Godly Revival System: I Buy My Killer's Stats-Chapter 263: I am Your Shield

’What?’

Hearing Theodore’s words, Ethan was pleasantly surprised as he was not expecting Theodore to believe his words and even accept him to stay in the Lin Family.

However, what Ethan didn’t know was that Theodore has his own reasons for accepting Ethan into the family.

Currently, there is a storm coming towards the Lin Family, and there are doubts regarding the survival of the family.

In the Lin Family, he was the only Golden Core Realm Cultivator in the entire Lin Family and Greenspire Town. With Ethan, who had the battle prowess greater than him, Theodore believed they could kill more Bloodclaw Tribesmen in the upcoming fight.

Moreover, even if Theodore wanted, he could not do anything to Ethan, and the other party was not killing him even though he had the chance to kill him.

So, considering all these things, Theodore decided to believe Ethan’s words and let him stay in the Lin Family.

"However, I still don’t believe you completely."

Theodore shook his head as he thought of something and asked, "Since you claim to be sent by my father to protect the Lin Family, right?"

"Yes, Ancestor."

Ethan had a bad feeling about it; however, he still nodded his head.

"So, you need to answer my next questions without any delay."

Theodore didn’t give any time for Ethan to think as he asked, "Then, are you willing to risk your life for the Lin Family?"

For a moment, Ethan was worried about what question Theodore was going to ask him.

However, when he heard it, he revealed a bright smile and replied with a face full of seriousness, "Of course, I will. I will even swear in the presence of the heavens that I will even die for the Lin Family."

For others, it might be a risky thing to swear on the Heavens.

However, for Ethan, it was a small thing as he didn’t mind dying for the Lin Family as he could easily revive with his Revival Life Cards and even the [Godly Revival Ability].

Although dying requires him to use his ability or one Revival Life Card, Ethan didn’t mind using them because he wanted to repay the Lin Family for their care and resources they’d provided.

"Y-you...you even swore on the Heavens?"

A moment ago, even Theodore thought of making Ethan swear on the Heavens; however, it is an extreme thing, and he was worried that Ethan might leave the family, which was currently in trouble.

But, to his shock, Ethan himself swore on the Heavens, making Theodore become less worried about Ethan betraying the Lin Family.

"Since you have sworn on the Heavens to die protecting the Lin Family, you should know about the storm brewing around Greenspire Town to wipe out the Lin Family."

Originally, Theodore wanted to reveal the matter regarding the Bloodclaw Tribe to Ethan when the tribe really made the move.

However, Ethan’s swearing on the Heavens changed his attitude toward Ethan, and he decided to share the details of the incoming danger to the Lin Family.

Of course, it was not because Theodore cared about Ethan; instead, he hoped that Ethan could make enough preparations for the war.

"In a few days, the Bloodclaw Tribe will come to destroy not just the Lin Family but the entire Greenspire Town. So, I hope you can make your preparations to help the Lin Family."

"What? Why does the Bloodclaw Tribe want to massacre the Lin Family?"

Hearing Theodore’s words, Ethan was shocked, and he asked for more details.

"Looks like you already know about it. So, you must also know about the Hermit Tribes, right?"

Seeing Ethan’s reaction after hearing ’Bloodclaw Tribe’, Theodore could tell Ethan knew about it, and obviously, he was not surprised.

For someone with the battle prowess of the Golden Core Realm when he was still in the Foundation Establishment Realm, how could his knowledge about the world be lacking?

After getting the confirmation from Ethan, Theodore soon started explaining everything that he had talked about with his sons earlier...including the history of the Lin Family being a Hermit Tribe in the past.

"What? Lin Family was a Hermit Tribe in the past?"

Ethan had a hard time digesting all the things he heard from Theodore regarding the Lin Family.

However, thanks to his [Radiant Clear Heart], he became calm in no time and thought, ’No wonder the Lin Family was able to suppress the other four Cultivation Families despite being a new Cultivation Family.’

As a Hermit Tribe, their cultivation talent is good, and although the Green Lotus Tribe’s bloodline has been diluted, it is still much better than the other Cultivation Families.

’Ding,

A new choice-based mission has been generated. Do you want to check them?

Suddenly, there was a system notification in Ethan’s head, and he hurriedly checked them.

Since Theodore was talking about the survival of the Lin Family, Ethan guessed this newly generated choice-based mission might be related to it.

’Ding,

Mission 1: I Am Selfish.

Mission Details: After the host’s blood message, the Bloodclaw Tribe will go to any extent to remove the remnants of their old enemy at any cost.

Objective: Escape from the Lin Family and the Greenspire Town along with your parents and forget the help you received from the Lin Family.

Reward: 10,000 Life Points and a Random Low-level Life Card.

Penalty: None.

....

’Ding,

Mission 2: I Owe Them a Favour.

Mission Details: Your Blood Message to the Bloodclaw Tribe has successfully been triggered, and they think it was the Lin Family’s doing.

Objective: Stay in Greenspire Town and assist the Lin Family in surviving the storm that is about to come because it was the Lin Family that sheltered you and your parents in your time of need, and also, it’s your actions that brought a disaster for the family.

Reward: 100,000 Life Points and three Random Low-level Life Cards.

Penalty: 10,000 Life Points and three Minor Cultivation Realms.

...

Mission 3: I Am Their Shield.

Mission Details: Some with a Heavenly Talent [Heaven’s Virtue] don’t weigh benefits and losses when it comes to protecting those who gave him shelter. Instead of simply helping from the sidelines, take full responsibility for guarding the Lin Family and the Greenspire Town.

Note: Don’t forget how you are able to enter the Mystic Soil Domain. Without Uncle Merrick, there is no way for you to enter the Mystic Soil Domain.

Objective: Protect the Lin Family during the upcoming crisis even at the cost of your life.

Reward: 1 Million Life Points, a High-level Life Card and three Random Low-level Life Cards.

Penalty: One Major Cultivation Realm.

.....

’T-this...I will go with the last mission.’

Looking at the three missions, Ethan didn’t have to think much as he directly selected the third mission.

’Since the main reason behind the Lin Family’s situation was me, it is me who should solve the problem for them.’

Ethan had already realised from Theodore’s words that his counter to the Bloodclaw Tribe had put the Lin Family in danger.

Thinking about it, Ethan could not help but feel bad.

"Don’t worry, Ancestor. With me here, no one is going to harm the Lin Family and Greenspire Town."

With a face full of seriousness, Ethan tried to assure Theodore; however, he knew it was useless as Theodore still had some doubts about him.

Nevertheless, he didn’t care about it and muttered, ’I think it is time to bring some help.’
