After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess

Before and After the Great Calamity

“I know, father.” Zhao Anqi nodded in understanding.

After seeing that his daughter was so sensible and not as noisy as before, the tenderness in Zhao Desheng’s eyes grew even more.

“My good daughter, I’m very pleased that you’re so sensible. It seems that you’ve learned something in the Academy this time.”

Then, his expression changed. “The main family has gone too far. They really think that I, Zhao Desheng, am easy to bully. This time, I will let them see that they will have to pay the price if they dare to offend me!”

“Dad,” Zhao Anqi said worriedly, “why don’t we just hold it in for a little longer? There’s no need to act up now.”

Zhao Desheng raised his eyebrows. He couldn’t believe that this was really his daughter. However, after looking at her for a while, he realised that she was really worried for him, and he was relieved.

“Don’t worry, my dear daughter. I never do anything I’m not confident in.”

He patted Zhao Anqi’s head and continued, “It’s not time to launch a full-scale attack on the main family yet, but I could still give them some trouble with my current influence. This will let them know that we’re not to be trifled with.”

“A bunch of old men. They really think that I, Zhao Desheng, am a tiger without teeth that they can bully as they please.”

“However, before that, I have to take care of some people first. They really think that they can ride on my head and fart just because they have the main family supporting them!”

Zhao Anqi’s heart was filled with hatred when she heard this. She remembered how those people from the Public Security Department just coldly watched her family’s crisis from the side. Her father better teach them a lesson!

…

“Aren’t you curious about what happened?”

Back in the dormitory, Zhou Mingrui and Yan Wuyue sat on the sofa in the living room. After a long while, Zhou Mingrui broke the silence.

“You can tell me if you are comfortable with sharing. I don’t intend to pry into your secrets,” Yan Wuyue said calmly.

“I remember you telling me that you’re a reincarnated person, right?” Zhou Mingrui suddenly said.

“Yes, I am.” Yan Wuyue nodded and then said, “You can’t possibly tell me that you’re also a reincarnated person, right?”

“No, of course not.” Zhou Mingrui shook his head and explained a portion of what happened.

It took Yan Wuyue quite a while to digest the content.

“So the Great Calamity catastrophe is actually caused by the plane’s spiritual energy tidal storm. I was wondering where the endless monsters came from. So that’s how it is.” Yan Wuyue muttered to herself.

“It didn’t say there was a way to stop it, did it?” she asked after a moment.

Zhou Mingrui shook his head.

Yan Wuyue suddenly recalled her memory from the last moments of her previous life. When she was doing her best in the battle, she had a vague feeling.

Somewhere in the distance, a pair of eyes was watching her.

Now that she thought about it, it turned out that it was probably the Lord of Destiny.

If that was the case, then the rank 7 and Rank 8 monsters that she had viewed as her greatest enemies might all be mere ants in front of the Lord of Destiny.

Moreover, there was once after clearing a monster tide, she had obtained that metallic tablet made of an unknown material. The description that exceeded the mythical realm could also be real.

“We don’t have to worry about that Lord of Destiny for the time being. There are still nearly nine years before the Great Calamity, so we have plenty of time to prepare for it and improve our strength during this time.”

Yan Wuyue collected her thoughts and began to analyze, “Our current strength is improving much faster than in my previous life. Our foundations are also much stronger, and our summoned spirits are much stronger.”

“Actually, I secretly have a worry. Even if we really reach the legendary level, who knows what other terrifying existences and enemies can potentially exist?”

“When the time comes, we’ll still be lacking in strength. Just like in our previous life, our heritage and civilization will still be completely destroyed by monsters.”

“Since you’re the descendant of the Lord of the Spirits, you naturally have the potential to grow to their level eventually. Then we have hope to end this disaster completely.”

As she spoke, Yan Wuyue exuded an aura unique to human leaders, a temperament of righteousness.

“I think it’s more practical to think about how to deal with the Zhao family now.” Zhou Mingrui’s words destroyed the mood.

Yan Wuyue gave Zhou Mingrui a reproachful look and said, “The main Zhao family’s most powerful elder is only a level 83 Diamond grade.”

“I forgot to tell you that the world’s environment before and after the Great Calamity was very different.”

“Even the current level 80 powerhouses would be in a difficult situation when facing a level 30 monster after the Great Calamity, so at that time, our levels and tiers were reset.”

“After the Great Calamity, a level 40 Gold grade can easily defeat any level 100 powerhouse in today’s context. He can even easily take on three or four of them.”
