In the boundless void, two great beauties were chasing Oscar with their weapons drawn. However, Oscar was too fast, and they could not catch up to him at all.
After a while, the two women ended up fighting each other again, releasing all kinds of soul skills and soul bone abilities as if they were free of cost.
This battle lasted for more than half a day. In the end, the level 85 Gu Yue was slightly superior and narrowly won.
After losing, Qian Renxue was so angry that her lips twisted in frustration.
She had always believed that, as the heir of the Angel God, she should have no equal in this world. Yet now, not only had she been defeated by Dugu Yan, but she had also lost to Gu Yue, who was only level 85?
Seeing her like this, Oscar came forward to comfort her. Since victory and defeat had already been decided, it was best to stop thinking about it and live harmoniously together as one family.
Qian Renxue was fuming, thinking back to when she negotiated with Oscar,his hesitation now made sense. He must have known she couldn't beat Dugu Yan.
Gu Yue wasn't too happy either. As the Silver Dragon King with terrifying power at level 85, she thought she could easily suppress Oscar's other girlfriends. Yet Dugu Yan had proved stronger than her.
Dugu Yan's spirit and soul skills were extraordinary, and her domains were first-rate in strength.
As a titled Douluo, she was one whole level of power above the others. Otherwise, the outcome might not have been certain at all.
Still, defeat was defeat. As the ruler of the soul beasts, Gu Yue naturally kept her word and accepted the result.
Thus, the three women established their rankings: Dugu Yan would be the Empress, Gu Yue second, and Qian Renxue third.
Those who came after them would not affect their order. Unless someone could defeat them directly, they would remain in those positions.
At Oscar's level, it was no surprise that he had several companions. Whether for leadership or legacy, he was expected to have heirs.
Thinking of that, Gu Yue and Qian Renxue blushed slightly, while Dugu Yan chuckled behind her hand.
Seeing Dugu Yan's expression, the two immediately realized she must have already shared intimacy with Oscar,no wonder she looked so pleased.
Still, Dugu Yan was indeed strong. Though her innate conditions were inferior, her talent and determination were amazing, making both women secretly envious.
They also knew her achievements could not be separated from Oscar's help.
In other words, if they were in Dugu Yan's position, they might have done even better. It was a mix of admiration and jealousy.
However, the three women were open-minded. After laughing off their grudges and fighting it out, they found it hard to truly dislike each other anymore.
Dugu Yan softened her attitude a little, showing the grace of a future empress, and the other two were willing to let things go as well.
After all, they were all Oscar's women now, and in the future, their children would even call one another "aunt."
Oscar had no worries about Dugu Yan managing the household. She had studied etiquette at Yuexuan and graduated with honors,she knew perfectly well how to handle relationships and responsibilities.
As long as the three women lived harmoniously and the inner court remained peaceful, Oscar could focus on his work without concern.
With that settled, the date for the Eternal Emperor's grand wedding was decided.
It would be held a month later, on the seventh day of the seventh month. In the month leading up to it, the whole empire celebrated. To let everyone share in his joy, the Emperor distributed countless gifts and benefits throughout the realm.
Oscar was extremely busy during this time. Fortunately, the betrothal gifts had already been delivered earlier, saving him an extra trip.
Meanwhile, the three women focused on cultivating further to catch up with Oscar's strength.
Officially, they had returned to their own families to prepare for the wedding, but in truth, they all lived within the palace, taking turns to spend time with Oscar.
Each had ten days out of the month, and they also hoped to conceive his children soon.
They preferred to have their offspring born on the Douluo Continent rather than in the divine realm.
The reason was simple: once they ascended to godhood, resources and opportunities for childbirth would be far more limited.
With Oscar's current status, any child of his would be born into immense fortune, likely inheriting the strongest martial souls of both parents.
They would have endless resources for growth, and might even be able to inherit divine positions themselves.
Moreover, through proper cultivation and trials, no one could accuse Oscar of favoritism.
Their children, having true strength, would earn everything they gained.
There was another reason too: as one's power rose, conceiving children became increasingly difficult.
Oscar was already nearly half-divine, capable of challenging true gods,standing at the very peak of the continent.
The three women were each incredibly strong in their own right, so having children would not be easy.
To help them, Oscar had Ye Haitang and Yang Wudi prepare rare medicinal tonics to assist in conception.
Ye Haitang even teased Oscar, saying her granddaughter was waiting for him too,so why not include her as well in the wedding festivities?
Besides her, Xue Qingluan and Shui Bing'er were also brought up by their elders, who subtly encouraged Oscar to consider them.
Oscar could not refuse. He already felt affection for both, and since they had also grown strong and talented, with potential to reach godhood, he agreed to marry them too.
He arranged cultivation paths for Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling, helping them improve steadily and keep up with the others.
