Zhou Yang is a Strength Enhancer, his power is terrifying. Despite the Red Fire Scorpion's hard shell, it was nearly crushed by several blows. However, a mutant beast is still a mutant beast; unless it is killed with one strike, it will retaliate with its last breath, taking an enemy down with it even in death.
Although Zhou Yang is strong, his speed is average. If the Red Fire Scorpion spews a fireball and it suddenly explodes, he won't be able to dodge it!
Tang Yiyi had just reached Zhou Yang when the Red Fire Scorpion, which was on the brink of death, indeed spewed a mass of flames. It was probably dying because this flame was even more unstable than the one Tang Yiyi encountered earlier and was about to explode just after being spewed.
Thankfully, Tang Yiyi had some experience controlling it. She managed to suppress the flame just as it was about to explode, and then, using the same trick again, she extinguished the flame, making it a close call.
