By the time Xu Yuan and Ying'er, having met up with Ran Qingmo midway, returned to the ruins of the Xu Residence estate, Xu Changge had already been waiting inside for quite a while.
This, Xu Yuan was not surprised by.
Just moments after Ying'er had set him down on the rooftop of a building in the marketplace, he noticed that this older brother had already appeared above the Xu Residence.
However, at that time, the other party had merely glanced at him from afar before descending directly into the residence.
At this moment, Xu Changge sat quietly on a large stone, his eyes lowered as he fiddled with an ancient ring, his robe of azure undisturbed by any dust, fluttering in the wind.
Approaching closer, Xu Yuan was drawn to a blood-stained cloth package next to Xu Changge.
He remembered that his brother seemed to possess the Sumeru Ring, so why not put it into the ring?
With slight hesitation, he extended his will-spirit to see what was inside the package.
