How could Zhou Xuan not know? The range of his superpower was fifty meters around him, but the Prince's mansion in Tuluk was extremely vast, stretching for thousands of meters, unlike a small household. It was impossible to monitor the entire mansion. The buildings were too wide and expansive, which had both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage was that it was not easy for the opponent to find out where the target was, but the disadvantage was also great. Because the territory was so wide, it was more difficult to monitor and manage.
Zhou Xuan didn't think much of the people Hu Shan and others had arranged to monitor him. There was nothing strange about it. As long as they didn't do anything disrespectful to him, there was no need to pay attention. He would have done the same if he were in their shoes, unless it was someone he completely trusted.
Yi Xin followed Zhou Xuan into his room, looked around, and exclaimed, "Mr. Zhou, your room is so beautiful!"
Zhou Xuan smiled faintly. The room was beautiful only because he held a high position in the prince's heart. If he didn't have that kind of strength and ability, no one would give him a dilapidated thatched hut.

Zhou Xuan dragged the ammunition box in front of him. Looking at the large box of bullets, Yi Xin was a little scared, always worried that it would explode. But the most natural person was Wei Xiaoyu.
Wei Xiaoyu was extremely familiar with firearms and bullets, and would never even think about such an unfounded worry.
This was the first time Zhou Xuan had faced so many bullets, but he possessed superpowers, had a purpose, and could absolutely control these bullets, so he wasn't worried.
He reached out and took out a bullet. He squeezed the bullet tip, but it wasn't loose at all. After thinking for a moment, he tilted his head and looked at Yi Xin, saying, "Miss Yi, you should go back and rest. I'll call you if anything happens. It's not safe here right now. It's best if you don't stay here. It would be bad if the bullet went off and exploded!"
Yi Xin's expression changed slightly, but she forced a smile and said, "You scared me again... Okay, I really am a little sleepy. Just call me if you need anything!"
Zhou Xuan had deliberately sent Yi Xin away. After Yi Xin left the room, Wei Xiaoyu closed and locked the door before asking, "Is there anything else you need?"
Wei Xiaoyu knew, of course, that Zhou Xuan used his special abilities to modify these bullets, which was why she sent Yi Xin away.
"Xiaoyu, get me some water, I need some water!" Zhou Xuan had no reason to hide anything from Wei Xiaoyu and immediately asked her to get him some water.
Wei Xiaoyu quickly took two large glass cups to the bathroom, filled them with water, and placed them on the table in front of Zhou Xuan. Without Zhou Xuan moving his hand, he used his ice energy to condense the two glasses of water into solid ice, so cold that Wei Xiaoyu could feel a chill from afar.
The ice formed from these two cups of water was so cold that it exceeded the coldest temperature level on Earth. At this point, Wei Xiaoyu couldn't break it even with a hammer. Zhou Xuan then transformed and absorbed the surface layer of the bullet heads, which loosened the bullet heads. Zhou Xuan removed the bullet heads one by one from the cartridge cases and then transformed the two ice blocks into countless ice bullet heads according to their size and shape.
Wei Xiaoyu immediately helped by loading the ice bullets one by one into the cartridge cases. Zhou Xuan then filled a cup with water and dripped a drop onto each bullet. With the application of his ice energy ability, the ice bullets were immediately and firmly solidified inside the cartridge cases.
The density was not much different from those real bullets, but Zhou Xuan knew that because he had filled it with bullets made of ice, even though he had lowered its temperature to an extremely low point, the surrounding ambient temperature was too high, and it was only a matter of time before it melted. It would only take a little longer than ordinary ice to melt, and it would eventually melt anyway.
Zhou Xuan had figured out the problem. Then he used his special ability to divide it into a very small amount, put it into the ice bullet, and then condensed it into an independent individual. In this way, a special ability bullet was made.
Of course, Zhou Xuan had Hu Shan and the others shoot bullets at the walls in the basement in the same way, but the bullet heads were real, only with independent alien energy condensed inside.
However, once those bullets are fired, the bullet heads cannot disappear. But the ice bullets that Zhou Xuan has created now have bullet heads made of pure water frozen into ice. Once the superpower disappears after being fired, the protective shield of the ice block will be gone, the temperature will rise immediately, and the bullet will melt and disappear!
From this, Zhou Xuan immediately realized the reason for the assassin's bullet. Although the assassin did not use the same ice energy ability as him, the principle was similar. That is to say, the bullet's head was also made of special materials. After being fired, the special energy injected into the bullet disappeared, and the bullet also disappeared.
After re-infusing all the bullets with supernatural power, Zhou Xuan checked them one last time. All the hundreds of bullets had been modified. Now he just didn't know how long the supernatural power he had infused into the bullets would last. Basically, the moment the supernatural power disappeared was when the bullet head began to melt.
Zhou Xuan thought for a moment, then used ice energy to transform a few bullets formed from condensed water, infused them with alien energy, placed them on the table, and then could only wait to see how long the alien energy could be maintained on the bullets. This would determine how long Hu Shan and the others could maintain these alien energy ice bullets.
Wei Xiaoyu rested her chin on her hand, her eyes fixed on the bullets, looking quite adorable.
Zhou Xuan couldn't resist leaning over and kissing her on the cheek, his affection overflowing. Wei Xiaoyu smiled and pointed to her red lips, saying, "That doesn't count, it's here!"
