Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

Meanwhile.

The outside world burst into an uproar!

Because of what Xiang Rong had said over the live broadcast, the entire world was stunned!

…

In the Online Go Server.

"What?"

"What did Master Xiang say?"

"That person who can beat PeterGo has returned?"

"Holy motherfucking shit!"

"Surely that can't be true?"

"Are you serious? Is that for real?"

"Ahhhhh!"

"What are you all talking about? Who is he referring to?"

"Damn, previous poster, are you dumb? Who else could he mean!"

…

At China Qiyuan.

Li Yi said in surprise, "Teacher Changhe!"

Wu Changhe insisted, "Impossible!"

Hu Liang said, "Even Master Xiang has said that it's him!"

Wu Changhe said, "Would I not know if my son-in-law came back?"

Then a call from Tian Weiwei arrived.

Tian Weiwei said: "Teacher, Lord Zhang is back!"

Wu Changhe replied: "That can't be!"

"He's right beside me."

"What?" He nearly flared up: "That rascal, get him on the phone right now! Immediately!"

"Ah, Lord Zhang says that he's not around."

Wu Changhe got very angry at that. "Little Tian, tell him he can stay at Sanya if he wants. If he dares to come back here, watch how I'll punish him!"

Xu Han slapped his thigh. "I knew it! I knew it must've been him!"

Hu Liang laughed heartily. "Teacher, don't chide Lord Zhang. Lord Zhang has done our Go world another big favor. If it weren't for him, we would never have beaten PeterGo. We couldn't beat it four years ago, and we still couldn't beat it four years later!"

Wu Changhe harrumphed, "Bullshit! There are lots of talented people in the Go world! Would the Earth stop spinning without him?"

Li Yi chuckled. "I don't know if the Earth would stop spinning or not without your son-in-law, but the truth is that the Go world has not been moving forward at all in the past few years."

…

In the Korean Go world.

"That person is back?"

"I should have known it was him!"

"Yeah, how could an expert like that possibly pop out of nowhere!"

"It's really him?"

"It's almost definite!"

"That fellow isn't a good character, but his Go skill is truly crazy. After four years, even the upgraded PeterGo can't beat him?"

…

In the Japanese Go world.

"It's him?"

"He hasn't played Go in so long, but he can still play so well?"

"I wonder if this hooligan's return should be considered a good thing or a bad thing!"

"When they arrested him back then, the whole of Asia was overjoyed, thinking that this hooligan would never be able to cause any more trouble. But seeing him back today, I don't know why my blood seems to be racing with excitement. No matter what his reputation is, everyone still has to admit that the Go world could never have beaten the AI without his help."

"I'm also thrilled today."

"This hooligan can be so loved and hated at the same time!"

"Hai, the king has returned, and his ways are as glorious as ever."

…

America.

PeterGo's team.

That familiar name was ringing in their ears once again, giving everyone a sense of despair!

"Zhang Ye!"

"That can't be possible! Wasn't he sentenced to seven years in jail?"

"Yeah, why has he been released?"

"And why haven't his skills regressed at all?"

"Even Peter could not beat him?"

"To think we've even upgraded the system too!"

Anger.

Despair.

Helplessness.

These were the emotions the team was experiencing

…

At Youth Daily.

Someone in the editorial department let out a shout.

"Something has happened!"

"What's the matter?"

"Zhang Ye has come back!"

"Ah? How?"

"This piece of news came from the Go industry! It's basically verified!"

"Hurry, follow up on the news! Be sure to get a firsthand interview!"

"God, has that fellow really returned?"

"How many years has it been?"

"It's already been three and a half years."

"Time really flies."

…

At Beijing Television.

In the news department.

"Where is he currently?"

"We haven't found out yet, Producer!"

"Quickly go and check then!"

"Right away!"

…

At Yao Jiancai's house.

Old Yao, who was drinking beer at this moment, stared dumbfoundedly at the TV. The beer can in his hand had dropped to the floor and he hadn't even noticed.

The door was pushed open.

Yao Mi, who had graduated from university, rushed in and exclaimed, "Dad!"

Old Yao's wife also rushed over. "Old Yao! What's going on?"

