August Planet.
The center of August City.
"Dongguan, you're here." Silverheart Marquis greeted him amiably.
"Silverheart Marquis." Dongguan nodded to him and continued inward.
His destination was the Space Tower.
"So he's the one entering the Tongtian Tower. No wonder August Venerable specifically raised the Space Tower to 899 floors two years ago." Silverheart Marquis watched Dongguan walk inside and sighed.
Silverheart Marquis had guarded the two towers for far too long. When he first began guarding them, the Space Tower had 682
floors, and it remained that way for countless years, until two years ago, when August Venerable made a rare departure from his residence.
When he looked back, the Space Tower had become 899 floors tall.
There were 108 small, ten-meter-high doors along the side of the Space Tower. Eighty-two glowed gray, while the other twenty-six were white.
As Dongguan approached one of the white doors, he saw an Immortal in dark red robes emerge from a gray door.
With his appearance, that door changed from gray to white.

"I didn't expect you to have that kind of backing. Are you planning to use it to pressure me?" Dongguan looked at him.
"What makes you say that?" Blood-Killing Marquis
