All Heavens: Start with Monster Hunter

Chapter 151 Discussion
"Hahahaha, hello."

Before the person arrived, the voice had already come from the door.

Baiyi took big steps and walked from the door to the reception room in just a few steps.

He walked to a chair in a carefree manner, sat down, and naturally leaned back.

He glanced at Sarah briefly, then turned his sharp eyes to Li Qing:
"Ahahahaha, friend."

"Inbas has told me everything."

"Since it was just a misunderstanding, and we are friends now, I will definitely not let you suffer any loss."

Baiyi turned around and told Inbas who was following behind him:
"Remember this. From now on, whenever this brother and lady's ship comes to Iron Water City, the mooring fee will be waived. As long as I am still keeping my word, this rule will not be changed."

"Got it, sir. I'll do it right away."

Inbas bent down and nodded, then quickly agreed.

The smile on Sarah's face became more genuine: "Thank you, Master Bai."

No matter what this Bai's purpose or idea is, Sarah has to be grateful for what she has received. Now that she has received the benefits, she doesn't mind giving him a few more smiles.

There's nothing to lose anyway. If the other party makes excessive demands, the worst that can happen is that I'll just turn against them.

She really didn't believe that any random person could be Li Qing's opponent.

"Hey, this is nothing." Baiyi waved his hand and responded casually. Then he looked at Li Qing again with a slightly burning look in his eyes: "But brother, I heard Inbas say that you are very powerful. You knocked down seven or eight people in an instant?"

Li Qing looked at him, and Baiyi began to explain what he meant:
"Well, brother."

"You can tell from my appearance that I am an impatient person and I like making friends."

"Especially someone as powerful as you."

"So with some offence, can you spar with me?"

Li Qing smiled with an inexplicable meaning and looked straight at the old man Bai.

If he were really an ordinary person, he might really be deceived by this master Bai and think that the other party was just a generous businessman who liked to make friends.

However, when he had already had psychological expectations in advance and understood that the other party was most likely a Black Rose spy, the hidden malice in the heart of this Master Bayi was almost revealed in front of Li Qing.

Li Qing certainly doesn't have any mind-reading abilities, but he has ridiculously high basic attributes.

At this moment, Li Qing could clearly hear the pulse and heartbeat of Baiyi who was sitting on the chair. His perception might be higher than his. Li Qing could even occasionally sense the greed that he unconsciously exuded.

To be honest, Li Qing didn't know what he was planning.

But at least one thing is certain: it will definitely not be a good thing.

Black Rose is not a good person to begin with, and is capable of doing anything disgusting.

However, since this old man Bai did not directly express his malicious intentions, Li Qing did not mind having some fun with him.

Standing up, Li Qing smiled and turned his strong wrists twice, then said to Bayi with a smile:

"Of course you can, but if we accidentally hurt Master Baiyi, he won't blackmail us, right?"

Baiyi also stood up, laughed and casually took off his coat and threw it on the chair.

As the butler, Inbas had quickly moved some tables and chairs in the reception room, leaving a small open space in the middle.

Judging from his skilled look, it seems that this is not the first time he has done this.

"We just had a simple exchange, so don't be too harsh." Master Bai said to Li Qing while moving his arms.

"no problem."

Li Qing nodded, then hooked his finger at him: "Then please come first, Master Bai."

"it is good!!"

Baiyi felt Li Qing's provocation and without any hesitation, he rushed towards Li Qing like a cheetah.

His two hands formed a shape like animal claws and grabbed Li Qing's chest.

"With just this, you are no match for me."

However, this speed, which seems very fast to ordinary people, is really too slow for Li Qing.

A hand appeared silently, blocking Baiyi's way to Li Qing. The finger looked extremely fragile, but it immediately became an obstacle that Baiyi could not break through no matter what.

Just like that, the power released on his chest was so strong that even if Bai used all his strength, he could only hold on for a moment, and then he flew back at a speed faster than when he rushed over.

It crashed against the table and chairs with a loud crash, the vase fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and the Baiyi rolled like a rolling gourd until it hit the wall and stopped.

"master!!"

Inbas, who was watching the show, was startled and quickly ran over to help Bai up.

But just as he ran over, he saw Baiyi rubbing the big red bump on his head and getting up from the ground.

He shook his hand, indicating that Inbas didn't need his help.

Baiyi put his hand down and looked at Li Qing with a depressed look on his face:

"Alright, alright, my friend."

"I thought you were awesome, but I didn't expect you to be this awesome!"

"My level is pretty good. Usually there are few people who can defeat me easily. I didn't expect that I couldn't even deal with one of your fingers."

"If the gap wasn't too big, I could still give it a try. But now that the gap is so big, why would I want to compete with you?"

Baiyi had a speechless expression on his face, but the next second, his expression turned into enthusiasm:
"But the fact that you are so good shows that I have good taste."

“I love being with awesome friends the most.”

"Inbas, go and prepare delicious food and wine. I'm going to host a banquet for these two new friends here today!"

"Okay, sir." Inbas received the order and retreated quickly.

Bai Ze seemed to be in some pain from the fall. He rubbed the big bump on his head and walked to an intact chair and sat down.

Li Qing also casually pulled over a chair and sat down again.

He asked intentionally or unintentionally:
"By the way, Master Bai, there seem to be a lot of paintings in your house."

“Do you like painting?”

Baiyi was stunned, not knowing why Li Qing suddenly brought up this matter, but he still answered casually: "I don't have many hobbies. I like to collect some artworks, and I like to learn from others."

"But just like my fighting skills, I don't have much appreciation for art. Anyway, I have money, so if I see something nice, I'll buy it and hang it in my house."