Yao Jiancai smiled. "That kid, he's finally back."

Yao Mi said excitedly, "Is it Uncle Zhang? Is it really him?"

Yao Jiancai said, "Who else could such a big stir other than him? This fellow has never been one to hold back. He's only just returned, but the entire world has already found out!"

Yao Mi belly laughed. "That's exactly what can be expected of my Uncle Zhang!"

Old Yao's wife said with a sigh, "It's been so many years. I wonder how Little Zhang is doing."

Yao Jiancai pointed at the television. "As you can see for yourself, he's still alive and kicking!"

…

At an old friend's house.

"Zhang'er is back?"

"That fellow is too much. He didn't even tell us that he's back?"

"He's still as capable of stirring things up as ever."

"Hahaha, quick, give him a call to ask if it's really him."

"It won't go through. His cell phone is off."

"Well, it's been almost four years. I suppose his number has been disconnected?"

"Let's wait til he gets back to catch up with him."

"The entertainment circle is gonna be lively again from now on."

"Yeah. An entertainment circle without him around always feels a little less exciting than it should."

…

At Zhang Xia's house.

Grandma Zhang was on the phone with someone.

"Yuanqi, Zhang Ye is back."

"I just heard about it."

"Aren't you going to make a comeback?"

"Forget it, I think it isn't too bad taking a break."

"Us old friends should hold a gathering sometime. I wonder if the kid will be getting back into the entertainment industry now that he has returned. Who knows? He might just have become tired of that place like you and decides to take a break from it as well."

"He's not the type who would want to take a break."

"Is that so? Then I guess we're probably going to see some interesting developments."

…

At a company.

It was very noisy in the office space.

"It's Zhang Ye!"

"What a nostalgic name!"

"Is he really back?"

However, Ha Qiqi, who was also in the office, started laughing. She was laughing so exuberantly she was tearing up. Then she took a deep breath and lowered her head to sort out the matters she had on hand. After that, she started typing out something on her computer and sent out an email. She stood up and walked towards the boss's office.

Knocking on the door.

Entering the office.

The boss looked up. "Director Ha."

Ha Qiqi said something stunning. "CEO Han, thank you for taking care of me these past few years."

The boss gave a wry smile. "I knew that this day would come."

Ha Qiqi smiled. "I've already sent my resignation letter to you."

The boss said, "What would convince you to stay?"

Ha Qiqi shook her head.

The boss sighed. "The entertainment circle is no longer the same as before. Times have changed, and a new generation has replaced the old. The fame that Teacher Zhang once enjoyed is a thing of the past. If you go back now, you'd have to start all over again. You—"

Ha Qiqi smiled and interrupted, "Then I'll just start from the beginning."

…

At a private clubhouse.

A dinner event.

Several rather popular B-list "young hunks" were holding a party.

"Did you hear? Zhang Ye is back."

"That name sounds like a blast from the past."

"Yeah, no one has mentioned him for the past three or four years."

"He was taken off the Asian Celebrity Rankings Index, as well as the Chinese Celebrity Rankings Index, since around that time too, right?"

"That's right. Be it the Chinese or the Asian Celebrity Rankings Indices, he doesn't have a spot on them anymore."

"Even he's a former Heavenly King, we still shouldn't underestimate his popularity. If he decides to return to the entertainment circle, he will definitely have some appeal. But as for how strong his appeal is, I guess no can really be sure."

"That's not necessarily true. This is no longer the same era as when he left the industry."

"You're right. So what if a former Heavenly King has returned? The entertainment circle has been seeing a generational change every half a year to a year these days, so let's not mention what changes have taken place in three years. Or four years. Who can remain popular forever? What's more, he hasn't appeared in front of the audience during this entire period. The young people these days won't acknowledge him."

"Speak softer. His wife is Minister Wu, after all. It wouldn't be good if this conversation gets out."

…

In China and abroad, heated discussions were going on.

The media and the citizens were all relishing it.

After more than three years, an almost forgotten name had once again shaken up the world!

That biggest hooligan of the entertainment circle and that greatest shit stirrer of the industry—he was back!
