The Tiger looked at Ye Xiao, somewhat surprised as he gazed at him.

"Why are you probing me?" the Tiger asked.

Ye Xiao replied, "Let's not talk about how I'm probing you first. First, I need to know your real name, right?"

The Tiger hesitated for a moment and said, "Zhang Yunhu."

Ye Xiao turned around, walked over to a nearby chair, sat down, and simultaneously took out a cigarette, tossing one to Zhang Yunhu.

"Wait a minute!" It was Jiang Miaoke speaking.

Both Ye Xiao and Zhang Yunhu looked at her at this moment. Clearly, they didn't understand why this girl suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Miaoke pointed at the cigarette Ye Xiao was biting on his lips and said, "Don't you know that secondhand smoke is harmful to your health? Put that cigarette away, at least while I'm here, no smoking."

Hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, Ye Xiao smiled bitterly, then looked at Zhang Yunhu and said, "I, Ye Xiao, fear nothing under the sky except an angry woman; no choice, you shouldn't smoke either."

As Ye Xiao spoke, he tucked the cigarette behind his ear. Zhang Yunhu intended to have a smoke but, fearing the pistol in Jiang Miaoke's hand, quickly put the cigarette back on the table.

"Why are you probing me, anyway?" Zhang Yunhu looked at Ye Xiao, confused and asking, clearly this was his biggest concern at the moment.

Ye Xiao said, "Simple, let's make a deal. If I tell Cao Jinlong about this and judge from his reaction; if he refuses to believe it, that means he's a good big brother to you. For such a person, you're supposed to work like a dog and a horse. But if otherwise, then you make a choice, or deal with him accordingly."

Zhang Yunhu, despite being very eager to know Cao Jinlong's attitude, still hesitated. After all, that was his sworn big brother. If he were to kill Cao Jinlong, it was evident that he wouldn't be able to bring himself to do it lightly.

Meanwhile...

Cao Jinlong left the Central District and immediately rushed toward the Golden Dragon District with his close subordinates. He really couldn't figure out who in the Jinling District would dare to make a move against their Tulong Company. After connecting Zhang Yunhu's call, Cao Jinlong quickly made a call to his third brother, Leopard Head. Originally, Cao Jinlong just wanted to ask Leopard Head where he was, but unexpectedly, nobody answered Leopard Head's call, despite calling multiple times.

Cao Jinlong could sense that things might have gotten complicated, so he had the driver speed up.

Half an hour later, by now, the sky began to darken.

It should have been almost time for the Flying Dragon Nightclub to open, but at this moment, a few small groups of youths were standing around the entrance, which was a clear indication they were people from the Tulong Company.

At this time, a black Audi A6 slowly stopped in front of the Flying Dragon Nightclub.

When this car stopped here, the Tulong Company members who originally gathered around immediately grouped together.

Just then, a person stepped out of the car, burly in stature, with a ten-centimeter scar by the eye, apparently cut by a knife.

"Brother Long!" The Tulong Company members approached immediately upon seeing this man.

This person was indeed Cao Jinlong from the Tulong Company.

Cao Jinlong looked at the people standing around and immediately frowned, saying, "What are you all doing here? Where's your Brother Hu and Brother Leopard?"

"Brother Long, Brother Leopard is dead!" A follower of the original Leopard Head, with a mourning face, said to Cao Jinlong.

Hearing this, Cao Jinlong was slightly stunned, then his expression immediately darkened. Grabbing the person's collar, he angrily demanded, "What did you say? Repeat it."

"Brother Long, it was that man and woman who killed them." The little follower trembled, terrified by Cao Jinlong's ferocious appearance, and hurriedly spoke.

Cao Jinlong's expression turned cold instantly. "Where's Hu Zi?"

"Inside, they've taken him hostage." The little follower said fearfully, trembling.

Cao Jinlong looked toward the Flying Dragon Nightclub and immediately walked in, followed closely by members of the Tulong Company.

However, upon entering the Flying Dragon Nightclub, besides two people standing at the casino entrance, there was no one else. Of course, there were also two dead bodies on the ground, Leopard Head and that previously chatty follower.

"Leopard!" Seeing Leopard Head on the ground, Cao Jinlong's somber face filled with grief. Swiftly, he moved to Leopard Head's corpse, seeing the red dot between the eyebrows and the eyes filled with blood.

"Where are they?" Cao Jinlong's voice was as cold as an ice cavern.

"They went upstairs, Brother Hu was taken up too!" The two people stammered at the casino entrance.

The reason those two hadn't left was not because they didn't want to leave, nor due to Tulong Company's rules, but because they dared not leave; simply dared not.

Cao Jinlong spoke to those behind him, "Take care of your Brother Leopard, three of you come upstairs with me."

"Brother Long, only four of you going upstairs, isn't that too risky?" At this time, a bootlicking follower said with concern all over his face.

"Guard the downstairs, kill any stranger coming down without mercy!" At this moment, a murderous intent overwhelmed Cao Jinlong. He wanted revenge for his sworn brothers, moreover, another sworn brother, Zhang Yunhu, was still upstairs.

