Before Chapter I even started, The Sphere has always been in the Emperor's possession (minus that one time where some fool stole it), no way Shadow Mind can do something without the Emperor noticing, and the best it can do while inside The Sphere is tempting people and giving them shadow power, none of those implying some form of total mind control. Plus, it has one more important priority: to break free from its prison. Until then, Shadow Mind will not waste his time trying to persuade us to kill Shadow. Shadow Mind also doesn't seems to hold some grudge against him, at least from what we've heard so far.

Yeah but I meant that maybe before trapping the Shadow Mind in sphere it possessed the emperor so that it could manipulate him. You know that would be the reason that at the end of chapter 3 the emperor enter Shadow form and lost control of himself. Instead of just getting infected from the excess of shadow energy after the rig's explosion. Maybe Shadow mind possesses people by placing one of his Shadow beast inside them.
