Silence!

At that moment, the crowd was silent as they watched the guards take Chang Er away; one could even hear the pin

if it were to drop to the ground.

Even though Yang Jian was the Grandmaster Erlang and had high status, he was still only an official. He had

overstepped his authority and arrested Lady Chang Er—it was a little inappropriate.

However, Emperor Hou Yi’s death was too strange. He had carved Lady Chang Er and Zhu Bajie’s names on the

jade platform before his death.

So, Yang Jian had been impartial, stern, and just when he arrested Chang Er.

“Everyone!”

Yang Jian kept his Tri-point Double-edged Saber with him as he scanned his surroundings. “Even though His Majesty

is dead, the North Moana continent cannot go a day without a leader. Let’s discuss and pick a wise man to take

over the throne temporarily to stabilize the situation!”

Wow!

The entire crowd erupted into a heated discussion.

Yang Jian was right. Emperor Hou Yi had ruled the North Moana continent for a few thousand years. His sudden

death had thrown the entire kingdom into chaos. If they did not pick a new ruler quickly, the situation could be even

more troublesome!

Emperor Hou Yi was an extremely great and powerful ruler; who could replace him, even temporarily?

Suddenly, a petite figure walked forward and knelt in front of Yang Jian. “Greetings, Your Majesty. I am Gonggong, at

your service!”

Gonggong had been reluctant to acknowledge Yang Jian as the new Emperor.

However, she had no choice—Yang Jian’s powers were too strong. She was not his match, so she decided to go with

the flow.

More importantly, Gonggong had her mind on Darryl’s Heavenly Halberd. If she were to support Yang Jian in his

quest to become the Emperor, she would have contributed hugely to that campaign. She would have an easier time

with her future tasks.

“Greetings, Your Majesty! We are at your service!”

Everyone in the cell knelt.

All the other officials were intelligent as well. When Gonggong recommended Yang Jian as the new Emperor, they

followed suit as well.

They were like Gonggong; most of them were unwilling to acknowledge Yang Jian as the new Emperor.

However, they knew Yang Jian’s powers, and he was an upright and honest man. Even though he had arrested

Chang Er, he only did that to investigate Emperor Hou Yi’s death. So, he was the most suitable candidate to be the

new Emperor.

However, three people stood there with a flat expression on their faces as if it had nothing to do with them—it was

Darryl, Celine, and Queenie. Darryl did not care who would be the new Emperor.

Hmm!

Yang Jiang nodded when he saw the officials knelt in front of him. There was no expression on his face when he

said, “Since all of you have acknowledged me, then I shall accept it respectfully!”

Then, Yang Jian turned his head and sized Darryl up. He asked Gonggong, “This is Darryl Darby? He was the one

who released Zhu Bajie?”

Darryl had managed to cause trouble in the Royal City and also released Zhu Bajie from captivity. The news had

spread all over the North Moana continent like wildfire. Yang Jian had high status, so he would have heard about it.

“Yes!” Gonggong responded respectfully.

“Well, he is Darryl Darby—” Yang Jian started to contemplate. Then, he made a decision. He said, “Lock all the three

of them with Chang Er. We will question them tomorrow at the main hall!”

Before Emperor Hou Yi died, he had carved Zhu Bajie and Chang Er’s names.

Darryl had released Zhu Bajie. So, in a way, Darryl and Chang Er were accomplices. Perhaps, Darryl had something

to do with Emperor Hou Yi’s death!

If that were the case, it would be only natural to lock Darryl and Chang Er together.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

A few guards walked toward Darryl, Celine, and Queenie and tied them up.

At that moment, Darryl was almost in tears. He yelled at Yang Jian, “Grandmaster Erlang, oh, I mean, Your Majesty. I

am innocent! I was just passing by. Why are you arresting me? I had nothing to do with Emperor Hou Yi’s death. It’s

one thing to arrest Lady Chang Er, but why me?”

When he said that, Darryl had an innocent expression on his face, and he sounded sincere.
