Chapter 1528 1523: Illita Family
"Su, you can't treat your old friend like this. This time, I've come to solve a lot of troubles for you and made a significant contribution to winning the heart of your beloved! Can't you understand the difficulty of an old friend? It's just to teach for some time, and I'll hire a batch of art design professors to ease your burden later... ""Can't you hire them now?"
"The school previously had no plans or development in this area, and also the Eastern Martial Arts..."
"What does that have to do with me?"
Cruise: "..." I have a phrase, MMP, which I don't know whether to say or not?
The art design major and the Eastern Martial Arts major were set up for you!
Though Cruise was frustrated in his heart about this matter, he didn't voice his reason.
He chose to put this matter aside for now.
The two main reasons he came to Huaxia this time were actually both related to Su Chen.
It's just that the former had a more direct connection.
He looked at Su Chen with a slightly serious gaze: "Su, the next thing I want to talk to you about is the second matter. I wonder if you still remember that time when you rescued me, you also saved a little girl?"
"Hmm? I remember, what about it?" Su Chen recalled the situation at that time.
When he rescued Cruise, there seemed to be a little girl beside Cruise.
To be more precise, it should have been a teenage girl around fourteen or fifteen years old.
But foreign people tend to mature earlier, so maybe that girl was only eleven or twelve years old.
However, Su Chen wasn't interested in paying attention to a little girl at that time.
But why did Cruise suddenly bring her up today?
"She is the little princess of the Illita Family."
'Illita Family', Su Chen recalled and had no impression of this family.
Seeing Su Chen's confused expression, Cruise looked pained, dear Mr. Death God, can you focus?
You know nothing about the Dark World, and yet you've made quite a name for yourself in it.
But seeing Su Chen didn't understand the meaning of the 'Illita Family', he still proactively explained: "The Illita Family is an ancient family, known in legend as a group with magical heritage..."
Cruise explained for a long time, while Su Chen caught one key point: "You said they are witches?"
Cruise cautiously nodded, confirming Su Chen's statement.
"A witch family, interesting." Su Chen became somewhat interested in Cruise's topic: "Go on, please."
"That girl is the little princess of the Illita Family, but initially she was considered the least gifted member, and a disgrace to the Illita Family. I met her during that kidnapping incident." Cruise fell into memories.
The Illita Family, distant from the world, is considered an ominous symbol in ancient legend, descendants of witches.
Women of the Illita Family are endowed with various kinds of 'magic power' at birth.
But as the little princess of the Illita Family, the purest bloodline inheritor, she had no magical power at all.
Wouldn't this be a disgrace to the Illita Family?
Beiyar Illita, the little girl, lived under the scorn and discrimination of the Illita Family members from a young age.
The psychological impact on a young girl was unimaginable.
And her father, as the head of the Illita Family, had countless other issues to worry about, so he had no time to care for a young girl.
Thus, Beiyar's childhood shadow was created.
Later, somehow, she 'escaped' from the Illita Family's castle and came to the bustling world.
But what could an inexperienced little girl with no magical power do, even if she was a member of the Illita Family?
So, she was kidnapped.
However, the kidnappers didn't know her identity, they just couldn't resist 'abducting' such an adorable little girl on a whim.
In fact, that group of kidnappers wasn't ordinary at all; they were a criminal gang with a notorious reputation internationally.
Otherwise, Su Chen wouldn't need to step in.
Su Chen happened to receive a job at that time.
A client's goods were swiped by this group of kidnappers, and the client, in anger, offered ten million US dollars to hire Su Chen to wipe out the kidnappers.
You might ask why ten million was enough to make Su Chen take down a seemingly low-level group of kidnappers?
The reason was simple: Su Chen needed money badly at that time, and the Reverse Dragon Group was short on funds too.
Though the Reverse Dragon Group belonged to a certain department in Huaxia, their connection was rather shallow, except with Long Lan, the then head of the Reverse Dragon Group.
Even Su Chen later didn't have the right or ability to directly contact any department in Huaxia.
The contact person couldn't be found, which led to the Reverse Dragon Group becoming rootless after Long Lan's betrayal.
This was also why Su Chen decided to dissolve the Reverse Dragon Group.
Without organizational background, the Reverse Dragon Group couldn't be sustained by Su Chen and the Four Dragon Kings alone.
At its peak, the Reverse Dragon Group had fewer than 200 members.
Yet, what about Asura, Heavenly Judgment, Purgatory, these top three super assassin organizations?
Which of them didn't have thousands, even tens of thousands of members?
Besides, they have their own industries and sources of funding.
Take Heavenly for a simple example.
Was Heavenly rich?
Indeed, controlling so many poppy farms, they sold their opium products worldwide for a colossal amount each year.
Before Gu Niwei'er took over Heavenly, the annual income could reach nearly a hundred billion US dollars!
And the costs?
How much could those slaves cost?
This was just Heavenly.
Then Asura, Purgatory, those even more terrifying assassin organizations?
The Reverse Dragon Group's past glory couldn't have existed without figures like Long Lan and Su Chen.
However, the stronger he got, the more Su Chen realized the Dark World wasn't so simple.
A Saint might be very strong, but only when compared to ordinary people and general martial artists. Facing someone like the Shura King, a Saint was nothing more than an ant.
And had Su Chen not acquired the Defeating Heaven Sword Technique and other inheritances, he might not have been able to contend with the Shura King.
A Human King level being and a person from the Saint Realm were practically from two different worlds.
...
Back to the point, it was purely by accident that Cruise became acquainted with Beiyar Illita.
Later, they were both saved by Su Chen. Surprisingly, at the age of only thirteen, Beiyar Illita developed a vague affection for Su Chen, this 'hero'.
And she swore she would marry Su Chen when she grew up.
In a blink of an eye, five years had passed. Su Chen barely remembered the golden-haired doll-like girl, but today, Cruise came to him and said that Beiyar Illita needed his help?!
Su Chen didn't know that during those kidnapped days, Cruise and Beiyar had already formed a godparent relationship…
