Godly Revival System: I Buy My Killer's Stats-Chapter 142: Ethan Meets Shadow Bee (2)
"Since we both are interested in purifying the Berserk Beasts, can you form a team with me in purifying all the Berserk Beasts in the Berserk Beast Realm?"
"Huh? Forming a team to purify the Berserk Beasts?"
Ethan was surprised to hear Shadow Bee's suggestion of forming a team with him.
Although Ethan didn't know why Shadow Bee wanted to purify the Berserk Beasts, he could tell that he was not lying about it and was sincere with his words.
If Ethan didn't know about Shadow Bee, he might have agreed without any hesitation because purifying the Berserk Beasts is very rewarding for him.
However, the other party was a meticulous killer who killed multiple cultivators without revealing himself.

So, forming a team with someone like that, Ethan had to always keep an eye on Shadow Bee as he didn't know exactly what Shadow Bee was interested in purifying the Berserk Beasts.
"Yes. Your ability to purify the Berserk Beasts is powerful and with it, as long as we can work together, we can purify all the Berserk Beasts in the Berserk Beast Realm."
Shadow Bee nodded his head and explained more about it.
"All the Berserk Beasts in the Berserk Beast Realm?"
Ethan was a bit tempted to hear as he imagined how many Life Points he could accumulate by purifying all the Berserk Beasts in the Berserk Beast Realm.
However, at the same time, a question formed in Ethan's head as he asked Shadow Bee, "Friend Drez, are you confident that if we form a team, we can purify all the Berserk Beasts in the Secret Realm?"
"After seeing your ability to purify the Berserk Beasts in such a short time, I am very confident in it."
Shadow Bee confidently smiled as he said, "Of course, it entirely depends on your ability to purify them, but I believe we can do it."
'I don't know what he is planning; however, I am sure he won't kill me as long as I am within the Berserk Beast Realm.'
It was not just Ethan who could not kill Shadow Bee, it was the same for Shadow Bee too.
Hence, Ethan thought forming a team with Shadow Bee was not a bad thing.
"..."
Ethan wanted to accept it directly; however, he curbed his excitement and remained silent as though he was thinking about it.
"How about this? For your help, I will gift you this Beast Evolution Stone that is effective on all Spirit Beasts below Rank 5."
Seeing that Ethan was thinking, Shadow Bee thought of something and hurriedly gave a pitch-black colored stone to Ethan.
"T-this….it is too valuable."
Ethan was surprised by Shadow Bee's generosity.
A Beast Evolution Stone is a very rare cultivation resource that can help a Spirit Beast evolve into an even more powerful Spirit Beast.
Although it can only be used on Spirit Beasts below Rank 4, Ethan knew it was worth millions of Spirit Stones.
So, he felt a little hesitant to take such a valuable item from Shadow Bee.
"It is indeed valuable; however, it is a small thing compared to using your ability to purify the Berserk Beasts."
Shadow Bee forced the Beast Evolution Stone into Ethan's hands.
"Fine. I will accept it."
Ethan didn't reject it and took it while thinking, 'I will take it as compensation for killing me in the past and forget about my revenge until we leave the Berserk Beast Realm.'
Ethan already had two Spirit Beasts back in the Small Courtyard, and he planned to form Special Contracts with some of the Special Spirit Beasts with good potential before he left the Berserk Beast Realm.
So, a Beast Evolution Stone was quite useful to him, making him accept it.
"Does that mean you are willing to form a team with me in purifying the Berserk Beasts?"
Seeing that Ethan accepted the gift, Shadow Bee became excited as he asked Ethan for confirmation.
"Of course."
Ethan nodded his head and continued, "However, before we start working together, I want to know why you want to purify the Berserk Beasts that badly."
By purifying the Berserk Beasts, Ethan could earn Life Points through his Heavenly Talent, [Heaven's Virtue]; however, Ethan was curious about Shadow Bee's purpose for purifying them.
He even joined the Feng Family to participate in the Beast Extermination Trial to enter the Berserk Beast Realm. So, Ethan strongly believed that Shadow Bee had a strong motive behind it.
"By the way, don't tell me that you are feeling sad for them and want to purify them to make them normal."
Before Shadow Bee could speak, Ethan made sure Shadow Bee wouldn't give some lame reason for his motive.
"T-this…..sorry, I can't tell you."
Shadow Bee frowned at Ethan's sudden question regarding his interest in purifying the Berserk Beasts.
However, he didn't answer Ethan's question.
"It looks like there is no fate between us to form a team."
Ethan seemed disappointed as he extended his hand, "Take your gift back and leave."
Ethan wanted to know the true reason why Shadow Bee was very much interested in purifying the Berserk Beasts. Without knowing it, Ethan didn't want to form a team with him.
So, he could only return the Beast Evolution Stone to Shadow Bee.
"Friend Kai….do you really want to know about it?"
Shadow Bee gritted his teeth and asked Ethan one last time.
"Yes. Without knowing your purpose, how can I trust my back to you?"
Ethan nodded his head with a serious look on his face.
'...'
Shadow Bee remained silent, and just when Ethan thought that he would leave, he heard Shadow Bee speak in a serious tone, "Fine then. I will tell you; however, you need to swear on your cultivation heart to not say anything I tell you to anyone."
"Huh? Swearing on my cultivation heart?"
Seeing the serious look on Shadow Bee's face, Ethan also became serious; however, hearing his words, Ethan could not help but frown.
"Yes. What I am about to tell you should not be known to a third person as it would not only put me in danger but also you."
Shadow Bee briefly warned about the dangers if Ethan learned his motive as he asked Ethan once again, "Do you still want to know about it?"
"Yes."
Hearing all his words only made Ethan more intrigued, wanting to know about it.
"I swear on my Cultivation Heart that I won't tell others regarding the information I hear from Drez. If I do, my Cultivation Heart will shatter into ten thousand pieces."
Without any hesitation, Ethan directly swore on his Cultivation Heart.
In this world, to make sure others don't go back on their words, they must swear an oath on their Cultivation Heart.
The moment they break their promise and go back on their words, the cultivator's Cultivation Heart will be shattered — like an instant justice.
'...'
Shadow Bee was shocked by Ethan's actions as he was not at all expecting such a turn of events.
"Listen carefully, I will only say it once."
Taking a deep breath, Shadow Bee started explaining, "I am actually a member of one of the Hermit Tribes called the Primal Fang Tribe in the Evergreen Plains."
"It is the duty of my tribesmen to help the suffering Spirit Beasts and currently, ninety percent of the Berserk Beasts in this Secret Realm were once under the care of my tribe, and we have treated them as family for generations."
Shadow Bee's fists trembled as sorrow, anger, and frustration clashed within him.
His voice wavered as he spoke, "Do you know what it feels like to watch your own kin suffer because you are weak?"
