They had lived in the Oracle's realm for an entire month without them noticing. During this month, Xia Tian had never dual cultivated with any of his women, and they had only focused on improving their combat skills.
At first, Xia Tian planned to go home after they met the Oracle, but he finally decided to train his women first, mainly after he listened to his answers about the people stalking the Seven Star World.
Moreover, Xia Tian didn't always live with them, so he wanted his women to be able to protect themselves.
Shi Weishou, Tian Longma, and Ye Qingyue shared the task of training the women, and the three of them were extremely satisfied with their progress.
Even though Xia Ning and Liu Ying were not as skilled as the other women in fighting, they had at least started to have the courage to fight.
Although they initially felt overwhelmed carrying out their training, they slowly adapted to the training given to them.
Chen Xue, Yao Mei, Xiang Yin, and Li Qingyi also progressed well.
Tian Longma, besides training Liu Meng to fight, also taught her about medical knowledge, especially since she has a strong light energy as half of the winged race. Shui Liuli and Yao Mei also studied under his tutelage; they liked studying medicine.
Apart from training Feng Xian'er to fight beasts, Shi Weishou taught her many things about formation arrays, and he also taught her to read the immortal language.
As for the young women, Bing Huang, Mo Xiaoqi, Murong Mengxin, Yao Yin, Yu Suya, Fan Quexian, and Su Fei had significant developments.
Although Zhu Honglian, Xia Xing, Yu Suyin, Bai Zhixian, Ran Ling'er, Yin, and Xin had also improved a lot during their training, they still needed to catch up with the other young women.
As for Murong Yuexin, since she's still too young, her portion of the training isn't as rigorous as the other women's.
Mu Ruxue, Yue, Jin Ye, and Fu Jie's abilities were unquestionable, and they could carry out the training program that Shi Weishou and Tian Longma gave them with great ease.
On the other hand, Bai Yinyue had not trained with them but had specially trained with the Oracle to deepen her ability to read Fate's will.
"They really are amazing." The Oracle said as he watched them with his senses. "Unfortunately, some of them are not destined to become his women; they will part ways with him in the future."
Bai Yinyue nodded in agreement with him. "I thought that Li Qingyi, Yao Mei, and Yao Yin would never be his woman."
"Li Qingyi and Yao Mei are indeed not fated to be his women, but you were wrong about Yao Yin." Bai Yinyue turned to him, and the Oracle explained to her. "That little girl may still be his woman, but she is too stubborn to accept Little Tian and cares more about her cultivation. However, there will be times when she changes, but only she can decide whether to change for the better or, the worse."
"What do you mean by she will change for the worse?" Bai Yinyue asked with a raised eyebrow, especially since she didn't see any other image of Yao Yin.
The Oracle sighed and looked at Bai Yinyue. "The secrets of heaven can't be revealed, but I believe you will get the answer in the future."
Bai Yinyue could only nod helplessly, but she was also wondering in her heart about Yao Yin.
The Oracle gently patted Bai Yinyue on the head. "You don't need to think about that now; it will only happen far in the future."
Bai Yinyue sighed softly. "I understand."
"What about your big sister? Do you have to think of a way to get her closer to Little Tian?" the Oracle asked.
Bai Yinyue sighed again after hearing his question; she then answered him. "I've also thought about it, but Sister Zhongying is very tough, and she won't accept Tian just like that."
The Oracle nodded in understanding. "She's the White Tiger, so it's natural for her to act like that. But you don't need to worry too much about it; they will meet again soon, and I'm sure Little Tian can do something about it."
"En." Bai Yinyue nodded in agreement. "Tian will be going to the Holy Central Continent soon, so I think they will meet there. Moreover, I can see that Sister Zhongying is quite curious about him, so I believe she will come to see him later."
The Oracle simply nodded at her and spoke again. "You made the right decision by sending Fan Ying to Tian Qilian's side. If anything were to happen to her and their child, then Little Tian would definitely be furious and lose control, especially since that child was his first child in tens of thousands of years."
"Honestly, Tian can take Tian Qilian with him, but it will affect the Fate of many people, so I deliberately forbade him to pick him up, and I sent Little Ying to protect them." The Oracle nodded in understanding, and Bai Yinyue continued with a soft sigh. "However, Tian can't wait to pick them up, and I'm sure he will as soon as we return to our planet."
"It does not matter anymore." The Oracle shook his head at her. "The presence of Nalan Qing and Ran Qing has already changed his fate a little; they shouldn't have met Little Tian so soon."
"Hmm?" Bai Yinyue raised her eyebrows because the image of them that appeared in her mind was different from his.
The Oracle looked up at the sky and said to her again. "You don't need to forbid him from picking up Tian Qilian and their child anymore, and it would be best if you asked him to pick them up as soon as possible. That way, you could save some people's lives."
"All right." Bai Yinyue nodded in agreement. "After we return to our planet later, I will ask him to pick them up."

Sometime later, Xia Tian and the women had finished their final training, and the women then prepared for a small banquet before they returned to the Seven Star World.
On the other hand, Xia Tian was relaxing in a hot spring with Shi Weishou and Tian Longma. "Has that old man told you about his remaining life?"
"Yes." They nodded at him, and their expressions became grave at the memory.
Xia Tian sighed heavily and looked up at the sky. "I've known him most of my life, but we'll eventually part ways in this life."
"Brother Tian, will you come back here at the end of his life?" Shi Weishou asked in a gloomy tone.
Tian Longma also spoke to him. "I hope you can accompany him in his last moments, Brother Tian."
Xia Tian didn't immediately answer their questions; he knew the Oracle didn't want to meet him at the end of his life. However, he had known him for too long, and he had also guided him to become the strongest in the past. Before long, he let out a low sigh and answered them. "You two don't need to worry; even if she forbade me to see him, I would definitely come here to accompany him at the end of his life."
"That's good!" Shi Weishou exclaimed happily. "I'm sure he'll be happy if you come to meet him."
"I thought so." Tian Longma nodded in agreement.
Xia Tian then looked at them. "Are the two of you going to Yinyue's side after he dies?"
Shi Weishou and Tian Longma exchanged glances briefly, then nodded at him. "Yes, we have protected the Oracle for a very long time, so we will also protect his successor."
"Good." Xia Tian smiled, satisfied with their decision. Even though he already had plans to bring his women to live in the fortress when they went to a higher realm, but he knew that they wouldn't be able to stay in it for too long, especially Bai Yinyue, so he wanted Shi Weishou and Tian Longma to be by her side to protect her.
.

Sometime later, the women had finished preparing a small banquet, and they gathered and ate together while talking about light things.
Xia Tian also took out a few jugs of Drunken Immortal Wine for them to enjoy together, but he kept staring at the Oracle, thinking about their time of separation. 'Sigh, if only I could find a way to make them immortal, he wouldn't have to die.'
However, Xia Tian suddenly heard the Oracle's voice in his mind. 'You are wrong about that, Little Tian. Even if you find a way to make us immortal, I will still die.'
'Is there no other way, old man?' Xia Tian asked in a disappointed tone.
The Oracle shook his head. 'Only one oracle can exist in this universe, so it's my fate to leave this universe later.'
Xia Tian didn't say anything else, his mood became even worse upon hearing that, and he immediately drank his wine unrestrainedly, confusing his women.
