During the Northern Expedition, brothers Chen Li Fu and Chen Guo Fu established a covert organization known as the Central Club.

A narrative unfolds depicting a revolutionary who faces numerous perils in his crusade for his nation and eventually joins the Communist Party. During the 1930s, Xiong Bao Shan, the head of a criminal organization controlling Shanghai's waterways, uses up all his resources in a final confrontation against the Japanese invaders. However, before he can achieve victory, he is killed in his own residence. This incident leaves his son-in-law, Chen Lei, wounded, and forces his daughter, Xiong Hui Ming, to escape Shanghai with their child. Chen Lei suspects Sun Ben Li, who has ties to the Japanese Chamber of Commerce, as the perpetrator and aligns himself with police superintendent Zeng Ru Long, a long-standing adversary of the Xiong Family, in pursuit of justice. Misinterpreting Chen Lei's actions as a betrayal, Xiong Hui Ming rises to the leadership of the criminal organization. Will they be able to join forces against their adversaries?
