Chapter 16 The Astonished Lord Black Impermanence
"You, you, you, how did you pick that up!" Fan Wujiu's eyes were filled with disbelief, and he even wondered if what he was seeing was some kind of illusion.

However, in the underworld, apart from the Underworld Emperor and his brother Xie Bi'an, few people could match his magical power.

So, this scene is real?!

"I just picked it up like this." Xu Qingling didn't feel that the dress was heavy; it was just like an ordinary dress.

"So, does that mean this dress is mine?"

Seeing Fan Wujiu looking at her with a complicated expression and not answering, Xu Qingling asked bluntly, "Does this writing on the board not count?"

"...It's a deal, so of course I'll make the decision. Since you've picked up this dress, it's yours." Fan Wujiu still had some integrity when it came to that.

He's a man, and he doesn't need to wear skirts, so naturally he wouldn't be reluctant to part with a skirt.

Although there are many other abilities of this dress that he didn't write on the board.

He didn't need the skirt, but he remembered what his benefactor had said.

This dress could only be lifted by his destined wife. Fan Wujiu had been searching for it for thousands of years... well, not really.

But thousands of years have passed, and he has always taken his benefactor's words as a joke. He never expected that today, at this very moment, in the Ghost Market, this Blue Feather Phoenix Dress would find its owner.

If what his benefactor said is true, then this girl in front of him, whether human or ghost, is his destined wife.

For a moment, Fan Wujiu's feelings were incredibly complex. He felt a sense of astonishment and shock at finding something he had been searching for for thousands of years that he thought did not exist, as well as the absurdity of judging whether a person was his wife based on a dress.

Anyway, he was a little stunned for a moment.

However, Fan Wujiu felt that one dress was nothing. If he didn't like it, even if he had ten dresses, this person would not become his wife.

His wife must be someone Fan Wujiu truly loves.

Fan Wujiu's personality may seem casual, but he is actually very stubborn. Anything he wants or is willing to do requires his own approval.

but……

Fan Wujiu's gaze fell on Xu Qingling. This girl was quite pretty, and he felt that every feature of hers was in line with his aesthetic sense.

Even that aloof feeling felt familiar and delightful to him.

I just don't know how old she is?
Also, is it a human or a ghost?
Fan Wujiu felt that he needed to investigate this matter thoroughly.

Not just anyone can become the future wife of the dignified Lord Black Impermanence.

So, taking advantage of Xu Qingling's inattention, Fan Wujiu placed a mark on her body.

This will make it easier for him to find her.

Xu Qingling had no idea that she could become Fan Wujiu's wife just because of a dress. Not only that, but Fan Wujiu was also arrogant and didn't really approve of her.

If she had known, she would have given up the dress no matter how much she liked it.

But Xu Qingling knew nothing at this moment. She was holding the dress in her hands, just wondering how to wear it.

The next second, the dress in her hand transformed into a stream of alternating blue and white light, which enveloped her body.

A few seconds later, amidst Xu Qingling's confusion, the light vanished.

Xu Qingling's original black dress was gone, replaced by this blue phoenix dress.

The dress looks simple, but upon closer inspection, the workmanship is exquisite, and the hem is embroidered with phoenix feathers, which is the only touch of crimson on the dress.

The alternation of blue and white colors made Xu Qingling, who already had a cool and aloof temperament, even more aloof and unapproachable.

Especially Sikong Yan, he always felt that this dress on the young lady didn't look like a female ghost, but rather... it gave her a bit more divinity?
However, it really is beautiful! "Miss, this dress really suits you so well, it feels like it was tailor-made for you, no, it looks like it originally belonged to you," Sikong Yan praised.

Fan Wujiu looked at the well-fitting dress and was amazed. This dress didn't have any adjustable size function, but it fit the girl perfectly when she wore it. It fit her so well that, just like the boy said, it was as if it was tailor-made for her.

Could it be that this dress belongs to her? Should Fan Wujiu's wife be this girl before him?

As a being from the underworld, one should believe in fate.

But now that I'm in the midst of this destiny, it feels very mysterious and unbelievable.

Anyway, in the end, Fan Wujiu watched Xu Qingling's departing figure and fell into deep thought.

……

Sikong Yan still told Xu Qingling about the origins of Baili Lin and the others.

"...The Baili family is one of the three great families of metaphysics, and the strongest of them. Baili Lin is the direct descendant. Although her abilities are not as good as her genius older sister, she is still very favored. She has many magical treasures and many lackeys who follow her. She is the most petty and willful. Once she holds a grudge against someone, she will not care whether the other party is human or ghost, and she will definitely kill them."

"So, miss, if you ever run into Baili Lin again, be careful."

It was clear that Sikong Yan was giving serious instructions, and Xu Qingling nodded to indicate that she understood.

"Although the Baili family is difficult to get along with, they are indeed powerful. I estimate that the Director of the Fengdu Leave Office will still favor the Baili family for this God-summoning ceremony." Thinking of this, Sikong Yan sighed slightly.

"will not."

"what?"

Xu Qingling turned to look at Sikong Yan and said firmly, "The Director will not choose the Baili family."

"Really? How did you know, miss?"

Xu Qingling: "...Guess?"

Sikong Yan naturally had no idea that the female ghost he had always thought of was Xu Qingling, the director of the Fengdu Leave Office he had mentioned.

Having bought the ginseng, Sikong Yan was eager to return to save his mother, so he didn't continue shopping with Xu Qingling.

However, Sikong Yan genuinely thought this female ghost was very nice.

"By the way, miss, what's your name?" Sikong Yan asked before leaving.

"My surname is Xu."

His surname is Xu... Doesn't that mean he shares the same surname as the director of the Leave Department in Fengdu?!

Then, thinking about the black and gold bank card of the female ghost, Sikong Yan, could it be that the female ghost and Xu Qingling, the director of the Fengdu Leave Office, are related?
Sikong Yan wanted to ask something more, but Xu Qingling had already disappeared.

Sikong Yan stopped pressing the matter and left the Ghost Market with the ginseng.

After parting ways with Sikong Yan, Xu Qingling continued to browse the ghost market, during which she bought many things that interested her.

About an hour later, Xu Qingling, having filled her ring to the brim, decided to leave, no longer wanting to explore.

The road leading out of the ghost market was different from the one leading in.

The way out requires passing through a tall, dense, and dark forest.

Xu Qingling looked around; it was quiet, and it seemed she was all alone.

Just as she continued walking forward, a talisman suddenly flew out from the shadows, heading straight for Xu Qingling...
