The most critical issue was the family upheaval. Although the Xin Family temporarily escaped disaster, they were targeted by the Qin Family, and the other side would not easily let them go. The roots must be eradicated, or else they'll regrow in the spring breeze.
The Qin Family is backed by the Purple Mansion forces of the Golden Palace Sect, so their concerns are well-founded.
If they form a closer alliance with the Daluo Alliance Leader, Zheng Yi, all previous worries would naturally fade away.
What bond could be tighter than becoming family?
With Zheng Yi as their backing, the Xin Family will have a place in the Daluo Alliance and won't be ostracized. At the very least, no one will dare to make overt moves against them.
If Zheng Yi gives his tacit consent, it wouldn't be difficult for the Xin Family to rise again.
