Chapter 1422

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
Fakes within the antique industry were next to nothing. Since everyone worked in the same industry, even if they were fooled, they would just let it be

Losing money in this line of work only meant that the person wasn’t good enough. Others can’t be blamed.

But hiding a radioactive substance to harm others was the equivalent of alienating yourself within the industry.

Darren’s eyes twitched. A forced smile appeared on his face, as pristine as a white gem.

“Master Naiswell, this must be a mistake! I was the one that brought this here. I even appraised it myself since it has such a good texture. If there was anything wrong with it, I definitely wouldn’t sell it to you…”

“Cut the nonsense!”

Avel immediately cut Darren off.

“We’re all adults here. Let’s just cut to the chase. Since you’re trying to prove that you have no ill-intent, then that’s fine. Swallow this thing whole, then. Not only will I believe you, but I’ll also grovel and apologize to you! I’ll even let Flynn’s Antiques

    The mention of the name confused Harvey.Faye Goddard was quite famous in Hong Kong; throughout the entire Chinese social circle, in fact.She was said to have taken extreme measures. During her time in university, she met a wealthy man in his eighties with just a first-class plane ticket.She was then married into a wealthy family before she even graduated. Her eighty year-old husband passed away when she graduated, and as a result, a huge portion of his assets all landed right into her hands.In Hong Kong’s upper social circle, Faye had the nickname of Black Widow.Her tricks or motives notwithstanding, she had the looks of a goddess. She was living quite a successful life in Hong Kong, Las Vegas, and South Light, and her face constantly showed up in magazines as well.Nobody expected for her to have relations with Flynn’s Antiques.Harvey frowned when he saw Avel’s face changing.Faye had some reputation of appraising antiques, and her nickname was quite frightening. The Nai

    Faye sent Avel a playful smile.“Right, I’ll cut to the chase. You’ve heard of the Four Masters of Hong Kong, haven’t you?”“If you haven’t, then you must’ve heard of the top four families in Hong Kong, no?”Faye now wore a prideful expression.“The top four families are intertwined with each other. The Four Masters ofHong Kong are tied together like brothers!”“You must’ve heard of this phrase before.”The watching crowd’s expression changed slightly at the phrase.Hong Kong isn’t that far behind compared to Buckwood. It was an international metropolis on the same level as Wolsing and Mordu.In Hong Kong, the top four families stood at their peak.Rumors said that even though the families had disputes, they would band together if any of them were to be at war.One top-rated family may not be so terrifying.But if all four top families from Hong Kong were to band together, even the top ten families in Country H would have to fear them.For a place that’s close to Hong Kong

    “According to your words, Princess Goddard, you’re saying that I can’t bring myself justice after you tried to assassinate Prince York and my family?”Avel’s face was ice cold.If it were only him that day, he might’ve just given in.But the legendary Prince York himself was right behind him. Why would Avel recoil in fear?!No matter how powerful the Four Masters of Hong Kong were, this was South Light. This was Buckwood, not Hong Kong!Darren stepped forward with a smile.“Master Naiswell. The more we debate, the more the truth comes out!”“Everyone here is experienced in this line of work. You should understand that misjudging an item is quite normal!”“The way I see it, I misjudged the item, and so did you!”“According to the rules, you should be taking responsibility.”Darren crossed his arms. With Faye’s support, he was unscrupulous and arrogant.Avel snarled, “You really think I wouldn’t dare lay a finger on you because you’re supported by the Four Masters of Hong Kong

    Harvey was calm. “I’m just a small fry, no need to know who I am.”Darren sized up Harvey, then secretly took a picture of Harvey with his phone. Naturally, he was looking for someone to get some information on Harvey.Soon, Darren’s phone rang. He took a few glances at the phone before handing it to Faye.Faye revealed a meaningful smile after looking at the contents. “So, you’re the consultant for the government of Buckwood.”“I heard that the investment and business engagement forum you organized ended up failing. What, are you with Avel now? You’re doing pretty well, making money from the government and the gangsters!”“Right, you’re also the Zimmer family’s live-in son-in-law. So you’re making money there as well!”Faye’s gaze on Harvey was filled with disdain.A woman like her would usually admire wealthy sons and masters.Thus, she wouldn’t bat an eye towards men who climb ranks relying on women and sheer luck.Yet, the live-in son-in-law with a small status that she ha

