"Hmph!" Scorpion snorted coldly, ignoring Gu Liyan.
“Hey, Xiao Li, it was Master who saved you, don’t argue with him…” Hua Xiaoxiao saw that Gu Liyan was disrespectful to the Demon Scorpion, so she tugged at Gu Liyan and spoke up.
Gu Liyan frowned, glanced coldly at the Demon Scorpion, gritted his teeth and snorted, "Hmph, I will give him a reward!"
Hua Xiaoxiao sensed the discord between Gu Liyan and Mo Xie, and immediately became conflicted. However, she still felt that she should help Mo Xie, after all, he was the one who saved Gu Liyan, he was the one who taught him about medicinal herbs, and most importantly, he was disabled!
“Xiao Li, you, you should talk to Master properly…” Hua Xiaoxiao looked at Gu Liyan with a serious expression.
Gu Liyan frowned, looking somewhat displeased, her chest heaving. When she was the mute Gu Liyan, Hua Xiaoxiao cared about Mo Shang, but now, as Mo Li, she was pleading for this wicked demon, the Scorpion, who was causing harm to the region.
Gu Liyan turned his head away. "I said I would pay him. It's none of your business!"
Hua Xiaoxiao was shocked to hear Gu Liyan's words. She never expected Gu Liyan to say such heartless things.

Gu Liyan nodded, focusing all his attention on activating the power of endless life. In an instant, the demon scorpion felt a powerful life force spreading throughout its body, and let out a comfortable groan, "Awesome!"
His voice became full of confidence, as if he had become a middle-aged man again.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Liyan could no longer hold on. She frowned, her face covered in sweat, and looked at the Scorpion with some question, "Why haven't your four limbs grown yet?"
The scorpion narrowed its eyes and sneered, "Your energy isn't enough, is it?"
Gu Liyan frowned and glared at the Demon Scorpion, then continued to use the Power of Life.
After a long while, Gu Liyan could no longer hold on. She knelt on the ground and weakly blew on her arm. "I'm tired. If it doesn't work today, let's try again tomorrow..."
The scorpion's half-closed eyes suddenly snapped open, revealing a ferocious grin. "No need for tomorrow, today will do!"
Gu Liyan was stunned. Sensing the killing intent emanating from the Demon Scorpion, he abruptly raised his head, his pupils shrinking. He saw that the Demon Scorpion's limbs had grown back, but instead of limbs, they were—
