Because right now, nobody from Old Master Xiao's side dares to make a move, all because of the critical figure that is Situ Xin. From this incident with the Xiao Family and Xiao Yanlei, everyone has become aware of Situ Xin's capability. They are frightened that if they take any action and manage to release Xiao Yanlei from the Disciplinary Committee, it would anger Situ Xin, who might then turn his spearhead towards them.
So, after discussing it, they unanimously decided to have Old Master Xiao visit the Situ Family and meet with Old Master Situ. Old Master Xiao and Old Master Situ were once comrades-in-arms, their relationship used to be quite good.
