Hua Xiaoxiao's expression changed immediately upon hearing Murong Xiaoxiao's words. "What?!"
Hua Xiaoxiao looked at Gu Liyan, whose breath was weak, and was heartbroken. "I'm sorry, Xiao Li! It's my fault!"
Hearing Murong Xiaoxiao's words, Xiao Tao trembled with anxiety, "Father will be alright, he will be alright..."
"Pfft!" Gu Liyan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, splattering it all over Xiao Tao's face. Xiao Tao was stunned for a moment, then immediately covered her face and burst into tears, crying, "Daddy—!"
Blood and tears mingled together, making Xiao Tao's pretty face look like a mess.
On the other side, Mo Chen heard Xiao Tao's crying and paused. He subconsciously looked in Gu Liyan's direction. The scorpion seized the opportunity and grabbed Mo Chen's calf with its pincers. Mo Chen staggered and before he could resist, the scorpion squeezed hard and broke Mo Chen's leg.
"Ah—" Mo Chen's scream made Hua Xiaoxiao and Murong Xiaoxiao tremble.
At that moment, Xiao Tao stood up, wiped the blood from her face, and said to Hua Xiaoxiao, "Take good care of Daddy!"
Hua Xiaoxiao sat on the ground and nodded blankly.
Xiao Tao walked step by step toward the Demon Scorpion. When the Demon Scorpion saw Xiao Tao, a smile appeared on his lips, and he threw Mo Chen aside.
Mo Chen fell to the ground, his whole body convulsing in pain. Seeing Xiao Tao step forward, Mo Chen hurriedly said, "Xiao Tao, don't come any closer... quickly take your father and the others and leave!"
Xiao Tao ignored Mo Chen and went straight to the Demon Scorpion.
"Are you the daughter of that fox spirit, Mo Li?"
Xiao Tao answered calmly, "Yes!"
"Your father is a spirit fox, and so are you, right?" The scorpion squinted at Xiao Tao, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "I can spare your father's life, but you'll have to become my blood slave, how about that?"
Xiao Tao stood before him, looking down at him like an elephant looking down at an ant.
Xiao Tao showed no fear, but looked at the Demon Scorpion and said calmly, "You have my father's life force on you. He helped you regain your strength, didn't he?"
Scorpion squinted and chuckled, "Little girl, you have a good eye!"
Xiao Tao said calmly, "You shouldn't have hurt my father!"
"Hehe, your father is quite a treasure, he really makes me both afraid and obsessed! I couldn't help but want to kill him!" Scorpion laughed.
Xiao Tao narrowed her eyes, a fierce glint in them. "You're the one who deserves to die!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Tao raised her little hand, and saw that the surrounding grass and trees grew rapidly, wrapping around the scorpion's entire body.
"Heh, you think these little trees can trap me?" The scorpion's lips curled up. He struggled a few times but couldn't break free. His face immediately froze. "What, what's going on?"
Boom! The sky suddenly darkened, and the sounds of thunder and wind resonated.
"I told you, the damned one is you!"
Xiao Tao squinted, and the pink in her eyes turned into a terrifying purple.
The scorpion was startled and stared at Xiao Tao in astonishment. Then, as if sensing a powerful force, it looked up and saw thunder roaring in the sky. The scorpion trembled and cried out, "Heavens...heavenly thunder!"
Xiao Tao clenched her little fist and said calmly, "Filthy and evil souls, accept the judgment of the punisher!"
"No! I have just been reborn. According to the cycle of heaven, you cannot kill me!" Sensing the killing intent above his head, the Demon Scorpion's face turned pale as he hurriedly spoke.
"The cycle of heaven? You have to be completely dead before you can be reincarnated!" Xiao Tao shouted angrily.
After saying that, he swung his fist and with a thunderous roar, a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm struck down fiercely—
