Just as Wang Ke stepped out of Fuxuan Hall, a skinny young man walked past Bai Ruochen and that beautiful girl with a thoughtful look in his eyes. He seemed not to pay attention to Bai Ruochen and that beautiful girl, but he had overheard the conversation between them clearly.
Ten more minutes later, he came to an antique store, strode familiarly to the second floor, and then knocked on the door of one of the rooms.
“Come in.”
A majestic and old voice came out from the room.
The skinny young man opened the door and closed it after entering the room. And then he looked at the middle-aged man sitting at the office desk in the room and said respectfully, “Boss, I have just inquired. Although I can’t fully confirm it, I think it’s pretty close to this. If I am right, the person who sold the runes to Fuxuan Hall was Wang Ke. He was also the man who gambled about the magic weapons with Xu Jingkai some time ago and a staff of Self
Stars shining bright in the hazy night sky, cold wind entered the room through the slightly opened window. It was oddly refreshing. Under the dim light from the bedside lamp, Li Ruoxi grabbed the phone and dialed a set of numbers. Hearty laughter was heard from the phone after a moment, “Hello, my dear boss, you finally remember to phone me. Are you doing well recently? I miss you so much as I recall the joyful days working for you.”Li Ruoxi had a faint smile on her face as her beautiful look emitted strong charm.“Dear Alisa, I miss you, too. How are you doing in America?”Alisa heard Li Ruoxi’s question across the ocean, she spoke with a distressed tone, “Not good. Not good at all. The situation is totally different from when I was working with you. Dear boss, you don’t know about this. The job that I got at Wall Street… That hellish place… It’s extremely competitive every day. Even though I’ve become the supervisor right after I ente
Wang Ke’s sight fell on the middle-aged fat man as he stared at him coldly. He didn’t question Tiezi about what had happened anymore but faced the middle-aged fat man, asking, “Tell me all the details about this matter, otherwise, I won’t mind breaking your wrist.” The middle-aged fat man’s eyes were filled with fear. The person that stood in front of him at that moment was like an actual demon instead of a man that had emotions. His words were emotionless as his language was unconcerned. He even wanted to break his wrist. What an evil person!Enduring the piercing pain, the middle-aged fat man took a few breathes and then wailed with a trembling voice, “I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you everything. I was hanging around this antique trading market and this kid stole my wallet. This was inadvertently seen by my subordinates. That’s why I hit him. You can’t blame me for this! Godd*mn thief, he should be punished. Hey friend, ouch… I’m a good person. I’m re
Wang Ke took Tiezi to the park near his residence, where he usually taught Tiezi martial arts. Wang Ke stopped near the grove, turned to look at Tiezi, and said coldly, “I need you to give me an explanation. Why did you steal?”Tiezi lowered his head and bit his lower lip. There was a trace of tears flickering in his eyes, but he remained silent. Wang Ke sighed faintly and said indifferently, “From now on, don’t call me your master anymore. I am not interested in accepting a thief as my apprentice. You are no longer my apprentice.”Tiezi was shocked upon hearing Wang Ke’s words. He looked at Wang Ke with pleading eyes and said, “Master… I…”Wang Ke said coldly, “You don’t need to say anything. I won’t let a thief be my apprentice. You don’t need to come to this place again in the future. You are on your own now!”After saying that, he turned around and left without looking at Tiezi again.He was re
Cao Han was forty-eight years old this year. Although he was approaching the age of retirement soon, he shouldn’t be retiring at the age of forty-eight. After all, he still had decades of years to live. He may even live to be a hundred-year-old man. If that was the case, then he had only lived half of his life. It was perplexing to be idle at home like this.The super chef, Cao Han, lived in the Jiuzhou Jiayuan district which was a high-end residential area. In a luxuriously but not extravagantly decorated duplex residential house, Cao Han sat with his legs crossed, reading today’s Changji Morning Post and taking a sip of the fragrant tea from time to time.On the balcony opposite him, there was a birdcage on the clothes hanging bracket, and a beautiful thrush was crowing in it. The pleasant sound made people feel very comfortable.Cao Han seemed carefree and contented, but his slightly frowned brows revealed the boredom an
The little girl who tried to sell flowers to them had a likable appearance. The most attractive feature about her was undoubtedly her big, pure, and innocent eyes.She didn’t put her hair into a cute little braid, but let her smooth long hair cascade over her shoulders. Both Wang Ke and Li Ruoxi felt that if this little girl changed into another set of clothes and dressed up meticulously, she would definitely become a cute little princess, not a “little match girl”.Wang Ke looked at the little girl’s dark, expectant eyes and suddenly felt that he couldn’t refuse this adorable child. After turning his head to glance at Li Ruoxi, Wang Ke squatted down in front of the little girl with a smile and then said softly, “Little girl, why do you come out to sell flowers by yourself? Where is your family?”There was a glint of happiness in her eyes. Looking at Wang Ke’s kind face, the little girl smiled and said, “My brother said he had something
