When this middle-aged man, who called himself Yang Xiu of the Knife River Gate, said he hadn't heard of the Changhe Arrow Sect, Li Changhe had a feeling that something was off. People show respect to each other.
In the martial arts world, this is even more evident.
Huang You claimed to be the Master of the Kunlun Cave, and Li Changhe greeted him with admiration.
If Huang You hadn't really heard of the Changhe Arrow Sect, the next thing he would have said was likely an apology for not recognizing Li Changhe's sect.
Then they would have mutually praised each other's businesses and saved face for each other.
Those newly emerging small martial arts sects needed some achievements to proclaim their sect's reputation.
Li Changhe had planned to follow this path as the Changhe Arrow Sect didn't really exist.
His intention was to give Huang You the impression that they were a recently rising martial arts sect.
