"Marriage alliances" are a universal tool in the civilized world to strengthen connections, from aristocratic clans to martial arts sects, and even between nations, they are very fond of this method.

Lu Yao had reached the Spirit Refinement of Divine Fetal Breathing, and had two senior sisters who had achieved Blood-Exchange + Firmness; this represented a formidable force not to be underestimated, and not everyone qualified for a marriage alliance with them.
Li Pei's family had fallen in the power struggle, and logically, they had already lost the qualifications.
She even solemnly reminded them, "Having been in power for many years, my family has made countless enemies in court. There will inevitably be those who kick us while we're down, and from now on, you should no longer associate with me."
Liao Ya and Liao Qe exchanged glances, then both stepped forward to take Li Pei's arms, one on each side.
