Quick Transmigration: What's Wrong with the Yandere Male Lead? It's So Good!
Chapter 38: The Cult Leader's Little Sun 6
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang's gentle gaze instantly furrowed, his eyes filled with doubt.
"It couldn't have been done by someone from my sect."
Xiao Wang's tone was very certain:
"I killed all the immoral people in the church long ago, and these people would never do such absurd things as kidnapping innocent women."
Jiang Rangrang knew in his heart that what he said was true, and it was written in the original work.
Although Xiao Wang was stubborn, domineering, and disliked people, he disliked bullying the weak even more.
For example, if someone is in danger and asks him for help, he will help and save them, but he won't expect your thanks. He'll just glare at you and tell you to stay away from him.
Although his Wuwang Sect is defined as an evil cult by the world, they only take orders to kill evil people and always have bottom lines and principles. Even if they commit evil, they would never stoop to doing such despicable things.
Jiang Rangrang sighed. She knew it was useless! The problem was, others didn't know! Reputation was sometimes still very important.
The righteous sects in the martial arts world have always regarded the Wuwang Sect as a thorn in their side and have always wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.
Now that they have such leverage, they will only wantonly smear and publicize it, throwing all the dirty water at us, and then launching a concentrated attack.
Isn't that how it was in the original story? Many people died on both sides.
She frowned and said seriously, "But now the whole martial arts world believes that you did it. It's too unfair for you to take the blame."
Xiao Wang, however, remained indifferent, his face showing no concern: "It's just idle gossip, no need to take it to heart."
How the world judges him, or how the martial arts world judges him, has never been a matter of concern to him.
Fame was of no use to him. He lived deep in the mountains and never cared about worldly gossip or slander.
"No, no! We can't ignore this!"
Jiang Rangrang sat cross-legged opposite him, tapping his left palm with the back of his right hand:
"Let me analyze it for you and you'll understand. Your thinking is completely wrong. Why should you bear such a bad reputation for no reason?"
What if those righteous people, under the guise of "eliminating cults and ridding the people of harm," start harassing your disciples every day and even besiege your home?
If you ignore the problems now, small issues will turn into a whole host of problems later.
As Xiao Wang watched her earnestly advising him and carefully analyzing the consequences for him, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
Even though he has imprisoned and offended her, she still cares about his reputation and safety.
They're adorably silly.
He sighed softly, a mixture of helplessness and indulgence, and gently patted her head, yielding tenderly.
"I'll do whatever you say. What do you think I should do?"
Jiang Rangrang had a "you're very perceptive" expression on her face, but it looked incredibly cute coming from her current expression:
"Okay, how about we set off tomorrow? To find out the truth."
"it is good."
In the evening, Jiang Rangrang finally got to eat the legendary meal prepared by the chef from the sect.
Let's just say it this way, I was even more stuffed than when I ate the roasted venison made by Xiao Wang.
[When you return to the Time Bureau after completing mission 888, remind me to buy the Gluttony item, okay?]
You can buy it now, and it's not expensive.
I know I don't really want to buy it, so I'm putting it off...
888: […]
That night, when Xiao Wang tried to hold her while she slept, Jiang Rangrang refused, saying she was afraid she wouldn't be able to get up the next day.
Xiao Wang remained silent for a while, then gave in.
Sleeping together makes it difficult to get up, because it makes it hard to fall asleep.
The next day, the two set off down the mountain. A quiet, thin man drove them in a carriage, and they rode in it.
Meanwhile, Jiang Rangrang, sitting in the carriage, racked his brains trying to figure out how to discover clues in a very natural way, and then naturally lead people to the culprit's villa.
three days later.
A group of people from the righteous sects were marching through the city to check for any suspicious individuals.
It was Jiang Rangrang's master and several senior brothers and sisters who had been investigating the case for days without any results, and each of them had a strong sense of frustration and anxiety on their faces.
Five respectable women disappeared one after another, as if they had vanished into thin air. All the witnesses gave vague accounts, only saying that they had seen a man in black.
Public opinion in the martial arts world overwhelmingly points the finger at the Wuwang Sect, which has been entrenched in the deep mountains for many years and acts in a mysterious manner.
The group originally planned to gather all the elite forces of the powerful clans to go into the mountains to wipe out the cult and rescue the missing woman, but their master stopped them.
Because all leads in the investigation have gone cold, and the murderer has vanished without a trace, it would be too impulsive to launch a siege against the cult without any evidence.
Jiang Rangrang's senior brother, Han Dong, frowned deeply: "I have absolutely no clue."
Senior Sister Miao Chuying sighed softly: "The most frustrating thing is that we have absolutely no idea where to start, and we have no idea who his next target will be."
With no clear pattern or objective, the group continued their investigation, feeling utterly frustrated.
Meanwhile, Jiang Rangrang and Xiao Wang have officially begun their investigation.
After descending the mountain, the two first settled in a small town at the foot of the mountain. While eating, they unexpectedly overheard two people at the next table slandering the Wuwang Sect.
They started whimpering and making noises, and when they noticed someone watching them, they spoke even louder.
Jiang Rangrang: "..."
Come and see! Someone's courting death. We have freedom of speech now, and even when they're cricketing someone, they know to find a secluded spot.
They're talking about "cults" in public like this; they're just asking to die sooner.
Do they really think that the way others are looking at them means they want to hear more from them?
Outsiders probably either cursed them as idiots or paid their respects to the remains.
As Xiao Wang listened to two clueless people slandering and defaming his sect, his expression darkened. It was hard to remain unmoved when someone said such things to his face.
Jiang Rangrang immediately grabbed his hand and whispered comforting words:
"Don't be alarmed. If they think it's just air, it's all fake. We'll find out the truth soon and clear the church's name."
Her soft little hand grasped his palm, warm and delicate, and Xiao Wang's tense, murderous nerves instantly relaxed.
He gently took her small hand in his, their fingers intertwined. His voice was gentle and magnetic: "I'll listen to my wife."
Jiang Rangrang blushed; it was the first time she had been called that, and she felt a little shy.
However, she hurriedly pulled her hand back, saying, "Let go quickly, or people will say we're being immoral."
Xiao Wang frowned: "Who are these other people? Why are they making such a fuss?"
Jiang Rangrang: ...I was speechless.
Yes, people in ancient times didn't have many spectators, so no one would record their lives and post them on short videos.
After dinner, the two went to the home of one of the victims. As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard a man cursing angrily inside.
"All you do is cry, cry, cry, just like your wretched mother. When you're older, I'll sell you all!"
Then came the little girl's choked sobs: "Daddy, I miss Mommy..."
"Your mother is dead! She was kidnapped by cult members and raped to death!"
Jiang Rangrang frowned and looked at Xiao Wang, who, as expected, also had his brows furrowed tightly.
The two didn't go in again and went straight to the next place.
After visiting all five families, it was clear that their situations were almost identical: the husbands of the missing women all seemed to be in poor condition.
Or their whole family has a bad reputation. Seriously, if Jiang Rangrang didn't know the truth, she would have thought that these young women ran away on their own.
