Chapter 1369 - 1278: Queen of Violence 1
Just now there was no wind, and the two doors were huge with large gold nails on them. Liu Shuangshuang had looked closely when she pushed the door earlier and confirmed that the nails were indeed pure gold, shining brightly.Such enormous doors, even without wind, unless there’s a typhoon, can’t close these doors, so the doors really closed by themselves!
Looking at the massive lock on the door, Liu Shuangshuang felt like a turtle caught in a jar, a feeling of walking into a trap—are they afraid she’ll run away!
Liu Shuangshuang shook her head, turned, and continued walking inside; at the entrance was a huge garden full of flowers and plants, most of which were rare species.
Liu Shuangshuang had an excellent eye; she realized that any flower or plant dug out here would be a priceless treasure. Having just entered, Liu Shuangshuang felt the place was rich.
After taking a few steps into the garden, Liu Shuangshuang felt like many pairs of eyes were staring and scrutinizing her. The wind blew through the flowers and trees, rustling leaves, creating a feeling of countless people whispering.
This sensation of being watched, scrutinized, and even commented on was quite uncomfortable. Liu Shuangshuang stopped and glanced at the surrounding flowers and trees, extending her slender, fair fingers.
A wisp of golden flame appeared at her fingertips, flickering and dancing; as the flame emerged, the surrounding air instantly warped, indicating that this tiny wisp was terrifyingly hot.
The flame at Liu Shuangshuang’s fingertips made the uncomfortable feeling of being watched, scrutinized, and commented on disappear completely.
The ground trembled slightly underfoot, and Liu Shuangshuang looked down to see a delicate, unknown species of flower pulling its stem from the earth, weaving them into two leg-like forms.
Then the flower walked with woven-legged stems to Liu Shuangshuang, raised its flower disk, seeming to study her while its flower wobbled.
At the same time, a youthful girl’s voice echoed in Liu Shuangshuang’s mind: "Are you the new employee here for the interview?"
Liu Shuangshuang’s expression was cold, though her heart stirred. This Special Handling Office No.1 was indeed extraordinary; even a random flower was a sentient being.
Liu Shuangshuang said little, nodding slightly with a crisp acknowledgment: "Hmm," not speaking further.
The flower twisted its disc happily, its voice carrying a merry tone: "Ah, finally we have a new employee here. Welcome, welcome, I’m called Du’er, responsible for hospitality, please follow me."

Liu Shuangshuang’s world in this cycle was quite interesting; it appeared as a normal modern society on the surface, yet it held numerous non-human intelligent creatures.
These intelligent beings were so numerous that the government could hardly conceal them, so humans knew there were wise creatures nearby, living harmoniously alongside them.
Intelligent creatures shared the same lifespan as humans, experiencing birth, aging, sickness, and death, with human emotions. Many humans regarded these intelligent beings as family, not uncommon to rely on one another.
The emergence of these intelligent creatures was entirely unpredictable; it could be a flower, a grass, a door, or even a car. No one knew the reasoning behind their sentience.
For example, in the same factory manufacturing cars, all would be normal, yet one car might suddenly gain intelligence, a wonder and mystery.
Intelligent beings, like humans, experienced desires and unique personalities; similarly, these creatures varied in morality, committing crimes and doing good deeds.
The Special Handling Office was akin to the human police department, specifically tasked with capturing and investigating malevolent intelligent creatures, whereas Special Handling Office No.1 was like the Special Forces, elite among elites, with high entry standards.
Though the recruitment notice Liu Shuangshuang previously received seemed quite jokingly unserious, it wasn’t distributed casually.
These recruitment notices were sent specifically to individuals capable of applying, implying ordinary people or the less capable couldn’t receive these applications.
In a world with intelligent creatures, humans naturally differ as well, possessing superpowers, ancient martial arts, etc., and Liu Shuangshuang in this life is an inheritor of a superpower-bearing ancient martial family.
The true inheritor of the ancient martial family was Liu Shuangshuang’s mentor Liu Zixu, although the entire Liu family had dwindled to just Liu Zixu.
Liu Shuangshuang was a foundling picked up by Liu Zixu from the mountains; Liu Zixu, who was carefree and disliked ties, never married or had children.
But without Liu Zixu having heirs, the Liu family’s legacy would sever entirely; thus, upon confirming Liu Shuangshuang was a rare talent in ancient martial arts, Liu Zixu made Liu Shuangshuang the family’s successor.
The saving grace this life for Shuangshuang is the absence of Heart Demon Seeds and no love to the death, like in the past life—no endless thinking about the man in the dark room.
If Liu Shuangshuang had one regret, it was lacking ability in her past life, only entering the ordinary Special Handling Office rather than the elite Special Handling Office No.1.
And tragically, dying young while pursuing a dangerous intelligent creature, failing to pass down the Liu family’s ancient martial legacy, an apology to her kind mentor.
Thus, in this life, Liu Shuangshuang’s mission was twofold: to enter Special Handling Office No.1 and recruit apprentices, continuing the Liu family’s ancient martial heritage, ensuring it isn’t lost.
When Shuangshuang arrived, Liu Shuangshuang had entered the ordinary Special Handling Office, while Special Handling Office No.1 never allowed direct applications, only with the employer’s recruitment notice was one eligible to apply.
To obtain this application, Liu Shuangshuang consistently showcased herself since entering this world, capturing numerous criminal intelligent beings, elevating her combat power to this world’s limits.
Given her capture of powerful, dangerous intelligent beings, typically subdued with outright violence, she earned the nickname "Queen of Violence."
Yet Liu Shuangshuang’s character in this life was quite cold, attributed to cultivating the Liu family’s ancient martial internal power, boasting calm mind, defense against evil.
The longer this mental method was practiced, the colder a person became; Liu Shuangshuang now achieving Great Success in cultivated methods, naturally cold like ice with scarce emotions like joy or anger.
Du’er led Liu Shuangshuang through the garden, rounding a lengthy corridor, finally entering the hall of Special Handling Office No.1.
After entering the hall, Liu Shuangshuang noticed numerous people already seated inside, likely all there for interview applications.