Li Ruoxi had not only a beautiful face but also an angelic heart. Although Tiezi’s persistence made her feel extremely angry, she was actually more distressed.At this moment, she was even more certain that Tiezi must have had a reason for stealing others’ money. She had quietly observed Tiezi’s expression. Just now, when Wang Ke strode into the room and ignored him, there was sorrow and sadness flowing in Tiezi’s eyes. But there was no hatred. If there was a problem with Tiezi’s character, then he would never show such emotions in his eyes. It should be full of anger and hatred.Li Ruoxi stood up, reached out to grab Tiezi’s arm, and tried to pull him up from the ground. At the same time, she said, “Tiezi, get up. Don’t kneel here anymore. Listen to me. Let’s go inside and talk. Your master is just too angry. As the saying goes, the more you love, the more you hate. Your act of theft really broke his heart deeply. Follow me in and explain to your ma
Wang Ke was furious about the theft done by Tiezi, but after listening to what Tiezi and Yaya said, the anger he felt vanished. Tiezi was wrong for doing the theft, but if he did not have money, could he just look at his young sister die from starvation?Speaking of which, Tiezi was just a kid. Would he willingly get beaten up by others after being caught for stealing?Life was like a huge mountain. It fell hard on Tiezi’s shoulders which were not strong. Theft might be his way out for a living.Looking at Tiezi’s sorrowful face with tears, Wang Ke sighed faintly in his heart. He said with a soft tone, “Never mind. I’ll forgive you this time, but I need you to make your promise. From today onwards, you should never steal again. Can you promise?”Tiezi’s tearful eyes that were filled with red blood vessels quickly looked up. With ecstasy in his eyes, he opened his mouth a few times, but he finally remained silent. All he did
The smokes covered Cao Han’s face, and his voice became gradually higher. He spoke loudly, “If it were you, what would you do? As a martial artist, if you become a bodyguard for those rich people, they will give you a lot of money to ensure their safety. But if they look down on you and take you as a tool, what will you do? What will you think about that?”With a deep tone, Wang Ke shouted without hesitation, “I will quit, and never be a bodyguard again.”Cao Han used his big hand to fan away the smokes in front of his eyes. With the look of approval, he said loudly, “That’s right. So, I’m reluctant to work for others, to look at their faces, and even to become a money-collecting tool for them. Even though I am just a chef, at least, I need respect.”Wang Ke stood up suddenly and said with a deep voice, “Mr. Cao, I understand what you mean, but I can definitely pay you respect. If you come to my restaurant, I won’t just treat you as a ch
Seeing the scaly Bai Ruochen with his own eyes, Wang Ke was enraged, if he hadn't experienced too many things, that mind had been honed to be extraordinarily strong, I'm afraid that he would have slaughtered Bai Xuanji immediately."Bai Zhengming, all the Bai Clan clansmen who stand in Bai Zhengming's faction! You guys wait for me, hey, even though Bai Ruochen and I have different blood flowing in our bones, he is my brother, and how you guys treat him now, in the future, I will make you pay back tenfold and a hundredfold!" Wang Ke's voice was like a cold stream on a waxing moon, giving people a creepy feeling as they listened.In the face of Wang Ke's action, although Bai Zhengming's heart was dripping with pain, he hardened his teeth and didn't say another word, but in his eyes, a spiteful light flickered, and his heart had already bred a monstrous sense of resentment towards Wang Ke.Bai Feng, the head of the Bai Family, when his gaze fell on his son Bai Ruochen
Facing the hundreds of White Family experts gawking intently, the hideous look on Wang Ke's face intensified, and if his eyes could kill, he would have already killed Bai Zhengming thousands of times by now. In his mind, the lives of everyone in the Bai Family combined were not worth a single toe of Bai Ruochen.With Wang Ke's words, Bai Family Head Bai Feng's face instantly became extremely ugly, his eyes were filled with flames of anger, his fists clenched tightly, and a vein emerged on his arm. Although he, Bai Feng, was not very good at drilling, his cultivation realm was even stronger than Bai Zhengming's, or else it would not have been his turn to sit in the position of the Bai Family's head in the first place.Fury rushing to the sky, he turned his head to look at Bai Zhengming, Bai Feng snapped, "Bai Zhengming, at this moment, I, Bai Feng, am still the head of the Bai family, although all these years, you have been constantly making small moves behind my back, bu
Now that Bai Ruochen's whereabouts were unknown, Wang Ke felt that he needed to make an early move, in case Bai Ruochen was really controlled by Bai Zhengming's people, then he had to think of a way to rescue Bai Ruochen from Bai Zhengming's hands, or else he was afraid that Bai Ruochen's life would be in danger.Reaching out from his clothes pocket, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes, pulled out one and lit it up before inhaling deeply for a few mouthfuls, and said in a deep voice, "I'll go out later and take a look around to see how the situation is going. If I find an opportunity, I will immediately hijack Bai Xuanji, after all, Bai Xuanji is Bai Zhengming's son, and is also the Bai family's most talented martial arts prodigy, so as long as I use Bai Xuanji to threaten Bai Zhengming, I will be able to get them to return Bai Ruochen."Ouyang Yan frowned and said in a deep voice, "What if Old Bai hadn't been taken hostage by Bai Zhengming? Or rather, Old Bai is now with
