Chapter 428 - 424 I am the Controller
Xiao Ye was stunned by the scene before him. Following Mo Ye’s frightened gaze, he saw Tong Zhan standing calmly in the distance, his hand gripping a spear, and in his deep eyes, there was actually a kind of sorrow.
Xiao Ye’s heart slowly sank.
So there was indeed something wrong with Tong Zhan. Could he be the secret threat left by the South Emperor’s son?
After spending nearly a month together, Xiao Ye had come to appreciate Tong Zhan. But now it seemed quite possible that Tong Zhan was more of an enemy than a friend.
"Tong Zhan, we treated you as a friend, but you harbored ulterior motives. What exactly is your purpose in following us?" Prince Donghuang glared angrily at Tong Zhan, his eyes swirling with fiery rage, shielding the East Emperor’s Princess behind him and taking out a Void Artifact from his Space Ring.
After encountering the South Emperor’s son, Prince Donghuang hated people with two faces the most.
Nangong Xingyu’s robes fluttered, with starlight emerging on his body, also ready to take action at any moment.
"A friend?" Tong Zhan laughed upon hearing this, his smile filled with endless sorrow.
He slowly said, "Actually, I too considered you as friends. Unfortunately, fate has played its hand; we are not of the same kind. I am the Controller from the Third Zone."
As Tong Zhan’s words fell, he slowly spread his arms and levitated. Thick black smoke emanated from his body, his green robes rapidly decayed, and pieces of flesh fell from his body. His thick black hair withered quickly, and even the spear in his hand lost its luster.
In an instant, Tong Zhan had become like an Ancient Corpse, chilling white bones hung with skins, blood qi dried up, the vigor of life exhausted, living for over eight thousand years in an alternative form.
