In the ensuing period, whether within aristocratic households or ordinary families, there was an increasing emphasis on strict supervision and education for the women in their midst. Nannies were not only hired in greater numbers but were also tasked with instilling discipline and teachings.

Within ordinary households, some individuals, anxious to ensure compliance, resorted to direct reprimand and corporal punishment for the women in their families, fearing they would prove hard to persuade.

Jinwei Land grew even more tumultuous as a result. The heightened scrutiny and harsh criticism only deepened the yearning among these women for the pagoda. If they could cultivate and possess power, they wouldn’t have to endure the casual maltreatment inflicted by others, leading to such miserable lives.

The entire Jinwei Land was in disarray.

Conversely, inside the pagoda, an aura of tranquility reigned.

The pagoda featured nine levels in total: the first floor for cultivation, the second for storage of elixirs and weaponry, the third for living quarters, while the fourth and above remained unutilized, deemed redundant at present.

The spiritual energy inside the pagoda was notably more abundant compared to the exterior world. Consequently, those women who embarked on their cultivation journey within these walls experienced notably accelerated progress compared to the men of Jinwei Land. Additionally, the pagoda routinely provided them with a steady supply of medicinal pills, further smoothing their path to cultivation.

Some among them possessed innate talent for cultivation but had been restrained from doing so. Others endured harsh lives and sought refuge within the pagoda. Gu Chaoyan embraced them all.

Those with prior experience instructed newcomers in the ways of cultivation, while the others taught them martial arts. For those without the aptitude for cultivation, this served as their sole recourse.

The presence of the pagoda held immense significance.

For a time, the pagoda had become a sanctuary for these women.

Yet, such an existence couldn’t persist indefinitely.

It was as though they had fled from one place only to find themselves running towards another, one where they didn’t truly hold any rights.

Xu Xunnan hadn’t delineated their next steps, leaving the nanny to inquire of

Gu Chaoyan, “What should we do next?”

In response, Gu Chaoyan smiled at those engrossed in their cultivation, projecting an air of total assurance. She replied, “Our next course of action isn’t solely our responsibility, but rather something that falls within the purview of the court.”

“I believe it won’t be long before they come searching for us. When that moment arrives, we can voice our terms.”

The nanny, upon hearing her response, found it quite reasonable.

Their current situation was unchangeable. They couldn’t persist in this manner. What came next appeared to be a matter for Jinwei Land’s imperial court to deliberate, and an urgent matter at that.

Over these past days, numerous individuals had congregated outside the pagoda, attempting to cajole or deceive these women into returning home. However, they had all remained steadfast in their refusal, indicating that they held no alternative.

Continuing in this vein wouldn’t merely be a concern for these women; it would require careful consideration by the Imperial Court.

Consequently, the atmosphere within the pagoda took on a renewed sense of harmony.

As for those officials and aristocratic families, there was much to trouble them within their homes.

Initially, when the Emperor had issued the three-day ultimatum, they hadn’t deemed it to be a particularly arduous task. They believed it was merely a matter of offering sufficient incentives to entice the women to return. After all, they knew full well the potential consequences they would face if they chose to remain in exile.

However, at present..

No matter what was said or done, the women refused to return.

What on earth were they going to convey to the Emperor?
