I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 516 Treasure Lotus Lantern Battle

Upon seeing Sun Wukong suddenly appear before her, the Third Holy Mother's expression changed drastically. She immediately put away her brocade cassock, then stood up and shouted, "Where did this wild monkey come from, daring to trespass into my room!"

Sun Wukong said, "You ungrateful little girl, don't you even recognize your own Grandpa Sun?"

"Hmph!" The Third Holy Mother snorted coldly and said, "I am the daughter of the Great Emperor of the Western Mountain, a noblewoman of high birth. How could I possibly know a rude monkey?"

Sun Wukong sneered and said, "Fine, fine, let's see if you, as a noble emperor, can withstand my golden cudgel." With that, he swung the cudgel directly at the Third Holy Mother.

Seeing this, the Third Holy Mother drew her sword to block, and with a crisp metallic clang, the sword in her hand broke into four or five pieces.

The Third Holy Mother herself was sent flying by the power of the Golden Cudgel, crashing through the immortal dwelling and landing heavily on the ground, rolling more than ten feet before stopping.

She had just stopped when she heard a loud crash in front of her. Looking up, she saw that Sun Wukong had smashed her fairy house to pieces.

Then Sun Wukong soared into the air, wielding his golden cudgel, and flew towards her.

The Holy Mother was terrified and immediately asked, "Who are you? Why are you my enemy for no reason?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong immediately stopped and said, "You're about to die and you're still pretending to be stupid! You ordered the Seven Fairies to steal my master's cassock and travel permit, and you still dare to put on an act here? You deserve to be beaten!"

"What?! I ordered someone to steal your master's cassock?!" Upon hearing this, the Third Holy Mother was filled with disbelief and said, "As the daughter of the Great Emperor of the Western Peak, the dignified Third Holy Mother of Mount Hua, what treasures don't I have? Why would I need to steal them?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong frowned and asked, "Then where did you get that cassock in your hand?"

The Third Holy Mother asked, "You mean that cassock from earlier?"

“That’s right.” Sun Wukong said, “That’s the brocade cassock that Guanyin Bodhisattva gave to my master. It was stolen by thieves not long ago. How did it end up in your hands?”

The Third Holy Mother said, "That was given to me by my sister Hongluo."

Sun Wukong asked, "The Red Silk Fairy among the Seven Fairies?"

“That’s right,” said the Third Holy Mother. “She said it was a cassock made by the Weaver Girl and that she had given it to me as a gift.”

Sun Wukong laughed upon hearing this and said, "You still call her your sister, but little do you know that she has taken advantage of you. What cassock made by the Weaver Girl? This is clearly a cassock bestowed upon my master by the Bodhisattva."

"After all that talk about your master," the Third Holy Mother said, "who exactly is your master? And who are you?"

Without saying a word, Sun Wukong held up his golden cudgel in front of her and asked, "Do you recognize the words on this?"

The Holy Mother of the Three Kingdoms looked up and stared intently, then exclaimed, "The Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Cudgel)?"

A moment later, her expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed in astonishment, "Are you the Monkey King, Sun Wukong?"

Sun Wukong snorted and said, "So you finally recognize your Grandpa Sun. Quickly hand over the cassock."

Upon hearing this, the Holy Mother of the Third Palace said, "I have no enmity with the Great Sage, yet he has been disrespectful to me. First, he trespassed into my monastery, then he injured someone, and now he wants to be my grandfather. What kind of logic is this?"

Sun Wukong said, "You had someone steal my master's cassock, and you still have the nerve to complain?"

"Don't wrong an innocent person." The Third Holy Mother stood up and said, "This was given to me by Hong Luo and the others. I certainly didn't ask them to steal it. If I'm lying, may I be struck down by heaven and earth!"

Seeing that she had spoken so harshly, Sun Wukong couldn't help but believe her a little. He put away his golden cudgel and urged her, "Then don't say any more. Just return the cassock to me and we'll be fine today."

“Apologize first,” said the Third Holy Mother. “After you apologize, I will return the robe to you.”

