The temperature in the air was rising rapidly, and the suffocating stuffiness was spreading everywhere, and the people at the scene felt as if they were watching the ignited fuse shorten on the ground, but there was nothing they could do.

Just when the battle was about to escalate again, a fresh wind suddenly blew out of the canyon, and when this breeze blew on Master Layton, Master Layton first paused, and then the battle spirit that had only risen from him with great difficulty suddenly melted away and disappeared.

The changes in Master Leighton's body, as an opponent, Gong Bing naturally won't be able to see it, although he doesn't know what happened, but this one obviously can't be beaten, so it can only end here.

Unless it is a life-and-death fight, the twisted melon is not sweet, and Gong Bing is not interested in making a move against a person who has no intention of fighting.

However, Gong Bing still felt a burst of irritability in his heart, and even had the urge to continue to do it regardless of it.

Fortunately, Gong Bing is not a weak-willed person, he quickly suppressed this emotion, and then stuffed a cigarette into his mouth, lit it and took a big gulp.

At this time, I saw Master Leighton's eyes closed, slightly bowing his head in a listening motion, and after a slight nod, he opened his eyes again.

"It's a great meeting, you, very good."

Master Leighton looked at Gong Bing and said slowly, he has always been taciturn, even when he praises others, he is concise and to the point.

However, it would have been surprising if anyone who knew him was present, for they had rarely seen Master Layton compliment others in such a way.

As a Heavenly Rank martial artist who has accumulated years, Master Leighton's strength is far older than it seems, so he has seen more people and things than ordinary people, and now there are fewer and fewer people who can really enter his eyes, let alone young people.

But Gong Bing is an exception.

Having such strength before the age of twenty is unprecedented, neither now nor in the past.

There is no shortage of amazing and brilliant people in the world, and there will always be one or a few in every era, which makes everyone feel both eclipsed and hate people born in the same era.

Their existence is the pinnacle of an era and a sign of an era.

In the eyes of Master Leighton, Gong Bing is a true secret martial genius, and undoubtedly has the potential to become a sign of the times.

Therefore, his praise of Gong Bing is indeed sincere, without a trace of politeness.

But Master Layton understands more in his heart that potential is only potential after all, and if he can't grow up and go to the end, then even if he has high potential, it will be in vain.

Different from Master Leighton's attitude, Gong Bing has always regarded the Heavenly Rank as a goal that he must be able to achieve, so Gong Bing does not feel that there is anything to be happy about Master Leighton's praise.

So, he just nodded and responded casually: "Well, you're not bad either." ”

No, yes, you're a ghost, huh?

This is the collective complaint of everyone except the two of them about Gong Bing.

Of course, this complaint is just a ringing in their hearts, they have just seen Gong Bing's hands-on, although they know that there are not many people with a short temper on the other side, but out of the most heartfelt fear, no one will talk too much now to make themselves uncomfortable.

Not to mention others, even James had to be surprised by Gong Bing's current strength and change his previous view of Gong Bing.

No matter where he is, a powerful person will always be respected and respected by others, so James knows very well in his heart that he can no longer look at him as a junior in the future.

Now James has raised Gong Bing to an equal position that can be compared with himself.

"What's your name?" Master Leighton asked Gong Bing.

"Gabriel, Gabriel Taylor." Gong Bing said his name in this world.

Master Layton nodded: "Okay Gabriel, you can also enter the canyon with me." ”

"Into the canyon?" Gong Bing looked at him with some confusion.

"Come with me, the messenger wants to see you." Master Leighton saw that he was puzzled, so he explained more: "You will understand after you go in." ”

Emissary?

At this time, Sean came to Gong Bing's side and patted him on the shoulder, because Master Leighton stopped fighting, Gong Bing had already lifted the qi reversal body and returned to his ordinary height, so Sean could easily pat Gong Bing's shoulder.

"Gabriel, don't ask so much, you can follow the master in, you can be summoned by your seniors, this is your chance and luck."

"Isn't Master Leighton the senior you mentioned earlier, father?" As soon as he heard Sean's words, Gong Bing reacted, could it be that he had misunderstood something all along?

It seems that Master Leighton, who had just fought with him, was actually not the shelter that Sean had come to find for Rita on purpose.

Sure enough, Sean nodded and said, "Although Master Leighton is a powerful Heaven Rank martial artist and a respectable powerhouse, he is not the predecessor I call him. ”

"So who is this senior? Also a Heaven-level martial artist? ”

"We all respectfully call that senior a messenger, but don't worry, Gabriel, as long as you see your senior, the doubts in your heart will naturally be solved." With that, Sean patted Gong Bing's shoulder again, but his eyes twitched.

