"Are you planning to sneak into the banquet and then strike?"
"That's one option, but sneaking in won't be easy. The Zhang Family only invited people with wealth and influence. If we used the Origin Sect's name, we'd stand a decent chance of getting in."

Its influence had long since extended beyond a single region or prefecture.
Even in other prefectures, simply mentioning the Origin Sect's name would usually earn them preferential treatment.
