To be honest, Ye Zhen did not recognize that gesture of surrender, but he understood the words. This fellow before him was terrified of death and wanted to surrender.
Yet in that instant, Ye Zhen still hesitated slightly. One had to pull up the weeds by the roots; if he left behind such a calamity, who knew what accidents might arise?
The main reason was that this Three-Eyed Demon Commander was simply too powerful, with cultivation at the third or fourth level of the Spirit-Connecting Realm. It was only within this Ancient Demon God Hall, with the Demon Marshal Essence Soul Pearl inside the Mirage Dragon Pearl supporting him, that Ye Zhen could stand against him. Otherwise, with Ye Zhen's fifth-level Palace Opening Realm cultivation, he would have fled as far as he possibly could.
A fifth-level Palace Opening Realm martial artist was an absolute ant before a Spirit-Connecting Realm existence.
Ye Zhen had experienced this before. Before the pseudo-Spirit-Connecting Realm First Level cultivation of the Demon Marshal Essence Soul Pearl in his possession, even early Dao Entry Realm martial artists were ants.
"I, Ji Hua, swear in the name of a noble before the Ancient Demon God. I hereby beg to surrender in exchange for a chance to live! At the same time, according to the rules between nobles, I shall pay a ransom commensurate with my status!"
Seeing Ye Zhen's killing intent blaze, Three-Eyed Demon Commander Ji Hua knelt there and raised his hand in oath. Yet as he swore, the radiance emitted by the pearl above his head continued to resist attacks coming from all directions.
Of course, the Demonic Spirit Trebuchets poised to strike did not count. If the Demonic Spirit Trebuchets launched another bombardment, they might well kill Ji Hua.
Hundreds and thousands of thoughts
