Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 481 - Blood Clan Queen (10)
Chapter 481: Chapter 481 Blood Clan Queen (10)
“Eight more days, if you don’t eat, you can only starve to death,” Chuzheng reminded her coolly.
“There must be something else to eat on the island,” Su Li said, wrapping her arms around her stomach, filled with hope.
“There isn’t,” Chuzheng shattered her fantasy, “and there’s the Blood Clan, will you eat them?”
Su Li was speechless. As a member of the Blood Clan, how appropriate is it for you to say that?
The Blood Clan member shivered.
Chuzheng’s eyes coldly swept over the canopy, “The Blood Clan eats humans, why can’t humans eat the Blood Clan? It is only right to return the favor, isn’t it?”
Is that how the idiom ‘return the favor’ is supposed to be used?
“My lord, we of the Blood Clan do not eat people,” the Blood Clan member poked his head out from the tree, feeling it necessary to clear his name, “We only drink blood.”
“Oh, same thing,” Chuzheng dismissed.
“…My lord, how is it the same?”
Chuzheng argued with conviction, “Either way, you’ll die.”
“…” The Blood Clan member was at a loss for words. Although he felt the lord’s argument was completely unreasonable, he had no rebuttal.
Su Li glanced at the Blood Clan member, “How could the Blood Clan eat…”
“How do you know you can’t eat it if you’ve never tried? Humans can be eaten, so why not the Blood Clan? No racial discrimination allowed, all creatures are equal.”
Su Li’s voice was feeble, “Really… Can we?”
The Blood Clan member was silent.
Can you not consider how I feel?!
Fearing that Chuzheng and Su Li might seriously consider cooking him, the Blood Clan member quickly retreated into the canopy, not daring to make another sound.
Su Li glanced over and let out a small snort of contempt.
After releasing her contempt… oh how hungry she was!
–
Chuzheng propped her head up, bored as she watched the distance.
The pitch-black night kept her alert, without a hint of sleepiness.
She changed positions to make herself more comfortable.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a white figure standing in the nearby jungle.
“…”
Wow! What was that!
Chuzheng turned her head to look.
The jungle was pitch dark; there was no white figure anywhere.
A ghost, could it be?
Chuzheng, hugging her arms, called the Blood Clan member down from the tree, “Go take a look around.”
“What is my lord looking at?” The Blood Clan member was all ears.
How would I know what to look for, if I did, would I need you? It could be a ghost!! Scaring me to death!
Chuzheng calmly ordered, “Just have a look around.”
The Blood Clan member was silent.
Not even a few minutes had passed after the Blood Clan member left when Chuzheng saw a fleeting white figure again.
Chuzheng sat impassively, not moving an inch.
Don’t think for a moment you can lure me away!
If I say I won’t move, I won’t move!
A few moments later, the Blood Clan member returned, “My lord, there’s nothing unusual nearby.”
Chuzheng casually scanned the surroundings without showing any signs of concern and ‘hmm’ed reassuringly.
The white figure didn’t appear again.
The next day at dawn, Su Li was unbearably hungry and, gritting her teeth, ate those few fruits.
Ten days’ time; today was only the third day, and she didn’t want to starve to death here.
The Bastard hadn’t issued a task, so Chuzheng could only wander around the island aimlessly.
Occasionally, she would hear a horrible scream.
According to the Blood Clan, there are quite a few of them on the island, all low-level Blood Clan members.
If Avigust is a place for keeping humans.
Then Death Island is where low-level Blood Clan members are kept.
So finding bones here and there— that’s all too normal.
“Why are you here?”
“Me?” The Blood Clan member pointed at himself, “Shouldn’t I be here?”
“Most low-level Blood Clan members are ugly, you don’t fit in here.” This Blood Clan member had an air of elegance about him, more like someone raised in the Blood Clan with good manners.
“Even if I don’t fit in, I prefer it here,” the Blood Clan member scratched his red hair and smiled, “My lord, the struggles within the Blood Clan are also very brutal.”
Thinking of the original host’s experiences, Chuzheng fell silent for a moment before changing the subject, “What else is on Death Island?”
“Nothing much,” the Blood Clan member shook his head, “Blood Clan members, discarded food.”
