Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 2570

This time, Andrew was completely sure that something was happening on the other side of the woods.

Just as that thought crossed his mind, the wind roared through the forest, followed by two sharp, commanding shouts.

"You damn demon, stop right there!"

"Tonight will be your last night alive!"

A demon?

Before Andrew could even process that, a shadow streaked across the night sky like a falling star. He caught a glimpse of a face so breathtaking that it was almost surreal. Then, a dark figure crashed into the lake with a loud splash, not far from where he stood.

Bubbles rose to the surface, then slowly faded as the ripples settled.

For a brief moment, Andrew froze. The woman in black had an almost mesmerizing aura. She looked oddly familiar, yet no matter how hard he tried, he could not recall where he might have seen her before.

Before he could think further, two loud blasts echoed through the forest. Immediately after, two figures shot out from the trees, riding on bursts of energy, and hovered above the lake.

The instant before they appeared, Andrew ducked under the water and stayed still. From beneath the lake's surface, he could see their shadows reflected on the water.

The two men were standing on the surface, their feet barely disturbing the ripples.

There was no doubt that they were both martial emperors. At their level, they could cross rivers in a single breath or shatter stone with one strike. Moving weightlessly through the air was second nature to them, like the legendary immortals who could walk the wind.

"Where is she?" one of them asked.

"I don't see her. Split up and search," the other replied.
