Chapter 282 The Clingy Sickly CEO's Deep Love Is Unstoppable 40

Chaoyao and Ruo Fufeng continued to do charity activities for a period of time, and the public gradually came to know that Chaoyao’s "stupidity" was most likely cured.

Of course, there are also those who do not believe it, such as other branches of the Zhuge family.

But it doesn’t matter, they don’t dare to jump.

After more than half a year, Chao Yao also began to prepare to patch the loopholes in the world where the system was located.

One night when Zhuge Fufeng was away on a business trip, Chao Yao was alone at home and called out the system.

"Tell me, what should I do?"

"It will take us a long time to leave this time. Would you consider faking your death?"

The system was a little unsure when it said this.

It knew what Chao Yao had done for the child. If he suddenly died at this juncture, it would be a huge blow to the child and Zhuge Fufeng.

"Oh, it's obvious that I won't agree to this request."

Chao Yao took a sip of tea and sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a look of disdain.

"Then what do you say we should do? We can't keep dragging it out. If the loophole is not fixed, my world will be in danger." The system's voice was a little anxious.

Chao Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment and then said, "I can go with you, but this matter must be kept secret from Zhuge Fufeng. During the time I'm away, you have to find a way to create a virtual image of me so that he will think I'm still living a normal life."

"This is very difficult, and if discovered, the consequences will be disastrous."

The system was in a dilemma. Chao Yao could actually do this herself, but it was obvious that she didn't want to do it.

"Is there no other way? How about I tell him the truth and ask him to keep it a secret for me?"

Chao Yao frowned. She was actually not sure what Zhuge Fufeng's true identity was. If she used some tricks to leave, what if his real body went crazy?

Upon hearing Chao Yao's decision to give up, the system quickly objected: "No, he will most likely not agree to let you go. The risk is too high."

"Then let's set a shorter deadline, such as half a year. I must come back within half a year. During this period, you must do your best to ensure my safety and not let my family find out."

The system cannot be completely certain about the time it will take to patch the vulnerability, so it cannot make any promises about it.

So the system hesitated: "Half a year is too short, I'm afraid the loophole cannot be fixed."

"Then it will be one year, no longer. If I am not back after one year, you must find a way to send me back, regardless of whether the loophole has been repaired or not."

Knowing that this was Chao Yao's last resort, the system responded helplessly: "Okay, we can only try this. But you must be careful, there are many dangers along the way."

"Don't worry, for the sake of my family, I will return safely."

The system is fully aware of the difficulty of this mission, and it begins to prepare a substitute for Chao Yao with all its strength.

After several days and nights of hard work, they finally created a substitute that was almost identical to Chao Yao.

This stand-in not only looks and acts exactly like Chao Yao, but even his behavior is imitated perfectly.

On a dark and windy night, the system came to Chao Yao's home.

"Are you ready?" the system asked softly.

Chao Yao took a deep breath and nodded: "Well, let's go."

The system opened a portal that shone with a strange light, illuminating the entire room.

Chao Yao took one last look at the familiar environment and resolutely stepped into the portal.

The moment he stepped into the portal, Chao Yao felt a powerful force wrapping him tightly. The surrounding scene became blurred, as if time and space were distorted.

Her body flew forward involuntarily, with the sound of wind whistling and the system's constant reminders coming to her ears.

"Keep calm, we'll be there soon." The system's voice sounded in Chao Yao's mind.

After an unknown amount of time, the light gradually dissipated, and Chao Yao found himself in a strange and mysterious world.

When Chao Yao stepped into this strange world, an atmosphere of desolation and deathly silence hit him.

The sky was filled with a thick haze, presenting a dark gray-black color, as if endless darkness was about to press down, making people feel extremely depressed.

The sun's rays seemed to be completely swallowed up here, and the whole world was shrouded in darkness.

Looking around, the earth was as dry and cracked as a turtle's back, with bottomless cracks crisscrossing each other, as if they were scars left after the earth's painful struggle.

There was not a trace of green, not a single blade of grass or tree, only flying sand and dust all over the sky, making it almost impossible to open your eyes.

The mountains in the distance no longer have their majestic outlines. The peaks have collapsed, and the rocks are exposed, looking even more hideous under the erosion of the strong wind.

What may have once been fertile land has now turned into a desert, devoid of life.

The river has long dried up, with only dry sand and rotten fish bones left in the riverbed, as if telling us that the life and prosperity that once existed have disappeared without a trace.

Occasionally you can see some dilapidated buildings, with broken walls swaying in the wind, like ruins forgotten by time.

The air was filled with the smell of decay and death. There were no birds singing, no insects chirping, only the sound of the howling wind.

This desolate world seems to be a forbidden zone for life, making people feel desperate and helpless.

Looking at all this, Chao couldn't help but feel sad: "Is this the world you live in? It's so dilapidated."

The system's voice was also full of helplessness: "That's right. The existence of the loophole has caused the world's energy to gradually drain away, leading to its current state. We must fix the loophole as soon as possible to save the world."

"I thought it was the same world as the one where the lightning struck the wood. I didn't expect this to be even worse than the previous one."

Chao Yao set up a barrier for himself. In this desolate place, he was really afraid that some inexplicable things would appear.

She walked cautiously in this desolate world.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up the dust all over the sky, forming a huge sandstorm vortex that roared towards them.

"Be careful!" The system's urgent voice sounded in Chao Yao's mind.

Chao Yao's eyes focused and he quickly cast a spell, trying to resist this powerful force.

However, the power of the sandstorm was far beyond her imagination. It instantly broke through her magic barrier and sucked her into it.

In the sandstorm, Chao Yao felt as if she was in a chaotic world, with sand and rocks all around her constantly hitting her body.

She endured the pain and mobilized the golden elixir power in her body to form a solid protective barrier around her body.

But the impact of the sand and rocks became more and more violent, and cracks began to appear in the barrier.

Chao Yao secretly thought that something was wrong. She knew that if the barrier was broken, she would be seriously injured.

At the critical moment, Chao Yao calmed down. She concentrated her mind, circulated the golden elixir, and gathered all her strength in her hands.

She made seals with her hands and muttered something. A powerful golden light burst out from her hands, instantly illuminating the entire sandstorm.

This light contained a powerful purifying force, and wherever it went, the sand and stones disappeared.
