The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 460

“It’s still there… It could be some type of sauce. It’s not coming off. You’ll need a wet
towel. Here, let me help you,” Maya Howards said.
She looked around in her purse but found no wet towels. “I’ll get it washed in the toilet,”
said Alex Rockefeller.
“The public toilet is some ways from here. We’ll have to head back to the starting point. I
have an idea,” Maya said.
“What is it?” Alex asked.
The next second, Maya circled her arms around his neck and pressed her red lips
against his.
Alex was at a loss for words. He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his mind
had gone completely blank. He unconsciously placed his hands on her waist.
Meanwhile, Maya, feeling as if she was being encouraged, became even more
emotionally involved. Around them were many pedestrians, all staring at this handsome
couple.
Although people were used to seeing couples holding and kissing each other in public,
such occurrences usually took place very briefly. A kiss never lasted longer than a
second.
However, what was happening before them was a rare sight.
Alex and Maya kissed for nearly twenty seconds. When she let go of Alex, her face was

blushing. She immediately grabbed Alex by his hand and started running.
After running for a bit, Alex looked at Maya.
“Sister, I’m a married man. What you just
did… It’s not right, don’t you think?” he asked.
Maya snorted. “Why didn’t you say that when you and Waltz were messing around in
bed?” she questioned.
“This… Eh…” Alex stammered.
Just as Alex was about to speak, an unusual scent suddenly wafted into his nose. He
even sensed a mild essence emanating from somewhere. After looking around
carefully, he realized it came from a place that sold bonsai plants.
The mild scent had originated from a tiny plant the size of a human palm.
“Frosty octagon flowers!” Alex nearly cried out loud.
In the Ultimate Book of Medicine, there were introductions of various spiritual herbs.
The frosty octagon flower was an extremely rare type of spiritual herb. Its petals could
be synthesized into Cryo Pills that were extremely beneficial for people who cultivated
martial art techniques with the Cryo attribute. In fact, it was also among the herbs used
to cure Holly Yates’
illness.
Alex quickly walked over and picked up the pot to observe the flower. Unfortunately, this
frosty octagon plant wouldn’t be
blooming any flowers for a long while. Only three leaves had appeared now, and the
flower would only bloom once all eight leaves were fully grown. Since each leaf would
require an entire year to grow fully, he would have to wait five years for the remaining
five leaves.
It would take too long. He couldn’t afford to wait!
“Sigh! ” Alex gingerly shook his head. “How much does this plant cost?” he casually
asked the owner of the store.
Although five years was a very lengthy period, there was no reason not to acquire such
rare treasure now that he had seen it.
The owner was a short, elderly man who seemed to be in his fifties or sixties. He looked
up at Alex. “Young man, do you know what kind of plant this is?” he asked.
Alex’s heart leaped. “I actually don’t know what it is, but it smells really good. Can you
tell me what kind?” Alex asked.
The old man smiled and shook his head.
