Having lost face to a Lower Sect, the Yin Wind Gate was bound to retaliate to maintain its dignity as one of the Higher Teachings. However, if they were slighted by the Flying Feather Immortal Palace, which was also one of the Higher Teachings, the Yin Wind Gate, despite any dissatisfaction, would not pay it much mind. It was common for Higher Teachings to suffer losses at each other's hands; such incidents wouldn't damage their prestige.
If they did decide to pursue it, Xu Xing would actually welcome it. After all, he was alone, and the Yin Wind Gate's retaliation would likely target the well-established Flying Feather Immortal Palace, not him. They wouldn't be able to find him. A Nascent Soul Daoist Lord was not so easily dealt with.
If not for their concern over the Starfall Sect's foundation, Greedy Wolf Dao Monarch and Jade Balance Taoist Lord might not have feared the Yin Wind Gate's retaliation. Having concerns created vulnerabilities.
