Long Wei sneered, "Who said the General's Mansion was wiped out? Aren't there still people in the palace? Don't forget, the former master of the General's Mansion wasn't surnamed Yang!"
"Heh, even so, you still can't get into the palace, right?" Cheng Xi said, looking at Long Wei.
"Hmph, if I could get in, I wouldn't be looking for you!" Long Wei sneered.
"I won't take you in," Cheng Xi said coldly.
"Tell me, have you really been turned by that Qingge?" Long squinted at Cheng Xi. "You know she's our common enemy!"
Cheng Xi's eyes widened. "What did you say? What does this have to do with her?"
"Our Dragon Clan's guardian deity, the Dragon God, died because of her!" Long Wei said coldly.
"This is impossible! Lord Shenlong's strength is extraordinary, and no ordinary person can match him!" Cheng Xi said, her face full of disbelief.
"Heh, believe it or not, go to the palace and ask her! I can tell you definitively that the demise of the Long family's fortune was all her doing! Otherwise, do you think her brother, with his meager fortune, could have become the emperor?"
Cheng Xi glanced at Long Wei, took a deep breath, said nothing, and turned to head towards the palace.
When Huang Xi placed the dog on the table, Lan Ying's face darkened, and she said irritably, "What are you doing bringing a dog here?"
"We just happened to run into it on the way, we can't just stand by and watch it die, can we?" Huang Xi said irritably.
“Princess Qingge, look at her—” Lan Ying glared at Huang Xi.
Qingge glanced at the dog on the table, then remembered that she once had a fox on her own table. She waved her hand dismissively, "Never mind, a dog is a life too. Saving it is a good deed."
Green Embroidery was somewhat surprised to hear Qingge's words, but she didn't think much of it and went forward to check the dog's injuries.
After the examination, Green Embroidery's expression turned serious, and she was somewhat surprised. "This guy—"
"What's wrong?" Huang Xi looked at Lü Xiu with a puzzled expression.
“This guy’s internal and external injuries are beyond what ordinary people can endure, I never expected him to live for so long!” Green Embroidery said with a frown.
"Isn't that a good thing? Why are you frowning?" Lan Ying asked, puzzled.
“Its vitality seems tenacious, but it’s just a last gasp before death. Its life force only lasts for seven days, so it should only live for seven more days,” Green Embroidery said.
"Huh? Then wouldn't all the effort have been for nothing?" Huang Xi said with a bitter face.
"What do you mean by 'saved for nothing'? For the weak, even living for seven days is good." Qingge stepped forward and looked at the snow-white dog, saying, "By the way! It doesn't have a name yet, does it? Let's give it a name."
"Since it can only live for seven days, let's just call it Seven Days!" Huang Xi lost his patience.
"Are you cursing it to die? I don't think that's a good idea! How about calling it Little White instead!" Green Embroidery said.
"Vulgar!" Lan Ying said irritably.
"Then what do you want to call me?" Green Embroidery snorted coldly.
Seeing that the two of them looked like they were about to fight, Qingge suddenly spoke up, "Why don't we just call her Qingming!"
Several people looked at Qingge with strange expressions. Having such a name was practically equivalent to being a member of the royal family!
"Ugh..." At this moment, "Clear" regained consciousness and slowly opened her eyes.
Surrounded by a group of beautiful women, "Qingzhi" was somewhat dumbfounded.
"I understand, don't be afraid, this is your home from now on." Qingge gently patted its head.
He clearly squinted his eyes, looking completely blissful.
"Do you know if you're hungry? Here are some snacks!" Huang Xi said with a smile.
The girls were teasing "Qing" when suddenly the door was pushed open, and Cheng Xi, soaked to the bone by the rain, walked in, looking at them with a gloomy expression.
"Chengxi?" Qingge looked at Chengxi with some surprise. "How come you..."
"Tell me, did you kill Lord Shenlong?" Cheng Xi asked coldly.
Upon hearing Chengxi's words, Qingge's gaze sharpened. "You, how do you know about Lord Shenlong...?"
"Was the extermination of the Long family related to the death of the Divine Dragon? Did you steal the Long family's fortune?" Cheng Xi asked one question after another, making Qing Ge's face turn pale.
Qingge didn't answer, but Chengxi had already sensed something was wrong. "Was it you? Answer me!"
Qingge pursed her lips and said, "Lord Shenlong did indeed die because of me, but things are definitely not what you think..."
"Enough!" Cheng Xi said angrily.
"Second sister, what's wrong with you?" Huang Xi asked weakly, frightened.
Lan Ying warily shielded Qing Ge behind her, saying, "You'd better control your emotions."
"Let me control it? It's this bitch who wants to control the fate of my Long family!" Cheng Xi pointed at Qing Ge and shouted, "I trusted you so much! I never imagined that you were the culprit who caused the annihilation of my Long family!"
Qingge quickly exclaimed, "It wasn't me!"
But after saying that, Qingge became melancholy again. "Although it wasn't me, Lord Shenlong did die because of me. I... I can't deny that I did something wrong, but I really didn't mean to take away your Long family's fortune. It was an accident! An accident!"
"An accident? Then killing you now would also be an accident!" Cheng Xi flew into a rage, drew his sword, and stabbed at Qing Ge.
Lan Ying swiftly drew her sword to block, shouting, "Cheng Xi, are you insane!"
"Haha, I'm insane! The Long family was originally incredibly wealthy and possessed formidable fighting power, but their fortune was stolen, leading to their eventual extermination and the death of their guardian dragon. And the culprit is—Qingge!" Chengxi coldly pointed his sword at Qingge.
Qingge pursed her lips but didn't speak.
