The Science of Cultivation [Xianxia]
Chapter 230: Settling Doubts

“I don’t know w-what has gotten into you, but we c-can’t delay our trip,” Wei Ping’s father patiently explained. “Like I had taught y-you before, breaking the terms of contracts is a last r-resort. We can’t just give up at the first sight of a-adversity.”

“But—”

Wei Ping caught himself before continuing his words. He wanted to yell that they had to return or he would die, but he knew how stubborn his father was. He couldn’t exactly come out and say he would die if he continued this delivery. He had no proof to back up his words.

Wei Ping’s mind worked quickly in search of a plan to avoid the ambush. He tested his current capabilities to see if he could invoke any of his cultivation, but for some reason, he couldn’t access any of it. He was just a powerless young child. That’s why he focused entirely on avoiding contact with the ambushers. If convincing his dad wouldn’t work, then he had to take concrete action.

“I really n-need to relieve myself. Can you stop the carriage?”

“Umm, y-yeah. But are y-you sure you’re okay, son?”

“Yes!”
