"Hm?"
As Ji Yan fell unconscious, something strange suddenly occurred in the scene.
Those "Audit Orders" that had forcibly torn apart Ji Yan's body and removed the bones of the [Time Eerie] suddenly came to a complete stop.
Then, bit by bit, they detached themselves from Ji Yan's mangled body.

"Finally... we escaped disaster."
