Chapter 132 You can't just call someone "Dad" randomly.
Upon hearing this, Lü Tie and the others shook their heads in unison and replied, "We don't know."
Chao Bufan smiled and asked, "Let me ask you, do you want to transform from an ordinary mortal into a cultivator?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Tie and the others' eyes lit up, and Da Zui asked, "Bu Fan, can we do it?"
Chao Bufan smiled slightly, and Lü Tie quickly asked, "Bufan, what are the benefits of cultivating immortality?"
"Benefits? How can I explain that in a short time? But I can tell you definitively that any cultivator will have a constitution that is different from that of an ordinary person, and their lifespan will be much longer than that of an ordinary person." Chao Bufan spoke the truth.
"I've read a lot of fantasy novels, and they all say that once a cultivator reaches that extraordinary level of cultivation, they can attain immortality. Is that true?" Guan Gong asked.
“Of course it’s true, but—” Chao Bufan answered with certainty, “it’s not an easy thing to attain immortality; you need the right time, the right place, and the right people.”
After he finished speaking, Lü Tie and the others exchanged glances. Lü Tie asked somewhat uncertainly, "Bufan, are you really willing to teach us cultivation?"
"If you're willing, I think I can teach you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lü Tie and the others said in unison, "We want to learn!"
Chao Bufan nodded and then said, "Since you all want to learn, I will teach you. However, I must make it clear that once you embark on the path of cultivation, your outlook on life and values will change. Not to mention anything else, what cultivators pursue is something that mortals cannot achieve. For ordinary cultivators, they often use their abilities to make their lives more fulfilling. When cultivation reaches a deeper level, they naturally become incredibly powerful, ranging from moving at lightning speed and destroying mountains and stopping rivers to mastering the mysteries of heaven and earth, which is what you just mentioned as attaining immortality. All of these are possible."
Lu Tie said excitedly, "Bufan, don't say anymore. Cultivation is something we've never even thought about. We only occasionally see other people being so powerful in fantasy dramas, and we just daydream about it. Now that such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is right in front of us, only a fool would miss it."
Big Mouth sighed, then pretended to be a poet and recited: "Once, a sincere love was placed before me, but I did not cherish it, and only regretted it after losing it; once, a road directly to success was laid before me, but I also did not cherish it, and only regretted it after hitting it and bleeding; in the past, I have missed so many wonderful opportunities, but now that I have encountered one, do you think I will miss it again?"
Chao Bufan snapped his fingers and said, "Alright, then I won't waste any more words. You four, stand in front. I'm going to teach you the basics of cultivation now, and I'll also give you a set of ready-made martial arts techniques."
Upon hearing this, Lü Tie and the others immediately lined up and stood respectfully in front of Chao Bufan without further ado.
Chao Bufan stood up, glanced at Lü Tie and the others, then stretched out his right hand, palm down, and flipped it upwards. Four egg-sized orbs of light, glowing with a white halo, immediately floated in his palm. Then, to the astonishment and excitement of Lü Tie and the others, the four orbs flew out of Chao Bufan's palm and struck Lü Tie and the others in the chest.
When the ball of light struck their chests, it created ripples like a stone thrown into a lake, sending up white waves in all directions. As Lü Tie and the others shuddered, the white waves disappeared, and the four of them were both shocked and overjoyed.
Big Mouth was overjoyed: "Extraordinary, we...we...ha..." Big Mouth hugged Guan Gong tightly and screamed excitedly: "We've become cultivators! We've become cultivators!"
Chao Bufan smiled slightly, then sat down on the sofa, picked up the cup of tea, and continued drinking.
After a moment of excitement and elation, Lü Tie and the others bowed respectfully to Chao Bufan and called out, "Dad."
"Pfft!"
Chao Bufan spat out a mouthful of water, which landed squarely on Da Zui's body. He then asked incredulously, "What...what did you call me just now?"
Lu Tie chuckled and said, "We'll call you Dad! You've given us things we could never have imagined or received in our entire lives. You're like our second parents, so we'll call you Dad!"
Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, saying, "Lu Tie, do you know that the word 'Dad' isn't something you can just call anyone? Alright, from now on you can just call me Big Brother."
"is this okay?"
"Why not? We're all brothers, so call me Big Brother from now on!"
Lu Tie and the others exchanged glances, then shouted in unison, "Big Brother!"
Chao Bufan nodded and said seriously, "Remember this: cultivators also have their own rules. You must not show off in front of outsiders, you must not kill innocent people indiscriminately, and you must not do anything that is against heaven and reason. If I find out in the future, and any of you dare to violate these rules, then don't blame me for turning my back on you."
Upon hearing this, Lü Tie and the others respectfully replied in unison, "Don't worry, brother, we understand."
"Good to know. Remember, the Dao is boundless, and diligence is the only way to reach it. As long as you persevere and cultivate diligently, becoming an immortal is not a difficult thing."
Unable to contain their excitement, Lü Tie and the others nodded in unison, saying, "Yes, we've got it."
Chao Bufan revealed his signature easygoing smile and said, "Alright, let's leave it at that. The preliminary work in Xihai is all done. I'm going there this afternoon and may not be back for two or three days. Lü Tie, I'm entrusting you with an important task."
Lu Tie asked, "Brother, just tell us what mission you need. We're willing to go through fire and water for you."
Chao Bufan laughed and said, "It's not as serious as you're making it out to be. I need you to secretly protect my girlfriend, Tang Qianqian. I'm afraid that while I'm away, someone might try to harm her."
Upon hearing this, Lü Tie and the others didn't hesitate and said in unison, "Brother, please rest assured, we will definitely protect your sister-in-law."
Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Also, our company is related to important national military secrets, so we can't afford any mistakes. While you guys protect my girlfriend, you also need to keep an eye out. If you find any criminals trying to sabotage us, no matter who they are, you can act first and report later. I will bear all the consequences."
Upon hearing this, Lü Tie and the others were immediately startled, and then answered in unison, "Yes, elder brother."
"Oh, and also, Lü Tie, could you help me find out where there are any large auction houses? Let me know if you find any."
