It's not like it's going to be easy for yip to run away. He's got to stay alive long enough to watch him die, and that's just not worth it. Anran tells the puppet master to keep fighting while he's alive, because if he doesn't, yip won't be able to sacrifice his life for the sake of the game. The two of them find a spot on the ground where they can watch the enemy attack, and Anran orders the puppet to pull the distance away at full speed. The next time, he says, they'll go ahead and do it.
