Chapter 52
Darryl headed to Pearl Pavilion after he got off the phone. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a massive crowd in front of Pearl Pavilion. The onlookers seemed to have been drawn into the excitement.When Darryl walked in, he saw the owners of the antique stores next door were in a heated discussion. "This must be a counterfeit!""Yes, it does look like a fake one!"When Darryl walked past the crowd and into the store, he saw a bald man in front of the counter with a colorful porcelain vase in his arms. It looked like he wanted to sell the vase and the people around him doubted the authenticity of the item.The people in front of the bald man were Yvonne Young, Peter Williams, and another middle-aged man.The middle-aged man wore traditional Chinese attire and a pair of glasses; he had the image of a master. He was Yvonne's father, Kingston Young. He was also the head of the Young family, the most famous antique dealer in Donghai City! Kingston stared at the vase.There

Elsa Lyndon furrowed her brows as she stood at the side. Even though she seldom talked to Darryl, she was still a member of the Lyndon Family. If Darryl were to make a fool of himself, would she not be embarrassed as well?When Kingston realized the identity of that young man, and after a brief moment of stupor, he said, "Aren't you the Lyndon family's son-in-law?"Before he could continue, Yvonne interrupted softly, "Dad, he is the honorary antique appraiser I hired!"'What?!'Everyone tried to stifle their giggles. 'What? He is a reputable antique appraiser? More like famous trash. The Lyndon family can't wait to get rid of him because he is useless! And Yvonne made him the honorary antique appraiser? That's funny!'Kingston sighed as he stared at Darryl. Then he nodded and did not say anything else.The Young family's properties had fallen under the management of Yvonne Young. She had done an excellent job. 'Since my daughter hired this young man, I guess he must be a talent

Kingston took a deep breath; his expression also looked hideous. He turned around and whispered to Yvonne, "Is this the honorary antique appraiser you hired? For 50,000 bucks a month?"'Even if our family has the money, that is no need to spend in such a reckless manner.'Yvonne said nothing; a trace of shame flashed in her eyes.The bald man laughed as though he had met his confidante; he patted Darryl's shoulder and said, "This brother is indeed knowledgeable!"Darryl merely smiled.Kingston stared at Darryl sternly and said coldly, "Tell me. How is this thing worth 500,000 bucks?"'No, it is worth more than that! It's worth more than five million bucks! You will make a lot of money if you buy it.' Darryl thought to himself. Then, he cleared his throat and said slowly, "Uncle Young, don't be anxious. I'll explain it to you. Uncle Young knows about Princess Wencheng, right?"Kingston was a little impatient. When he heard the name, he was suddenly reminded of something, and hi

Yvonne and Lily felt weak around their knees. They were shocked! 'Could he really tell if the vase was an antique?'The look of ecstasy on Kingston's face had utterly removed their doubts. "Hey, after such a long discussion, do you want to do this or not?"The bald man got a little impatient.Darryl smiled stealthily.'This guy must be a layman. He brought a priceless treasure to Pearl Pavilion, but he is only asking for only half a million bucks!'When he thought about the mud residue at the bottom of the porcelain vase, Darryl was confident that the vase had just been dug out from somewhere. 'This bald man seems mysterious. Where did he get this vase?' Darryl frowned as he thought to himself. "Yes! I'll buy it!"Kingston repeatedly nodded as if he was afraid that the bald man would regret his decision.Then, Kingston turned around and urged Peter Williams. "Quick, pay this gentleman."After that, he carefully picked up the porcelain vase and told Yvonne to bring a box t

'So, they dug the Xueyan Promenade Vase from here. It looks like this graveyard has some secrets.' 'Then again, those men do not seem to be digging with care. What if they destroy the cultural relics? Those were treasures left by our ancestors! What should I do?'When Darryl about his next step, he heard the bearded man yelled angrily, "Who is it? Why are you sneaking around there? Come out now!"Darryl was shocked.'Damn it! He saw me!'Darryl was about to walk out from behind the tree when he saw the bearded man pull a gloomy face and walked straight to another tree about ten meters away."How dare you raid the graves! This is a criminal offense. You guys should stop!"Before the bearded man got to the tree, a soft voice emerged from behind the tree.Phew! Darryl thought he had been exposed.Darryl sighed in relief when he heard the soft and charming voice. Then, he saw a gentle and sexy figure walked out from behind the tree.Darryl was stunned.Her delicate face was c

"Don't freak out, Beautiful. Don't worry; it's not poison. It's Weak Bones Elixir. It will only weaken you." The bearded man smiled menacingly.Megan was struck in a stupor, and she was at a loss for words.'Weak Bones Elixir?''What a mess!'Darryl scowled. The bearded man must have been a mental patient who had just escaped the mental hospital and talked gibberish."Hey, brat! Did you f*cking follow me? What the hell do you want? I sell vases, and you paid for them. Why did you follow me?" The bald man and his group gathered around Darryl and asked him fiercely."I was the only one who thought that your vase was valuable. Don't you want to thank me for that?" Darryl pretended to sigh before he walked closer to them step by step.Darryl was a little nervous. He learned Wing Chun Kung Fu from a Wing Chun master for a year before, but Darryl was not sure about sparring against so many people.Therefore, Darryl needed to find a way to get the other party to let down their guard.

The second half of the book was about Yang Feng Shui, which described the Yang House's selection, the house of the living.Regardless of the Yin House or the Yang House, there were many detailed descriptions and even more specific illustrations. "F*ck, isn't this house similar to mine?" Darryl was shocked when he saw one of the pictures in the book. Then, he read the detailed explanation on the next page. [This layout lacks water gathering elements, and it affects the living who stays within, making their lives difficult.]Darryl finally saw the light.No wonder Lily Lyndon's family was in a time of tribulation. Lily's company was always short of funds. It turned out that it was not human error, but the terrible Feng Shui layout of the residence.Darryl was about to read further to find the solution. Suddenly, Megan's weak voice came within his earshot. "Darryl, have you found the antidote?"Darryl was startled, and without thinking, he took the two books. Then, he walked out

"Are you playing dumb?" Megan frowned as she studied Darryl.'Why did he not answer me but asked me a question in return?'"What did you use to defeat those imbeciles just now?"Darryl rubbed his nose. "That was nothing. I've practiced Wing Chun for a while now.""That's not true!"Megan shook her head firmly. "Your arms moved so widely when you struck just now. That was not Wing Chun."Darryl was speechless.Megan was right. She had taught herself Wing Chun, but she found it useless; it was only a trick for street fights.Darryl shook his head. "What sect of Wing Chun were you talking about? What is going on?""Don't you know?" Megan was still suspicious.When she noticed that Darryl did not pretend to be confused, Megan sighed softly and said, "There are six main sects of Kung Fu. Don't you know?"Megan continued as Darryl did not respond, "There are six sects of Kung Fu, namely Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, Kunlun, Tianshan, and Xiaoyao. Each sect has its own style of cultivatio
