Mrs. and Mr. Smith

“Bring the corpses in!” Davy Barnett roared in rage.

A few people hurriedly moved the corpses inside.

Inside the surveillance room.

Davy Barnett’s expression grew even uglier as he stared at the black-robed man on the screen.

“There aren’t many people who can pull this off, but… who is this person!” Davy Barnett was furious.

Emerson Holmes opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to say something.

“President Barnett, this person’s goal is obviously the power of the Bloodline,” Emerson Holmes said solemnly.

“So… this person might be related to Emily Taylor.”

Emerson Holmes racked his brains, trying to hint at Davy Barnett.

After hearing this, Davy Barnett couldn’t help but say coldly, “Could it be… someone sent by Hugh Taylor?”

Hearing this, Emerson Holmes suddenly felt a massive headache.

“Impossible, Hugh Taylor has no real power now. If he had any real power, he would never let us mess with his daughter,” Emerson Holmes said solemnly.

“President Barnett, I suggest we set a trap and ambush him secretly,” an assistant nearby said.

Davy Barnett was silent for a moment before nodding and saying, “That makes sense, but… creating another Blood Inheritance wielder is not that simple.”

After all, Emily Taylor’s blood was limited, and the accumulation during this time was meant for Dominic Taylor.

“We can find a random person and claim they’ve obtained the Bloodline. As long as we don’t say anything, who will know if it’s true or false?” the assistant suggested with a smile.

However, this suggestion was quickly dismissed by Emerson Holmes.

“I suggest we wait a little longer. That black-robed man is not a fool,” Emerson Holmes said.

“If we introduce a new inheritor so soon, how can the black-robed man possibly believe it?”

Emerson Holmes’ words won the approval of Davy Barnett.

He nodded slightly and said, “Alright, we’ll do as you said.”

Emerson Holmes breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Ethan Smith died, his daughter would be saved, and he would be freed.

…

The black-robed man’s actions caused a great uproar.

The geniuses carefully selected by the Capital City Martial Arts Association were killed one after another by the same person. This news was shocking!

For a time, almost everyone was speculating about the identity of the black-robed man.

“Even Ethan Smith wasn’t capable of this level of strength, right?”

“Ethan Smith is nothing compared to the black-robed man. This man is definitely a veteran Military Marquis!”

“Indeed, there aren’t many in this world who can kill a mid-term Military Marquis so easily.”

“Maybe he’s even a Peak Form of Military Marquis.”

As the black-robed man’s fame rose, the reputation of the Capital City Martial Arts Association was completely lost.

If they couldn’t catch the perpetrator, their reputation would be completely ruined.

In a certain room at the Capital City Martial Arts Association building.

This room was situated on the sixtieth floor, overlooking the surroundings.

In the room, there was a huge bathtub set up!

What was horrifying was that the bathtub was filled not with water, but with bright red blood – an entire tub of Emily Taylor’s blood!

God knows how much Emily had suffered!

“Young Master Taylor, this is Emily Taylor’s blood,” Davy Barnett said, pointing at the tub.

Dominic Taylor couldn’t help but frown as he gazed at the full tub of blood. He said solemnly, “Does this blood really have such a great effect?”

“Indeed,” Davy Barnett said with a faint smile.

Seeing this, Dominic Taylor didn’t say anything more.

He slowly took off his clothes, walked over to the edge of the bath, and then gradually submerged his entire body into it.

“Hiss!”

The moment his flesh touched the blood, bursts of white steam rose from Dominic Taylor’s body!

This blood seemed to be boiling, constantly emitting heat!

“Ahh!!”

Dominic Taylor felt as if his body was about to be cooked, waves of severe pain made him break out in a cold sweat!

Davy Barnett, standing nearby, spoke somewhat excitedly: “As expected! As a member of the Taylor family, the inheritance rate of this blood is much higher!”

The blood became even hotter, almost fusing with Dominic Taylor’s body!

For an instant, Dominic Taylor felt his flesh subtly transforming!

Moreover, the array beneath the bathtub turned purple!

“Hiss!”

At that moment, the scarlet color in the blood began to vanish as if it were being absorbed by Dominic Taylor!

His body became incredibly lustrous, and his flesh grew exponentially stronger!

Not only that, but Dominic Taylor felt his state of mind suddenly clear, even his divine sense surged!

“Splash!”

Another loud noise!

The array beneath the bathtub began to tremble as if it were about to shatter!

The blood’s scarlet color had completely disappeared, leaving it almost dry!

“This feeling… it’s beyond imagination!” A rare look of excitement appeared on Dominic Taylor’s face!

He slowly emerged from the bathtub, clenched his fist lightly and felt that the strength of his flesh had increased manifold!

“Is this the power of the Taylor family bloodline?” Dominic Taylor whispered.

President Barnett spoke admiringly, “Young Master Taylor, your Blood Inheritance rate reaches 60%! Truly worthy of being a member of the Taylor family!”

“Sixty percent?” Dominic Taylor furrowed his brow.

He coldly looked at President Barnett and asked, “President Barnett, just sixty percent?”

“Sixty percent is already very good,” Davy Barnett seemed to understand Dominic Taylor’s meaning.

“Apart from Emily Taylor herself, I’m afraid nobody could surpass this number.”

Upon hearing this, Dominic Taylor’s face darkened even more!

“In other words… Emily Taylor herself is 100% inheritor?” Dominic Taylor asked coldly.

“Her own bloodline, of course, is 100%,” Davy Barnett said somewhat helplessly.

This instantly made Dominic Taylor feel frustrated!

He had only inherited sixty percent and his strength had undergone a qualitative change.

What kind of unimaginable power would Emily Taylor herself possess?!

“President Barnett, I’m a little curious, why would you go through the trouble of cultivating others instead of letting Emily Taylor herself cultivate?” Dominic Taylor asked tentatively.

“She has the full power of the bloodline; if she cultivates, her future would be limitless, right?”

President Barnett nodded slightly, “We indeed had this plan, but… she and Ethan Smith are inseparable. How could she be used by us?”

“Now we have even killed her beloved one; if she cultivates, in the future, she will surely become a great enemy of the Capital City Martial Arts Association.”

Dominic Taylor narrowed his eyes and said, “In other words… you never intended to let Emily Taylor leave?”

“We absolutely cannot let her leave!” Davy Barnett confirmed.

Dominic Taylor didn’t speak for a long time; after a while, he let out a sigh of relief.

As long as Emily couldn’t leave the prison, he would be the inheritor with the highest inheritance rate!

“With my current strength, there shouldn’t be many people in the world who can beat me.” Dominic Taylor clenched his fist and whispered.

Davy Barnett smiled faintly, “That’s true, however… you should be careful of that black-robed man. If he finds out about this, he will definitely kill you.”

“The black-robed man?” Dominic Taylor’s eyes narrowed, and a strong interest emerged on his face.

“Right now, I feel great. In fact, I’d really like to see what that black-robed man is capable of…” Dominic Taylor sneered.
