145: Chapter 145 Hidden Weapons

"How many pieces of the Jade Guanyin's body have you found now?"

"Why are you asking this?"

Li Qingluo looked confused, yet she was extremely anxious.

"What time is it now? You're still asking about this. Hurry up and think of a way to save Sister Yafei's mother."

"Don't worry about that. Just tell me how many clues you've found regarding the body of the Mingtang Jade Guanyin."

"Regarding the Mingtang Jade Guanyin, I told my father. Through my father's connections, I've found a total of eight clues from both home and abroad."

"Can those eight body fragments all be bought at once right now?"

Li Qingluo looked troubled. "It's possible, but their asking prices are too high because they all know the head of this Jade Guanyin is currently in my hands."

Hearing this, Zhao Feiyu was overjoyed and immediately instructed, "Listen to me. No matter how much they ask, buy all eight fragments back immediately. I will pay for all of it."

"Ah, why?"

Li Qingluo was full of doubt.

"Their asking prices are 20% higher than I expected. For eight pieces, we would have to spend an extra several billion."

"Don't worry about that now. Calculate how much those eight fragments will cost in total. I'll transfer the money to you right now, and you send it to them immediately."

Seeing Zhao Feiyu's solemn and incredibly serious expression, Li Qingluo nodded and immediately took out her phone to make the calls.

About ten minutes later, Li Qingluo had negotiated the prices with all of them.

"Brother Feiyu, I've negotiated the prices. The total for the eight fragments comes to 85 billion."

"Good. I'll transfer the money to you right now, and you can transfer it to them individually."

Although Li Qingluo was very confused, she did not oppose Zhao Feiyu's actions.

Because she believed that Zhao Feiyu must have his reasons for doing this.

After Li Qingluo transferred all the money, Zhao Feiyu received a system notification.

[Spending successful. 100x cashback: 8.5 trillion.]

[Random skill or item cashback triggered. Cancel monetary cashback and choose skill or item cashback instead?]

"Yes."

Zhao Feiyu said impatiently.

[Please choose skill cashback or item cashback.]

"Skill cashback."

[Cashback successful. Congratulations, you have obtained the Low-Grade Mysterious Tier skill: Proficiency in Hidden Weapons.]

Hearing this, Zhao Feiyu was overjoyed and immediately began checking the skill's attributes.

[Skill: Proficiency in Hidden Weapons]

[Rank: Low-Grade Mysterious Tier]

[Proficiency: 0/100]

[Effect: Mastery in the use of all Hidden Weapons. The higher the proficiency, the further the range and the greater the power. Initial range is 100 meters.]

...

"Heaven is truly helping me!"

Zhao Feiyu was incredibly excited.

This skill came at just the right time.

With this skill, he could make up for his weakness in long-range attacks.

When the time comes, he would have Mighty Vajra Palm for close combat, Proficiency in Hidden Weapons for long range, and Xuan Yu Vajra Art for defense.

In today's society, the weapons with the strongest offensive power are undoubtedly firearms.

However, the control over such things is far too strict.

There are massive restrictions regardless of the occasion.

But if he mastered the ability of Proficiency in Hidden Weapons, anything around him could be transformed into a hidden weapon and launched with lethal effect.

With this skill, Zhao Feiyu would have a significant safety guarantee when venturing into the Yu Family Fishing Village alone.

By the time he finished these things, it was already past midnight.

But at this moment, everyone was still gathered at Haixin Island and had not left.

Seeing this, Zhao Feiyu couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart.

These were friends in the truest sense; they were already more like family.

Unlike Zhang Baiyu, who only viewed relationships and connections from the perspective of self-interest.

"Regarding tomorrow's matters, I have made proper preparations."

Zhao Feiyu smiled slightly, acting very naturally.

Seeing this, even Li Qingluo, who was standing to the side, was a bit dazed.

"How are you already prepared? Weren't you just busy buying the Guanyin fragments for me all afternoon?"

Of course, although Li Qingluo had her doubts, she didn't voice them.

