Chapter 39: Double Purchase

Yang Yi Long was covered in blood, looking at He Jun's corpse, which had been cut into two halves in front of him. The anger on his face slowly hid away, and at the same time, the sharp sword on his right arm gradually dissipated, finally disappearing completely in the eyes of the Spirit Medium Realm cultivators.

However, facing all this that happened suddenly, everyone felt incredible.

Yang Yi Long really killed He Jun?

One had to know that this was the Stability Zone. Killing was against the law, especially killing a cultivator. That would attract people from the Investigation Bureau to investigate. If it was verified, one would face big trouble.

But soon, others reacted.

With He Jun's behavior just now, Yang Yi Long killed him well.

This kind of person who sold out his teammates to survive, reversed right and wrong, and raked back, if he didn't die, there would really be no justice.

"Good, killed well! This beast should have died long ago." After a brief silence, someone immediately clapped and shouted.

"Mr. Yang, He Jun deserved to die. Don't worry, I will never reveal a word about today's matter. Let's just be consistent to the outside world and say He Jun died in the Danger Zone and his corpse couldn't be found. We can't bring trouble to you, Mr. Yang."

"That's right. If everyone doesn't talk about today's matter, who would know?"

Then others also became indignant one after another.

But facing the kind help of these cultivators, Yang Yi Long had a calm expression. He just took the towel handed over by Supervisor Xu Ming, wiped the blood on his face, and said, "I will tell the Investigation Bureau about this matter, and it has nothing to do with anyone. I, Yang Yi Long, am not so avoidant as to hide because of the death of such a villain."

"Pack up the corpse. I will personally take it to the Investigation Bureau tomorrow morning."

He took this matter directly, without implicating others, and was very responsible.

"Li Yi, this matter is my fault. It was my lack of judgment that led to such a big disaster. I must apologize to you." Yang Yi Long then dropped the blood-stained towel, looked at Li Yi seriously, and apologized to him.

Li Yi immediately said, "Mr. Yang, you are too polite. This matter has nothing to do with you at all. And just now, if you hadn't taken action, I might have been harmed to death by this He Jun. I should thank you instead."

"It's good that you can understand. But the matter has already happened, and I, Yang Yi Long, will never shirk the responsibility I should bear. For the cultivators who participated in the action and returned alive, I, Yang Yi Long, am willing to compensate each of them one million. If they were injured, I, Yang Yi Long, will not only be responsible for free treatment but also pay an additional one million in nutrition fees," Yang Yi Long said.

As soon as these words were spoken, the resentment of all the cultivators in the medical room toward Yang Yi Long instantly disappeared completely. They sighed that Mr. Yang handled things fairly and was generous. Some cultivators even directly expressed that if Mr. Yang had any tasks next time, just give an order, and they would definitely come.

Yang Yi Long then continued, "Li Yi, this *biao* was hunted by you, and I am also willing to buy it at a high price. Little Xu, what is the current purchase price offered by major merchants for this fierce beast?"

Supervisor Xu Ming on the side took out a tablet computer, checked the information, and said, "Currently, the highest purchase price is from Tianhe Medical Company, which is 9.8 million. Because the *biao* is a variant of the tiger and does not belong to a transcendent creature, nor does it belong to an unknown species, the price is not optimistic."

Yang Yi Long nodded. "Li Yi, out of my personal compensation to you, I am willing to buy this *biao* for 20 million. If you are willing to sell, I will have Xu Ming sign a purchase contract with you later."

Buying at double the price?

Other cultivators were also surprised. This doubling was equivalent to giving away more than ten million for nothing.

This was too generous.

Looking at Li Yi again, envious expressions couldn't help but appear in their eyes.

"Good, I have no opinion on this price. Thank you, Mr. Yang, for your care," Li Yi agreed immediately and expressed gratitude to Yang Yi Long.

After all, this was a real benefit. It would be a lie to say he wasn't grateful. He was short of money everywhere now, and such a large sum of money could solve many things.

Yang Yi Long said, "No need to thank me. This is what you deserve. In addition, not just this *biao*, if others hunt any fierce beasts or transcendent creatures in the future, they can also sell them to me. I, Yang Yi Long, guarantee with my reputation that the price of my private purchase is definitely higher than those large companies on the market."

"Today's matter ends here. Everyone, have a good rest here. Don't be in a hurry to go back. If you have any other needs, you can find Little Xu. I still have some private matters to deal with, so I won't stay here."

After speaking, he greeted everyone and turned to leave.

After Yang Yi Long left, various discussions broke out in the medical room.

"I have to say, Mr. Yang is really decent. The accident in the Danger Zone this time can't really be blamed on Mr. Yang. After all, everyone who participated in the mission this time was voluntary, and no one forced us. It was our bad luck to encounter such a bad thing."

"That's right. Mr. Yang has already done his best, and he handles things fairly. That beast He Jun harmed two cultivators and even wanted to slander that Li Yi. He deserved to die."

"It's really good to know someone like Mr. Yang. If he has any work in the future, I will definitely be the first to participate."

Previously, there were quite a few complaints, but now these injured cultivators started calling him Mr. Yang one by one, very intimately.

While listening, Li Yi also secretly admired Yang Yi Long's methods.

He originally just wanted Xu Ming to invite Yang Yi Long to bear witness, but he didn't expect that after doing this, Yang Yi Long not only calmed the impact of this incident but also stabilized people's hearts, established prestige, and even deterred some people with ulterior motives by killing He Jun.

Finally, buying that fierce beast *biao* at a high price also had profound meaning, pulling in and investing in Li Yi while also paving the way for future business.

One had to know that even if Yang Yi Long didn't do this, he would still have to pay the compensation and medical expenses. It just wouldn't be given like this. A group of cultivators would probably have joined forces to make a scene at his door.