Sun Wukong said, "Give me back the cassock first. I, Old Sun, am upright and honest. Once I get the cassock, I will know that you have nothing to do with this matter, and I will naturally apologize to you."

The Third Holy Mother said, "Why can't you apologize first?"

Sun Wukong said, "If you don't return the cassock, you can't clear your name. What if I apologize first and you still don't return the cassock?"

The Holy Mother of the Three Realms said, "I am innocent. This is a completely undeserved disaster. How can I return your cassock if you don't apologize? As long as the Great Sage apologizes, I will return the cassock to you immediately."

Sun Wukong said, "No, I have already been deceived by the seven fairies, and I am afraid of being deceived again. If you do not return the cassock first, I will not apologize."

The Holy Mother said calmly, "If you don't apologize, I won't return the robe."

Sun Wukong's gaze sharpened, and he gripped his golden cudgel tightly, saying, "Do you still want to taste the flavor of my old Sun's iron cudgel?"

The Holy Mother of the Three Kingdoms took something directly from her sleeve. When Sun Wukong looked closely, he saw that it was an antique, exquisite lotus lamp.

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "It's not dark yet, what are you doing with a lamp?"

The Holy Mother of the Three Kingdoms smiled, then her expression changed. She immediately retreated more than three zhang and said to Sun Wukong, "Great Sage Equal to Heaven, if you don't apologize first today, you can forget about taking this cassock back."

"Hey!" Sun Wukong sneered and said, "What a naughty girl! Well, today I, Old Sun, will teach you a lesson on behalf of the Great Emperor of the Western Mountain, you disobedient little girl."

After saying that, Sun Wukong raised his golden cudgel and struck directly at the Third Holy Mother.

Upon seeing this, the Third Holy Mother immediately reached out and slapped the Lotus Lantern. The Lotus Lantern immediately flew to the top of the Third Holy Mother's head, and the colorful and exquisite lampshade and four colorful tassels immediately began to spin.

In an instant, the Lotus Lantern emitted a thousand-foot-long red light, which shone on Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong let out a miserable scream in mid-air. When the red light shone on him, he felt the same way he was being suppressed by the Five Elements Mountain, as if even his bones were about to be crushed.

But three breaths later, another powerful force surged forth, directly sending Sun Wukong flying.

Watching Sun Wukong fly out of Qingyuan Mountain, the Third Holy Mother couldn't help but smile smugly. She put the Lotus Lantern in her hand and said, "As expected of Lingtai Zhenjun's magic weapon, it is indeed extraordinary. Even the Great Sage Equaling Heaven is no match for it."

After saying this, the Third Holy Mother put the Lotus Lantern into her sleeve. Looking at the fairy abode that Sun Wukong had destroyed, she used her magic to restore it with a wave of her hand.

Meanwhile, Sun Wukong, who had been thrown back, landed at the foot of the mountain. After getting up, he quickly checked his body and found no signs of injury or damage. His indestructible body was still very strong.

But the power of that instant made Sun Wukong feel as if he were being suppressed by the Five Elements Mountain again, which truly made him shudder.

"What kind of treasure is that lamp?" Sun Wukong was not as agitated as usual, but calmed down and pondered carefully.

After an unknown amount of time, Sun Wukong flew back into Qingyuan Mountain and roared like thunder, "Female bandit leader, come out!"

The Holy Mother of the Three Kingdoms quickly flew out of the temple and was greatly surprised to see Sun Wukong return. She thought to herself, "How come he doesn't have a single injury on him?"

After a moment, the Third Holy Mother asked, "Great Sage, have you come back to apologize?"

Sun Wukong laughed and said, "So that's why you're so arrogant, little girl. You have such a treasure. You've got some resources after all."

The Third Holy Mother said, "The Great Sage is no ordinary man. He was struck by my Lotus Lantern and yet he is completely unharmed. I admire him."

Sun Wukong said, "I, Old Sun, possess an indestructible body. Your treasure can only temporarily repel me, not harm me. I think you should return the cassock to me. As soon as I get the cassock, I will apologize to you immediately, how about that?"

The Holy Mother of the Three Kingdoms shook her head and said, "Great Sage, I still maintain that I will apologize first and then return the cassock."

