Chapter 72 Flaming Spike
The next day after settling the documents for the house, Zachary invited Vanessa, Maxwell, and Lauren over for housewarming. Everyone came over and had a good time.
After the celebration, Zachary gave Lauren and Vanessa a set of keys to the villa, telling them to treat this place like their own home. They were free to come over whenever they wished.
Seeing this, Maxwell smiled. He was feeling down because Zachary no longer lived with them. But when Zachary gave Vanessa a set of keys, Maxwell kept winking at his granddaughter, as if he was hinting at something.
Once they were done with the party, everyone left. Lauren was once again engaged in the company's business. As everything in the company fell into place, Zachary didn't need to go to the factory often. He only needed to inspect the quality of their products occasionally. Other than that, there wasn't much for him to worry about.
In his spare time, Zachary continued to practice the Shannon Herbal Skill. After a month, his aura had increased to twice it was before. He was finally able to master the Flaming Spike.
The Flaming Spike was completely different from the Drumley Spike and Firstie Spike he had mastered before. It required the person to completely eliminate any weak spots in the body, so the practitioner had to have sufficient Qi and aura in them.
After practicing several times to make sure that he was completely familiar with the Flaming Spike, Zachary called Sienna and told her about his progress.
After hearing what he said, Sienna picked Zachary up in a rush. Compared to the last encounter they had at the Tang family villa, it was obvious that they treated Zachary better this time.
Harper and Brittney welcomed him at the gate. Even the little girl, Abby, jumped into Zachary's arms, calling him "Big Brother" sweetly. Then, she pouted her lips and kissed Zachary on the cheek.
Seeing this, her real sister, Sienna's eyes turned green with envy.
They didn't talk for long. Zachary did a basic checkup on Abby. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, he then began performing the Flaming Spike on her.
Unlike the Firstie Spike and Drumley Spike, the needles didn't move or spin unusually when Zachary performed the Flaming Spike.
The only difference was that he needed to touch the needles continuously. By doing this, he was channeling his inner Qi through the needles into Abby's body.
The aura of the flora channeled using the Shannon Herbal Skill passed through the needles slowly, converting into positive energy. This energy was then channeled directly into the blood tumor in Abby's brain.
Layers of the aura wrapped around the blood tumor, burning it vigorously. The blood tumor was burned away bit by bit and gradually became smaller.
Abby's cheeks turned red due to the heat from the burning, and layers of steam seem to emit from her body. Her whole body looked like it was being steamed alive.
If it weren't for the fact that they trusted Zachary whole-heartedly, Harper and Brittney would've rushed over to stop him.
As he channeled the aura, Zachary's face gradually turned pale as sweat dripped from his head continuously. It was obvious that this treatment was consuming a lot of his energy.
Finally, half an hour later, the treatment was completed. Zachary's forehead was full of sweat, making Sienna's heart tremble. She didn't know what to do so she just handed him a towel for him to wipe off the sweat.
Harper and Brittney took a look at their daughter. Seeing that she was fine, they quickly thanked Zachary for his help. Although they couldn't see the blood tumor in her brain, from the look on their daughter's face, they knew that their daughter was feeling better.
Zachary wiped the sweat off his face while saying, "Don't worry. The treatment went well this time. A part of the blood tumor has been removed. A few more sessions and it'll be completely gone." "That's great. Thank you so much, Dr. Ching."
After Harper and Brittney thanked him countless times and Abby bidding him farewell sweetly, Sienna sent Zachary off.
Having seen each other frequently, Zachary and Sienna gradually became more familiar with each other. Both of them got along easily and were very comfortable with each other's company. From their conversation, Zachary was surprised to know that Sienna was a member of the Night Wolf Special Forces. She was a crucial part of the elite team and ran everything behind the scenes. Learning about this, Zachary was thrilled. He had wanted to master some fighting skills for a long time and the perfect trainer was right in front of him.
Some time ago, he did learn some martial arts and also learnt some history on it. However, he always regarded those Taekwondo Studios as something just for show. Families who pass down their true martial arts knowledge through generations wouldn't simply teach it to outsiders.
On the other hand, the fighting skills of the army were simple yet powerful, which was suitable for Zachary to learn.
Thinking of this, his heart leaped with excitement, so he told Sienna about his idea.
When Sienna heard that he wanted her to train him, she was slightly taken aback. At first, she looked slightly shocked and even wanted to reject him instinctively. In the end, she nodded and agreed.
Zachary was thrilled. He wanted their training to begin immediately.
However, Sienna refused his unreasonable request as she looked at his pale face. Instead, she told him they would begin in a few days. When Zachary's body was fully recovered, she would bring him somewhere to train.
After sending him back to the villa, Sienna left without saying another word. Seeing this, Zachary sighed. This woman really wasn't feminine at all.
Other than that, he was thinking about whether he needed his own car. After all, it wasn't appropriate for him to keep asking Sienna, Lauren, and Vanessa to chauffeur him around.

After two entire days of rest, Zachary's body finally returned to its normal state. Since he had much time on his hands, he made his way into the city to have a look at some cars.
Zachary wasn't much of a car guy. He only recognized some of the famous brands and didn't know much about the specifics. Thankfully, the salesman was very professional. When Zachary stated a few of his requirements, the salesman promptly made a few recommendations.
In the end, Zachary chose a two hundred thousand yuan snow-white Chevrolet. He took a test drive and he liked the feel of it, so he made the purchase immediately.
After settling all the paperwork, he drove the car back home on the very same day. As it was a new car, plus Zachary didn't have the best driving skills, he drove slowly and cautiously the entire way back.
However, just as he was about to turn right at an intersection, a figure suddenly rushed out from the corner, slammed into his car with a bang, and then fell to the ground.
Before Zachary understood what was going on, five to six young men came out of nowhere and started surrounding his car, yelling loudly.
"Are you alright?"
"You a*shole, get out of your car!"
"You motherf*cker, get down here! You bumped into my brother!"
...
"Godd*mn it!" Zachary thought as he watched the chaos unfold around him, his face darkening.
