Chapter 85 - 084: The Celestial Palace Gods Capture the Monster
The Seven Fairies and others, immobilized by Wukong’s freezing spell, were finally able to move. When they opened their eyes again, they were shocked to see that all the Peaches of Immortality in the garden had been picked clean.
The Seven Fairies hurried back to Yao Pond, entered the Queen Mother’s sleeping palace, and reported to her, "Your Majesty, there’s trouble!
The Queen Mother, displeased, said, "What trouble? You’re making such a fuss."
The White-robed Fairy Maiden said, "Your Majesty, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, has stolen all the Peaches of Immortality from the Peach Garden, immobilized us with a freezing spell, and now he has escaped."
The Purple-robed Fairy Maiden said, "Your Majesty, the Great Sage has swept clean the entire garden of its Peaches of Immortality."
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother was truly shocked. She had already been notified by the Jade Emperor but had not expected Sun Wukong to be so daring as to whisk away all the Peaches of Immortality in an instant! She suddenly stood up from her couch and exclaimed loudly, "What are you saying? All the Peaches of Immortality, over three hundred thousand of them, have been taken away?"
The Blue-robed Fairy Maiden said, "Your Majesty... we were originally picking Peaches of Immortality for the Flat Peach Festival. The Great Sage suddenly immobilized us and the garden guards and warriors with a freezing spell, then used his divine powers to steal all of the peaches. We are incompetent, so please punish us, Your Majesty."
With a total of three thousand six hundred peach trees in the Peach Garden, each tree capable of bearing one hundred peaches, making a total of three hundred and sixty thousand peaches, the loss of all of them in an instant was a great one indeed. It made the Queen Mother feel as if the heavens were spinning, and she nearly fell from her couch from the shock, managing only to slowly sit back down with the help of the armrest.
Seeing the Queen Mother remained silent for a long time, the Seven Fairies grew even more fearful. The Queen Mother had always ruled with strictness, and they were very afraid of her punishment.
