The night was getting deeper, and the street of bars became livelier.

Music shook the heavens, lights dazzled the eyes, smoke mixed with the scent of alcohol and make-up, forming this extravagant nightlife.

Young men and women in the dance floor twisted their waists energetically, indulging in unrestrained passion.

Wearing sexy and revealing uniforms, the dancers performed various challenging moves on the steel pole, eliciting cheers and applause from the crowd.

This place was the paradise for young people, but also the hell of depravity and indulgence.

People relied on alcohol to numb their senses, coveting those fleeting moments of excitement to soothe their restless souls and catch a glimpse of happiness in the endless emptiness of the world.

They bragged about enjoying life’s pleasure while it lasts, drinking and reveling every night, never getting tired of their debauchery.

Such scenes happened every day and night.

Zuihong Bar was even more boisterous than usual tonight.

It was said that several new dancers had arrived, all with seductive figures and pure-looking faces; true beauties with devilish charms.

When these dancers stepped on stage wearing masks, the atmosphere reached its peak.

In the corner booth, Wan Xiang exclaimed, “The Qinglong Order?”

The opposite Ran Gong quickly turned his head and scanned the surroundings. The music was too loud, and everyone’s attention was drawn to the dancing women on stage, so no one noticed their conversation.

“Brother Wan, lower your voice. If someone hears us, it will cause trouble. This is the top secret of the Qinglong Association. Don’t tell me you don’t know about it, even though you are a trusted person of Aunt Qing?”

Wan Xiang put down his wine glass, his face darkening gradually.

“I always thought it was just a rumor.”

“Our Master Wen had deep thoughts, or how could he create such a huge family business in Jiangzhou and dominate for decades? No offense, but at his peak, even celestial beings had to yield to him. And now, this Master Xiao may have some tricks up his sleeve, but he is still far behind Master Wen in ruthlessness.”

“What exactly is the Qinglong Order?” Wan Xiang asked.

Wan Xiang had saved Ran Qing’s life and was trusted by her. Unlike Ran Gong, who grew up in the Ran family, Wan Xiang was not well-acquainted with its inner workings.

Ran Gong glanced around the room, then leaned closer to Wan Xiang and whispered something. Wan Xiang’s pupils contracted slightly.

“Really?”

“Do you know Yu Jiang?”

“Nonsense, who in the Qinglong Association doesn’t know?”

Ran Gong pinched a peanut and tossed it into his mouth, “When I was a child, I often saw Yu Jiang coming in and out of the Rans’ residence. Once I fell asleep in the garden and overheard her conversation with Master Wen. At the time, I didn’t understand it, but after pondering it for over a decade, I finally figure out the meaning.”

“Heh heh, as long as you have the Qinglong Order, you have the entire Qinglong Association. Even Master Xiao can’t do anything.”

Wan Xiang glanced at him, “Why are you telling me such an important secret?”

Ran Gong sighed, “Master Xiao doesn’t trust us, and we can’t fight against him. We just have to be honest and make a living. As for you, Brother Wan, you are young and talented, and have helped Aunt Qing solve so many troubles. She should have handed Zhuque Hall over to you long ago, but there is still no news. Brother, I feel sorry for you. In my opinion, not only Zhuque Hall but also Baihu Hall should be yours. That Lin Feng only knows how to flatter others, and he has no abilities to speak of. He can’t be compared with you, Brother Wan. It’s just that he is favored by Master Xiao.”

Wan Xiang knew that his words were meant to provoke his ambition, yet he still fell for it. Such is human nature.

Greed and desire are never-ending.

“So, what does the Qinglong Order have to do with the young lady?”

“Let’s put it this way. Master Wen divided the Qinglong Order into two halves. He kept one half with him, which disappeared after his death. Yu Jiang was the only one at the scene at that time, so why do you think Master Xiao has been looking for her all these years? Master Wen’s half of the Qinglong Order must be with her. As for the remaining half, just think about who else would have it.”

Such an important thing must be entrusted to the most trusted and important person.

For Ran Bowen, a man full of suspicion, the only possibility is that he left it for his daughter.

That’s why Ran Tengxiao brought Ran Bowen’s daughter back in the open, in order to trick her into revealing her half of the Qinglong Order.

With this explanation, everything made sense.

Wan Xiang pondered for a moment, “Has there been any news about Yu Jiang?”

The young lady was right in front of them, but the whereabouts of Yu Jiang, who had been missing for nearly 14 years, remained a mystery, leaving them to wonder whether she was alive or dead.
