Among the great sects under heaven, Jiang Wang had indeed never heard of the Great Void Sect.
But the sect Chongxuan Yuanhu had personally come out to greet could not possibly be some insignificant household.
Besides, the name "Great Void" made it impossible not to draw certain associations.
Jiang Wang asked whenever he didn't know something. "What kind of sect is the Great Void Sect?"
"The Great Void Sect, uh..." Chongxuan Laifu faltered, clearly not knowing much about it either. He had probably only heard the name Great Void Sect today.
"The Great Void Sect is a reclusive sect that rarely appears in the world." Chongxuan Hengsheng suddenly snorted. "Someone from the countryside like you wouldn't know about it, of course!"
He certainly had sharp ears.
He'd heard Jiang Wang and Chongxuan Laifu's quiet conversation perfectly clearly.
"You just said they rarely appear in the world. It's only natural that someone as young as me wouldn't know about them." Jiang Wang smiled, unbothered. "You're a respected elder. Please bear with me."
In his mind, this Family Elder's fate was already sealed. He'd never seen anyone come out ahead against Chongxuan Fatty, so there was really nothing worth quibbling over.
Besides, picking a fight with one of the Chongxuan Family's Family Elders—especially in front of Chongxuan Yuanhu—would be wrong, no matter how much reason he had on his side. He might not care what people thought of him, but he couldn't ignore the effect it might have on Chongxuan Sheng.

Chongxuan Hengsheng was even more annoyed. He would have preferred a round of verbal sparring to being met with such a soft-spoken barb.
You're the one who's ignorant and uncultured,