Is this a stone?

Sean withdrew his hand without a trace, and then secretly shook his palm, which was a little painful from Gong Bing's knotted tendons.

Although there were still many questions in his heart, since Sean said so, Gong Bing did not continue to ask.

After all, he knew that Sean would not harm him.

When it was finally time to leave, no matter how reluctant Rita was, it would be useless, for the sake of her safety, Sean would not allow Rita to refuse willfully.

So Rita could only say goodbye to Koller with tears in her eyes, if it weren't for Sean's repeated urging, Gong Bing was very sure that this little couple would be able to say another night.

Master Leighton led Sean, Gong Bing, and Rita into the canyon, while the others drove back the way they came.

The news of Rita's entry into the Horizontal Sky Canyon will surely spread with the departure of those who survived the explosion just now.

With the goal of the mission lost, those greedy predators naturally had no reason to continue to do it, so James and their way back must have become much safer.

Even if there are a few guys who don't have a good head and want to try their luck, but it doesn't matter, James's fists and the guns in other people's hands are not decorations, as long as the other party dares to come, he can teach them how to behave anytime and anywhere.

After entering the canyon, in order to take care of Rita, Master Leighton did not move forward with footwork like when he came out, but walked slowly in front of him at the speed of an ordinary person.

The crack passage of the Hengtian Canyon winds forward like a serpentine, and the bottom is about twenty or thirty meters wide, because the angle of the cliff is larger, and the two sides are only slightly wider upward.

Because the ground at the bottom is uneven, potholes, and covered with large stones ranging from a few meters to more than ten meters high, cars cannot enter.

When everyone turned a corner, many forks began to appear in the crack passage of the canyon, and the terrain became complicated, and the sun was setting and the sky was getting darker, making the road more difficult to walk.

Not to mention the lights in the canyon, there is not even a road sign to guide the way, if it is not for Master Layton to lead the way, it is really easy to get lost in it.

It seemed that because of her low mood, Rita seemed a little silent along the way, and Master Leighton only cared about burying his head in the way, without any intention of communicating, so Gong Bing could only talk to Sean without a match.

Due to his personality, Gabriel and Sean had nothing in common in the past, and they were always silent in front of their father, even if they spoke, they only asked and answered mechanically.

For Sean, he is very good at shooting, wiping his neck and doing things, but taking care of children and being someone else's life coach is really difficult for him.

So talking to his son about such things while walking is really rare in his memory, and the last time he recalls it was when Gabriel was in kindergarten.

The son is no longer what it used to be, and many things have lost the meaning of continuing to be kept secret, so Sean can now be regarded as answering questions to Gong Bing.

And he enjoyed the chat.

"Father, do you think it's really a good choice to keep Rita here?"

The two chatted and chatted, and Gong Bing suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Gabriel, the temptation of immortality is too great, and many people will do anything to do anything for it, which is too dangerous for Rita."

"But I think we can protect her, not leave her in this kind of place."

"I totally agree that you do have the strength now." Sensing Gong Bing's intentions, Sean smiled rarely, but then sighed and continued.

"And not only you, but also your uncle James and I, do not want Rita to be harmed in any way, and are willing to work hard for it, but Gabriel, you must know that human desires are endless, and when greed blinds the eyes, it is difficult for that person to think rationally, and in the end, he will either ruin himself or others.

For those with ulterior motives, they will be everywhere, and we can protect it for a while, but we can't protect it for a lifetime, and I can't afford to hurt Rita. ”

Gong Bing fell silent, and he could hear the helplessness behind Sean's words.

For a promise, Sean has been keeping the secret of Rita's life for ten years, even at the expense of hiding his name and silently guarding her.

He didn't want the tragedy of his best friend to happen again, he just wanted Rita to be safe for the rest of his life.

It's just that the world is unpredictable, and many things are often not predictable and influenced by human beings.

Watching Rita grow up since he was a child, Sean has long regarded Rita as his real daughter, so if he had a choice, of course he would not want to leave Rita here alone.

"And after that? What do you plan to do after that? Gong Bing glanced ahead and asked in a low voice.

At this time, Rita was following behind Master Leighton, and the temperature in the canyon decreased as night fell, and the cold wind howled, making Rita look a little petite as she curled up.