Zhou Xuan chuckled, then bent down and extended his lips. Wei Xiaoyu met his lips in return, and the two shared a sweet kiss. As their tongues intertwined, they felt dizzy and completely forgot everything else.
Volume 1, Chapter 489: The Assassin Appears
Chapter 489 The Assassin Appears
In the evening, the servants of the Prince's Mansion served dinner. After the two ate, they did not go out to play. Instead, they closed the door and stayed in the room to be intimate. This put Hu Shan and the guards at ease. Since they did not go out and wander around, their surveillance would be much less intense and easier to maintain.
Prince Tuluk was also somewhat surprised. Zhou Xuan and Wei Xiaoyu were very straightforward, like two young people who had just fallen in love. They were inseparable and couldn't be apart for even a moment. This was the condition Zhou Xuan had when he agreed to become his subordinate. It seemed that this young Eastern man was a romantic, who didn't love the country or money, but only beauty.
Although Tuluk was surprised, he felt even more at ease with Zhou Xuan and his companion.
The next day, Zhou Xuan did not go out either, but waited in the room for the superpower to disappear. He kept probing until around 5 p.m. on the third day when the superpower disappeared.
From the time of injection until it disappeared, it was preserved in the bullet for a total of forty-eight hours, which is a full two days.
Zhou Xuan checked the supernatural abilities of the ice bullets again, and sure enough, they all disappeared at that moment. After confirming the duration of the supernatural abilities, Zhou Xuan used his supernatural abilities to infuse the bullets with his own.
As for those ice blocks used in the experiment, they began to melt in less than four or five minutes after the supernatural power disappeared. However, the original temperature of the ice blocks was too low, so the melting speed was extremely slow, but the slight change in the surface melting could not be hidden from Zhou Xuan.
However, as soon as Zhou Xuan channeled his supernatural power into the ice, the ice immediately stopped melting, demonstrating that the power effectively protected the ice.
Although the test was complete, Zhou Xuan didn't plan to talk to Hu Shan about it right away. There was no rush. Although the superpower bullets had a time limit, Zhou Xuan's superpower was limitless and endless. Like physical strength, it would recover after being used up and resting. As long as he had superpowers, he could make superpower bullets as many as he could. Then, when the superpowers expired, he could replenish them again, which would last for another forty-eight hours.
Because of the assassin, Prince Turuk has not dared to entertain any guests these past few days. The assassin's fright had been far more profound than any previous danger he had ever faced.
Prince Tuluk didn't dare go out for a whole week, constantly feeling lingering fear. On the eighth day, a friend at the police station told him that, just like when the prince was attacked, the police were searching the targets provided by Zhou Xuan. As a result, they actually encountered such a thing in an international hotel in Rabat. When checking the registration information at the international hotel, one of the foreigners sounded very similar to what Zhou Xuan had described, so they had to investigate him.
But disaster struck when the police tried to enter his room.
The four police officers who entered the room were shot dead in a surprise attack. The hotel's security room was terrified when they saw this. The security guards were very powerful to ordinary people, but they were like dogs to the wealthy. When faced with a more ruthless killer, they became like rats, not daring to even raise their heads.
Then they called the police. Only four police officers came to the hotel to investigate. After receiving the report, the police headquarters immediately dispatched a large number of officers because an officer had been attacked and killed. Such a matter could not be taken lightly.
However, by the time a large number of police officers arrived, the assailant who attacked the police had disappeared, and no bullets or other fatal causes were found in the wounds of the four police officers who were killed in the hotel.
The wound had the same effect as the bullet wound, but the fatal bullet could not be found in the wound or even in the whole body. When the police officers reported the attack to headquarters, the head of the police station immediately knew that they had encountered the person that Zhou Xuan had asked them to find, and quickly notified Prince Tuluk.
Upon receiving the letter, Prince Tuluk breathed a long sigh of relief, but his tension did not disappear. The reason for his relief was that he had also eliminated the last bit of suspicion he had about Zhou Xuan. Zhou Xuan had not been in contact with anyone outside the palace, and he himself was in the Prince's mansion. At the same time, the assassin who appeared in another place could not possibly be him. Therefore, Tuluk completely eliminated his suspicion about Zhou Xuan.
Tuluk quickly informed Zhou Xuan, who, upon hearing the news, immediately rushed to the scene at the International Hotel with several of Ladi's guards.
The bodies of the four police officers have not yet been moved, because the findings of the examination have truly shocked them.
The investigation revealed that the deaths of the four police officers were clear evidence of this. The wounds on all four men were determined to be caused by rifle bullets, but there were no bullets in the wounds, and no bullet heads or bullet holes were found in the room where the four officers died, which was strange.
When Zhou Xuan and Ladi arrived at the scene, they immediately understood that it was exactly the same as the situation when the prince was attacked. However, there were still holes in the concrete wall where the bullets had penetrated. Apart from that, the wounds and internal condition of the deceased were the same as the injuries of the guard who died in the prince's villa.
Zhou Xuan immediately used his special ability to probe again, and just like last time, he didn't get any other images, just a misty humanoid figure that was unclear and hazy, but its height, weight and build were discernible, similar to the results Zhou Xuan had obtained last time.
