**Chapter 4190: A Taste of Their Own Medicine**
Without the Enlightenment Fruit, Wang Changsheng had no idea when he would be able to cultivate his laws to perfection. Besides the Enlightenment Fruit, the Myriad Wisdom Immortal Talisman and the Great Time Array were also very helpful for immortals to comprehend laws, especially the Great Time Array. However, the Great Time Array required high-grade time materials as its core, and the Skyfall Stone was a bit inferior.
He walked out into the courtyard and saw Wang Ruyan guiding Wang Yulan and Wang Rumeng in refining mid-grade Immortal Extinguishing Arrows. After guiding the clan members in refining mid-grade Immortal Extinguishing Arrows for a period, she entered seclusion for cultivation. She successfully opened eighty-four immortal apertures and advanced to the late-stage Golden Immortal realm. Her Law Tree had only grown to seventy-nine zhang, just a step away from perfection.
Although it seemed like just one step, countless Golden Immortal cultivators were stuck at this stage. Some cultivators had been in the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm for many years, yet their laws remained at minor completion. Achieving major completion of a law was a significant hurdle; it wasn't simply a matter of spending a lot of time. Perfecting a law was even more difficult.
"You two can go back and practice! The success rate is still a bit low. Practice more to improve it," Wang Ruyan instructed.
Wang Rumeng and Wang Yulan agreed and rose to leave.
"Husband, you've already perfected your laws, haven't you?" Wang Ruyan asked with a smile.
Wang Changsheng nodded and asked, "Are there any anomalies with the Chaos Beasts?"
"No, the Hulan Tribe has been crippled since the battle more than 200,000 years ago. They've been very quiet; we were overthinking it," Wang Ruyan explained.
"Oh, by the way, has Qingfeng cultivated into a peak true spirit?" Wang Changsheng remembered something and asked.
Wang Ruyan nodded and said, "Qingfeng, Qingling, Qingxiao, Qingshan, and Mengbin have all cultivated into peak true spirits."
Wang Qingfeng obtained two Golden Lotus Immortal Fruits and handed in one. Wang Qingling obtained three Nine-Yang Jade Marrow Pills and handed in one. Wang Changsheng gave the Golden Lotus Immortal Fruits and Nine-Yang Jade Marrow Pills to Wang Qingshan and Wang Mengbin, and they all cultivated into peak true spirits.
"The Golden Lotus Immortal Fruit truly lives up to its reputation as one of the Ten Great Immortal Fruits," Wang Changsheng said with a smile. With this, eight members of the Wang family had cultivated into peak true spirits. When the Golden Lotus Immortal Fruit tree matured, even more Wang family immortals would be able to cultivate into peak true spirits, perhaps even forming an army of true spirits.
"Indeed! But spreading this news would be too conspicuous. I've told them not to show off. A tall tree catches the wind. Our family doesn't have a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, so spreading this news wouldn't benefit us," Wang Ruyan said. The Wang family was just a small family, and while eight Golden Immortals had cultivated into peak true spirits, their methods varied: some relied on their own efforts, some on serendipitous encounters, and others on pills or fruits gifted by fellow clan members. Regardless, if outsiders learned that eight Golden Immortals in the Wang family had cultivated into peak true spirits, it would bring a lot of trouble and might even expose the existence of the Time Gourd.
Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "That's true. If we could advance to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, this wouldn't be an issue."
Wang Ruyan took out a blue, shimmering communication disk, infused it with a magic art, and Wang Qingcheng's low voice rang out: "Mother, we've been ambushed."
"Are you all right?" Wang Ruyan asked with a frown.
"We're not seriously hurt, but there were no survivors, so we don't know the origin of the enemies," Wang Qingcheng replied.
"Come to Green Lotus Peak and report," Wang Ruyan instructed.
"Alright, we'll be right there," Wang Qingcheng agreed.
Wang Ruyan put away the communication disk and frowned, saying, "Who did this?"
"The Murong family is highly suspect. They were already our adversaries, and Yingjie took something of theirs," Wang Changsheng speculated. Without evidence, these were all just conjectures.
