The bright but not hot light illuminated the entire room. The five people, who were familiar with the darkness, squinted their eyes in discomfort. They looked somewhat nervous as their eyes landed on the figure. The profound monologue resounded in their minds.
The petite figure walked out of the light, but she did not land on the ground. Her feet were only a few centimeters away from the steel floor as she floated silently in the air.
A black gothic dress wrapped around her petite body. Her skin was as white as snow, and it looked as though it could be torn apart by the wind. Her dark purple hair hung down to her waist, and a red headband was tied into a butterfly shape. From afar, it looked like two pairs of cat ears. A strand of ahoge stuck out from her hair, adding a tinge of cuteness to her.
Her figure was petite and she looked like a twelve or thirteen year old girl. Her facial features were exquisite like a pixie's, but for some reason, she wore a white eyepatch over her left eye. Only her crystal-blue right eye was exposed. That eye was calm, but it seemed to contain the mountains and rivers of the world, as well as the sea of stars. It added a hint of sacredness to her beautiful face.
"Her Excellency Kali!"
The first to react was Chaos. Following that, the other three people in the corner of the room respectfully greeted her. Finally, even the white-haired elder lowered his head slightly and addressed the girl as "Her Excellency Kali".
Kali frowned slightly and said with a cold grunt, "If the ravings of the pixie are pleasant sounds of nature, then your clamor is the most ear-piercing sound. I can no longer tolerate my noble ears listening to your laughable quarrels, so I came out to say a few words. I can also use the light to disperse the disgusting aura in this room. "
The expressions of the five people in the room changed. Chaos's sharp eyes constantly darted around as she considered how to explain the disrespectful words she had said. Although she was secretly grumbling or even cursing the three powerhouses for their inaction, they had to do their best to show respect on the surface. If they were to be ruthlessly cast aside by the three powerhouses, the already desolate [Gaia] would probably be devoured by the other organizations in no time at all.
These three people did not give [Gaia] its glory, but they were the most important pillars that allowed [Gaia] to continue existing. They could do without [Gaia], and they could even abandon the four Division Ministers, but none of the three powerhouses could leave!
"Honorable Her Excellency Kali …" The most tactful Chaos, who was often appointed to negotiate with other organizations, quickly thought of an excuse.
"Stop!"
Kali immediately stopped Chaos from quibbling and said coldly, "I didn't come from the darkness to listen to all of you speak. Listening quietly is your greatest duty."
The expressions of the five people changed slightly. They immediately lowered their heads and tried their best to maintain the respectful expression on their faces, concealing the cautious anger in their eyes.
"You don't have to worry that I'll be angered by some of your words, because what you've said is the truth. To me, this organization is dispensable. It's better if it doesn't exist. If not for my thousand-year-old ice coffin buried deep beneath the City of Steel and the fact that I still have some attachment to this land, I would have left long ago for an even brighter world. "
Kali sighed gently and said, "However, since that person was willing to use three sacred items to exchange for my promise ten years ago, then I can barely be considered a member of [Gaia] before I leave. I do not know who Shi Xiaobai is, nor do I need to know. However, I will put an end to the topic of your dispute. "
When the four Division Ministers heard this, they could not help but look up at the beautiful girl. Although they were indignant that Kali had interfered with the competition for Mentor Shi Xiaobai, it was also a good thing if they could put an end to the dispute. They could not help but hope that they could become Kali's guide.
Kali turned to look at the muscular [Annihilation] and said, "What is justice? If killing one person to save a hundred is justice, then is killing a loved one to save a hundred strangers also justice? The justice everyone believes in is ultimately different. There is no need for you to teach them. Time is the best teacher. "
Annihilation was slightly surprised as he fell into deep thought.
Kali turned to look at the thin [Chaos] and said, "If you insist that scheming and viciousness are the key to survival, then you can try and see if you can survive more than three seconds in front of me. Do you understand? Absolute strength is the most important capital for survival. "
[Chaos]'s heart leaped as she felt a chill in her heart. She did not dare to retort.
Kali turned to look at the charming and enchanting Creation and said, "I have never experienced the matters between men and women, so I can't comment. However, I don't like the smell on your body. You remind me of a demonic dragon I saw thousands of years ago. Your body is filled with such an obscene aura. It's disgusting. "
Creation's face turned red as she cursed in her heart. So what if you are a virgin? However, she immediately realized something of utmost importance. [Annihilation] and [Chaos] had long realized this. The three of them looked up at the pork-fat [Order].
Since the three of them had been rejected, wouldn't the position of Shi Xiaobai's teacher be given to [Order]?
"I believe [Order] is not suitable to be Shi Xiaobai's teacher, because …" The most irascible [Creation] immediately objected.
"Yea."
Kali suddenly acknowledged softly, interrupting [Creation's] words. At the same time, a pale ice-cold aura suddenly surged from all directions and swept towards [Creation]. [Creation] screamed and after struggling for a second, he turned into an ice sculpture.
"Yes, you spoke. I heard you. In that case, you should just stay in this ice."
Kali said softly before turning to look at the pork-fat [Order].
[Order] looked somewhat nervous. He constantly used his fat hands to rub his thighs, as though he wanted to say something but did not dare to say a word.
Kali frowned slightly and said, "Between a human and a pig, I believe that child named Shi Xiaobai would prefer to be the former. I'm very disappointed. The four of you are not suitable to be a teacher. That's because what you should do the most is find a good teacher to learn from. "
The four of them were rendered speechless. You had rejected the four candidates, so who was going to be Shi Xiaobai's teacher? In the end, you are here to find fault!?
The elder who had been silent all this while had his eyes lit up. The opportunity he had been waiting for had finally arrived. At this moment, as long as he thickened his face and recommended himself, the position of teacher would be easily obtained.
The elder coughed and was about to speak.
"I'll do it." Kali suddenly said softly.
The elder stared, while the other four were immediately dumbfounded. They had always overlooked this possibility. This was because Kali had always disdained interacting with humans. Sleeping deep underground was what she liked to do the most. It was impossible for her to be willing to be Shi Xiaobai's teacher, even if they were willing to offer three sacred items. From their understanding, Kali was the person who was least likely to vie with them for the position of Shi Xiaobai's teacher. Hence, when they were considering the three powerhouses, they had directly excluded her.
But at this moment, why did she say such words?
"I will be his teacher, but I will not teach him anything. Of course, as his teacher in name, I will ensure his safety, allowing him to grow freely as he wishes. "
Kali said softly, "This matter is decided. I'll go meet Shi Xiaobai now. I hope his darkness and light will not disgust me."
Just as Kali's voice faded, the numerous beams of light that filled the room suddenly condensed in front of her, forming a cave of light. She ignored everyone and with a light step, she walked into the light. Immediately, she disappeared from the room. The light also left with her, returning darkness to the room once again.
A shadow enveloped the four people in the corner once again. Three sounds of rapid breathing sounded like they were filled with anger. The sound of ice shattering resounded. A woman's scream was filled with hatred, while the elder in the middle only sighed deeply.
