Immediately, Blue Rabbit felt a sudden darkness before her eyes and fainted.

Lin Yan put away the Ice Soul Sword, then took the Blue Rabbit and headed back.

Meanwhile, the disciples from the four halls who had fled all around saw that the battle was over and that their new hall master had emerged victorious.

They all returned one after another and began to flatter Lin Yan.

"As expected of the hall master, the so-called successor of the Seven Swords is nothing but rubbish."

"Yes, the sect leader's strength far surpasses that of most people."

"With the Hall Master here, our Fourth Hall will definitely be able to live a life of pride and glory from now on."

"The Hall Master is wise and mighty!"

Hearing the flattery from the four disciples, Lin Yan frowned and felt nauseous.

These guys didn't seem to offer any help during the fight.

Now that the battle is over, they're all rushing out to flatter him.

"Stop talking nonsense."

"Hurry up and bring the horse over here."

Lin Yan looked at the group of disciples from the four halls, a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

These disciples from the fourth hall are probably much less skilled than those from the other halls.

But his eyesight was absolutely top-notch. Seeing that Lin Yan was a little angry, he immediately brought all the horses over.

. . . . . .

A few days later, Lin Yan returned to the Demonic Sect with the Blue Rabbit and the Ice Soul Sword.

The first thing they did was to imprison Lan Tu in the dungeon of the Third Hall.

As for why they weren't imprisoned in the Fourth Hall, it was mainly because the disciples in the Fourth Hall were not very well-behaved.

To avoid causing any trouble, the disciples of the third hall are more disciplined than those of the fourth hall.

After arranging everything, Lin Yan went to Black Tiger Cliff to report his findings to Black Heart Tiger.

Meanwhile, at Black Tiger Cliff...

Hei Xiaohu arrived at Black Tiger Cliff faster than Lin Yan.

After meeting his father, he expressed his desire to pursue the Seven Swords' successors and share his father's burdens after mastering the Heavenly Demon Dance Divine Skill.

However, when the father and son first brought up this topic...

Lin Yan arrived just in time to interrupt Hei Xiaohu from saying what was on his mind.

"Didn't you go to pursue the successor of the Seven Swords?"

"It's only been a few days, and you're already back."

Hei Xiaohu frowned as he looked at the subordinate who had suddenly arrived, feeling slightly displeased.

He was inherently arrogant and stubborn, and his decision to confide in Black Tiger was something he had been thinking about for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yan suddenly ruined their plans.

"Reporting to the sect leader, young master."

"My subordinates lay in ambush at the Golden Whip Creek Inn for a day and finally spotted Rainbow Cat, Blue Rabbit, and DouDou."

"Although the two successors of the Rainbow Sword and the Rain Flower Sword escaped."

"But the subordinates captured the Jade Toad Palace Master Lan Tu and the Ice Soul Sword, and they are currently imprisoned in the Third Hall Dungeon under strict guard."

Lin Yan clasped his hands in a respectful gesture and addressed the father and son before him.

Hei Xiaohu, who was originally planning to make trouble, couldn't help but be slightly taken aback after hearing Lin Yan's words.

Even Blackheart Tiger didn't expect Lin Yan to make such a great contribution this time, not only capturing a successor of the Seven Swords alive, but also bringing back the Ice Soul Sword.

Chapter 57 A double-edged sword is an uncontrollable sharp sword.

Black Tiger was startled when he saw Lin Yan hand him the Ice Soul Sword.

He took the Ice Soul Sword and drew it out.

The cold light reflected on the Ice Soul Sword was enough to prove that it was a divine weapon of the time.

Having suffered from the combined power of the Seven Swords before, Blackheart Tiger could recognize at a glance that this divine weapon was the real Ice Soul Sword.

"This is Niu Yan's strength."

"It doesn't seem as simple as it appears."

"I sent him to hunt down the Seven Swords' successor, and I didn't expect him to actually do it. What kind of technique did he obtain?"

"Even the combined power of three swords could stop them and capture one of them alive."

Blackheart Tiger narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the Ice Soul Sword in his hand, his emotions remaining hidden.

Instead, he began to calculate Lin Yan's abilities in his mind.

He sent Lin Yan to hunt down the Seven Swordsmen, not because he wanted Lin Yan to actually kill one of them.

The intention was simply to create some pressure on the Seven Swordsmen, prompting them to gather quickly, and then to draw out the Qilin.

Then he led the demonic cult army to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

After all, only five of the Seven Swords remain now, if it weren't for the Qilin Blood.

He could easily have killed them all if he had taken action himself.

"Well done, tell me what reward you want."

"Anything that I, the leader, can do, I will grant your request."

Black Tiger laughed and casually tossed the Ice Soul Sword to his son, Black Little Tiger, before asking Lin Yan what reward he wanted.

In his view, a subordinate who has no desires or wants must have something much greater to ask for.

So this was also his way of testing Lin Yan.

Whether this person can continue to be used or not, if not, should be eliminated as soon as possible.

Even if this person has made great contributions to the demonic sect.

"The position of deputy leader of the Demonic Sect has been vacant for many years."

"Your subordinate dares to ask the leader for the position of deputy leader."

A glint of light flashed in Lin Yan's eyes as he looked at Black Heart Tiger with feigned anticipation.

He certainly knew what kind of personality Blackheart Tiger had.

That is precisely why he needs to show his greed at this time.

And now that he has the resources, he can start planning his goals.

If he had no desires or wants, he wouldn't have stayed in the Demonic Sect in the first place.

You can simply find a place to live in seclusion in the mountains.

"The position of vice leader has already been taken."

"Although we haven't heard from her recently, it's not good to change things without her permission."

"Alright then, I will first promote you to the rank of Protector, and you will temporarily take charge of the four halls."

"Once a suitable person becomes the head of one of the four halls, then it will be regardless of whether the vice leader returns or not."

"How about I promote you to vice leader?"

Black-Hearted Tiger pretended to think for a moment, and then offered a compromise.

Ma San Niang has not sent any messages back for quite some time.

Moreover, since Lin Yan brought back the Purple Cloud Sword, it is very likely that Ma San Niang has already been killed.

Even so, Black Tiger did not immediately agree to Lin Yan's request.

The reason is simple: they don't want to hand over the second most important position in the demonic sect to someone they don't even know.

"Thank you, Master!"

Lin Yan looked at Black Tiger with a delighted expression, his joyful demeanor making it impossible for Black Tiger and his son to tell whether he was faking it or not.

On the contrary, Hei Xiaohu also showed a hint of dissatisfaction when he heard Lin Yan ask for the position of vice leader.

Although he looked down on the position of sect leader.

But I don't want to see a subordinate who has made outstanding contributions overshadow my own.

"Alright, you may leave now."

"Someone will come to find you tomorrow."

Black-Hearted Tiger waved his hand with satisfaction, intending to send Lin Yan away first.