    Darren froze once more at Harvey’s words, then burst out laughing.“What? So your way of beating us with reason was to buy the entire shop?”“Are you venting, or just simply giving us money?”Before, Faye anticipated Harvey’s next move. She couldn’t help but laugh, and then turned to Harvey with a derisive glare. ‘Venting by buying things? Is this a joke?’‘There are so many things in Flynn’s Antiques, but not a single one of them is truly authentic.’‘Even if Harvey could pick out a few of the authentic items with his brilliant eyes, it wouldn’t mean much for the shop anyways.’‘Besides, picking out actual antiques would be free advertisement for the shop.’‘If Harvey picked out fakes, then that’s his problem.’‘But he seems so young. Does he even have skills to appraise antiques?’Faye wouldn’t believe it. So-called antique appraisers needed years of experience. An ordinary person couldn’t distinguish between high and low imitations, let alone authentic and fake antiques.

    Nobody had ever seen a person buy antiques like this man.Wouldn’t people normally buy antiques only after slowly studying and appraising them?Normally speaking, antique purchasers were usually extremely careful.If they messed up, the losses would be unimaginable.People who buy antiques like Harvey were either rich tycoons, or complete idiots.Faye watched the scene with a disdainful grin. A smile full of disdain leaked out of Faye’s face when she saw the sight.Harvey had already bought a hundred million dollars worth of items. Safe to say, Flynn’s Antiques earned a hefty gain that day.If they advertised the shop properly, Flynn’s Antiques could even make a name for itself!Harvey wasn’t here to tear down the shop at all! Rather, he was here to give them benefits!Soon, Harvey’s shopping finally came to a halt.At this moment, he had about fifty raw stones with him.“Cut every single one of them open.”With a wave of Harvey’s hand, the master faceters started to work s

    Harvey York stood indifferently in the field. However, it terrified and frightened the experts from the world of antiques and treasure appraisal that were present.How could ordinary people do this?Some of the appraisers, who regarded themselves as quite capable, felt humiliated in front of Harvey.Moreover, everyone was extremely excited.Only Faye Goddard and Darren Flynn’s complexions were horrible as if they had screwed themselves.They did not expect that Harvey would be able to do to such an extent!Sweeping away so many treasures in their turf.Although they collected enough money, it was certainly a mere drop in the bucket compared to Harvey’s profit.Harvey slightly raised his hand, gesturing the crowd to be quiet. He then said with a low voice, “Everyone, I’ll tell you one thing. I have selected all those antiques that would show green among the thousands of Flynn’s Antiques.“The rest is either waste or its worth doesn’t match the original cost.“Whether or not to

    Avel Naiswell was utterly convinced by Harvey York at this moment.He trotted over while bringing the antiques that Harvey had just selected, leaned forward, and said, “Brother York, what are you planning to do?”Harvey took a porcelain vase in his hand, pointed at the label indifferently, and said, “Porcelain vase of the Qing Dynasty, priced at seventy-six dollars. It’s indeed a good thing, but…”Crack!There was a crisp sound.Harvey immediately smashed the porcelain vase on the ground.Everyone was slightly taken aback upon seeing this scene. What did this mean?Harvey randomly selected a round base from the pieces of porcelain and said lightly, “But this porcelain itself isn’t valuable. What’s valuable is the thing inside it.”Harvey broke the round base into two while speaking.Suddenly, a hollow space appeared in the base. Something jade-like was hidden inside, but it was not exactly jade.“Consultant York, this is…”Everyone was curious.Everyone could see that this

    Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil

    Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai

    Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas

    "Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi

    Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t

    Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane

    Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some

    It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go

    "No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
