Rescuing the Distressed, Saving the Needy: Young Hero Li; Master Han Fell into Deep Thought

"My... my leg?"

Tie Qi's legs were itchy, as if a thousand ants were biting his body.

However, he felt no pain; instead, he stared blankly, as if afraid it was an illusion.

Bones sprouted from his empty legs, and veins and flesh quickly grew from those bones.

All of this feels like a dream.

But that pain was a clear reminder that it was real.

Tie Qi suddenly remembered.

Last night, while drinking with this young man, he mentioned that he had a way to cure him and enable him to walk again.

He assumed at the time that the young man was just a lightweight and had taken on too much responsibility after drinking too much.

But...

"He didn't say a word, Old Tie, you're tough."

Li Mo silently gave him a thumbs up in her heart.

"Brother Li, this is..." Tie Qi's throat was dry.

"Earth-Melting Body-Mending Pill"

Li Mo answered casually.

These few words stirred up a storm in Tie Qi's heart.

He was focused on recovering from his disability, so he naturally knew that the Earth-Melting Body-Mending Pill was a elixir made by adding many rare and precious ingredients to the Body-Melting Grass.

In fact, even if he found the Body-Melting Grass, he didn't know how long it would take to save enough for other rare treasures and the expenses of hiring Alchemist.

The effect is so good, the number of patterns on that pill must be quite high...

And just like that, without his knowledge, he swallowed the pill in a dramatic way.

"Brother Li, I don't know how I can repay you for such a precious elixir..."

"Old Tie, you don't seem like the kind of person who's that dramatic."

Li Mo waved his hand and then teased:

"You weren't like this last night after drinking."

The two didn't spend much time together.

But he felt that Old Tie was a straightforward and generous person, someone worth befriending.

Moreover, Li Mo himself didn't suffer any losses; in fact, he made a huge profit.

"..."

Tie Qi stood up, his lips twitching, his tiger-like eyes filled with tears:

"I am deeply grateful for your kindness. If Brother Li ever needs anything in the future, I will go through fire and water for you."

"It's alright, let's deal with the immediate problem first."

Li Mo pointed to a spot not far away.

After the Karmic Fire burned the Tree Demon King to ashes, the dark mass of tree demons began to stir again.

It's unclear whether it's due to a lack of intelligence or a belief that the flames from before won't reappear.

"Um!"

Tie Qi nodded vigorously, wiping away the first tears he had ever shed in his life:

"Brother Li, could you move over a bit?"

"Hmm? No need, I'm not that weak, there's no need to hide to the side."

"No, you stepped on the handle of my halberd."

"..."

All right.

In reality, the two didn't end up fighting side by side.

Tie Qi charged forward alone, wielding his halberd, displaying a sense of triumph and liberation, as if he had broken through all obstacles and seen the light of day.

After being disabled for so many years, he deserves to vent his frustrations.

Li Mo watched quietly from the side, letting him charge through the horde of tree demons.

There was an unexpected bonus.

Tie Qi broke through his cultivation level during the battle.

As for the Beast Token dropped by the tree spirits, Tie Qi stuffed them all into Li Mo's hands.

He has already achieved his goal for this trip, and even far exceeded his expectations, so naturally he has no reason to be among the top performers.

"That Ice Block killed him way too fast."

Li Mo looked up at the sky and clicked his tongue in disapproval.

The rankings above the Sky Screen have changed considerably.

He slew the Bone Beast along the way, and with Tie Qi's gift, he now has a total of 70 Beast Token, and has now risen to second place.

Ice Block...118 pieces, far ahead.

These are over a hundred pigs; it'll take quite a while to slaughter them, won't it?

Um...

If it were a hammer, Little Li might not be any slower.

But it's not necessary; being in the top fifty is enough.

"Brother Li, where are you planning to go next?"

Tie Qi had an expression that showed he completely followed Ma's lead.

"Wait a minute."

Li Mo then pulled out his notebook.

He checked the box next to Tie Qi's name, then looked at the next place he needed to go and quickly planned his route.

