Two black cross-stars appeared at once, followed swiftly by Demon King Binglan and Demon King Pompo.
The difference was that a Will-o'-the-wisp Youth was now bound beside Demon King Pompo... Zhu Guo!
In truth, Zhu Guo had not fled far before falling into Demon King Pompo's hands—he could not even tell whether he had ever truly escaped Demon King Pompo's sight.
"Who's this?" Since they had returned together, Demon King Binglan instinctively asked.
"A lucky little fellow who obtained a God Card," Demon King Pompo explained briefly.
"A God Card?!"
The three Demon Kings' expressions shifted slightly... As for Brother Violent Dragon, he studied the bound Zhu Guo thoughtfully. Up close, this fellow really did resemble Old Di in his younger days... though something felt a little off.
"Surprised?" Demon King Pompo said impassively. "There's bigger trouble ahead."
The three Demon Kings grew solemn... Yes, a God Card was important, but someone still had to wield its power. And right now, an immensely powerful fellow who had possessed one for years was here!
—Gautama...
—The first person in the world to master a God Card's power!
—The supreme ruler of Central Spirit Mountain!
The Demon Kings all looked up at the great Buddha's golden body in the heavens... Their gazes were defiant. As Demon Kings, they did not fear Gautama entirely.

High above, Venerable Guanyin had seized Sun Lanbao and the mentally deficient White Dragon, rising to the same altitude as the Demon Kings.
Both captives, and enemies meeting face-to-face, Sun Lanbao and Zhu Guo, the two members of the Band of Fugitives, silently exchanged looks... Sun Lanbao's eyes practically spat fire.
After several seconds of this standoff, Guanyin broke the silence
