Moreover, the night is so dark right now.
It's not so easy to see someone's face clearly.
Even if he understands, he has to pretend to be confused.
"If you want to know who I am, let me see what you're capable of first."
"Heartless and vicious!"
Hei Xiaohu chuckled, his fighting spirit already burning within him. Since that was the case, he certainly wouldn't hold back.
As one of his signature moves, the Black Heart Fiend Palm was only mastered by Black Heart Tiger and his son within the entire Demonic Sect.
As the palm strike was unleashed, a black gust of wind howled forth.
Seeing this, Lin Yan pretended to be surprised, covered his right fist with the Golden Light Mantra, and threw a punch with all his might.
With his current strength, he can fight against the combined power of the three swords, but defeating them would be a stretch.
Hei Xiaohu, who had just emerged from seclusion, was already strong enough to defeat the combined power of the Three Swords and was roughly on par with the combined power of the Four Swords.
Therefore, even if Lin Yan goes all out, he might not be able to defeat Hei Xiaohu.
But now it's different. Lin Yan now understands that Hei Xiaohu is testing him.
It was also guessed that there must be something black-hearted about it.
Therefore, he did not hold back in this punch, but he concealed his true trump card, the Five Thunder Orthodox Method.
"Oh!"
The two exchanged a full-force punch, and Hei Xiaohu took a half step back.
Lin Yan took three steps back, leaving deep pits in the ground beneath his feet.
"Your subordinate, Niu Yan, the deputy head of the Third Hall, greets the young master."
After taking a few steps back, Lin Yan clasped his hands in a respectful gesture and addressed Hei Xiaohu.
Even if they continue playing, there will be no clear winner or loser.
On the contrary, it will allow your trump cards to keep being revealed, but the time is not yet right.
Lin Yan did not want to fully display his strength within the Demonic Sect.
"You ever met me?"
"How do you know I am the young master of the Demonic Sect?"
When Hei Xiaohu realized that his identity had been exposed, a strange look appeared on his face.
He clearly remembered that he had never seen Lin Yan in the Demonic Sect.
Although he had heard of Lin Yan from other people, he had never met him.
"The Black Heart Fiend Palm is a technique that only the sect leader has ever practiced in the entire Demonic Sect."
"Moreover, your face bears a striking resemblance to the cult leader; you're practically a younger version of him."
"Even if a subordinate has poor eyesight, they can still recognize it."
Lin Yan smiled slightly and revealed his guess.
Of course, the moment Lin Yan saw Hei Xiaohu's face, he guessed Hei Xiaohu's identity.
I never expected that I had just seen Blackheart Tiger during the day.
Yet, he was able to see the young master, Black Tiger.
"Good, your observation skills are excellent. I was careless."
"I never expected that you would recognize the Black Heart Killer Palm."
"Your strength is quite good; even the hall master might not be your match."
Hei Xiaohu was slightly taken aback, not expecting that it was his actions that made Lin Yan recognize him.
He couldn't help but praise Lin Yan's keen eye.
Especially Lin Yan's strength, he originally thought that his father, Black Heart Tiger, was exaggerating.
Unexpectedly, a mere deputy hall master actually possesses such strength.
"Young Master, you flatter me. My abilities are far inferior to yours."
"That punch just now, if the young master hadn't shown mercy, it would have been a disaster."
"Presumably, the subordinates will suffer considerable internal injuries."
Chapter 36 Sharing the Dark Space, The Heavenly Talisman
Lin Yan's well-timed flattery brought a smile to Hei Xiaohu's face.
Although he did use all his strength in that punch, it didn't achieve the effect he wanted.
But what came out of Lin Yan's mouth was different.
"Since you've recognized my identity, I won't beat around the bush with you anymore."
"When Niu Xuanfeng returns in a while, I will speak to him personally."
"From now on, you can come with me."
"When I take over the Demonic Sect in the future, you will also reap considerable benefits."
Hei Xiaohu stood with his hands behind his back, an arrogant look on his face, exuding an aura of superiority.
In his view, this was the greatest favor he had done for Lin Yan.
To make a mere deputy hall master one's trusted general in the future would make him second only to the emperor.
"Thank you for your kindness, young master."
"But my subordinates don't want to leave the Third Hall yet."
"Niu Xuanfeng and his subordinates are sworn brothers, and the subordinates have been cultivating together with him since childhood."
"He passed on all his skills to his subordinates, so they had to fulfill their responsibilities and help my elder brother manage the three halls first."
After hearing Hei Xiaohu's words, Lin Yan did not immediately agree like an ordinary person.
He knew that although Hei Xiaohu was very strong, he had extremely high standards and ordinary people were simply not good enough for him.
It's not the right time yet for Hei Xiaohu to truly accept him.
It would be better to refuse first and then talk.
"Oh? I didn't expect you to be so loyal and devoted."
"Alright, I agree."
"I will come to find you again when I have truly emerged from seclusion."
"At that time, you will no longer be able to refuse this young master."
A glint of light flashed in Hei Xiaohu's eyes; he hadn't expected anyone to dare refuse his invitation.
He was surprised by Lin Yan's rejection, but even so, he still thought Lin Yan was very good.
It is truly rare to encounter such a compassionate and righteous person within the Demonic Sect.
If such a person were to be subdued, he would surely be able to help him a great deal in the future, just as Black Tiger had said.
Moreover, Lin Yan did manage the three halls very well.
Within the Demonic Sect, the strongest disciples in terms of strength currently belong to the three halls under Niu Xuanfeng.
"Thank you for your kindness, young master."
"If we were to refuse the young master, it would make us seem rather ungrateful."
Lin Yan smiled slightly, and seeing that Hei Xiaohu had taken the bait, he immediately followed suit.
Under normal circumstances, there is clearly a problem, namely Lin Yan's current strength.
If he goes with Hei Xiaohu now, he will definitely be in danger immediately.
Judging from his abilities, he could probably handle any danger he might encounter.
But in this world, the danger of the Demonic Cult is not just the Seven Swordsmen; there are other enemies besides them.
There are quite a few people who are eyeing the Demonic Sect covetously.
In Lin Yan's view, even Blackheart Tiger is not invincible in today's world.
Be careful in everything you do, and stay obediently in the evil cult; that's the best course of action.
"Alright, that's settled for today."
"Remember, don't tell anyone that I, the young master, came to see you today."
Hei Xiaohu nodded and then left.
Lin Yan did not choose to stay there for long and turned to leave.