"However, He Jun's matter gave me a reminder. Even in the Stability Zone, with the law managing things, cultivators will kill when forced. If I am not vigilant, it would have been really dangerous just now."

Li Yi secretly kept this scene in mind.

He must be highly alert to some hostile cultivators and must never use the thinking mode of ordinary people to deal with these things.

If ordinary people encountered this matter, they would probably say: I did it like this, what can you do to me? You have the ability to kill me, do you dare?

Ordinary people, of course, wouldn't dare to take action.

But cultivators don't care; this kind of person really dares to kill.

Yang Yi Long didn't hesitate at all when he killed He Jun just now.

With this thought, Li Yi left the medical room with some physical and mental fatigue, then took the elevator back to the dormitory on the third floor.

Back in the room, he didn't do anything, just had a stable sleep.

He slept until the afternoon of the next day.

And what happened last night also spread quickly. Many people knew about this matter. While cursing He Jun, they also envied Li Yi for successfully hunting a *biao* in the Danger Zone and earning 20 million, suddenly becoming rich, which was talked about with great relish.

Many people even expressed that they wanted to join forces to go to the Danger Zone to pick up leaks.

In the room, Li Yi, who had woken up, had all his fatigue gone, and he felt full of strength all over.

The wounds on his back had scabbed over and were faintly itchy, looking like they were healing.

After a simple wash, Li Yi packed his things, preparing to go home today.

His parents at home still needed care, and he couldn't stay any longer.

Looking at the mud horse brought back from the Danger Zone and that creepy human skin mask, Li Yi couldn't help but think of his master whom he had only met once. Having no relatives around him, it was the first time he felt the care and protection from a relative like Zhao Ge.

Although they had only spent an hour together, Li Yi remembered it vividly.

Without continuing to let his imagination run wild, after packing his things, Li Yi washed up and prepared to go to the canteen for a meal before leaving.

Life had to go on.

"Li Yi, are you awake? It's me, Xu Ming." At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Coming." Li Yi responded and opened the door.

"How is it? Did you sleep well yesterday?" Xu Ming said with a smile. The two had interacted many times and could be considered familiar with each other.

Li Yi laughed. "Slept very well. Now that I think about it, the Stability Zone is comfortable. That Danger Zone is really not a place for people to stay."

"Only with tempering can one grow. Many powerful cultivators take the initiative to go to the Danger Zone for tempering. I believe you will do the same in the future," Xu Ming said. "Alright, let's not talk about this. Take a look at this purchase contract. If there's no problem, sign it. This is 20 million in cash. In addition, there is 2 million in compensation. Besides that, the salary for this operation, 800,000, is also inside. You can count it."

"No need, I trust you," Li Yi said, took the contract, looked at it, and signed it after confirming there was no problem.

Xu Ming took the contract and signaled his assistant to put the money into the room. He then glanced and asked, "Why? Packing things now, planning to go back? Not staying for a few more days? It includes food and housing here, and the conditions are quite good. You can cultivate for a period of time before going back. And your injuries haven't fully healed, right?"

"I want to, but there are things at home, and my parents still need care, so I can't," Li Yi said with great regret.

"So that's how it is. If you have time after handling things at home, you can come over. I'll arrange food and housing for you. Don't worry, I still have this bit of authority," Xu Ming said with a smile, lowering his voice.

Li Yi was instantly moved. "This isn't very good."

"It's fine. Do you think Mr. Yang would care about such a small matter? If you want to come, just come. If you have any problems, find me," Xu Ming guaranteed.

"Supervisor, since you said so, then I won't be polite. When I have time after handling things, I will definitely come here to sponge off food and housing," Li Yi said.

Xu Ming looked left and right at this time, then walked into the room and whispered, "Li Yi, let me reveal one more thing to you. Do you know why Yang Yi Long wanted to buy the *biao* you hunted at a high price?"

"This, I'm not very clear about this," Li Yi tried to guess. "Is he trying to invest in me?"

"That's part of it, but not entirely. This is information I'm giving you privately. If this leaves this door, I won't admit it," Xu Ming said. "Yang Yi Long saw the scars left on that *biao* of yours. Ordinary boxing can't leave that kind of punch print."

"Yang Yi Long speculates that you had an opportunity in the Danger Zone and learned a technique, a fist technique."

Li Yi's expression shifted slightly. He had overlooked this point.

Thinking about it now, he had indeed left special punch prints on that *biao* after beating it to death.

People who practice cultivation can definitely realize that this kind of fist is not simple if they have a heart.

"Yang Yi Long guessed correctly. I broke into that Ghost Street by mistake and learned skills that don't belong to our world." Li Yi didn't hide it anymore and simply admitted it generously. After all, since things had reached this point, hiding it would be a bit hypocritical.

"Ghost Street? That's really dangerous," Xu Ming sighed. "By the way, don't pass on the fist technique you learned randomly."

"Why is that?" Li Yi asked casually.

Xu Ming immediately said, "A technique is more valuable than you hunting ten *biao*. Once you pass it on to a second person, when they take your fist technique and sell it for money, you will suffer a big loss. So it's best to keep it secret. If you are really short of money one day and want to sell it, I suggest you contact Yang Yi Long."

"He is very generous. I believe he will offer a satisfactory price."

"I'm not short of money for the time being, and I don't have the idea of wanting to sell the fist technique yet," Li Yi said seriously.

"It's fine, I'm just reminding you," Xu Ming said.

Li Yi nodded. "Thank you. Since you said so, I have an idea in my heart."

"That's good. There's nothing else. Then I'll go first. You have my contact information. If you have anything, you can find me." After Xu Ming gave a few instructions, he left with his assistant. ===== CHAPTER 40 =====
