Panic immediately overcame Matthew.
Iris had barely reached the Vanguard camp for a day before launching an attack on Basha's Sacred Mount when Sasha had arrived at Basha's Sacred Mount just the day before. All these events pieced together into a single, alarming message in Matthew's mind: Iris was targeting Sasha.
Without hesitation, Matthew rushed out of his tent and found Paintaker, who was engrossed in reading a scripture.
"Hurry, get everyone ready and attack the Vanguard!"
Paintaker looked up from his scriptures and saw the murderous aura radiating from Matthew, even catching glimpses of countless vengeful spirits behind him. Nodding quickly, he complied.
"Feather Army, assemble!"
Immediately, 9,000 soldiers swarmed in from all corners, standing in neat formation before Matthew.
"Your lady is in danger now. Tell me, what should we do?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The thunderous cries of the soldiers echoed as Matthew turned and led the Feather Army to the battlefield. Paintaker's followers were numerous, and it would take at least half an hour to gather them all. But Matthew couldn't wait that long; he couldn't even wait another second.
Atop Basha's Sacred Mount, Sasha was running desperately. Although the Red Fire Lotus had enhanced her abilities, she had been too well protected by Matthew, leaving her with no experience in combat.
She dared not stop, with three men hot on her heels, constantly taunting her.
"Pretty girl, don't run. We promise you will have a wonderful time later."
The twin brothers eyed Sasha's long legs, curvy figure, and frosty yet beautiful face, a surge of lust flaring up within them. She was even more stunning than Iris, and the brothers exchanged a knowing look, recalling Iris' sultry ways.
A red glow covered Sasha's eyes as she seized the moment to run back. Ahead lay a cliff shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see how deep it was. Behind her was the original forbidden area of the Red Fire Lotus on Basha's Sacred Mount.
Seeing the three men rise to their feet, Sasha gritted her teeth and leaped off the cliff.
In the air, she felt the wind rushing past her ears as she tried to control her spiritual power to stay airborne. For a moment, she felt her body stop, and a smile appeared on her face—she had succeeded. But the next instant, the feeling of suspension vanished, and Sasha's body plummeted once more.
Splash!
Fortunately, a lake lay below, and Sasha plunged into it. The fish in the lake, startled by her sudden arrival, scattered in all directions. But under the impact, Sasha began to sink helplessly to the bottom of the lake, and then something strange happened.
Her head struck a strangely shaped stone, and blood flowed into the water. The Red Fire Lotus, which had calmed down, suddenly flared up again, enveloping both Sasha and the stone.
