116: Chapter 116 Supreme Ghost Lord! Ancient Dream Ghost! Millions of Enjoyment Points!

"Who are you, to dare trespass into the Path of Reincarnation!"

The Ghost Official roared, quickly manipulating the Restriction in an attempt to suppress Chu Xiao right there.

The Path of Reincarnation was fundamental to the Three Realms and the core of the Netherworld, serving as a vital resource point for the various ghost races.

No disturbances could be permitted here!

Much less a living person trespassing!

At that moment, Chu Xiao held the ten-path reincarnation hell tower in his hand, his body enveloped by a mysterious power that shielded him from the terrifying suppressive force of the Path of Reincarnation.

Looking at that incredibly familiar back, Chu Xiao could no longer hold back and cried out, "Mom! Don't go any further, look back! Mom!!!"

His voice was hoarse and strained!

The Ghost Official frowned, his gaze falling upon the ten-path reincarnation hell tower. He was secretly shocked; what kind of treasure was this bone tower that even the Path of Reincarnation could not suppress it?

It seemed the bone tower hadn't even been fully activated!

If it were fully unleashed, this section of the Path of Reincarnation might even be shattered!

"Halt! The Path of Reincarnation is not a place for a living person like you to trespass."

The Ghost Official let out a cold howl as his Ghost Emperor Realm cultivation erupted instantly, revealing his hideous and terrifying Yellow Springs true form.

He was a pure-blooded member of the Yellow Spring Ghost Race!

On the other side.

Jiang Yuying, who was about to step into the Reincarnation Well, finally couldn't help herself. She stopped her footsteps and slowly turned her head to look back.

Sensing the anomaly, the Ghost Official immediately barked, "There is no turning back on the Path of Reincarnation! Do you wish for your Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering?"

Jiang Yuying's body stiffened as if frozen in time, but the foot she had stopped began to move forward once more.

"Mom... I beg you, don't go any further!"

Chu Xiao was already drenched in tears.

This short distance of several hundred meters could lead to an eternal separation in a single moment...

Since his Rebirth and gaining the System, Chu Xiao had never felt as distressed, unwilling, powerless, hopeless, and heartbroken as he did today!!!

He didn't know that his mother, Jiang Yuying, felt exactly the same way!!!

Retaining the memories of her past life, she was being forced to reincarnate into the Immortal Realm, never to see the person she missed and cared for again.

Just then.

A melodious, ancient sigh carrying the weight of ages drifted up from the bottom of the Yellow Spring River.

The originally calm and peaceful Yellow Spring River suddenly became turbulent, with waves surging dozens of meters high, frightening the ghosts who had not yet stepped onto the Naihe Bridge until their faces turned pale and they fell silent as cicadas in winter.

"This aura... could it be that Ancestor Styx has been disturbed?"

The Ghost Official was startled.

A terrifying aura spread from the bottom of the Yellow Spring River. In an instant, this world and everything on the Path of Reincarnation were frozen in place.

An exquisite woman appeared, wearing a yellow robe and a golden mask, holding a golden scepter with three skulls hanging from her waist. She was barefoot, held aloft by the waters of the Yellow Spring River.

[Name: Gu Mengyou (9th Generation Ancestor Styx!)]

[Race: Yellow Spring Race!]

[Gender: Female!]

[Beauty: 100!]

[Figure: 100!]

[Age: 9,019,232!]

[Cultivation: Ghost Venerable Third Stage!]

[Identity: Old Ancestor of the Yellow Spring Race!]

[Favorability: 0 (Max 100!)]

[Conquest Reward: 10,000,000 pleasure points!]

...

The System immediately provided the specific information about the other party.

At this moment.

Chu Xiao couldn't care less about the System's notifications or how many pleasure points he could get by conquering her.

His heart only wished for his mother not to enter the Reincarnation Well and not to go through Reincarnation.

However, the other party's aura was far too terrifying, exceeding Chu Xiao by many major Realms; it was simply not something he could currently withstand.

Suppressed by that terrifying aura, Chu Xiao's entire body was frozen, unable to move even an inch.

Should he flee?

Was he to watch his mother enter Reincarnation with his own eyes?

Was he to leave an eternal regret in his heart?

"No!"

Chu Xiao roared inwardly with indignation.

The Ninth Generation Ancestor Styx, Gu Mengyou, walked barefoot and slowly passed by Chu Xiao. She went straight to Jiang Yuying, her pale yellow eyes looking at her with complex emotions.

She spoke in an ancient tongue, as if sighing about something.

Looking at the mysterious woman who had suddenly appeared, Jiang Yuying felt no fear; instead, she felt an indescribable sense of intimacy.

"Who are you?"

Jiang Yuying asked in confusion.

The Ninth Generation Ancestor Styx, Gu Mengyou, reached out to stroke her cheek and slowly said, "..##..##..###..!"

Her words wove into strands of runic seals, sinking into Jiang Yuying's body like fireflies—more accurately, they were branded into a restricted area deep within her Soul.

Seeing this scene.

The Ghost Official kneeling on the ground almost had his heart jump out of his chest, thinking to himself in shock, "Could she... be the Reincarnation of *that* person from the legends of the Netherworld Continent? It must be so, otherwise, why would Ancestor Styx appear in person!!!"

Jiang Yuying couldn't understand what the other party was saying, but she knew her body could move again. She slowly turned around, looking toward the direction of the voice from earlier.

She saw him!

Though he was very different from her memories!

She recognized him at a single glance—her son, Chu Xiao!

Jiang Yuying froze for a few seconds before running forward regardless of everything else, throwing her arms around Chu Xiao when she reached him.

Because she was a ghost, her arms passed right through Chu Xiao's body.

She couldn't touch him!

Tears filling her eyes, Jiang Yuying reached out her hands to try and stroke Chu Xiao's face, asking tremulously, "Xiao'er... is it you?"

At that moment.

The terrifying pressure vanished instantly.

Chu Xiao cried out, "Mom~ it's me! Chu Xiao!"

Jiang Yuying covered her mouth and nodded through her sobs, saying, "Son, why have you come here! This is no place for you! Leave quickly!"

Chu Xiao wiped the tears from his face, sniffled, and smiled excitedly. "Mom, don't worry! Your son is an Immortal now. I'm taking you home, and I will resurrect you right now!"

The Ninth Generation Ancestor Styx, Gu Mengyou, frowned and spoke in the language of the living world: "You cannot take her away."

Holding the ten-path reincarnation hell tower in one hand, Chu Xiao looked at this terrifying powerhouse of the Netherworld Hell and roared with bloodshot eyes, "No one can stop me from taking my mother today! Not even a Ghost Venerable! Otherwise, I will turn this entire Netherworld into a wasteland where not a single blade of grass grows!"

The Ghost Official sneered, "Arrogance! You are but a mere Golden Immortal, how dare you say such things! Do you even know who stands before you!"

The Ninth Generation Ancestor Styx, Gu Mengyou, slowly raised her hand, signaling the Ghost Official to be silent. She then looked at Chu Xiao and said calmly, "I know of you. You used a Divine Treasure to shatter the Ghost Gate Pass that connects the Yin and Yang worlds. You used a secret technique to devour many juniors of my Netherworld Hell's ghost races. You even made a bet with that child, Xuan Sha Gu Ming. I cannot see through your trump card; perhaps you truly do have the power to destroy the Netherworld."

"However, you cannot take her away!"
