Fang Li calmed himself down from his predicament, he told himself that it wouldn't be his last kill and that he would have to do it again, so facing the bowing girl, he couldn't help but bring her up and ask about what was going on.

"I went out to find some herbs but we encountered a group of bandits" Ling Tong said while sobbing, recounting her experience slowly, she went out of her village in the morning with Granny Tzuki cat, apparently her and the cat are very close, it was the cat who alerted Ling Tong from the danger which made her get a head start in running away.

The cat lured away the other bandits by stealing something of theirs, Ling Tong described the thing as a treasured white flower that glows and sparkles, it must have been recently plucked by the bandits, and also it was unfortunate as one bandit went after the girl, but luckily, she ran into Fang Li who in turn saved her.

"Are you able to run back to the village and alert them?" Fang said towards the girl slowly.

"You are not thinking about going after them, there is too many!" She said in confusion, but she saw that he wasn't denying it, so she got more restless.

"It's ok, you saw what I did just then, I'm only taking out the trash, it should be fine" He said confidently, but inwardly he thought, 'finding a cat just got more troublesome...'

"Ok, I can safely make my way towards the village since the cat lured the other bandits away, but if you get into trouble, you should run" She said with care, Fang Li just nodded at that statement and started to walk ahead to the direction she came from.

She turned to see the back of her saviour before sighing, she then turned towards the direction of the village and ran that way without pause.

Fang Li then started to rush with urgency, but then realised the mission didn't state whether to find the cat dead or alive, but if he found it dead, then Granny Tzuki would go berserk, the number of cultivators residing in that village can be counted on one hand, Granny Tzuki is one of them, her strength is unknown.

Usually once someone finds out they have talent for cultivation, they leave the Rusty Leaf Empire and move into a better area as to continue their journey to immortality, but very rarely do people stay behind in this desolate area, Granny Tzuki is one of them, when she was young, felt she had a duty to stay behind and protect the weak village, and has done just that for many years, no bandit dare to go rob the place, but they do hang around on the outside.

After running for around 25 minutes, he paused as he heard some sound in the distance, quietly hiding behind a tree he saw that there are three bandits all surrounding a tree, one of them was hacking at the trunk with a sword, trying to cut it down while the other two were throwing rocks at something.

Fang Li saw that hiding up high in the tree was the cat, it was firmly standing tall on all four paws, the cat was carrying the special flower inside its mouth while dodging the rocks that were thrown at it with ease, the bandits got more annoyed and restless.

"Where is Butch at? He should be done with that girl already" One of the bandit said roughly.

'Butch should be the one I killed?' Fang Li thought before slowly making his way over, he could hear the conversation between them easily, he also heard that they had a boss, and that they were going to deliver that flower to him. Luckily two of them were unarmed, the only one with a weapon was the one hacking at the tree trunk.

Swooooosh

"Ahhhhhh!" One of the bandit screamed in pain as a kunai was sticking out of his shoulders, the other bandits paused in confusion for a few short seconds before they heard something else.

"Dynaaaaamic Entreeeeee!" Fang Li shouted while rushing out in his full speed, jumping at the wounded bandit before kicking out, his kick connected to the man’s face smoothly, the kick was strong enough to knock him out cold. The other two bandits recovered from their stupor before rushing out.

Fang Li quickly went towards the knocked-out bandit, taking the kunai back, he then slashed the neck of that bandit, he didn't want to do it, but he didn't want any extra burden in case that bandit woke up unexpectedly, he told himself that since they are people that would kill a little girl, they deserve death.

Though Fang Li, because of its simplicity is able to use D- Rank Dynamic Entry, he isn't able to use Leaf Whirlwind as his speed and precision in kicks are not yet good enough, what more is his hand to hand combat skill is worse than an academy student, he had no time to hone his fighting skill and can only rely on what he has already practiced.

The one with the sword was too slow, so the other bandit reached the boy first, this is what Fang Li wanted, he then began to weave some signs, switching place with a rock behind the rushing bandit, who was now very confused.

A kunai could be seen at the back of the head of the now dead bandit, he fell down lifelessly with endless regret, Fang Li is now able to body switch accurately after getting the hang of the jutsu after using it plenty of times, but he was far from mastering the body replacement technique.

The last bandit dropped his sword in a panic before running off into the distance, he was too far away now and although Fang Li is a little faster than him, he still didn't chase, or more likely he couldn't as he collapsed onto the ground in pain, the sound of his stomach was rumbling.

He was very hungry, the food pill effects wore off just at that moment, but now the bandit was long gone and even if he had thrown the kunai towards him, he would had missed.

Sitting down on the ground, with now 45 Shinobi Points he was able to buy himself some food, directly spending 5 points on a ramen pot, not just any ramen but the one from the store called, Ramen Ichiraku, which is where Naruto usually could be spotted at, this store has been around for such a long time, it’s even the place where Naruto and Hinata had their first date, this name roughly translates into "Ramen is the Best Pleasure" which Fang Li wholeheartedly agree in while swallowing down the dish rapidly. As he was eating, he thought that killing the bandits were too easy, but it must be because they were normal humans, and he was level 2 in both Human Qi and Body realm.

Meooowh

The cat jumped down from the tree while standing a small distant away from Fang Li, the cat couldn't help but drool at the smell of the food, dropping the flower to the ground it slowly walked up to him to beg. Fang Li couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"You want some of this?" He asked, but he didn't expect to get a reply, the cat nodded towards him, it was intelligent.

Fang Li was feeling generous so he ordered another dish, which then appeared in front of him, he pushed the ramen pot towards the cat while eating his own, the cat then slowly began to move closer, once it made it to the dish, the cat face lit up, its expression was almost human-like as it enjoy sucking up noodle strings and licking the broth.

The kitty cat was totally relaxed, Fang Li couldn't help but sigh as he reached out his hand slowly, and petted the soft kitty’s fur slowly.
