Chapter 557 Just a joke

Lily responded with an "Mmm".

“Furthermore,” Chao Bufan continued, “you should visit these eight cultivation families; they are the families that guard the entrances to the Eight Great Worlds.”

"The Eight Great Worlds?" Huang Mengting was slightly surprised and asked, "Extraordinary, which eight great worlds are you referring to?"

Chao Bufan said, "These eight great worlds are the Demon Realm, the Monster Realm, the God Realm, the Underworld, the Immortal Realm, the Ghost Realm, the Buddha Realm, and the Dragon Realm. Adding our human realm, there are a total of nine great worlds."

"Huh?" Huang Mengting was slightly surprised and said, "These worlds really exist!"

Chao Bufan grunted in agreement and said, "These eight cultivation families each guard the entrance to a spirit realm, and together they guard the entrance to the Black Spirit Realm."

“Extraordinary,” Lily asked, “what is the Black Spirit Realm?”

"Do you know anything about the World Tree?" Chao Bufan asked.

Upon hearing this, Lily said, "I know a little about it."

Huang Mengting said, "I don't know much about it. I just watched a science fiction movie before, which said that the universe is like a tree or something."

Chao Bufan grunted in agreement and said, "The universe is indeed like a tree, with the Nine Great Worlds being the nine branches of the tree, and the so-called Black Spirit Domain being the root. However, apart from our human realm, the other eight Great Worlds have already been destroyed."

"Destroyed?" Huang Mengting asked in surprise.

Chao Bufan said, "Yes, it has been destroyed. Baihe, after you go there, keep an eye on the movements of these spirit realm entrances."

Lily grunted in agreement and said, "I know."

Chao Bufan smiled and then said, "Alright, let's go to sleep!"

In Tang Guoqiang's private villa in District L.

Tang Guoqiang and the others sat on the sofa with Chao Bufan. Tian Yue was also there. Chao Bufan hadn't originally planned to bring him, but the family insisted on sticking to Chao Bufan and came along. So, they had no choice but to let him come along.

“Old Chief,” Chao Bufan said, “I need to trouble you with something.”

The old leader asked, "What is it?"

"Give me a call to the boss and ask if he visited the Lan family in X region two weeks ago, and also, if he wrote me a letter of recommendation," Chao Bufan said.

The old leader asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

“It’s like this,” Chao Bufan said, “Last night I took my women to the Phoenix Food Festival and we ran into the Lan family. She gave me an invitation to visit the Lan family and also gave me a letter from the eldest brother. Could you ask the eldest brother if this is true?”

The old leader nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact the boss right away."

With that, the old commander got up and left.

Old Chu asked, "Bufan, are you familiar with the Lan family?"

Chao Bufan shook his head and said, "Familiar with what? I only found out about it yesterday."

Tang Guoqiang asked, "Why would they invite you to be their guest for no reason? Is there something you need?"

“I don’t know either,” Chao Bufan said. “Only the boss can tell me whether it’s true or false.”

Tang Guoqiang nodded, and the old leader entered at that moment.

“Not ordinary,” the old leader said. “I asked the boss, and he said it was indeed the case. Moreover, it was the boss who asked you to go. The boss said that there are some things you will know once you go there.”

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan was overjoyed, as it meant he could go home to see his long-missed family. He nodded and said, "I understand."

The old leader added, "The boss asked when you're going. Let him know when you go; he needs to talk to you."

“Then let’s do it tomorrow!” Chao Bufan said. “Tell the boss that I’ll be going tomorrow.”

“Okay,” the old commander said, “I’ll tell the boss now.”

Chao Bufan grunted in agreement, then let out a long sigh, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease mixed with intense anticipation. He leaned back on the sofa, staring up at the ceiling. Overwhelmed with excitement, he burst into laughter, leaving Tang Guoqiang and the others completely bewildered. They stared at Chao Bufan, bewildered, no one saying a word, just watching him laugh foolishly.

After chuckling to himself for a while, he thought to himself, "Father, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, are you all alright?"

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something. He thought to himself, "I've been reborn and transmigrated to Earth for more than half a year now. I don't know if the time here is the same as the time there, or if my father and the others are still alive. If... no, absolutely not. My father and the others should still be alive, definitely alive."

Chao Bufan comforted himself for a moment, then let out a long sigh of relief...

Soon, the old leader came in. He was taken aback to see Chao Bufan leaning back on the sofa, smiling foolishly. Just as he was about to speak, Tang Guoqiang quickly gestured for him to be quiet.

Seeing everyone staring at him with strange looks, Chao Bufan asked in surprise, "Old Tang, why are you all looking at me like that?"

The old leader asked, "Bufan, what were you thinking about just now? Why were you smiling like that? Is there some good news?"

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered some pleasant things, so I smiled unnaturally."

Tianyue said, "I knew it! I thought you'd suddenly gone stupid!"

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "Do you think that's possible?"

Tianyue shrugged and said, "How would I know?"

The old leader said, "It's extraordinary. The Chairman said he will go there tomorrow as well."

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan nodded and murmured "Mm."

Tang Guoqiang asked, "Bufan, why didn't Qianqian come with you? Is that 'Overlord Flower' help group too busy?"

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "I had them accompany Yifei home."

The old leader said, "Bu Fan, although they are doing good for society and spreading positive energy, I don't think they need to do this at all."

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan nodded and said, "There's no need to do that. I've already told them to hand over this group of people who are happy to help others to someone else, and they can focus on cultivation from now on."

“It should have been like this a long time ago,” Tang Guoqiang said. “These girls are all young and energetic, full of vitality, but they leave early and return late every day, which makes my heart ache.”

"You're just feeling sorry for Qianqian, aren't you?" Chao Bufan joked.

Upon hearing this, Tang Guoqiang rolled his eyes at Chao Bufan and said reproachfully, "What's wrong with me feeling sorry for Qianqian? She's my daughter, shouldn't I feel sorry for her?"

"Yes, yes," Chao Bufan nodded hurriedly and chuckled, "Old Tang, I was just joking with you, it doesn't have to be like this!"

The old leader smiled and said, "Bufan, we entrusted our daughters to you because you have the ability to protect them and make them happy. It's normal for us to feel sorry for our daughters. You have so many women, we're just worried that you won't treat them all equally."