Those who pride themselves on their noble bloodlines wouldn’t come here.
Most of the Blood Clan on Death Island were slumbering; as long as no major disturbance was made to awaken the sleeping Blood Clan, the chance of surviving on the island was quite high… the precondition being that there was food.
Of course, some Blood Clan members did not like to sleep, such as him…
“Skeletons.” Su Li added from the side.
These past few days, she had almost had her fill of skeletons for a lifetime.
After throwing up and throwing up… she probably didn’t want to vomit anymore.
All she wanted now was something to eat; she was terribly hungry.
Chuzheng looked towards the depths of the jungle, “There might even be ghosts.”
Su Li: “…”
Blood Clan: “…”
–
The other side of Death Island.
The boy in white walked barefoot through the jungle, his sleeves soaked with blood, which ran down his wrist, sliding over the back of his hand to his fingertips.
Following him was a Blood Clan member.
This Blood Clan member had only a human shape, with a pair of wings on its back, and an ugly face. At the moment, it was greedily eyeing the boy ahead.
Food…
So fragrant…
Eat it, eat it!!
Blood dripped from the boy’s fingertips, landing on the grass on either side.
The Blood Clan member behind lapped up every drop, ever more greed in its eyes.
The boy climbed a steep slope and then slid down.
Below was a chilling sight of bones and skulls scattered everywhere; countless people must have died here.
The Blood Clan member stood above, watching the boy stepping on the bones, its expression strangely fixed on a tree growing amongst the bones.
The tree was bare, with only a few leaves remaining.
The boy frowned slightly, turned to lean against the tree, and looked up at the Blood Clan member.
A cruel smile appeared on the ugly face of the Blood Clan member, and filthy liquid flowed from its mouth, utterly nauseating.
“Ah…”
A scream rang out not far away.
The Blood Clan member turned its head to look in that direction, its sharp claws scoring a mark in the ground.
Lately, there had been quite a few fresh meals on the island… but they were instructed not to touch them haphazardly.
Of course, some of the slumbering Blood Clan members had not received this command, and upon awakening and seeing food delivered to their mouths, how could they resist eating.
The Blood Clan member did not pay attention to the scream; all its focus was on the boy below.
After waiting for a while, the Blood Clan member eventually grew impatient and leapt down.

A knife fell from the boy’s sleeve, which he tightly clutched in his hand.
The Blood Clan member immediately took a few steps back.
That knife was strange; the Blood Clan member had suffered from it before.
As the standoff continued, a voice came from above.
A tuft of red hair appeared first, followed by a doll-like face.
The Blood Clan member tensed up at the sight, clear wariness in its eyes.
“This isn’t your territory, what are you doing here?!”
The Blood Clan member’s voice was rough and hoarse, grating to the ear. Despite its wariness, it didn’t back away.
“What are you doing?” the Red-haired Blood Clan Member asked, raising an eyebrow.
“…” The Blood Clan member stayed silent.
The dimples on the Red-haired Blood Clan Member’s doll-like face became pronounced: “I remember the order from above, we’re not allowed to touch these people on our own, you’re breaking the rules.”
The Blood Clan member suddenly panicked: “It wasn’t just me…”
The Red-haired Blood Clan Member blinked, “But you were seen by me, what should we do now?”
“…” The Blood Clan member suddenly thought of something and said, “He is not one of those people!”
So he was fair game!
“Oh?” The dimples on the Red-haired Blood Clan Member’s face deepened.
“Mind your own business and roll back to your territory!” the Blood Clan member growled.
“Found them?”
The expression on the Red-haired Blood Clan Member’s face became serious, and he pushed aside the underbrush: “My lord, there is someone here.”
From the underbrush, a girl walked out leisurely.
Dressed in a simple black casual outfit, without any superfluous adornments, her features were delicate, yet her face was devoid of any expression, making her seem somewhat cold and unapproachable.
The respectful attitude of the Red-haired Blood Clan Member made the Blood Clan member below feel oddly alert and wary.
There were territorial divisions even on Death Island.
This Red-haired Blood Clan Member could be considered a notable figure on Death Island.
Owning a territory of his own, and now showing such respect to a girl… could it be that she was from the Blood Clan on the other side?
