Having traveled extensively over the years, this was the first time he heard of a mysterious power that could harm someone from a distance without the need to exert effort.
"Headache, hungry, no energy, feeling miserable all over, don’t want to talk~"
Forced by the fact that the Seventh Uncle was an elder, Yun Wanye opened his eyes and replied weakly.
"Is this really the aftermath of such an attack?"
Unharmed physically, but looking very unwell mentally. No wonder it was called spiritual power; suddenly, Yun Wanchen’s eyes filled with deeper interest.
"What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone prepare it for you."
"Congee, I guess. Hungry as I am, I have no appetite~"
"Alright, okay."
"..."
After four whole days of rest, Yun Wanye and Yun Wanqing finally fully recovered their vitality.
Under the joint questioning of Yun Zheng, Yun Zhan, Yun Wanchen, Yun Wanyao, and others, Yun Wanye earnestly recounted his feelings before and after the attack.
"At the time, it felt as if I were targeted by an invisible force, unable to move at all, then a sharp pain pierced my mind, and my consciousness immediately fell into darkness."
"You all know what I was like after waking up, so I probably don’t need to say more, right?"
Is that really what happened?
They all fell into deep thought, growing increasingly aware of the mysteriousness of the power, with its only flaw being that the attacker also suffered severe after-effects.
What they did not know was, Yun Wanqing experienced these so-called after-effects only because she was too young, had not been reborn here long enough to cultivate much, and had only managed to gather a faint trace, thus her spiritual power was so weak it was almost negligible.
She needed to drain all her strength just to barely knock an adult unconscious.
If she were to cultivate in the future and her spiritual power broke through to a certain level, this situation would not occur at all, and its power would become unimaginably strong.
"Dad, after I passed out, did you send someone to Zuixiang Building to inform Wei Chaohui and the others? Did anything happen to them?"
Recalling Wei Chaohui and the heartfelt thoughts of Yun Wanqing that day, Yun Wanye couldn’t help but worry, fearing that even if he didn’t go, those people might still be unable to escape fate and cause some trouble that would be difficult to resolve.
"I sent Lu Wu to tell them, and we’ve been monitoring them secretly all along. The Zhu Family’s boy did act a bit strangely after seeing the boy from Changle Marquis Mansion, but Lu Wu stopped him discreetly."
"Everything is fine with those people now; they successfully avoided this disaster."
Yun Zheng simply recounted what happened that day.
After hearing this, Yun Wanye was immediately relieved and exhaled deeply.
"That’s good, that’s good~"
"The events at Zuixiang Building that day were exactly as Xiao Si said. Yun Wanye, if it weren’t for Xiao Si, you, along with those boys, would have been completely finished this time. What do you think?"
Yun Zheng stood with one hand behind his back, lifting his chin to look at the handsome and spirited young man, his eyes carrying a hint of sternness.
Yun Wanye hung his head, feeling both fearful and immensely grateful.
Thank heaven for blessing him with a little sister.
The little sister must be his little lucky star come to save him.
"Dad, I was wrong. From now on, I will drink less, think carefully before acting, and never act rashly or impulsively."
He made his promise with utmost seriousness.
This time, Yun Wanqing’s heartfelt words truly frightened him, and also made him realize very clearly that one careless move could turn him from a noble heir into a criminal, dispatched to the border to build fortifications.
His friends would also be implicated, facing beheading or banishment.
Before this, if someone had told him that one day he would become a criminal and be exiled, he would have laughed his head off.
But from now on, he couldn’t even muster a smile.
"Well, I hope after this incident, you will learn a lesson and not behave like before—young and arrogant, heedless and haughty."
"You must remember that one false step could lead to disaster. As the saying goes: a single thought can mean the difference between heaven and hell; one impulse can send you from heaven to hell."
"If you truly commit an irreparable mistake, by then it would be too late to regret~"
Yun Zheng’s words were earnest and heartfelt, hoping he would take at least part of it to heart.
He had been through this age himself, naturally understanding the temperament of that age, and knew that if no one held them in check, or if they couldn’t discern right from wrong, acting without consideration, it would be all too easy to cause catastrophe.
After receiving his father’s teachings, Yun Wanye went to Wan’an Garden to see the fully recovered Yun Wanqing.
By the window on the beauty couch, a maid was teasing Yun Wanqing with a kite, treating her completely like a newborn, which left Yun Wanqing speechless.
