Does I can get 257 as a output too? With that logic?

257 decimal = 0x0101. highbyte = 0x01, lowbyte = 0x01. x01 << 8 + 0x01 = 257 decimal, so sure.

Yes, you can use this method to send any value from 0 to 65535 (2^16 - 1). If you need larger values than that you can send an unsigned long using 4 bytes. That will give you a huge range of values. (0 to 2^32-1, which is over 4 billion.)
