Chapter 258

Outside the house.

Several vines extended from the bodies of five grey, metallic-looking trees, wrapping around the strange metal house in front of them.

"Strange. Why can't I absorb it?"

A somewhat puzzled electronic voice rang out from the giant flowerpot bases of the five trees.

Before they could figure out what was going on, a voice came from above them.

"Isn't it a bit rude of you to act like this?"

Hearing this voice, the five trees were startled, and leaves fell to the ground with a rustle.

Immediately after, a human with a ripple pattern in his left eye and a blue glow in his right eye appeared in their sensory organs.

Although they did not feel even the slightest sense of threat from this human, the five trees still cringed.

"Why is there a human here?"

"I don't know."

After a loud, secret deliberation, one of the trees that looked the most perfect in appearance used its vocal instrument to ask: "Human, this is none of your business. You had better leave quickly."

How stupid.

This was Li Ang's first reaction.

His second reaction was:

The other party has come with ill intent.

Not to mention that he currently has a pretty good relationship with the Clear-Stream Tree clan, just from a purely interest-based perspective, he couldn't just watch his client run into trouble.

Otherwise, who would pay him the remaining balance?

Thinking of this, Li Ang wore a kind smile on his face, used the Reincarnation Eye to lift the lead tree in front of him, and asked softly:

"Would you mind telling me what you are here for?"

Burned out.
