- Demon Sorcerers - Shendu's siblings, who are trapped in the Demon Netherworld after the Eight Immortals banished them there and sealed off their portals using the Pan Ku Box. After possessing Valmont while trapped in his body as a result of the Sorcerers' spell, Shendu manipulates the Dark Hand into stealing the Pan Ku Box, which he cannot touch because it is made from good magic, and plans to free them, only for Uncle to cast a spell to banish them using the items that the Immortals used to do so. Shendu's spirit later returns and possesses Jackie to access the Book of Ages and rewrite history to one in which he and the Sorcerers were not defeated and rule over Earth, which Jade is unaffected by because she possesses the page about her. After the Sorcerers are defeated and returned to the Demon Netherworld, Jade reinserts her page into the Book of Ages and restores reality to normal. In season five, their Chi is revealed to be stored in objects that their nephew Drago seeks to obtain to gain power from their Chi; however, each time he does so, the Chans remove the Chi from him.
- Po Kong (voiced by Mona Marshall) - The Mountain Demon and Shendu's sister, who has a ravenous appetite and prefers to feed on humans. Her portal is located on an island in Tokyo Bay, Japan; after being freed and attacking Japan, she is defeated by an army of magically cloned Jades and banished to the Netherworld. In "Demon World", she rules over Japan and has enslaved humans mine salt for her meals. Her Chi is found in a pair of chopsticks made from the drumsticks used to play the drum that defeated her, which Tohru is infused with after using the chopsticks, causing him to go on a feeding frenzy and transform into a demon resembling her. When Drago and his crew attack the Chans, Tohru uses this strength to fight Drago before he absorbs the Chi, returning him to normal.
- Xiao Fung (voiced by Glenn Shadix) - The Wind Demon, who possesses the power of shapeshifting and the ability to suck in huge breaths and release them as blasts of air at high speeds. His portal is located in a prison in the United States[1], which he considers to be "a paradise" compared to the Netherworld, but after he is freed, the Chans banish him to the Netherworld. In "Demon World", he rules over Mexico and is implied to rule over South America with Paco as his servant, and is shown watching El Toro and another wrestler fight to the death. When Drago arrives at a car wash searching for the fan containing his Chi, Jade absorbs the Chi and uses it to fight him and his Enforcers.
- Tchang Zu (voiced by Clancy Brown) - The Thunder Demon, who is arrogant and dislikes Shendu, seeing himself as his master rather than his brother. He possesses the ability to control electricity and lightning. His portal is located in Megagalactic Studios in Hollywood; after being freed, he learns that his palace was paved over to build a parking lot and attempts to reclaim the Chinese Theatre as his palace, but the Chans banish him to the Netherworld. In "Demon World", Tchang Zu battles the Chans, but is banished by Paco. His Chi is contained in castanets which grant Drago the power of lightning after he obtains them.
- Tso Lan (voiced by Glenn Shadix) - The Moon Demon, who possesses the powers of gravity manipulation and telekinesis. His portal is located between Earth and the Moon, which the Dark Hand and Shendu reach using Earth's space system. After being freed, Tso Lan prepares to move the moon out of its orbit and destroy Earth's ecosystem to make it more suitable for him to live on, but Jackie, Jade, and Tohru banish him to the Netherworld using the Lotus Pod. In "Demon World", he is one of the four final demons to be banished, with El Toro attempting to use the Rooster Talisman to fight him. When Drago comes to a zoo searching for the Lotus Pod containing his Chi, his Chi is released and ends up in a panda while Drago fights the Chans. While Uncle removes the Chi from the panda, the containment unit breaks and Dai Gui and Tso Lan's Chi are released, with Drago gaining Tso's power and Jackie gaining Dai's power before both Chi are recovered.
- Dai Gui (voiced by Frank Welker) - The Earth Demon, who is strong but unintelligent and dislikes Shendu as well as flowers, which were the item used to banish him. He has the ability to burrow underground and move like a shark. His portal is located in Spain, where he attempts to dig a new kingdom underground, but is defeated by Jackie using the Armor of the Gods, an item related to the Eight Immortals. In "Demon World", Dai Gui is one of the last four demons to be banished, being implied to rule over Iberia and Europe before Tohru defeats him and he is banished. His Chi is found in a flower and used by Jackie and Jade's friend Larry.
- Hsi Wu (voiced by André Sogliuzzo) - The Sky Demon, who is small and physically weak, but the fastest of the Sorcerers. His portal is located outside the women's bathroom in Fenway Park. After being freed, Jade accidentally breaks off his tail, forcing him to flee after hearing Uncle and Jackie playing the flute used to banish him. After Uncle casts a spell preventing demons from entering the shop unless they are invited, Hsi Wu disguises himself as the human Seymour Jahoositz and befriends Jade to gain access to the shop and retrieve his tail. When Jade invites him to the spring dance, his true identity is exposed and he kidnaps Uncle, threatening to kill him if he does not undo the spell. Using the power of the Rabbit and Rooster Talismans, Jade pursues him across the industrial district and releases his tail, allowing Jackie to play the flute and banish him to the Netherworld. In "Demon World," he is shown ruling from atop a tower with Viper as his slave until Jackie plays the flute and banishes him to the Netherworld. When Drago and the Chans arrive at an amusement park searching for his Chi, which is contained in the flute, it ends up in Mrs. Hartman, Jade's teacher, causing her to mutate into a demon resembling Hsi Wu. However, she is returned to normal and convinced that the experience was a bad dream.
- Bai Tza (voiced by Mona Marshall) - The Water Demon, who is cruel and intelligent and is seemingly the closest to Shendu of the Sorcerers, but despises him for his repeated failures. She ruled over Atlantis until it was destroyed and seeks to flood San Francisco, the location of her portal, and make it her new kingdom. She is banished back to the Netherworld, along with Jade, who was accidentally sent there, which leads to Shendu's banishment. In "Demon World", she fights Viper until being banished.
