Unknown Intrusion

Chapter 73 Transfer
The seal severely limited Song Qiongyao's talent and also seriously affected her physical health.

Essentially, it is a disease caused by poor blood vessel development.

She has a condition similar to congenital heart disease. This condition is still in its early stages, but it already causes Song Qiongyao discomfort from time to time. As she gets older, it will have even more fatal consequences.

There is a way to solve this problem.

There are not just one solution, but four.

The first solution is for Song Qiongyao herself to become stronger.

As long as she becomes stronger, she can suppress her bloodline, and each level she gains will improve it a little.

As strength continues to improve, one can be more at ease.

When you reach level nine, this critical problem will be solved.

The second solution was to rely on her aunt.

They share a deep blood connection, and the situation can be suppressed if the aunt is willing to make sacrifices.

Although it cannot be cured completely, if it can be suppressed for a longer period of time, the problem may be solved once she grows up.

The third method, which is the method used by Song Qiongyao's mother, is to get married, have children, and transfer a portion of the bloodline to the children.

The fourth method is to use force to suppress.

A level 15 power reduction ritual that reduces class level by 0.5.

If someone can reach level 15, and is willing to have 0.5 job levels reduced, their bloodline can be suppressed almost permanently.

Each of these four methods has its advantages and disadvantages.

The third and fourth methods, while not completely solving the problem, are the easiest to achieve.

First, she needs to get married and have children, transferring a portion of her bloodline to her offspring. This will buy Song Qiongyao more time. As long as she has enough time, she can work hard to level up or find someone who has already reached level 15 and is willing to reduce their professional level by 0.5 for her.

Reducing a level by half is no small matter for a level 15 character.

Even if we do find the person, getting them to agree will inevitably come at a great cost.

Whether it's money or something else, the price to pay will definitely be substantial.

If there are no relatives or friends and no other satisfactory bargaining chips, why would a level 15 sage reduce himself by half a level for a stranger?
The higher a person's skill level, the harder it is to level up.

Even reaching level half is not easy for ordinary professionals, let alone level fifteen.

"Qiong Yao, I understand you... but time is running out, and your aunt doesn't want to see you continue to delay."

"After all, our Li family originally had a level 15 sage who could suppress our bloodline, but due to the Sage's Rebellion of 1514-1515, our Li family no longer has one, so we have no choice but to resort to this method!"

"Don't hate your mother, she had no choice."

Song Qiongyao blinked and held back her tears.

She knew what her aunt was saying, but it was precisely because she knew what her aunt was saying that she had to work even harder.

"Aunt, please believe in me one more time. I will definitely become a professional before I turn 18!"

"If that doesn't work, I'll do what Mom did..."

The image of the boy seemed to appear before her eyes, and she lowered her gaze and sighed softly.

Although she doesn't accept her fate, if this is truly her destiny, then she will have to accept it whether she likes it or not.

Should I, like my mother, become a bad woman?
"It's good that you understand. Anyway, I've already given you your dowry, haven't I?" Li Ningzhuang blinked and pointed to the library.

Song Mansion
Under the moonlight, almost all the rooms were closed, and the windows were blocked by thick, dark gray curtains. Even though no one was there, you could sometimes hear the faint sound of wet, cold raindrops hitting the windows, or footsteps in the corridor.

Everyone in the rooms pretended not to see anything. Only a few armed men in black robes patrolled the mansion.

Night watchman!
Strictly speaking, the entire Song Mansion area falls under the concept of a "closed residential area," possessing natural protective features. However, given its size, it is bound to have vulnerabilities.

That's why there are night watchmen patrolling.

Although night watchmen are low-level professionals, or even half-professionals, they are not people that ordinary families can afford to support.

Song Shuying possessed both a noble title and considerable skill, and his wealth multiplied several times over, which enabled him to support the Night Watch!
Among all nobles of the same level, he could be considered to have both prestige and substance.

A mansion and a night watchman are a hallmark of the aristocracy.

A mansion without a night watchman is essentially like a residential community; once night falls, one cannot simply go out, as it would be dangerous.

Only with these can one go out at night.

Of course, no one would go out casually; that would just be asking for trouble.

In a corner shrouded in night, someone looked toward the Song residence.

The heavily guarded Song residence was like a perfect dome; let alone a person entering, even a bird flying in would likely attract the attention of those inside.

The person hiding in the darkness couldn't help but sigh softly.

This soft sigh seemed to startle someone, and one of the two night watchmen pacing back and forth looked over.

Those hiding in the darkness held their breath.

"What, did you find something?" one of them asked the man who was glancing over.

The man frowned, stared in that direction for a moment, then shook his head: "It's nothing."

One person said, "You're just being too cautious... But it's better to be cautious. Being suspicious is better than letting evil spirits in."

The Night Watchmen are paid a high salary; they can't just take it for nothing!
The Song family has been very generous to them, and they should repay the Song family in return.

After all, patrolling a mansion is much safer than patrolling the streets, and many officers in the police force want to find employment with nobles, or even their descendants.

In this world, being a servant of nobles for generations is both an honor and a safe thing.

The salary is also high.

Those in the darkness, seeing this, knew that there was no point in staying any longer.

The Song family's security was extremely tight, making it impossible to find a chance to sneak in!

Staying here would make us easily noticed, so it would be better to go back and report to our master first.

Thinking of this, the person hiding in the darkness turned and left.

After a while, less than a mile from here, he climbed into the coachman's seat, and the carriage started moving again.

It turned out to be a coachman.

"Huh, can't we go in?" The person sitting in the carriage, bored and waiting, took off her hat, and a few strands of her hair fell down. The moonlight streaming in from the carriage window made her face somewhat clear.

This was a young girl, the maid on a mission. Seeing that the coachman hadn't even managed to sneak into the Song residence, the maid was filled with contempt.

"You can't go in!" the driver said curtly.

The Night Watch is a profession known for its keen senses; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to detect evil spirits. He knew he didn't have that ability, even though he was a knight!
Or rather, it was precisely because he was a knight that he was acutely aware of the danger.

A terrible crisis.

The rise of the Song family was not simple.
