Chapter 266: Chapter 202: Penta Kill in One Second

"Ah?"

Everyone was frightened by Ji Xinghuo’s grand gesture.

One hundred million Ya Yuan plus a Transcendent Species, and that was per person, the total value amounting to seven or eight hundred million, even possibly reaching a billion!

Their breathing grew heavy.

No one was a fool; the only thing that could make Ji Xinghuo willing to pay such a huge price had to be a Star-falling Species of a higher level than a Transcendent Species!

With mouths agape and tongues parched, they stared at Ji Xinghuo, yet couldn’t help but look over at the lizard’s body.

The excitement and elation from their harvest had disappeared; the atmosphere in the canyon had become somewhat tense, yet Ji Xinghuo still wore a smile, very much at ease.

Chi Zhonglin’s voice grew somewhat hoarse, "Actually, you didn’t have to tell us; you could wait for us to leave, then come back and retrieve the body, and no one would ever find out the truth."

As these words were spoken, everyone else came to their senses and were suddenly shocked.

"I know."

Ji Xinghuo nodded slightly, "But I can’t get past this barrier within myself. I can’t do something like deceiving my teammates, even if the profit is astonishing."

There was actually an even better method; after everyone left, he could let Qing Hong secretly return to the canyon and swallow the lizard’s body into its belly.

Or, he could find an excuse to return by himself and stash the body in the Dimension Stomach.

But as he said, he couldn’t get past this inner barrier of his.

Principles are principles.

Ji Xinghuo’s greatest ideal in life was to bravely scale the peaks on the path of life evolution, but not by any means necessary; he wanted to maintain his own heart.

He wished to preserve some of the most fundamental things, which were the upstanding traits in his heart.

To complain with integrity, to have clarity of thought!

Ji Xinghuo knew that under the temptation of huge profits, it was possible that teammates might not withstand the test, but he wasn’t worried about losing the Star-falling Species. If anyone really revealed their greed and turned against him over it, he still had many trump cards unplayed, enough to make the other party bitterly regret it.

Having said that, Ji Xinghuo waited for everyone’s response.

"I agree."

Lu Yunhai was the first to speak up, "Xinghuo, I won’t take the one hundred million and the Transcendent Species, just take good care of me in the future, hehe."

"I agree too." Chi Zhonglin said with a smile, "But I have one condition, in the future when we form a team, you have to lend me the Sky Fury Green Blood Spear."

Jing Ji and Yuan Chongzhen looked at each other.

They nodded simultaneously.

"We’ve shared life and death together, and I’ve always trusted your character," Jing Ji said, coming over to pat Ji Xinghuo on the shoulder.

Yuan Chongzhen followed up, "But I want that one hundred million and the Transcendent Species."

"No problem."

Ji Xinghuo laughed, looking towards Man Ying.

Man Ying was the teammate with the least connections to everyone present, and they didn’t know much about him.

His face was a complex array of emotions, difficult to settle, and as the others waited for his decision, the pressure mounted. After a long time, he finally sighed, "Since it’s a Species that cannot be fused, it means it’s not meant for me; getting one hundred million and a Transcendent Species, I should be content."

After he finished speaking, Man Ying felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and his body and mind felt lighter.

"Thank you."

Ji Xinghuo nodded to him solemnly.

Without hesitation, he let Qing Hong out, instantly activating "Giant Transformation" to turn into a twenty-meter-long python. Its golden, cyan, and silver scales shimmered under the sunlight, twice as long as the lizard, emitting a fearsome aura.

Man Ying’s face changed slightly, seeing Qing Hong up close for the first time.

If he had disagreed earlier...

Qing Hong’s serpent body wrapped around the lizard’s corpse, its mouth opening wider and wider, nearly splitting its own head in half as it swallowed the lizard whole. It took several minutes to ingest the entire beast fully, the scales stretching out as it slowly moved into its stomach, making its way down to the snake’s abdomen with difficulty.

The lizard’s body had nearly doubled Qing Hong’s size, making movement difficult.

Immediately, it shrank down to just a few centimeters in length, but was still pudgy, resembling an overstuffed chubby caterpillar, which was quite amusing to see.

Everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

Ji Xinghuo put Qing Hong back into his pocket and then said, "I’ll borrow the money from Man Ying and then transfer it to you all."

"Damn!"

"Holy shit!"

Jing Ji and the others could not help but laugh and swear, "I thought you’d made a fortune, but it turns out you’re broke too, needing to borrow from your girlfriend."

"Damn it..." Chi Zhonglin was full of envy, "I wish I had a billionairess girlfriend too; being a kept man sounds so sweet!"

Ji Xinghuo shook his head with a chuckle, "You’re about to be a billionaire yourself."

"Right!"

Everyone turned their gaze to the fifteen Alien Species on the ground.

"How should we handle them?" Everyone looked at Ji Xinghuo, who said, "Let’s follow the Star Realm hunting principles for spoils of war: If anyone in the team has a need, the highest bidder gets it; if no one in the team is interested, then we’ll sell it to outsiders, divide the money, and split it evenly among us."

This was very fair, and nobody objected.

Just as Ji Xinghuo was about to continue, his expression suddenly changed, "Someone’s coming."

He quickly rolled up the waterproof cloth, gathered all the Alien Species, Lu Yunhai threw a backpack to him, into which he stuffed all the Alien Species and carried it on his back.

The others turned around on alert, looking up at the top of the canyon.

A small Sky Fighter skimmed quickly across the sky, slowed down, and hovered in mid-air above the canyon; the rear hatch opened, and several people jumped out, landing on the ground, a mere two or three hundred meters away, and began to spread out towards where Ji Xinghuo and his group were.

From their Weapon Equipment, it was clear this was a Hunting Team.

Five people were approaching.

The four men and one woman had high noses and deep-set eyes, obviously not citizens of the Asia-Pacific Community. The leader was a tall, agile-looking man wearing light alloy Armor, with a long spear and a Round Shield on his back, sunglasses on his face, and a thick beard running down his cheeks.
