Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 1166

Chapter 1166 Taking Action 

As Lincoln spoke, he pointed at the young man who was engulfed in black flames. “Look, everyone! The black flames burning on this person’s body are proof that he’s working for the devil. The reason he spoke like that earlier was to make you all catch the flu. You must not believe him!” 

Originally, some people still had doubts about Lincoln. However, upon witnessing such a situation, they became even more convinced of his abilities. They believed that he was indeed a powerful deity who could conjure flames out of thin air and even discerned that the young man was bewitched by a demon. 

Meanwhile, the young man was engulfed in black flames, letting out piercing wails of agony. He kept rolling on the ground, but the flames showed no signs of extinguishing. 

Having stood at the side and observed everything pathetically, Alex concluded that when Lincoln’s capability to ignite a person confirmed that Lincoln was a second-phase Master. 

I never expected that there would be such a powerful cultivator in this small village. A cultivator like him, if placed in the secular world, could easily join a prominent family and have a high status. Is he really here to swindle and deceive people just for the sake of money? 

The strength of a second-phase Grandmaster was indeed remarkable. The flames they unleash were not something ordinary people can withstand. If this went on, there was a chance that the young man might be burned alive. 

“Master Lincoln, why can’t this black flame be extinguished? Will it burn someone to death?” someone suddenly asked. 

Lincoln stroked his beard and said, “His soul has been bewitched by the devil. The black fire will burn the darkness in his heart. When the devil inside him is completely burned by the black fire, he will be fine.” 

Upon hearing Lincoln speak, everyone nodded in agreement and praised the master once again for his profound skills and abilities. 

I really can’t bear to watch it any longer. If this continues, there’s no way the young man will survive. 

Approaching the young man, Alex activated the Mortal Force within him and shot out his palm. The force of his palm wind extinguished the black flames on the young man’s body. 

The gathering of people intending to purchase medicine observed Alex with grave expressions. Previously, they had heard Lincoln assert that the black fire was unquenchable. Yet, when the young man intervened, the fire was swiftly extinguished, seemingly contradicting Lincoln’s claim. 

The fire that engulfed the young man may have been extinguished, but his current condition remained far from satisfactory. Lying on the ground, his breaths were feeble, and his entire body was charred black by the flames, depicting the severity of his injuries. 

Alex retrieved a pill from his pocket and handed it to the young man, instructing him to consume it. Having completed this action, Alex redirected his attention away from the young man and fixed his gaze -on Lincoln instead. 

In a cold and stern tone, Alex questioned, “Even if he had doubts about you, was it truly necessary to subject him to such a cruel fate of being burned to death?” 

Now, with certainty, he realized that the medicines marketed by Lincoln were far from miraculous; instead, they were nothing more than deceptive products intended to mislead people. 

Lincoln refrained from openly expressing his anger toward Alex. After all, witnessing the young man extinguish his fire effortlessly with a single motion made it clear that he was no ordinary individual.