Within the palace, Dugu Yan, as the eldest, was the first to share time with Oscar. The two spent those days deepening their bond.
Gu Yue was next. Having lived for so long as the ruler of soul beasts, she was at first shy about such closeness, but Oscar's patience and care eventually made her open her heart completely.
Qian Renxue was similar,reserved at first but gradually affectionate, surrounding Oscar with warmth.
A month passed quickly. Even with Oscar's formidable endurance, the constant attention of three powerful and beautiful women left him physically exhausted but content.
Each of the three had her own unique charm, and their time together brought them closer in spirit as well.
As for Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling, they waited until after the official wedding, as the senior wives were not willing to share attention before the ceremony.
On the seventh day of the seventh month, the Eternal Emperor's wedding day arrived. The entire continent celebrated. The Empress Dugu Yan, Celestial Beauty Qian Renxue, Dragon Beauty Gu Yue, Ice Beauty Shui Bing'er, and Flower Beauty Ye Lingling were all wed on the same day.
The Emperor did not care for trivial formalities,he married his empress and concubines together.
As he said himself: his women were all equally precious to him.
Because of this statement, countless men across the empire were scolded by their wives for comparison,"Look at the Emperor! Even his empress and consorts are treated equally!"
The entire continent rejoiced. Great sects and soul master forces sent gifts, and even the Extreme North Alliance and Star Dou Alliance sent representatives.
Di Tian even wiped away tears in secret,his lord had finally married.
Elders like Gai Yue, Dugu Bo, Xue Qingluan, Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile Douluo, Ye Haitang, Qin Wenlong, and others all toasted Oscar, offering him rare treasures and wishing for many healthy children while they were still alive to see them.
That night, the Emperor shared his chamber with his brides. Dugu Yan, Gu Yue, and Qian Renxue, though shy at first, soon found harmony together. Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling, being newer to such closeness, were more reserved.
Time passed peacefully.
Three months after the wedding, Dugu Yan, Gu Yue, and Qian Renxue all showed signs of pregnancy. Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling, though not yet expectant, made great breakthroughs in their cultivation instead.
Oscar's energy was as nourishing as divine medicine for them; even without conceiving, their progress was remarkable.
During their early pregnancies, the three continued to train diligently, not letting it slow their progress.
Inspired, Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling pushed themselves harder, striving to reach their sisters' level as soon as possible.
Oscar also began planning divine inheritances for them, ensuring none of his wives would be left behind.
Gu Yue returned to the Ice-Fire Yin Yang Well to cultivate. Once she reached level 90, she could absorb the legacy of the Fire Dragon King and move toward level 100.
Qian Renxue went back to the Angel Sanctuary, aiming to reach higher levels before her child began to show,at least level 90 or beyond.
Dugu Yan, already a Titled Douluo, was no less ambitious. With both Shura God and Angel God inheritances within reach, she sought to master both paths, starting with her Shura trials.
Gu Yue, lacking a god's inheritance, intended to follow Oscar's path and reach divinity at level 100 through her own strength, aiming to become the next Dragon God.
Though she no longer had the Golden Dragon King's power, Oscar secretly planned to help her obtain it in the future. If she could refine it, she might reach the power of a God King.
As the Silver Dragon King, she shared the same origin, making her the best candidate to inherit that force.
If she succeeded, not only would her strength soar, but she would also secure peace for the Divine Realm,after all, she was Oscar's wife and thus bound to humanity.
Oscar had completely won both her heart and loyalty.
Dugu Yan planned to return to the Slaughter City to train until her pregnancy became visible.
Oscar personally escorted her there. Under her rule, the city was well-managed, with all criminals sent there to serve as trials for her divine test.
He also entrusted her with the Shura Demon Sword and warned her about the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King lurking in secret, to prevent ambushes.
With the sword in hand, Dugu Yan's divine trials would be far smoother, and given her strength, she was expected to complete most of them quickly.
Meanwhile, in the Slaughter City, Hu Liena and Oscar's clone Ao Yue were close to completing their hundred victories.
Oscar felt a bit guilty about her,she had been deceived by him, yet he could tell she truly had feelings for him. However, since he had captured her teacher Bibi Dong, he wasn't sure how things would go.
Still, a clone was part of himself, and fate had already tied them together. He might as well take responsibility.
Hu Liena's talent was exceptional; with proper guidance, she could also rise to greatness.
Oscar only wondered if she would be angry when she learned the truth,but he would deal with that when the time came. He believed he could win her heart with sincerity and strength.
As for future romances, Oscar decided he would take no more wives. Though an emperor could have countless concubines, he did not wish for that.
He wanted true companions who could walk beside him in strength and spirit. Having too many would only hurt both them and himself.
After all, even when he became a god, he could not bring everyone with him to the Divine Realm,that was a rule none could break.
