"How is this possible?!"
The Devil Ancestor was horrified to discover that he could no longer control his own body.
Then, when the Heavenly Emperor told him to kill himself on the spot, his body actually began to move. Controlling the Demon Bone Heavenly Venerable, it raised the bone blade and slashed at its own head!
"Impossible! Why is this happening?!"
The Devil Ancestor's eyes bulged wide as they nearly split apart, and he fought back with all his might!
"You still have the strength to resist. It seems that against an expert of the same level, even the King of Dominion's ability cannot achieve complete control."
The Heavenly Emperor let out a regretful sigh.
Clearly, the degree of control was not as effective as he had imagined.
"What a pity. If you had obediently listened to me, perhaps both your daughter's life and your own could have been spared."
The Heavenly Emperor shook his head.
According to the original plan, the Devil Ancestor would enter the center of the Ashen World and seize the Sun Essence.
Madam Xuan had told him that the Sun Essence was not so easily approached. The Sun Dominator had also left behind certain measures there!
That was why the Heavenly Emperor had wanted to control Ink Shadow and make the Devil Ancestor obey him. So long as he obtained the Sun Essence, he would have been willing to spare both the Devil Ancestor and Ink Shadow.
After all, if everything had proceeded according to the original plan, the Devil Ancestor would most likely have been crippled after helping him seize the Sun Essence and would no longer pose any threat.
Yet now, the Devil Ancestor would rather personally kill his own daughter than submit to the Heavenly Emperor. Things had slipped beyond his control!