"Tomorrow, I will go to the Yu Family Fishing Village alone. I'll have Sister Lang lead all the security personnel to wait outside the village."

Zhao Feiyu glanced at Sister Lang and continued.

"If I haven't come out within an hour, Sister Lang will lead her people to force their way in."

"Is that really okay?"

Zhang Yafei said, still somewhat worried.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Zhao Feiyu gently pulled Zhang Yafei into his arms to comfort her.

"Don't forget, I am a legendary Ancient Martial Artist."

"Last time at the Jiaxing Hotel, even the three generations of the Ma Family from the provincial capital couldn't kill me when they tried."

Hearing this, everyone finally felt a bit more confident.

Since there was no better way, they could only proceed according to Zhao Feiyu's plan.

Early the next morning, Zhao Feiyu had someone bring many different types of Hidden Weapons.

There were dozens of types, including Willow Leaf Darts, Coin Darts, flying swords, flying knives, and so on.

He casually picked up a flying knife and held it in his hand.

A sense of familiarity welled up within him.

Holding these things, it felt as if he had practiced with them for decades.

Looking at the distant target, Zhao Feiyu flicked his wrist and threw it.

Ding ding ding!!!

30 meters, 50 meters, 80 meters, 100 meters—all the flying knives accurately hit the bullseye.

Moreover, the knives were embedded deep into the wood, showing immense power.

And this was with Zhao Feiyu using only thirty percent of his strength.

If he used his full strength, the flying knives would likely pierce right through a wooden bullseye several dozen centimeters thick.

Afterward, Zhao Feiyu switched to several other types of Hidden Weapons and found that his proficiency in using them was exactly the same.

After practicing for several dozen minutes, Zhao Feiyu unexpectedly discovered that if he paired the use of Hidden Weapons with his Golden Pupils...

...then the accuracy would be greatly improved.

Furthermore, Zhao Feiyu discovered that since becoming an Ancient Martial Artist, the use of his Golden Pupils no longer relied on his Spiritual Power, but on the inner strength generated by the circulation of the Xuan Yu Vajra Art.

"The combination of Golden Pupils and Proficiency in Hidden Weapons is simply a perfect match!"

Zhao Feiyu marveled inwardly and then increased the difficulty.

He then replaced all the wooden targets with silicone simulation dummies.

He also placed obstacles made of different materials in front of these dummies.

This way, Zhao Feiyu could no longer see the dummies behind them.

Since he couldn't see the positions of the dummies behind the obstacles, Zhao Feiyu focused his gaze and used his Golden Pupils. He instantly saw where all the dummies were located and then launched the Hidden Weapons with a wave of his hand.

In the next moment, all the Hidden Weapons penetrated the obstacles and accurately hit the dummies' foreheads.

After a morning of practice, Zhao Feiyu was surprised to find that his proficiency in Proficiency in Hidden Weapons had actually broken through to the second level.

Upon reaching the second level of Proficiency in Hidden Weapons, both its power and range had increased.

However, Zhao Feiyu suddenly considered a problem.

After entering the Yu Family Fishing Village, Fish Shark's people would definitely search him.

So, he certainly wouldn't be able to bring these Hidden Weapons inside.

Just then, a short-video blogger came to Zhao Feiyu's mind.

This blogger would post hidden weapon videos to gain traffic.

In the videos, he would use anything as a hidden weapon and launch it to hit a target.

These Hidden Weapons could be machine parts, or common leaves, wood, stones, and so on.

Even some food items, like potato chips, biscuits, or chocolate, could be used as Hidden Weapons.

Thinking of this, Zhao Feiyu immediately thought of the antiques placed in the Zhengyang Hall.

In today's society, who doesn't carry some antiques like prayer beads or bracelets?

Not to mention, he was in that business.

Carrying these items on him would definitely not arouse suspicion.

With that in mind, Zhao Feiyu immediately asked Li Qingluo to find some inexpensive accessories.

However, these items had to be somewhat hard or sharp objects carved from certain animal teeth.

That way, their power could be guaranteed.
