Upon seeing this, the villagers erupted in a deafening cheer. Someone shouted, "Kill them! Avenge our fallen comrades!"
"Kill them! To appease the countless innocent souls!"
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze stood in the crowd, their eyes fixed on the villains, their expressions firm and cold.
Just then, an old man walked shakily to their side, tears welling in his eyes, and said, "Do you see? Those who harmed us are finally going to be punished."
Xu Yuehuai gently patted the old man's hand and comforted him, "Grandpa, we saw it. Don't worry, justice will definitely be served."
On the execution platform, the executioner raised his knife high, ready to carry out the execution. At that moment, the entire village seemed to stand still, with only the wind gently rustling the leaves.
"Snap!" With the sound of the knife falling, the villains' lives came to an end. The villagers cheered and celebrated, as if they could already see a new and brighter future approaching.
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze smiled at each other, their hearts filled with justice and hope.
This is just the beginning; this village will move towards a brighter future!
Amid the lively celebration banquet, villagers sat around the brightly lit square, their laughter echoing throughout.
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze sat at the main table, their figures appearing exceptionally tall under the lamplight. The villagers raised their glasses, expressing their heartfelt respect to these two valiant warriors.
"Heroine Xu, Hero Qi, thanks to you, we are able to live a peaceful life!" an old man said excitedly, his eyes glistening with tears.
Xu Yuehuai smiled slightly, raised his glass in response, and said, "Old man, protecting the villagers is what we should do. As long as everyone keeps working hard, the village will definitely get better and better."
Qi Guze nodded, his gaze firm and profound: "Yes, we are all one, and only by working together can we achieve stable development."
Just then, Xiao Li walked up to Xu Yuehuai. He was dressed in simple cloth clothes, and his face still bore the traces of youthful naiveté and immaturity. He bowed deeply, then raised his head, his eyes revealing determination and resolve.
"Miss Xu, I wish to become your disciple and learn martial arts." Xiao Li's voice trembled slightly, but it was filled with determination and persistence.
Xu Yuehuai looked at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by relief. She reached out and gently patted Xiao Li's shoulder: "Xiao Li, you have great courage. But you must know that learning martial arts is not easy; it requires hard work and sweat."
Xiao Li nodded, a resolute look on his face: "I'm not afraid of hardship or fatigue. I'm willing to do anything to protect our homeland."
Xu Yuehuai looked at him, her eyes full of admiration: "Alright, I promise you. But you must remember, martial arts are not for showing off or fighting, but for protecting yourself and others, and upholding justice."
Upon hearing this, a bright light flashed in Xiao Li's eyes, and he nodded heavily: "I understand, Miss Xu."
After the celebration banquet, night had fallen. Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze returned to their lodgings. It was a simple wooden house, but for them, it was their warmest haven. They sat by the window, gazing at the starry sky outside, their hearts filled with emotion.
"The stars are so beautiful tonight," Xu Yuehuai said softly, a gentle smile on her face.
Qi Guze nodded, his gaze deep and distant: "Yes, just like this village, although it has weathered storms, it remains beautiful and resilient."
The two looked at each other and smiled, as if all their fatigue and hardship had vanished in that moment.
The night breeze blew gently, carrying away the hustle and bustle of the day. Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze sat quietly by the window, enjoying this rare tranquility and peace.
They knew that the sun would still rise tomorrow, and they would continue to move forward and fight until every corner of this continent was filled with the seeds of peace and tranquility!
In the days that followed, with the careful encouragement and precise guidance of Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze, the young people in the village, including Xiao Li and Xiao Zhao, continued to practice diligently, constantly challenging and breaking through their limits.
Xu Yuehuai continued to teach them to study the secret manual and impart the essence of martial arts within it. As time went by, their martial arts skills improved day by day, and their mentality became more mature and stable.
Time flies, and several months have passed in the blink of an eye. Their martial arts skills have made great progress, and they are no longer naive novices who have just begun to learn martial arts, but are gradually transforming into true martial artists.
They danced gracefully in the village square, each punch and each sword swing filled with power and confidence, their movements becoming increasingly fluid and natural.
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze have always been by their side, giving them their greatest support and encouragement, and witnessing their growth and transformation.
Finally, one day, when the warm sun shone on the earth, the young people faced an important test—the village's annual martial arts tournament.
This is a perfect opportunity for them to showcase their martial arts skills and strength, and a moment for them to prove their growth to the villagers!
At the martial arts tournament, the young people displayed their unique skills, their fists and feet flying, their swords flashing, like agile dragons tumbling and dancing on the stage. Their duels were full of passion and excitement, making the audience's blood boil, and bursts of applause and cheers erupted from time to time.
"good!"
"As expected of a disciple of a great heroine!"
"Our village has a bright future!"
After a fierce competition, the young people finally determined the winner. Although some were happy and some were sad, everyone gained valuable growth and progress in the process.
They know that this martial arts tournament is just a small milestone on their path to growth. The road to martial arts is still long, and they still need to continue to strengthen their training!
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze witnessed the outstanding performance of the young people in the martial arts tournament, and their hearts were filled with joy and emotion. They saw that these young people were no longer the naive novices they once were, but had grown into true martial artists.
Their growth and progress are not only an honor for them personally, but also a source of pride for the entire village.
"It seems they have truly matured," Xu Yuehuai remarked with emotion.
“Yes, they have all become true martial artists,” Qi Guze replied with a smile. “All of this is inseparable from their hard work and perseverance.”
The two exchanged a smile, as if they could already see these young people continuing to move forward on their future paths and creating an even more brilliant future.
"We should go!" Xu Yuehuai smiled slightly at Qi Guze.
"Mmm." Qi Guze squeezed her hand.
After the martial arts tournament ended, Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze did not linger and quietly left the village.
They used their light-footed skills to leap to the treetops, their figures darting swiftly through the woods, eventually disappearing into the distant mountains...
