Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 455: Abandoning Hatred and Forgetting Love
One of the reasons why Xiao Qiu Shui left was that Lu Ping had ruined her interest.

Another reason was that he had indulged in sensual pleasures for most of the day but still could not find the emotions in his heart.

After leaving the brothel, Xiao Qiu Shui strolled on the street. His straight back looked extremely lonely and desolate.

Not far behind him, Xiaolongnu and Li Mochou followed side by side.

Further back, there are Lu Ping and Hong Lingbo.

Lu Ping was asking the young and innocent nun for information: "So... why are you following him?"

Hong Lingbo was a simple-minded person. Seeing that Lu Ping had no ill will towards him, and that there seemed to be something going on between him, Xiao Qiu Shui, and Li Mochou, he quickly let down his guard and answered every question after a few words.

It turned out that after Xiao Qiu Shui rescued Xiao Longnu from Li Mochou, he was impressed by her talent and wanted to teach her martial arts.

At first, Xiaolongnu thought that she was from the Ancient Tomb Sect and directly rejected his kindness.

But Li Mochou was watching her closely, and Xiao Longnu's martial arts was not as good as hers. If Xiao Qiu Shui left like this, she would definitely fall into Li Mochou's hands and be forced to learn the Jade Girl Heart Sutra.

So after some thought, Xiaolongnu agreed.

As for Li Mochou following, one reason was to wait for the opportunity when Xiaolongnu was left alone; the other was that she was worried that after Xiaolongnu really learned something from Xiao Qiushui, she would not be able to defeat her.

So every time Xiao Qiu Shui taught, she would stay by the side and listen.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiu Shui not only did not drive Li Mochou away, but instead asked her to learn with him.

Unconsciously, Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu felt as if they had returned to the days when they practiced martial arts with Granny Sun in the ancient tomb.

Thinking of the friendship between senior sisters, the two gradually put aside the grudges in their hearts and their relationship began to ease.

After calming down, the two could have left.

But if they left, they wouldn't know where to go for a while, so they thought of waiting until they had finished learning the entire content of the Book of Forgetfulness before leaving.

After all, the worst thing about practicing martial arts is to give up halfway.

It would be terrible if I didn't learn all the martial arts and ended up with some hidden dangers.

After hearing the reason, Lu Ping couldn't help but mutter to himself: "The feelings between women are really strange. They can be enemies when they say they will be enemies, and let go when they say they will let go..."

Hong Lingbo continued gossiping, "In fact, it was mainly because the uncle-master told them the practice method of the Jade Girl Heart Sutra that their relationship improved."

"Oh? There is such a thing?" Lu Ping was very surprised.

In the original novel, she refused to say anything...

Hong Lingbo explained: "The reason why Master Uncle didn't hand over the Jade Girl Heart Sutra before was because Master had rebelled against the ancient tomb in the past. She followed the sect's rules and didn't pass on the Jade Girl Heart Sutra to outsiders."

"But now she has left the ancient tomb, which is a violation of the sect's rules. She has also learned other martial arts from others. In terms of her situation, she is no different from my master."

"In this case, how can she still have the qualifications to flatter others and say that she will keep the Jade Girl Heart Sutra for the sect?"

That makes sense!

In the original novel, the reason why Li Mochou wanted the Jade Girl Heart Sutra so much was because of her obsession. This martial art had a very special meaning in her heart, and it could probably be regarded as the 'white moonlight in martial arts'.

In fact, even Xiaolongnu, who had practiced the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, was no match for her on her own.

"I understand when you put it that way."

Lu Ping suddenly realized: "In the past, Xiao Longnu could still claim to be pure and say that Li Mochou was corrupt, but now she has also become evil and corrupt, so she has no confidence to say others..."

Although Hong Lingbo didn't know what "evil fall" meant, seeing Lu Ping's confident look, he knew that he had figured it out.

"Yes, that's it!"

Gossiping along the way, they came to the outskirts of town, by the river, and under a tree.

Xiao Qiu Shui looked at the sparkling river water, feeling mixed emotions and a confused mind, feeling melancholy and lost.

"What are you thinking about?"

Lu Ping walked forward and stood side by side with Xiao Qiu Shui.

"Brother Gu, in your life, is there anyone, thing, or event that you consider to be the 'most important'?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, I knew he was an old player of NetEase Cloud Music.

