Black Myth: Starting from the Destined One-Chapter 54 - 50 Dream Marriage
Chapter 54: Chapter 50 Dream Marriage
Chapter 54 -50 Dream Marriage
Li Ping’an rolled his eyes at the female boss:
“No, who told you that thing just now was a ghost? Bringing superstitions to me, huh? Let me tell you, there are no ghosts in this world. Everything just now was special effects, special effects, remember that!”
The timid female boss visibly relaxed, her entire demeanor easing as she asked enthusiastically:
“Young man, how old are you this year? My daughter looks about your age; she’s also in university. Do you have a partner? If you take a liking to my daughter and get engaged to her, I could let you manage my listed company…”
Li Ping’an could tell that they didn’t believe what Huang Yi’an and Wanyan Mengwen had said, so he joked in response:
“If you bring that up, I’m not sleepy anymore. I’m still single in this world. It’s a perfect chance to tackle my Achilles’ heel, but really, there are no ghosts in this world!”
But another big boss wasn’t giving up:
“Living Immortal, you really scared us to death just now. We thought we were going to be killed by that thing, so I used my phone to record my last will and everything that happened. The video is very clear, it was a ghost fighting you just now, shattering the chandelier; you even used spells, a Lotus Platform that flashed by, and a burning fireball…”
“Exactly, exactly, we saw everything very clearly…”
This group started to clamor again, begging Li Ping’an to either teach them the spell for longevity, or to introduce them to their exemplary women, or to show him the video footage they had just recorded on their phones.
Now Li Ping’an fully understood why, over time, the records of immortals who had ascended to immortality became fewer and fewer. In the information age, they just disappeared from the public eye.
It’s definitely because the more advanced the cultivation of the Taoists, the more they feared being disturbed by ordinary people, just like these folks here. Today this Emperor asks you for rain, tomorrow that Prince orders you to perform the Luo Heaven Grand Rites, and the day after, some official is pleading to be taken as a disciple. It just never ends, does it? How could there be any time left for cultivation?
Fortunately, Li Ping’an had anticipated this and had already informed Huang Yi’an and Wanyan Mengwen beforehand. Now, it was just a matter of dealing with these utterly convinced people.
“Everyone, look at me!”

Li Ping’an suddenly jumped five meters up from the spot, spun backward, and landed smoothly. He shouted at the once again surprised crowd, attracting everyone’s attention.
“Dream Marriage!”
Li Ping’an had no choice but to use the Divine Skill he had just mastered, “Dream Marriage,” directly entering and tampering with their memories through their eyes. Since his cultivation wasn’t very advanced yet, he could only make them believe that everything that had just happened was merely a dream.
Especially the big boss who had recorded everything on his phone, Li directly manipulated his thoughts and commanded him to delete the video footage.
Of course, he had not used this Divine Skill “Dream Marriage” on Wanyan Mengwen and Huang Yi’an because Li Ping’an was still eyeing that 500,000 yuan reward. He was afraid that once everything was over, Huang Yi’an and Wanyan Mengwen might deny it, which would be like shooting himself in the foot.
With that 500,000 yuan reward, Li Ping’an wouldn’t have to rely on financial aid at university anymore, nor would he have to look up to his class president, Li Tianyi.
Wanyan Mengwen and Huang Yi’an saw a sharp light shoot from Li Ping’an’s eyes, dispersing into the eyes of everyone present, including the other eight policemen there.
At that moment, those people were like wooden dolls, completely motionless, their eyes unblinking, staring continuously at Li Ping’an, fully entering the dreamscape.
“Li Ping’an, what are you doing?”
Wanyan Mengwen and Huang Yi’an asked anxiously.
“Oh, don’t worry, I just didn’t want them leaking anything about today and causing me unnecessary trouble, so I helped them create a dreamscape!”
With the matter resolved and the karma dissipated, Li Ping’an was now free to leave, hidden from fame and praise, smiling proudly amidst the mortal world.
“What? Are you really a Living Immortal, truly skilled in spells?”
Wanyan Mengwen looked at Li Ping’an with immense admiration and fully confirmed her guess.
“Nonsense, if he isn’t a Living Immortal, how could he have dealt with that thing?”
Huang Yi’an joined in:
“Li Ping’an… no, Immortal Li, are you interested in working for the police department?”
Li Ping’an replied with displeasure:
“Isn’t this over yet! How many times do I have to say it for you to believe me, my technique is not a spell but hypnotism. Haven’t you seen magicians who can hypnotize on TV? Don’t bring this up again! And don’t forget what you promised me initially!”
Wanyan Mengwen and Huang Yi’an, puzzled, said:
“Both of us saw it with our own eyes, why won’t you admit it?”
There was no room for negotiation about this matter, in today’s society, having someone like Li Ping’an was a huge threat to any force.
“If you bring this up again…”
Li Ping’an threatened:
“I might turn you into one of them, and I’ll just give up the reward!”
“Alright, alright, we won’t mention it again…”
Wanyan Mengwen and Huang Yi’an dared not say more, but they finally asked cautiously:
“Li Ping’an, is this matter really completely resolved? Because we don’t have your abilities and are amazed, we have to report to the higher-ups and be responsible to everyone, so…”
“Well, although I’m very tired now, to prove that this matter is completely resolved, I’ll take you there anyway.”
Li Ping’an withdrew his Divine Skills, closed his eyes wearily, rubbed his temple with his right hand, and helplessly pointed with his left hand toward the back door of the banquet hall:
“Now, follow me and walk through every corner of the Silver Dragon Tower.”
“That’s best, thank you.”
Huang Yi’an immediately turned and ordered the other police officers present:
“Hey, hey, hey! Wake up, take everyone to the nearby hotel for unified management, observe for a day, and if there are no other accidents, release them.”
“Yes, Captain!”
After finishing all this, Li Ping’an led Huang Yi’an and Wanyan Mengwen towards the back door of the banquet hall.
As they passed the spot where Li Ping’an had fought the Fierce Ghost, Wanyan Mengwen and Huang Yi’an suddenly saw the imprint of a Lotus Platform pressed into the carpet, clearly visible.
It proved that they had not been mistaken before, Li Ping’an indeed had the abilities of a Living Immortal and had really battled the Fierce Ghost with spells, although Li Ping’an was unwilling to admit it. After glancing at the imprint, the two followed Li Ping’an and inspected the entire Silver Dragon Tower.
During the inspection, aside from encountering a few rats and stray cats, they didn’t see, hear, or feel anything from the Fierce Ghost.
After completing the inspection, Huang Yi’an and Wanyan Mengwen breathed a sigh of relief, completely reassured.
