Apocalypse Transmigration to the 70s: Tearing Apart Scumbags and Marrying the Soldier King

Xia Shuning, a survivor of a brutal apocalyptic world possessing powerful fire-based abilities, is struck by lightning while hoarding supplies and transmigrates into the body of a girl with the same name. The original host, Fang Shuning, was a fake daughter adopted by the Fang family, who subjected her to nineteen years of abuse, starvation, and forced labor. Her life was already miserable until her biological sister, Fang Jingyun, returned from Beijing to reclaim her true identity as a peasant's daughter. Fang Jingyun, revealed to be reborn with memories of her previous life as a victim of sexual slavery and poverty, seeks to steal Xia Shuning’s fiancé, Xu Min’an, a rising military officer, and enjoy the privileged life Xia Shuning was promised. Upon waking in a sorghum field, Xia Shuning is attacked by two men hired by the Fang family to assault her, but she swiftly disables them with a whip, demonstrating her combat prowess and cold ruthlessness.

The Fang family, led by the greedy and manipulative Zhao Laidi and Fang Shanjing, attempts to break off Xia Shuning’s engagement to Xu Min’an so that Fang Jingyun can marry him instead. They plan to sell Xia Shuning to the Wang brothers for a substantial bride price. Xia Shuning, however, turns the tables by demanding compensation for the broken engagement and exposing the Fang family’s corruption. She discovers that the wooden bracelet she wears is actually the Vermilion Bird Bracelet, an ancient divine artifact that speaks to her. After a painful soul contract, she gains control over a spatial inventory and a supernatural mall, along with new abilities like bacterial infection and potency boost. The bracelet also grants her Phoenix Tears, which heal her body and restore her health, transforming her from a malnourished victim into a radiant and powerful woman.

Xia Shuning’s revenge begins immediately. She uses her new abilities to humiliate the Fang family, causing them to fall into a manure pit and forcing Fang Jingyun to hand over stolen wealth. She uncovers the Fang family’s plot to drug and assault her again but sets a trap, leading to a public scandal where Zhao Laidi is caught in an illicit affair with Old Man Wang. The village turns against the Fangs, and their reputation is destroyed. Xia Shuning forces a legal severance of ties with the Fang family, leaving her with nothing but her freedom and a small amount of cash. She then moves in with a kind neighbor, Aunt Li, while secretly planning her next moves.

Under the cover of darkness, Xia Shuning raids the Fang household, stealing all their hidden wealth, including gold bars, jewels, and ration coupons, and planting evidence to frame them for various crimes. She uses Fang Jingyun’s bloodied fingerprint to forge report letters accusing the Fang family members of moral and political offenses. Her goal is to dismantle their lives completely, ensuring they face the consequences of their cruelty. As the story progresses, Xia Shuning prepares to hunt for more resources in the mountains and continue her ascent to power, using the Vermilion Bird Bracelet to accumulate merit points and unlock further abilities. The narrative sets the stage for a relentless campaign of retribution against those who wronged her, blending elements of supernatural fantasy with historical drama.