Not long after, Wang Qingcheng, Sun Yuejiao, Wang Chuanming, and Cui Yao all arrived. Cui Yao was currently a mid-stage Golden Immortal and had mastered the Law of Curses. The intelligence work in the Skyfall Sea Domain was entrusted to Hua Ruxue and others, with a deputy hall master from the Dark Hall assisting.
Wang Qingcheng recounted the events. After returning to Green Lotus City, he immediately found Wang Chuanming and informed him of the situation.
"There's likely a mole within Green Lotus City. I asked Daoist Cheng and Madam Cheng, and they didn't reveal the whereabouts of Ancestor Qingcheng and Ancestor Yuejiao to any third party. Ancestor Qingcheng and Ancestor Yuejiao left Green Lotus City publicly, and many cultivators saw them, so the chances of someone tipping off the enemy are high. As long as the enemy could deduce they were returning to the Skyfall Sea Domain, they could ambush them en route," Wang Chuanming analyzed.
"How many people know you've returned safely now?" Wang Changsheng asked.
"Besides Daoist Cheng and Madam Cheng, only Father, Mother, Chuanming, and Cui Yao know," Wang Qingcheng truthfully replied.
"Ancestor, Young Friend Song's innate divine ability can be put to good use. We can have Ancestor Qingcheng and Ancestor Yuejiao make a public appearance, claiming they're searching for an internal mole, which would force the mole to expose themselves. I'll also investigate secretly; we'll approach this with a two-pronged strategy," Wang Chuanming suggested.
"Can Young Friend Song detect communications from Golden Immortal cultivators?" Wang Changsheng asked.
"If a Golden Immortal cultivator intentionally guards against it, then naturally not. But for True Immortal cultivators, unless they possess rare treasures or high-grade immortal talismans, he can detect them. However, he needs to continuously use his innate divine ability, and we've already conducted many experiments," Wang Chuanming explained.
"Then let's give it a try! Also, find out the movements of the Murong family's high-ranking members," Wang Changsheng instructed.
"Ancestor, if we can get their essence blood, hair, or split souls, I'm confident I can severely injure or even kill them. Obtaining the essence blood, hair, or split souls of Murong Yilong's direct descendants would also work," Cui Yao volunteered.
"This can also be done, but it's not suitable for us to appear in person. It's fine to spend a few more immortal essence stones," Wang Changsheng instructed.
"Ancestor, I have a way to hire the Palace of Yama to act on our behalf. I hear their fees are quite high," Wang Chuanming said.
"Palace of Yama? How did you come into contact with this organization?" Wang Ruyan asked, puzzled.
"When I was communicating with a few intelligence dealers, they mentioned the Palace of Yama and knew of one of their strongholds. However, we'd need a Yama Token for them to do business with us," Wang Chuanming explained.
"What exactly is the Palace of Yama?" Wang Changsheng asked. He clearly remembered that the Palace of Yama had once sent Golden Immortal cultivators to ambush Wang Yingjie.
"The Palace of Yama is an assassin organization. They take people's money to eliminate trouble for them. I hear they have Grand Unity Golden Immortals backing them," Wang Chuanming said. He didn't know much about the Palace of Yama, only that they worked for money and had no personal allegiances.
"You are responsible for this matter. First, find the mole, then hire the Palace of Yama to act. Remember, do not use your true appearance or real identity when dealing with their cultivators," Wang Changsheng cautioned.
"Yes, leave it to me," Wang Chuanming readily agreed.
Wang Changsheng gave a few more instructions, then dismissed them.
"I hope the Palace of Yama succeeds," Wang Ruyan said. Whether or not the Murong family hired assassins to deal with Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao, they would still deal with the Murong family. If a problem could be solved with money, that was for the best.
"Find out the movements of the Murong family's high-ranking members. As long as they dare to leave the city, I can act personally," Wang Changsheng said, his face filled with murderous intent. With perfected Soul Law and Dao arts, he was very confident he could eliminate Murong Yilong, especially with Wang Ruyan's assistance.
Wang Ruyan nodded in deep agreement.