Draped in the watery night color, Bai Ruochen quietly followed behind the young man named Bai Dajiang and slowly walked towards the direction of the compound where family head Bai Feng lived. With the cultivation strength that Bai Ruochen possessed nowadays, he was able to keenly perceive that in the shadowy darkness, countless if any auras emanated out, and those who emanated if any auras were not in a high cultivation realm, they were about in the innate realm.However, after he followed Bai Dajiang out a few hundred meters, his complexion slightly changed, his brows furrowed slightly, and his footsteps slowed down quite a bit as he realized that with Bai Dajiang turning the corner at a fork in the road, the direction he was going was no longer where his father lived."What do you mean, Daejang? What did you bring me here for?" Bai Ruochen asked in a deep voice as a hint of wariness surfaced in his eyes.Bai Dazhuang quickly stopped his footsteps and turned his h
The location of the Bai Clan's original family land was located deep within the Fenglong Mountain, surrounded by green mountains on three sides, and even in the dead of night, there were hovering tree shadows swaying in the breeze.After agreeing to Bai Ruochen's suggestion, the three of them rushed towards the Bai Clan's land as fast as they could, with their current cultivation realm, traveling through the deep forests late at night was not a problem at all.In just half an hour's time, the three of them had already seen before their eyes the mountain villa that the Bai Family had spent a huge amount of money to establish in the deep forests of this Fenglong Mountain. On that flat ground, the entire mountain villa was very large in scale, and clear of ancient pavilions and small bridges. If someone who was not clear about the bottom of this place ventured into this world, they would definitely think that they had traveled to ancient times.On the hillside a full
At the foot of the cliff with a gentle breeze, Bai Ruochen exuded a powerful aura, his figure as the words fell, like a sharp arrow shot towards Mo Zun, a distance of six or seven meters, almost in the blink of an eye, the soft sword in his hand, after the true qi was madly injected into it, became straight, and a brilliant sword shadow enveloped in front of him in the blink of an eye."Phantom Sword ... Lotus."A flower like a delicate blooming lotus flower, hidden in the shadow of the hazy sword, the powerful sword gas, but also throughput between layers and layers.Mo Zun, who was holding the longsword in his hand, a horrified look appeared on his face, looking at the sword shadows that shrouded towards him in front of him, his heart shrunk violently, and even his eyes couldn't see clearly which sword shadow was the real one, and the lotus shape that the sword flower pulled into was the one that really possessed the killing power.In Mo Zun's eyes, this mo
After a long time, Bai Muyang slowly sat back on the chair, the body that was previously sitting on all fours, at this time, it seems to be hunched over quite a bit, the eyes still flowed with shock, sighed before saying with a bitter smile, "Dusty, since you're going to be bent on having your own way, there's not much else I can say, I know that no matter how much I try to persuade you, I'm afraid that there's no way to get you to turn back. I'll tell a small path, from there you can get to our family's land at the fastest speed, the main path is all ambushed by your eldest uncle's men."After a minute, Bai Muyang got up and left.Wang Ke watched Bai Muyang's back as he left, and only after the other party's back disappeared outside the door did he look at Bai Ruochen and ask, "He's your third grandfather? Was he good to you in the past?"Wang Ke said the word "before" with extra emphasis.Bai Ruochen heard the meaning in Wang Ke's words and spoke, "That's r
The old man with a full head of white hair sat down on all fours, the hidden aura emanating from him was like a fierce tiger hibernating in the bushes, bringing pressure while hiding a hint of dangerous aura.Wang Ke's cultivation realm had already reached the fifth Refined Qi Transformation God advanced realm, but he still let his muscles tighten up, because he felt that this old man had a hint of threat to him, although he said that he wasn't clear about what realm this old man had reached in the end, but he believed that, at the very least, the other party should all be experts in the fifth Refined Qi Transformation God realm.Bai Ruochen's line of sight, finally slowly raised, sitting down at the table beside him, he had already felt it, even his heart had guessed that the other party should be someone from the Bai family, but when his line of sight landed on the old man's face, he was suddenly slightly stunned, and his eyes flowed through a complex color."You
Driving the cab, white Ruochen at this time has been full of fury, at this moment his heart to the white family people can be considered to hate, has always been, his heart are stored with a trace of fluke, hope that the family can finally give him a hint of opportunity, so that he can fight for their own happiness, but now it seems, then the white family cab driver, surprisingly able to be found in the detection, brazenly jumped out of the car to escape, and attempted to make the car crash, causing harm to them.Not only Bai Ruochen, even Wang Ke and Ouyang Yan were as clear as a mirror in their hearts, that Bai family cab driver, was definitely authorized by some of the family, and could let them die without a burial place if they could not stop them when they were unable to do so, which meant that some of the Bai family's important power holders had moved to kill Bai Ruochen.Nowadays, Bai Ruochen can be said to have a heart of stone, the car maintained the zero point
