The moment Da Ming woke up, he was astonished. "What object was lying there?" he spoke out loud to himself. After all, there was a palm sized bell-shaped object next to him. After observing that object for a few minutes, he could make out a few words. "Soul Bell" was written on the surface of the object.
"Hmm, so that was what that stifling feeling was!" Da Ming realised. Then, he started to remember that he had transcended to another world. He thought to himself that there should be a gift somewhere for him. After all, as a senior of the astral plane, there should at least be something right?
Alas, the next moment, a brash girl with a refined appearance dashed into the room he was in. "Li Dong Xian! Are you finished playing with that god damned artifact you got from the Merchant's Market?" she yelled into his ears. Da Ming immediately thought "So this fellow's name is called Li Dong Xian. Alright, time to check his memories."
It all came into Da Ming's mind like a surging tide. Dong Xian was a noble's Son who was a person who liked to show off. He went to the Merchant's market to find a new object to show others what money could do. Unfortunately, he took a liking to this "Soul Bell" Da Ming was previously trapped in and swapped places with him.
According to Dong Xian's memories, this girl was his elder sister Mei Sa. Mei Sa was the one currently hurling insults at him. It was a wonder how Dong Xian could put up with her nagging.
He retorted back " Are you done with your insults? If you are done, then leave now!" Mei Sa only sneered at him " Ah, so my sissy of a brother who loves showing off finally got some backbone. Then let's see if you can handle Father's wrath after missing the banquet for Mother's birthday!"
He scratched his head in hearing what she said. Then, he realised that today was his host's mother's birthday! Then, his new body shivered instinctively at the words "Father's wrath" After all, Dong Xian has previously experienced how hard it was to recover from a hundred lashings from that antique dragon skin whip.
He used his hands to pat out all the creases on his clothes and tried his best to alleviate his disheveled look, before following Mei Sa that darned sister of his.
Of course, he took the bell along with him. It could be of use to him. He haven't even tried testing it out yet. He could not let anyone find out about the existence of this bell. There could be a chance that soul-swapping happened again.
Ding! A sound rang out from the bell. Dong Xian started to have cold sweat. Did anyone hear that ding? [System Active. Overlord System drawn from 1 trillion systems.] Dong Xian could not believe how many systems there were. Was there a dedicated team for pumping out system after system? Whatever, as long as he got a cheat system, he was fine with it.
