"Xuantian Realm" is a full-dive xianxia online game.
Lin Yuqing takes advantage of the game's popularity to gather materials, make pills, and repair equipment every day, earning a decent amount of money.
Where there are people, there's the jianghu.
But where there are people, there's also gossip aplenty.
One day, Lin Yuqing was gathering herbs on a sheer cliff. The spot was secluded, and she never expected to overhear a juicy secret.
Within days, the people involved were arguing up a storm in the world chat.
As the only person who had witnessed the whole affair, Lin Yuqing was bursting with things to say but had no one to tell.
Talking about it in the world chat might offend a powerful player.
Talking about it in her guild wasn't safe either, with so many people and loose lips.
So Lin Yuqing simply started chatting with customers while setting up her stall.
They were all just passing through, and nobody knew each other.
At worst, she could just keep changing maps to set up shop.
But she kept hearing more and more gossip.
And more and more people came to her stall to buy things.
On the game forum, everyone was discussing where the lifestyle player selling gossip at her stall was now, and whether she had any new gossip to share.