Sun Wukong said, "So there's nothing to talk about?"

The Holy Mother of the Three Kingdoms then brought out the Lotus Lantern and said, "If the Great Sage wants to talk, then let's talk through my Lotus Lantern."

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong immediately activated his Fiery Eyes and shot two beams of golden light towards the Third Holy Mother.

The Third Holy Mother hurriedly activated the Lotus Lantern. The next moment, the fiery golden light met the red light of the Lotus Lantern. In an instant, the fiery golden light was shattered, and the thousand-foot red light continued to shine towards Sun Wukong.

Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong quickly cast an invisibility spell to hide himself, and then leaped onto his somersault cloud to evade, but the red light indeed shone into nothingness.

The Third Holy Mother frowned, about to search for Sun Wukong's location, when suddenly the Lotus Lantern above her head emitted a red light behind her.

Immediately afterward came Sun Wukong's cry of pain from behind. Turning around, he saw that Sun Wukong had been sent flying again by the Lotus Lantern.

The Third Holy Mother was startled and said, "Fortunately, this Lotus Lantern has the power to protect its master, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

But she wasn't particularly happy to see Sun Wukong being sent flying again. "He can't be hurt from the front, and he might not be able to be hurt from the back either. He is the Great Sage Equal to Heaven after all. This Lotus Lantern can only repel him. I'm afraid he won't give up."

Just as the Third Holy Mother had predicted, not long after Sun Wukong was sent flying, he came knocking on their door again.

Sun Wukong and the Third Princess fought more than ten times. Sun Wukong used all his skills, but each time he was directly knocked away by the Lotus Lantern.

Later on, the Third Holy Mother became extremely sensitive. As soon as she heard the slightest sound or saw Sun Wukong, she would immediately activate the Lotus Lantern.

After doing this more than twenty times, Sun Wukong lost his temper. He couldn't handle the Lotus Lantern, so he couldn't defeat the Third Holy Mother, and he couldn't get the cassock back.

With no other options available, Sun Wukong had to think of another way. After much deliberation, he said, "Since we cannot defeat her by force, we must use our wits... We still need to find someone who can subdue the Third Holy Mother."

A moment later, Sun Wukong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he clapped his hands, saying, "Why don't we go directly to the Great Emperor of the Western Mountain? It's only natural for a father to discipline his daughter. If he doesn't comply, we'll turn his Western Mountain Divine Palace upside down."

Thinking of this, Sun Wukong stopped going into the mountain to continue entangled with the Third Holy Mother, and instead rode his somersault cloud directly to Mount Hua in the west.

Upon arriving at Mount Hua in the west, Sun Wukong immediately transformed his golden cudgel into a hundred-zhang thick and ten-thousand-zhang long staff, and slammed it down upon Mount Hua.

The golden cudgel, like a pillar of heaven, pierced through the heavy clouds and fell down, crushing a mountain peak before crashing to the ground. A thunderous roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and the entire Mount Hua in the west trembled violently. The earth shook and the mountains shuddered, as if it were the end of the world.

As for the Western Peak Divine Palace in the mountains, it was bounced more than ten feet high. After landing, the house was crooked, the pillars collapsed, the ground cracked, and people and horses were overturned.

The Great Emperor of the Western Peak lay sprawled on the tilted table, his face filled with shock and panic. "What happened?"

Empress Xiyue paled and, supported by her maids, rose to her feet and asked, "Was it an earthquake?"

But the divine generals, attendants, and maids outside were also lying on the ground, having just gotten up, and they all looked bewildered.

But soon a voice rang out, shaking the entire Western Mountain Divine Palace: "I am the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong, and I have come to question you. People of the Divine Palace, come out and see me at once!"

Upon hearing this voice, the Great Emperor of the Western Peak was both shocked and bewildered. "The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong? Instead of protecting Tang Sanzang on his journey to the West, why is he causing trouble here? Is he here to interrogate me? What crime?"

Nevertheless, the Great Emperor of the Western Mountain immediately instructed his maids to tidy his clothes and appearance, and then hurriedly led the Empress out to greet him. (End of Chapter)
