"Junior Sister Luan Ning, you're right. What's the point of hurting each other within our own sect? There are so many sects across the Southern Region. They must have plenty of news too!"
"Junior Sister Luan Ning, you really are the best! Thanks to your reminder, we suddenly know what to do!"
"As disciples of the Southern Spirit Sect and members of the Human Race, how can we just sit here waiting for doom? We should all get moving and actively hunt down gossip for Junior Sister Lan Yue!"
"I remember the Immortal Artifact mentioning that Junior Sister Lan Yue spends all day enjoying gossip on her own, but her mental energy is limited. If someone else provides the gossip, though, it doesn't cost her any mental energy! She can even earn those points!"
"So if we all get moving and provide Junior Sister Lan Yue with all sorts of gossip, won't those points be ours for the taking? Figuring out that inheritance would be a piece of cake!"
The Southern Spirit Sect disciples exchanged excited looks.
Even Luan Ning, standing beside them, gave them an odd look, thinking that a whole new path seemed to have opened up for these people.
"Ahem, how about this? We divide up the work of gathering information, then pool everything together and check whether it's true. That way, we can avoid everyone bringing over the same gossip, and it'll be faster too."
Luan Ning cleared her throat.
Understanding dawned on everyone.
Exactly. If they all went to other sects to find gossip, what if they found the same story?
Dividing up the work was the most reliable approach!
And so, the other sects near the Southern Spirit Sect discovered that its disciples, who rarely interacted with them before, had suddenly become much friendlier.
