The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 4761

After a while, one of the guards slammed Fanny on the back while she was distracted. Her body jolted a few meters backward as she screamed in pain. A couple of guards came at her and sealed her acupoint to prevent her from using her internal energy before she could react.

Zack was overjoyed when he saw it. He waved his hand and said, "Take her down and hang her at the city tower to show the public that she had betrayed Her Majesty."

"Yes, sir!" The guards responded in unison as they accepted the order and tied Fanny up.

"You—" Fanny was furious and shocked. She could see that all the guards around her were Zack's trusted aides. She felt desperate for her situation.

Fanny stared at Zack, "You will not have a good ending." She was dragged out of the main hall before she could finish her sentence.

When the officials watched Fanny taken away, the hall fell silent again. Even the sound of breathing was audible in that silence. The officials exchanged glances, feeling overwhelmed by what had just occurred. 'It is hard to believe that Fanny would betray Her Majesty. Serves her right after her motive was exposed by the Great General. Her Majesty is no longer with us, and since Fanny is captured, who will lead and rule the South Cloud World?'

Zack was happy to see how it all turned out. He smiled and glanced over the main hall. Then, he said, "Since Her Majesty has sunk deep into the ocean and we don't know if she's alive or dead, the South Cloud World should not be without a leader. Why don't we discuss and choose a sage to be the acting Emperor? What do you think about that?"

The main hall erupted in an uproar as the discussion went underway. Zack was right; they could not be without a ruler. Under Quincy's rule, the South Cloud World thrived, and its citizens lived a happy and stable life. The regime would be in chaos without Quincy's presence. However, Quincy had never married and did not leave any heir. Who would be next in line to take the throne?

Just as everyone expressed their views, a military official went to the front and looked at everyone before saying, "Is it necessary to discuss this? Only the Great General is eligible to be the acting Emperor. The Great General has made numerous contributions to South Cloud World. When mountain bandits wreaked havoc in Beishan, the Great General launched an attack and captured the bandits in less than a day. He had also accompanied Her Majesty in the conquering of the Raksasa Tribe. Who else should take the throne if not the Great General?"

Then, the military official knelt toward Zack and said, "All hail the Emperor!"
