Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 1255 Demon 

Alex felt a weight lifted off his shoulders after finally being able to escape from that hellish place. However, he wasn’t laughing as intensely as Megan was.

Upon reflection, he realized that he had only been in that place for a few hours. On the other hand, Megan had been there for a long time. Hence, it was only natural for her to be that happy.

Alex walked toward Megan and patted her on the shoulder, smiling as he said, “All right, you’re out now. Do you want to take one last look at your family? Or should I help you reincarnate right away?” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Reincarnate?” Megan slowly turned around as she spoke. Her previous innocent and harmless look had disappeared, replaced by a sinister smile.

“Are you joking with me, Alex? Me, reincarnate?” Megan laughed heartily, and her body was immediately enveloped in a layer of dark aura.

Upon witnessing the scene, Alex felt that something was amiss and quickly retreated several steps. He hadn’t expected that Megan wasn’t as she seemed.

Previously, within the formation, Megan always appeared weak and timid. She seemed scared and often. cried when faced with any situation.

Therefore, Alex didn’t imagine that a seventeen-year-old girl was not as simple as she seemed; in reality, she was actually deceiving him.

At that moment, Megan was still transforming. Her entire demeanor had drastically changed, and ant intense aura had begun to surge from her. The red dress she had worn before had also transformed into black.

The more Alex observed, the more anxious he became. This is akin to demonic transformation! Previously, Erika from the Greaves family was on the brink of such a transformation, but I managed to

stop it just in time. However, I don’t think I can stop Megan from undergoing this transformation.

Even if he was a fool, he would’ve figured out what was happening by then. I used to think that there was something strange about the Greaves family’s affair. Now, it seems that someone was behind Erika’s near transformation into a demon.

Many things that didn’t make sense before clicked into place as Alex thought about why the people from Mountain of the Beasts brought him there. The reason they wanted me to enter the formation was to release the demon trapped within it. It’s highly likely that this formation is a demon-trapping formation. The people from Mountain of the Beasts might have attacked Stanley because I prevented Erika from becoming a demon. Therefore, those people might have desired revenge against me. They didn’t directly confront me because they fear of my strength, so they thought of disposing of me in this manner.

“Thank you so much, Alex. Without you, I wouldn’t have been able to escape from that place. Now, let me think about how to repay you. Should I devour your soul directly or tear you into pieces?” Megan said with a sinister smile.

“I’ve released you from that place. Doesn’t that make me your benefactor? I’m not asking for anything in return, only that you don’t kill me,” Alex said in a negotiating tone.

Alex could hold his ground against second-phase Grandmasters, despite being a first-phase himself. However, dealing with a demon would prove to be somewhat challenging.

After all, he had never encountered such an existence in his life. Judging by the records in the Nine

Heaven Scrolls, he knew the demon was extremely terrifying. It could appear anywhere at will, and the destructive power it possessed was not something a Grandmaster could survive.

If Megan was determined to kill Alex, the chances of him surviving were only twenty percent.

Upon hearing what Alex said, Megan laughed as if she had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. Her laughter was eerily piercing, so much so that Alex wanted to cover his ears.

“You really have a knack for humor! If it weren’t for the fact that you set me free, I might have killed you the moment I got out. Do you think I would’ve bothered wasting my breath talking so much with you. otherwise? At the very least, I’m giving you a clear death. You should be thanking me. All right, enough of this idle chatter. It’s your turn to be reincarnated now,” Megan said, preparing to make her move on Alex.
