Chapter 128 Refused to Budge
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Cao 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

Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 129 The Little Girl Who Sold Flowers
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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 130 The Reason for Committing Theft
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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 131 Home in the Aperture of the Bridge
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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 133 The Effect of Respect
What he had said was like water splashed on the ground which couldn’t be taken back again. Wang Ke was the kind of person who would do his best in everything. Although the few food carvings that he had tried to carve in the past were not very successful, it was mainly due to the limited time. However, this time, he knew that he had to go all out. Cao Han's carving skills were superb. The beautiful white tiger that he had carved out was so lifelike and vivid no matter how its expression or posture was. His skills could easily reach the master level.Cao Han's carving techniques, carving trajectories, and even the subtle processing methods constantly flashed in his mind. At the same time, he slowly outlined the animal he wanted to carve in his mind as well as various processing methods.Five minutes later, Wang Ke suddenly opened his eyes, and spirit energy that was constantly flowing in his body slowly flowed into his hands under his control. As the s
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 134 Yaya Will Protect You
Jing Dong Bridge, although its name was quite resounding, it was not a large-size bridge. On the contrary, due to the reconstruction of the road a few years ago, the entire bridge was abandoned, and the river below also dried up.Li Ruoxi and Wang Ke followed Tiezi to the bottom of Jing Dong Bridge. When they saw the bridge hole that was covered with broken wooden planks and even blocked up with plastic sheeting, they looked at each other with sadness in their eyes at the same time.“Ahh… There is a mouse.”Li Ruoxi, who was about to follow Tiezi and Yaya into the bridge hole, suddenly revealed a panicked look. She immediately jumped up from the ground, pointed at a gray mouse, turned around instinctively, and jumped into Wang Ke’s arms.Wang Ke laughed and hugged Li Ruoxi. He didn’t expect that Li Ruoxi would be afraid of mice. Patting her back gently, he chuckled softly and said, “Don’t be afraid. Mice don’t bite people. L
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 135 The Tough Uncle Chefs
Under the faint glow of starlight, Jiang Liang drove Liu Chengfeng’s Q5, taking Wang Ke, Cao Han, Wang Chengxiang, and Liu Chengfeng to the nearby night market. For chefs like Cao Han, there was nothing exciting about going to a restaurant to eat. Most of the food served in restaurants was not as delicious as the food made by them. Instead of going to a restaurant to eat, they would rather buy the ingredients to cook at home.However, the four of them loved to eat barbecue while drinking beer. As Wang Chengxiang said, they loved the carefree and joyous atmosphere.The dimly lit streets were lined with several makeshift tents, simple tables, and chairs, which made the environment look extremely messy. Coupled with the noise of laughter, it made the entire place bustling with vitality.Obviously, the four of them often came to this night market. After Liu Chengfeng parked the car in an open space not far away, the four of them took Wang Ke
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 136 They Are All Incompetent Trash
There was a saying that you couldn’t judge a book by its cover.If Wang Ke hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that Cao Han, Wang Chengxiang, and the others would personally teach the local ruffians a lesson and that they had such strong fighting abilities. Those local ruffians were not weak either. They often made trouble and engaged in fights. They should have a lot of fighting experiences. If Cao Han and the others had been ordinary well-behaved men, they would have been easily beaten to the ground. Wang Ke looked at the four ruffians who were wailing in pain on the ground, slowly raised his thumb, and said with a smile, "Uncles, I really didn't expect that you all would be so strong. It seems that I will have to pay you double the money after the restaurant opens. If any local ruffians go to the restaurant to make trouble or ask for protection money in the future, you can just take care of them directly.

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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 52 The Tough Guy
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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 51 Hostage Taking
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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 50 A Terrible Death
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
Invincible Connoisseur Chapter 49 The Trap
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
