All the invaders of China have either been assimilated or left! China has been invaded more times then history records. Starting (according to the latest information) Egyptians before the common era.
The two routes of conquest from the middle east (excluding the sea routes) just are not compatible with camels! That is a lot of land to cover and to maintain a line of communication. Often by the time an invading army could get to China it would no longer contain members of the starting force.
While several invasions have taken place from bordering locations into Europe- the reverse just has not been successful. The Mongrels and the Huns were pretty autonomous fighting units that did not maintain communications with the "Home land" (for want of a better term).
Consider Alexander the Great who got bogged down in India. It is a logistics nightmare!
