To be honest, Ye Zhen did not recognize the gesture of surrender, but understood the words; the person before him was afraid to die and wanted to surrender.
Yet, in that split second, Ye Zhen hesitated for a moment. To cut the grass, you must pull out the roots—if he left such a threat behind, who knows what unexpected consequences might arise.
The main issue was that this Three-eyed Demon Marshal was too powerful, with cultivation at the Third or Fourth Stage of the Divine Communication Realm. It was only here within the Ancient Demon God Temple, supported by the Demon Marshal's Essence Orb inside the Mirage Dragon Pearl, that Ye Zhen could contend. Otherwise, with his Fifth Stage Establishment Realm cultivation, he would have fled as far and fast as possible.
A martial artist at the Fifth Stage Establishment Realm is nothing more than an ant in front of someone at the Divine Communication Realm.
