Chapter 1248 - 551: Perhaps There Really Is a Legend of Him in the Jianghu

Chapter 1248: Chapter 551: Perhaps There Really Is a Legend of Him in the Jianghu

Because the firecrackers are safe enough for children to play with alone, although they were thrown directly onto Bai Bufan’s clothes, they actually didn’t cause him any harm. The marks left on his clothes can be easily brushed away with a few pats.

But low in damage, high in insult.

Bai Bufan looked at the broken firecracker paper on the ground, momentarily unable to react, just staring with wide eyes.

Several seconds later, he came to his senses, incredulously lifted his head to look forward.

Just then, the Demon Child lit another small firecracker and fiercely threw it at the two of them again.

This time it leaned more towards Lin Li’s direction.

But fortunately, Lin Li reacted quickly, locked onto the target, and with a sweep of his arm successfully redirected the firecracker, causing it to hit Bai Bufan again and explode.

Bai Bufan: "...?"

Couldn’t you obviously smack it back?

An immortal chance to encounter two Demon Children within a mere minute, how could I?

But right now Bai Bufan didn’t have the time to debate ’betrayal’ with Lin Li. He blinked, looking incredulously at the boy before them who struck twice: "What does this mean?"

"Tell my parents I’m not a wuss!"

The little boy issued his declaration of war:

"I’m definitely not a useless guy who only dares to bomb small animals weaker than me and that can’t fight back. I’m very capable! I dare to bomb both of you! Nyah nyah nyah!"

Bai Bufan laughed.

What a teachable child.

This clearly is not an ordinary Demon; heavy fists are necessary.

Just as Bai Bufan was ready to bare his teeth, Lin Li’s hand pressed onto his shoulder.

"Bufan, let me try to reform him first."

Lin Li’s calm voice sounded as he stepped forward, looking at the child and pointing at Bai Bufan: "If I allow you to bomb this big brother freely, can you promise me not to harm those innocent cats and dogs any more? They’re innocent and weak, shouldn’t be bullied, and what you did in this matter is absolutely wrong."

Bai Bufan: "O.o?"

What the heck is Lin Li rambling about?

What do you mean only they are innocent, aren’t I innocent too? Is bombing me absolutely right?

Hey damn, why are you animal lovers so bad.

Bai Bufan couldn’t help but think of the debate topic that was popular for a while—’If a museum catches fire, do you save the famous painting or the little cat first’.

Before today, Bai Bufan’s answer was—"Listen to the cat’s wail, appreciate the burning painting, and criticize the crowd for not rescuing."

But after today, Bai Bufan, who turned blackened, would answer—"Harshly listen to the cat’s wail, harshly appreciate the burning painting, harshly criticize the crowd for not rescuing."

Lin Li gazed at the child.

The task only requires me to safeguard the Spirit Beast, although Bufan is also one, he’s already transformed and doesn’t need my protection.

The progress hasn’t increased yet, so Lin Li is attempting to offer Bufan as a sacrifice.

"Bomb it, bomb it! I’m going to bomb! Don’t mind me!"

But evidently, this did not gain the child’s understanding. The other side not only made a face at Lin Li but then started a DJ-style taunt.

Frankly, Lin Li quite understood why the experienced folks viewed the internet as a flood beast, only poisoning children.

Because sometimes, hearing some primary school initial accounts, not even in school yet, having started wildly spewing internet slang, worn-out memes, and curses, Lin Li felt his feudal and conservative consciousness rekindling inside him.

Damn, no idea which fool equated "Fu" with "Bi," leading to a reconstruction of language, making these few days’ outings even hear those little kids using bizarre words with "Fu" on doors, asking if they’ve collected all five "Fu" with Alipay.

Whichever "Fu" in that tone, no need for further explanation.

"Sigh, Bufan, go ahead, bite him." Lin Li shook his head, stepped back, since reason falls on deaf ears, he can only unleash the dogs.

"Since it’s like this, then don’t blame me for being rude!" Bai Bufan yelled, then made a move to go forward and grab the little brat’s collar:

"Brat! Haven’t your parents taught you to respect others? Not learning good things at such a young age!"

How to handle a bear child potentially without parental teaching?

Very simple, I’ll be the parent, isn’t it?

Today, Bai Bufan steps into the celestial phenomenon, two steps into the earthly Immortal!

Today, I, Bai Bufan, invite the little ancestor to meet his end!

However, not only wasn’t the boy afraid, he even stepped back, making an extremely exaggerated face, sharply provoking: "Come on, come on! Can’t catch me! Nyah nyah nyah—"

Before he finished speaking, he quickly pulled out two or three firecrackers from his pocket, lit them without looking and randomly threw them towards Lin Li and Bai Bufan’s direction.

"Bang! Bang!"

The firecrackers exploded at Bai Bufan’s foot, Bai Bufan’s pant leg, and Lin Li’s fellow Bai Bufan’s body, still completely harmless, pure insult.

"Hey! Vile beast! Don’t run!"

Bai Bufan was thoroughly enraged, the sleeping lion in his eyes woke up, he raised his foot to chase.

The little boy had already turned, darting like a startled rabbit towards the other end of the housing complex, running furiously while looking back, maliciously and smugly shouting:

"You two fools! See how you’ll find me after I hide! After you leave, I’ll keep bombing! Blow up that stinky cat! Hahaha!"

It’s already irrelevant to whether it’s about a cat or not, actually, the cat had already slipped away earlier.

But this kid really does need a heavy hand.

Bai Bufan powered his steps intending to catch up and impose physical punishment, but Lin Li once again pressed down on his shoulder.
