The instruction itself is its result.

For example, if I wanted to generate code that does a getlemeneptr 
instruction (GEP) and then uses the result of the GEP as the pointer to 
a load instruction, I would do the following:

Instruction * GEP = new GetElementPtrInst (Value, ....);
Instruction * LI = new LoadInst (GEP, "name", ...);
