Qing Qian Zimeng said, "It's not so hard to crack now. Three of the Nine Stars Alliance's stars have decided to surrender to us."
"What?" Bai Shi, Turbid Wine, and the others were astonished.

Lu Yang motioned for her to continue.
Qing Qian Zimeng looked slightly pleased with herself as she said, "My Purple Dream Song House sent out three beauties, who won over the guild leaders of Italy's Dark Imperial Clan, France's First Army, and China's Illusory Snow Mountain Guild within the Nine Stars Alliance.

Those guilds were not stupid either. With this arrangement, under the Iron Blood Brotherhood's protection, they could earn money without worrying about enemy sneak attacks.
Lu Yang said, "Therefore, I've decided that we will attack Suiyuan City