Lu Ping thought seriously for two seconds and replied, "I am only twenty years old this year, and I still have at least two hundred years to live. It is too early to answer this question."

"But since you asked, I'll answer you."

"In the past twenty years, I have valued many things, friendship, morality, humanity, life, martial arts, freedom, money, cheats... every one of them is of paramount importance."

"If we have to say which one is the most important, it's really hard to tell which is more important."

"It is these many things that have shaped me into who I am today. If any one of them is missing, I would not be who I am today, so they are all equally important to me!" Lu Ping understood what Xiao Qiu Shui wanted to say, so he added: "If the time comes when you have to make a choice and give up something for something, you can only choose the one that will make you not regret it as much as possible."

"Fortunately, I am lucky and have not encountered such a situation so far."

Xiao Qiushui seemed to be thinking about something, and then a hint of envy appeared in his eyes: "Then you really have little experience."

"I have something that I feel is more important than my own life, but now I can't get it back no matter what I do."

There was a hint of bitterness in his voice.

"Those who practice the Heavenly Book of Forgetfulness can reach the pinnacle of martial arts, but they are destined to forget about love, lose love, and abandon hatred. From then on, although the world is vast, you will be alone. I guess your heart must have been extremely empty over the years, right?"

When Xiao Qiu Shui heard Lu Ping mention the name of the 'Book of Forgetfulness', he immediately knew that his identity had been seen through by the young man in front of him. He was startled and then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha... I knew you had an extraordinary background. I could never hide this from you."

"I am really curious about your true identity. How is it possible for someone in the world to have cultivated to this level at the age of twenty?"

Lu Ping raised his eyebrows: "You have seen it, haven't you?"

Xiao Qiu Shui stopped laughing, lowered his head, and sighed, "Yeah, I've seen it..."

Although Lu Ping's words just now were calm in tone and simple in content, they were like the sharpest blade in the world, piercing Xiao Qiu Shui's heart fiercely and making him feel excruciating pain.

"From the first moment I saw you, I knew you were extraordinary, but I never thought you would be this extraordinary."

"Now that you have figured out my identity and know what I lost, do you have any way to help me find it?"

Of course there is a way to find it back.

“Emotions and memories are the connection between people.”

"As long as the person is alive, losing emotions and memories is nothing. We can just restore them."

Xiao Qiu Shui nodded: "But I have tried many methods, but I still can't 'feel' or 'recall', and my heart is always empty."

"This is because the technique is working."

Lu Ping gave the answer directly: "If you want to restore your emotions and memories, you just need to disperse your energy."

"Disperse your energy..."

Xiao Qiu Shui fell into deep thought.

Lu Ping knew what he was thinking.

Not to mention that it is not easy to learn martial arts, there is no guarantee how long one can survive after losing the skills.

If I die immediately, or find out that my past memories and emotions are not as good as I imagined, and are not worth all my martial arts skills, then wouldn't that be a waste of my skills?

With Xiao Qiu Shui's experience in the martial arts world, it is impossible that he had not thought of the method of 'dispersing power' in the past few decades. However, he still dragged it on until now, and obviously could not make up his mind to try other methods.

"This is what I just said, it's time to make a decision."

"Just try to choose the one that you won't regret."

Then, the two fell into silence, and only the rippling river water could prove the passage of time.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Qiu Shui sighed and finally spoke: "You're right..."

"It has been delayed for decades. It is time to make up our minds."

"I made a decision!"

"I want to disperse my power and get back everything I had in the past!"

After a pause, Xiao Qiu Shui continued, "But in the meantime, I have another appointment to keep!"

"What appointment?"

Of course Lu Ping knew what the appointment was about, but he still asked.

Sure enough, Xiao Qiu Shui's answer was as expected.

"Twenty years ago, Yan Kuangtu and I agreed to have a final battle at Cape Fairyland. The agreed date will be in a few days. I want to wait until we have fulfilled the agreement before dispersing my power."

You don’t remember the agreement with Tang Fang, but you remember the battle agreement with Yan Kuangtu?
Lu Ping's breathing stagnated.

For those who practice the Book of Forgetfulness, the deeper the past emotions, the more completely they will forget them.

Although he knew this was the reason, Lu Ping still wanted to shout a loud swear word at this moment.
