To the Lord of No Flame, whether or not he obtained this human was not actually important.
Even if this human activated the Descent Object, it would merely mean the Cruel Scholar had descended with his will.
And even if the Lord of No Flame faced the Cruel Scholar directly, he would not be at a disadvantage. He might even use the opportunity to negotiate some terms with the Cruel Scholar and gain certain benefits.
As for Bobota's belief that "only another Demon God can defeat a Demon God," that was not entirely correct.
This was also due to Bobota's lack of understanding of high-end combat power.
Demon Gods rarely fought among themselves. Supreme Demon Gods such as the Lord of Profundity would avoid stirring up trouble without cause, let alone when both he and the Cruel Scholar were Great Demon Gods.
Thus, the Lord of No Flame did not care whether this human would activate the Descent Object.
He had originally planned to teleport directly to Angel's side, but after Bobota's shout, he instead slowed his pace.
Giving Angel ample time to choose.
On the other side, Grewu's expression had originally been like a basin of stagnant water—lifeless and vacant, with nothing in the outside world able to draw its attention. Yet when it heard Bobota's shout, its ears twitched.

Thinking of this, Grewu could not wait to speak.
But
