The legendary gang, the Wendong Society, was besieged by the Nan Hongmen and internal traitors at a courtyard compound in Shuanghe District. Its chairman, Xie Wendong, was missing and presumed dead, and the twelve elders were either killed or injured. The Wendong Society officially disbanded. The Nan Hongmen seized the opportunity to take over the northern underworld, installing puppets and ruling with an iron fist. Over the next three years, Beilin City appeared prosperous on the surface, but undercurrents swirled beneath it. The old order collapsed, and new warlords carved up the city. Xie Yun, Xie Wendong's grandson, was a freshman in the finance department at Beilin University. Polite and refined in appearance, he had inherited his grandfather's cold-blooded cunning and ruthless methods. After three years of lying low and honing his skills in combat and finance, he returned with a mission of revenge and restoration.