Naturally, the Tulong Company members fully adhered to Cao Jinlong's orders. Subsequently, Cao Jinlong led a few close subordinates directly up to the second floor of the Flying Dragon Nightclub.

At this moment, the second floor of the Flying Dragon Nightclub was silent and dimly lit by dark red light.

"I, Cao Jinlong, have arrived. Won't you come out?" Upon reaching the second floor, Cao Jinlong shouted loudly.

Just then, a voice suddenly emerged from a room; it was Zhang Yunhu's voice.

"Brother Long, I'm here!"

Cao Jinlong was immediately surprised when he heard Zhang Yunhu's voice, and hurriedly headed towards that room. However, he was stopped by one of his trusted subordinates after just a couple of steps.

"Brother Long, be careful, it might be a trap!"

Cao Jinlong glanced at this subordinate and then said, "Once inside, kill anyone that's an enemy for me."

"What about Brother Hu?"

"Kill him too!" Cao Jinlong said coldly.

Upon hearing Cao Jinlong's words, all of his trusted bodyguards were greatly shocked. They clearly did not expect that Cao Jinlong would even want to kill Zhang Yunhu.

Seemingly noticing his subordinates' doubts, Cao Jinlong whispered, "Does he look like he's being held hostage?"

When his subordinates heard Cao Jinlong's words, they were momentarily stunned, then quickly understood that Cao Jinlong suspected Zhang Yunhu of conspiring with outsiders to kill the Leopard.

"Brother Hu probably wouldn't!"

"I hope not too. Act according to the situation!" With those words, Cao Jinlong headed straight for the room.

Upon entering the room, Cao Jinlong saw a man and a woman sitting on the sofa inside. Naturally, the woman caught Cao Jinlong's attention; she was so beautiful that no words could describe her.

"Brother Long, hello!" Ye Xiao said cheerfully as soon as Cao Jinlong entered.

Noticing that Zhang Yunhu was not in the room, Cao Jinlong was puzzled. The voice had clearly come from this room.

"Where's Zhang Yunhu?" Seeing no sign of Zhang Yunhu in the room, Cao Jinlong didn't dare to act immediately.

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "He's your man, you're asking me?"

"Who are you?" Cao Jinlong looked at Ye Xiao coldly.

Ye Xiao replied, "Ye Xiao."

"I asked who you are."

"That, I cannot disclose," Ye Xiao chuckled.

"Then go to hell." Cao Jinlong cursed angrily, pulled out a gun, and pointed it directly at Ye Xiao, his intention clear—catch him off guard and finish him with one shot.

However, what he hadn't anticipated happened; as he pulled out the gun, Ye Xiao vanished on the spot.

"What?" Cao Jinlong was startled.

Then, someone tapped him on the shoulder, startling him once again. Looking behind, Cao Jinlong discovered that all three of his subordinates were lying on the ground, seemingly knocked out. The one who did it all was none other than Ye Xiao, who was just sitting on the sofa.

"Why so impulsive? I'm not the one who wants you dead." Ye Xiao smiled softly.

Even though he was a bit surprised, Cao Jinlong still looked at Ye Xiao and said, "It's Zhang Yunhu!"

Ye Xiao hadn't expected that Cao Jinlong would instantly suspect Zhang Yunhu.

"Haha, I want to know why you immediately thought it was Zhang Yunhu? He's your sworn brother," Ye Xiao laughed.

Cao Jinlong didn't answer Ye Xiao's question, instead glaring at Ye Xiao, "Who exactly are you?"

Ye Xiao also did not answer Cao Jinlong's question, instead telling him, "Zhang Yunhu has wanted to kill the Leopard for a long time."

"So it turns out he planned to act against me and the Leopard long ago," Cao Jinlong said angrily.

Listening to Cao Jinlong's words, Ye Xiao increasingly felt that there was something between Cao Jinlong and Zhang Yunhu, something significant enough to turn them against each other. Of course, Ye Xiao had no interest in knowing these matters.

"How can you be so sure it's him? I'm your enemy. You know, I could be lying to you." Ye Xiao smirked.

Cao Jinlong sneered, "But I believe it. Zhang Yunhu, come out!"

After Cao Jinlong finished speaking, Zhang Yunhu finally emerged.

"Brother Long!" Zhang Yunhu looked at Cao Jinlong, truly not expecting that Cao Jinlong had been suspecting him all along.

"Don't call me Brother Long." Cao Jinlong glared at Zhang Yunhu with reddened eyes.

Zhang Yunhu said, "I never thought you would distrust me like that. So you never trusted me from the start."

"It's a pity I realized it too late, otherwise the Leopard wouldn't be dead," Cao Jinlong said coldly.

"Alright!" Zhang Yunhu, too, was extremely disappointed at this moment. He had an agreement with Ye Xiao beforehand, but neither he nor Ye Xiao had expected that before they could deceive Cao Jinlong with false words, he had already suspected Zhang Yunhu.

"We are brothers, aren't we?" Zhang Yunhu's eyes also reddened.

"You don't deserve it!"

"Fine, I don't deserve it!" At this point, Zhang Yunhu nearly lost his sanity, and in a swift motion, unbeknownst to when it appeared in his hand, he drove a dagger directly into Cao Jinlong's chest.
