After casting the secret technique, Li Hai Feng began the next step, searching for fresh blood to fill the blood pool and lay Jiang Zhan inside. As the progenitor of the vampire zombies, Jiang Zhan naturally required a large quantity of blood to revive. Moreover, this blood was not limited to human blood; it also included the blood of other animals.
Especially the blood of the Four Spirits. While it was impossible to find genuine Four Spirits' blood now, it could be substituted with the blood of other animals. The blood of the White Tiger could be replaced with that of a tiger, the blood of the Vermilion Bird could be substituted with peacock blood, the blood of the Black Tortoise could be replaced with turtle blood, and the blood of the Azure Dragon could be substituted with python blood.
To gather a large amount of blood, substantial financial resources and manpower were required. Even finding substitutes for the Four Spirits' blood was challenging, which is why Li Hai Feng sought cooperation with Feng Laowu. Last night, the first batch of fresh blood arrived, and The Body of the General absorbed it, unleashing a tremendous Blood Qi that could be seen from a thousand miles away; even Jiang Chen in Shanghai could perceive it.
However, to truly awaken Jiang Zhan, at least three more batches of blood were needed. Li Hai Feng estimated that if everything went smoothly, it would take another month for Jiang Zhan to fully awaken. The sudden encounter with Jiang Chen was somewhat premature, but it didn't matter; Li Hai Feng had a hundred Flying Copper Armored Corpses at his disposal, which gave him confidence.
Yet today he had only brought one, making him feel somewhat anxious. He hadn't anticipated that the Yang Family would hire someone to kill Feng Dong. In reality, he was mistaken; it was actually Jiang Chen who had discovered the anomaly and come on his own.
"Mr. Jiang, do you know that I already possess The Body of the General? No one in Southwest Province can contend with me," Li Hai Feng said with a faint smile.
"Then let me be frank; I came to Southwest Province specifically to obtain The Body of the General," Jiang Chen replied with a similar smile.
"You traveled all this way just for The Body of the General? Then Mr. Jiang, I’m afraid you will be disappointed; I cannot give it to you!" Li Hai Feng exclaimed in shock. He had initially thought Jiang Chen was a martial arts expert hired by the Yang Family, but hearing Jiang Chen's words made it clear he had come on his own and specifically for The Body of the General. This complicated matters.
"If you won't give it to me, then I'll have to take it myself," Jiang Chen stated.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to take it. I'll give you one chance: let's keep our distance from each other. If you let this go, I'll pretend nothing happened. How about that?" Li Hai Feng suggested; he didn't want to seek revenge for Feng Laowu anymore. After all, before The Body of the General was awakened, he wanted to avoid any unexpected incidents. Jiang Chen's calm demeanor and focus on The Body of the General made him uneasy. After all, Jiang Chen was far away in Southeast Province; such distance and yet he could sense anomalies here—this level of awareness was not something ordinary people possessed.
Hearing Li Hai Feng's words, Feng Laowu was dumbfounded. He had expected Li Hai Feng's temper would lead him to immediately teach Jiang Chen a harsh lesson. However, Li Hai Feng's attitude toward Jiang Chen surprised him; he was negotiating rather than confronting.
"Anything I want is within my reach. Even if I wanted your life, you'd have no choice but to give it to me—let alone just The Body of the General," Jiang Chen said coolly, his tone sharp and domineering.
"Don't be unappreciative! I'm merely unwilling to break our peace; it's not that I'm afraid of you. If we were to fight, we would both suffer losses. Even if you're powerful, can you really match my Corpse Refining Clan's hundred Flying Copper Armored Corpses?" Li Hai Feng replied coldly.