"Why? If you like any painting, I'll give it to you!"

"Master Bai is really generous." Li Qing smiled and thanked him. He pointed directly to a painting hanging in front of him and said, "I think the one with the black rose is good." "."

"This painting, I almost forgot where it came from."

"Since you want it, then you can take it. It's just a painting of a rose. It has no artistic value. Even if it does, I don't understand it."

Baiyi looked in the direction Li Qing pointed, and Li Qing perceived that his heart beat faster.

But he had very good control over his body, and it only took a few seconds for him to act as if nothing had happened. Only Li Qing could notice it because he focused all his attention on him.

Otherwise, Li Qing would not care about these small changes.

From Kebai's reaction, it can be basically confirmed that he is a member of the Black Rose, but no one knows what his identity is.

For Li Qing, although he knew some things about the Black Rose.

The ones that you know more about are Leblanc, Deceiver, and Vladimir, as well as a few heroes created by Black Rose.

More importantly, it’s about the game.

As for the reality, not much is known about how powerful and capable this organization that secretly controls Noxus is.

Li Qing suddenly thought of the proprietress of the Blue Flame Tavern, Marin. Could that woman also be a member of the Black Rose?

It seems that the woman's style is somewhat similar to Black Rose.

Retracting his chaotic thoughts, Li Qing nodded:
"That's great. I like roses, and this black rose is very touching."

“Dangerous, deadly and dark, as if hiding countless secrets, and like a dangerous woman - well, I think this painting has great artistic value.”

"a ha ha ha!!"

"Really?" Baiyi laughed loudly, without any hesitation, he stood up, quickly walked to the wall, took down the black rose, turned around and handed it to Li Qing: "Since you like it so much, take it now."

"You are really generous, Master Bai. I accept you as my friend." Li Qing said with a faint smile on his face as he took the painting.

"I'd be honored."

Baiyi answered while stroking the moustache on his chin with one hand.

Sarah, who had been silent for a long time, asked at this time:

"Master Bai, I also have something I want to discuss with you, about some business. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Oh? Of course, ma'am, you can tell me what you have to say." Bai turned his head to look at Sarah.

Although he was still very polite, even Sarah could sense that his enthusiasm was not on the same level as Li Qing's.

"This Master Baiyi doesn't like men, does he? I'm so pretty, but he treats me differently?"

Sarah muttered to herself, but she still had a bright smile on her face:
"It's mainly about some ships coming and going. The details are as follows."

Sarah briefly introduced some situations, such as the specialties of Bilgewater or the cooperation that the Ferros family caravan in Piltover would carry out, and based on this, she cooperated with Bayi.

In order to open up a smooth passage on the sea.

The specific situation was discussed between the two people, and Li Qing naturally had no interest in it.

He was leaning back in his chair, carefully examining the oil painting of a black rose in his hand.

As a person who is quite knowledgeable, especially someone who has seen many magical items, Li Qing knew that this was a magical item almost the moment he took the painting in his hands.

After all, as a person who is naturally resistant to magic, especially when his perception attribute reaches a certain level, he can vaguely sense the approach of magical elements.

Being in an environment full of magical elements even makes Li Qing feel a little short of oxygen.

Although it's just a feeling and I'm not really suffering from lack of oxygen, it's still a bit uncomfortable.

Just like the feeling this painting gave Li Qing, ordinary items and magic items are always different.

For example, it seemed that Li Qing had a physique that was resistant to magic. When Li Qing placed his fingers on the rose in the painting, the black rose actually avoided him.

The movement was so slight that even Li Qing thought it was an illusion at first.

After trying it a few times, I found that this was indeed the case.

There is indeed something wrong with the black rose in this painting.

However, Li Qing did not start his research here directly. After all, Bayi was still here, and Li Qing didn't know what the other party's purpose was. There would be no point in alerting the enemy.

He casually put the painting into the ring. Bai, who was originally talking with Sarah about the details of transporting the goods, suddenly paused, turned his head and looked at Li Qing.

What responded to him was naturally Li Qing's sunny smile.

"Have you finished talking, Master Baiyi?" Without giving Baiyi a chance to speak, Li Qing said directly, "Didn't you say that we're going to have dinner? When will it start?"

"Oh oh oh, right away, right away."

Baiyi was stunned for a moment, but he reacted immediately, quickly agreed, and shouted to Inbas outside:
"Inbas, is the food ready? The guests are hungry."

A head popped in from the door: "It's ready, sir."

"Okay, I understand."

Baiyi nodded, turned around and ended the conversation with Sarah:

"You two, let's talk about this first. The food is ready. I hired my chef at a high price. His skills are definitely very high."

"Please, my two distinguished guests, come with me to have dinner first."

Standing up, Baiyi made an inviting gesture.

He signaled Li Qing and Sarah to follow him.

Li Qing and Sarah looked at each other, stood up and followed.

Baiyi walked in front, and Sarah took advantage of this brief moment to get close to Li Qing and whispered:

"Is there any secret in the painting you want?"

Li Qing glanced at her, raised his eyebrows slightly towards the Bayi in front of him, and said with a smile:

"What secrets can a painting have? How is your discussion with Baiyi going?"

Sarah noticed what Li Qing meant, and she was thoughtful, but her face remained unchanged as she said, "Not bad, we have already discussed the next steps, but I still don't have many people who can do the job."

"Besides, it will take time to contact the Ferros family, and we have to deal with Gangplank in Bilgewater first."

"But the Baiyi has already agreed to help us get a batch of goods when we return."

Sarah looked at Li Qing:

"So when we get back, it should be time for you to take action, right?"
