The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 791


    Could the pir be eaten?


    Of course not! This wasmon knowledge!


    However, the head in the energy core was adamant on consuming the pir. If Alex Rockefeller didn’t


    let it,


    it’d hop around like a naughty child giving Alex a headache. But he looked carefully at the very dated


    wooden pir in front of him. It was ckwith tinges of yellow, and


    it had a lot of cracked grains.


    In fact, there were even some oil stains on it. It really was an ordinary pir. Alex concluded that he


    wouldn’t look at the pir anymore. Instead, he turned around and intended to leave. But the bead in


    his energy core suddenly emanated an extremely strong mental power. It felt as if a needle


    pricked his mind. “Ouch!” Alex cried in pain. Not only did it startle X Stoermer, who was beside him,


    but it also shocked the female sales assistant who


    approached the two of them with tea.


    Her hands trembled, and the tray in her hands flipped over, causing the


    teacups to fall to the ground. Many customers in House of Treasures nced over unhappily. “Mr.


    Rockefeller, what happened to you?” X quickly asked.


    The pricking sensation went away in an instant. But Alex had never felt this much pain in his life. It was


    as if his soul was being torn apart. He quickly ced


    one hand on the pir.


    “It’s nothing… I suddenly felt a strong connection to this pir’s history. I recalled the days of blood and


    fire


    when enemies invaded this ce, and I feel very sentimental,” Alex said. Immediately, X and the


    sales assistant looked at him as if they were looking at a monkey who could speak. The sales


    assistant, in particr, must have thought of Alex as a psychotic and mentally challenged person. “Mr.


    Rockefeller, why don’t we head upstairs and look around. The good stuff is all upstairs,” X said


    softly.


    “I wonder, is this wooden pir for sale?” Alex scratched his head and asked the assistant. As soon as


    Alex asked the question, the female sales assistant seemed annoyed. “Sir, if you keep making jokes


    like that, I’ll have to get security to throw you out. This is a load bearing pir in House of Treasures. If


    you


    want to buy it, doesn’t that mean you want to tear the entire ce down?” X had a very odd


    expression on her face too. Ever since Alex walked into this building, he’d been acting awfully strange.


    But Alex didn’t have a choice. Otherwise, that darned bead might repeat what it did earlier. It was too


    much


    for Alex to handle. “I’ll buy it for whatever it costs,” Alex said determinedly.


    The female sales assistant’s facial expression turned dark. She red angrily at Alex for a second.


    “Security,e here, quick. Someone’s causing a scene here,” she shouted.


    At the same time, the bead’s consciousness was getting stronger, and it was bumping around in Alex’s


    energy


    core. Alex felt as if it might break through his upper energy core and fly out. This gave Alex a fright. If it


    really came out, not only would it destroy his energy core, but his head might get hurt too. Alex made


    up his mind in an instant. “Hey! You b*tch. What the hell is going on? You’re running a business, and


    I’m here to buy stuff. You


    actually called the security to throw me out. How dare you?” Alex yelled. As he spoke, he punched the


    pir angrily. Boom!


    Crack!


    Alex intentionally broke the load-bearing pir. The wooden pir with a diameter of half a meter


    fractured


    from the center. Right after that, the ceiling supported by this wooden pir began to crack and


    countless stones began to rain


    down. A huge chunk of the ceiling couldn’t bear its weight any longer, and it came crashing down


    forcefully. When the female sales assistant saw this happening, she screamed in terror as her knees


    went weak. Her basic


    human instincts to run away didn’t even kick in.


    Meanwhile, the three security guards summoned by the sales assistant were also dumbfounded when


    they


    witnessed this scene as they had rushed over.


    “Crap!”


    “What’s going on?” Alex grabbed the female sales assistant and X before dashing out of the way at


    lightning speed to avoid the


    falling ceiling.

    At the same time, the bead in his energy core was vibrating even more intensely. Alex could


    see an irregrly shaped stone popping out from the cracked spot on the load bearing pir. The


    essence that emanated from it was too dense to describe with words.
