Although the Metropolitan Police Department and Longteng had promised to step back for a day, the raging torrent of riots outside the Longteng Medical skyscraper lasted for three days before gradually subsiding.

By this time, the first to tenth floors and the basement levels of the building had been completely emptied out.

Meanwhile, the South District Qingyun Gang was slaughtered and expelled by the Greenwood Coalition. From the Zhang family down to the errand-running lackeys, droves of Azure Cloud Gang members fled Dongtu Street in all directions. This veteran mega-gang had been thoroughly crushed.

When the first snow, which had been falling for several days, finally stopped, the massive conflict known as the Shengxing War drew to a close.

However, many things were only just beginning.

The streets of Dongtu Street's South District were essentially undergoing a complete reshuffle. How to reorganize the casinos, brothels, teahouses, and other properties originally managed by the Azure Cloud Gang—and how to carve up the entire South District itself—remained a pressing issue.

Ever since the era of the Qingyun Seven ended, the South District had been the most chaotic and lawless area on Dongtu Street—a culture entrenched over many years.

Without a solid street hierarchy going forward, another Azure Cloud Gang would simply rise up. After a while, it would either be brought back under the Longteng Group's control or invaded by opportunist gangs from neighboring outer districts, much like the nearby Fist District.

Veteran underworld figures all knew that this period of division had to be handled with extreme vigilance.
