Chapter 1529: Return of the Heavenly King!

Sanya.

On the beach.

A female tourist was lying down on a recliner and browsing the Internet on her cell phone. All of a sudden, she sat up in shock and shouted for her husband who was swimming in the sea to come over.

"Hubby!"

"Hm?"

"We've won! We've won!"

"Holy shit! Did we really win?"

"HEOR has won the game by one and a half points!"

"What an amazing person!"

"The legend of PeterGo's undefeated record of two years has finally been shattered!"

In reality, the two of them did not know how to play Go at all. They could not even understand the basic rules of Go and were complete laypeople. But just as how a lot of people in China and across Asia were at this moment, the war between humans and the artificial intelligence was something entirely unrelated to them not knowing how to play Go. This was a matter of human dignity, the bottom line of human intelligence that must not be crossed. Be it the Go enthusiasts, professional Go players, or even the everyday person, everyone was paying very close attention to this "Battle of the Century"!

Tian Weiwei, Chen Ying, and the group of Go players happened to pass by at this moment.

He really won?

The game has ended?

Chen Qiqi's eyes became a little wet.

Chen Niannian and several newcomers of the Qiyuan got so excited they couldn't control themselves.

They had been waiting for this victory for too long. It had been far too long!

Chen Qiqi said anxiously, "Aunt, just who is that person?"

Chen Ying smiled. "Aren't we bringing you guys over to meet him?"

Chen Qiqi exclaimed, "What did you say!"

Chen Niannian was also dumbfounded. "Y-You're saying that HEOR is that folk expert we met on our way here?"

The dozen-odd newcomers of the Qiyuan in the group were dumbfounded.

Up ahead, they arrived at the No. 1 Villa Hotel.

Tian Weiwei and Chen Ying looked like they already knew where that person was staying. Without even looking or asking, they headed straight for the villa that was labeled "Villa #1."

The newcomers followed behind in a daze.

How could that be possible!

How could a folk expert with an amateur background possibly win against PeterGo?

Somehow, they weren't very convinced by Chen Ying and Tian Weiwei's claims.

The gate at the villa's yard wasn't closed and was wide open. However, Chen Ying did not go in, and neither did Tian Weiwei. They courteously stood outside at the door and pressed the doorbell.

Ding dong.

Ding dong.

A middle-aged woman's voice crackled through the intercom: "Who is it?"

Tian Weiwei hurriedly said: "Auntie, is Sis Wu around? I am Tian Weiwei."

Then another woman's voice came through the intercom. "Little Tian?"

Tian Weiwei said: "Sis Wu, it's me."

The woman asked: "What are you doing here?"

"Did he come back?"

"Hur hur, who are you talking about?"

Tian Weiwei did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Sis Wu, don't try to fool us. If we can't even recognize that, we're better off dead!"

The intercom went silent.

A moment later, the villa's door opened.

A young man wearing sunglasses came out looking annoyed. He leaned against the door with folded arms and said, "You guys are great, huh? You can even recognize that it's me from a game?"

This was a face they had not seen in a long time!

It was a face that they had been waiting to see for far too long!

Tian Weiwei's face was full of joy.

It was really him! It had been three years, but he was finally back!

When Chen Ying saw the young man, she also got a little excited. But she said, "Do you take us for fools? To have such a level of skill in Go, could there be another person in the world? We would know that it was you even if we had our eyes closed!"

Zhang Ye was delighted. "True that."

Tian Weiwei couldn't hold in his excitement and went forward to give Zhang Ye a bear hug. "We've waited for you for too long!"

Zhang Ye nudged his chin in loathing. "Shoo! I haven't even talked to you yet. After so many years, why has your skill at Go still not improved? You got pushed around by a computer like that?"

Tian Weiwei was extremely embarrassed. "But that's because the opponent is too strong."

Zhang Ye said. "In my opinion, it's all down to your skill not being good enough."

Tian Weiwei laughed and said, "That's right, how could I possibly compare to you?"

Zhang Ye looked at Chen Ying. "Old Chen, you've put on some weight, huh? Seems like age has finally caught up with you."

Chen Ying said angrily, "Get lost, don't you also have several more wrinkles?"

Zhang Ye touched the corners of his eyes. "Do I? I don't think so."

The group of newcomers, including Chen Qiqi and Chen Niannian, were all dumbfounded. Having known Tian Weiwei and Chen Ying for so long, they had never seen Master Tian and Sister Chen look like that before. That person dared talk down to Master Tian? And even said that Sister Chen had put on weight?

Wh-Who exactly was he?

Chen Qiqi said in surprise, "Master!"

Zhang Ye looked over to her. "Yo, Classmate Qiqi."

Chen Qiqi said in disbelief, "Did you really win against PeterGo?"

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Yes, that's right."

Chen Niannian yelled, "Damn, you lied to us!"

Zhang Ye said startled, "Ah? When did I lie to you all?"

Chen Niannian said angrily, "Didn't you say that you were an amateur?"

Zhang Ye spread his hands. "But I am an amateur. I was never a part of your Go world."

Those veteran 8 and 9-dan professional Go players had recognized who he was!

Li Fang had a stunned look!

Zhou Zhen was thrilled!

Only the newcomers looked totally confused.

Chen Ying glanced at her two nieces. "Have you guys managed to recognize who this is yet?"

Chen Niannian said, "No!"

At this moment, a woman who looked as pretty as a painting came out from inside the villa. "Don't make people stand out here. Invite them in."

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Come on in then."

The newcomers were dumbfounded!

Chen Qiqi gasped. "Auntie Wu?"

Chen Niannian was also shocked silly. "Auntie Wu, what are you doing here?"

They naturally knew who Wu Zeqing was.

She was Teacher Changhe's daughter, so how could they not know?

But what was she doing here?

Why did she appear beside the master?

Finally, these idiots realized and almost jumped in fright!

Chen Qiqi pointed at the young man in horror and stammered, "You! You! You! You are Zhang Ye!"

Chen Niannian roared, "Damn!"

A teenager's jaw dropped. "Lord Zhang?!"

Another teenager was nearly left kneeling. "Oh my God!"

Chen Ying said helplessly, "You guys are so stupid. You only just managed to recognize him?"

Chen Qiqi was almost going crazy. "Lord Zhang is my idol! He was my idol when I was a kid!"

Tian Weiwei said in amusement, "Your idol traveled here in the same bus as you, yet you couldn't recognize him?"

Chen Niannian shouted, "We weren't prepared! Who could have thought that something like that would happen! God! It's really Lord Zhang!" She suddenly rushed forward. "Lord Zhang, I love you! I'm a hardcore fan! I listened to your songs when I was growing up, and I also became a professional Go player because of that battle between you and PeterGo years ago!"

A teenager raised his hand. "Me too! Me too!"

A teenage girl shouted, "I'm also your fan! When I was in school, there were a lot of your essays and poems in my language textbooks. We were required by the teachers to memorize them!"

They were all very excited.

Although many years had passed, the memories and nostalgia were all pouring out at this moment!

Years ago, how many people had started liking poetry because of Zhang Ye?

Years ago, how many people had started liking music because of Zhang Ye?

Years ago, how many people had started liking Go because of Zhang Ye?

Zhang Ye: this was a name that could never escape being mentioned during that era!

Three years had gone by in the blink of an eye!

And the former Heavenly King had finally returned!