His investment strategy focuses on primary targets, while secondary targets are secondary targets acquired along the way.

Bad guy?

Even bad people deserve help; investments should be made where necessary.

But as the saying goes, if you're going to help someone, help them all the way; if you're going to help a Buddha, help him all the way to the Western Paradise. Aren't those vicious and wicked people quite likely to become Buddhas?

Little Li finishes taking advantage of the situation, he will kindly send them off to their final resting place.

The two continued on their way.

"I deeply regret my actions! This place is far too dangerous. Am I, Falling Leaf Palm, destined to perish here today...?"

"Demon, take this!"

"Demon, eat my halberd!"

"You are... Disciple Li, Brother Tie?"

One person was surrounded by a swarm of Bone Snake.

Two people descended from the sky and rescued him.

"Yao Beiqing! You bask in the glory of the White Horse Swordsman, yet you dare to ambush your friend and steal his Beast Token!"

"In the secret realm, who would know it was me? I'm still the great hero!"

I misjudged you!

"To be honest, I've had my eye on your wife for a long time. I'll then pretend to be a close friend and take care of her, then marry her right away, and even beat your child, hehehe..."

The two descended from the sky.

"The hypocrite ate me..."

"Wait, there's no rush."

Li Mo gave a healing pill to the person who had just let out a strange laugh and attacked his friend, and also helped heal the villain's wounds.

Having just finished healing his wounds, he sent his opponent to their death with another sword strike.

Tie Qi and the man who was rescued were dumbfounded.

Are you... a living Buddha or a living Yama?

I don't really understand, anyway...

This is outrageously extravagant!

The above are just two excerpts.

In fact, Li Mo, along with Tie Qi, transformed into Judge of the secret realm, upholding justice and doing far more than that.

Of course, those truly heinous villains who absolutely must be killed are actually in the minority.

Those who navigate the complexities of life in the martial arts world don't see things in black and white.

Most of those who survived the ordeal lost the will to continue exploring the secret realm, for it is only after experiencing life and death that one truly understands a principle.

Being alive is more important than anything else.

Moreover, the danger of this secret realm far exceeded their imagination.

Many who heeded the advice went to a safe place to hide, following Little Li's directions.

Hmm... it's that Tree Demon Forest where there are no more tree spirits anymore.

After meeting each other, some surprise was inevitable.

"You were... saved by Young Hero Li?"

"The same to you?"

"What a coincidence, me too."

"So... everyone here owes a debt of gratitude to Young Hero Li for saving our lives?"

"He not only saved my life, but also saw that I was born a eunuch and gave me a Black Tiger Virility Pill. He's practically my second father!"

"Ah..."

"Yes! If it weren't for Young Hero Li, my son would have had to change his surname!"

The rescued people looked at each other, speechless, their hearts filled with emotion.

Young Hero Li, I'm really heartbroken.

What a person of noble character and integrity!

No, it can no longer be described as mere lofty character.

He is the embodiment of justice!

Some people are already discussing building a shrine and temple for Young Hero Li after they leave.

"It's not that we can't afford to worship Buddha, but rather that worshipping Young Hero Li is more cost-effective!"

"Yes! He really steps up when there's trouble! He really helps when there's a problem!"

"From now on, if anyone opposes Young Hero Li, I will be his sworn enemy!"

"If a villain opposes Young Hero Li, it means that person is utterly wicked, and Young Hero Li did a good job killing him!"

"If a good person opposes Young Hero Li, it proves that person is a hypocrite! Young Hero Li did well to kill him!"

As more and more people are rescued.

The rhythm seems to have gotten a little strange.

That's not the point.

Most importantly, the atmosphere throughout the entire secret realm has become harmonious and friendly.

On the other side.

Deep within the secret realm.

Clad in blood-stained clothes, the ever-wise and unfathomable Master Han fell into deep thought.

As he expected.

The secret realm should be a scene of bloodshed and carnage right now.

But...

"How come only so few people died?"
