice.
Fang Xiu calmly looked at the shocked crowd, feeling quite satisfied. It was worth dying several times for the sake of holding a meeting.
PUA successful!
It's conceivable that if the ability to predict the future is demonstrated a few more times in the future, people will be increasingly manipulated by PUA tactics.
Fang Xiu's words meant that the concept of the future would take root in people's hearts.
If it really comes to that, even if Fang Xiu sends the Spirit Masters from headquarters to their deaths, they will go without hesitation.
Just like Zhao Hao said before, if Brother Xiu ever asks me to die, it must be because there might be an even more painful way to die waiting for me.
Sooner or later, the spirit masters at headquarters will also have this idea.
Fang Xiu did these things not to seize power, nor to manipulate his subordinates; what he wanted to do was to make everyone believe him unconditionally.
Only in this way can Xiao Chuxia's talents be maximized.
Turn lies into truth, and the rotten into the miraculous.
The title of prophet combined with Xiao Chuxia's lies is tantamount to her words becoming law in a certain sense!
(I'm too tired to update any further, so I'll just post three chapters today. Also, I saw someone in the comments section actually counting the word count for each chapter, which is outrageous! It's like digging up my underwear! I've been updating to the standard 2,000 words per chapter (including punctuation). What happened to the trust between people?)
