Please try this code for reference :

    _name = 'hr.hr'

    employee = fields.Many2one('emp.emp', string="Employee")
    department = fields.Many2one('emp.dept',related='employee.department',string="Department") 
    #related attribute will automatically change as you change employee and fill the department field


# Master of Employee
class Employee(models.Model):

    _name = 'emp.emp'

    name = fields.Char('Employee Name')
    department = fields.Many2one('emp.dept',string="Department")

# Master of Department
class Department(models.Model):

    _name = 'emp.dept'

    name = fields.Char('Department Name')

.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<odoo>
    <record id="employee_form_view" model="ir.ui.view">
        <field name="name">hr.hr.form</field>
        <field name="model">hr.hr</field>
        <field name="type">form</field>
        <field name="arch" type="xml">
            <form string="HR">
                <sheet>
                    <group>
                        <group>
                            <field name="employee"/>
                        </group>
                        <group>
                            <field name="department"/>
                        </group>
                    </group>
                </sheet>
            </form>
        </field>
    </record>
</odoo>
