Revised Chapter 7: Shadows of Discord
Yin Estate was abuzz with excitement, a storm unseen beneath its golden surface. Adams's manipulations rippled through the family, turning whispers into suspicion and gloom into suspicion. However, it was known that these were only the first waves. To break the fragile unity of the Yin Family, he must deepen the entanglements until they were broken.
The night was alive with the sound of cicadas as Adam lay in the shadow of the south. the farm The phantom dagger in his hand gleamed in the moonlight, a reminder of his power. A powerful tool for creating persuasive letters had been a key part of his plans before, and tonight it would come in handy again.
Earlier that day, Adam had seen Yin Hua arguing with one of his most outspoken advisors, Kai Fan. Their heated exchange drew many glances from the guards, who muttered to each other about the growing argument. Adam's sharp mind saw an opening and decided to use it.
With the Phantom Coil, Adam wrote a letter to Kai Fan and Yin Wei. Every word was carefully chosen, the accusations simple but sharp.
"Yin Wei,"
"I am not writing to you out of sincerity, but out of desire, Yin Hua's foolish actions have jeopardized the future of our resources. His cruel actions against the country's resources threaten to destroy us. If you are thinking about the Yin family's heritage, You must act before it is too late. "
The letter
is a simple equation - simple enough not to be immediately dismissed, but vulnerable enough to arouse suspicion. Adam placed it where the most faithful guardian of Yin Wei would find it. The guardian's loyalty allowed the letter to reach the person in the morning.
At noon the seeds of change would germinate. Yin Wei entered the palace, his presence like lightning. The servants quickly looked away, seeing Yin Hua who was blowing the Storm standing by the family altar, his previously proud expression replaced by caution as his brother approached.
"Explain yourself!" Yin Wei shouted, throwing the letter onto the table with the force of the nearby jar shaking.
Yin Hua picked up the letter, her eyes staring into it. His lips curled in mockery, and he shot her a glare at his brother. "That's stupid. A pathetic attempt to drive distance between us. You're not even Is he stupid enough to believe her?"
Yin Wei's eyes narrowed, her voice sharp. "Don't play innocent, Hua. You are accumulating wealth, conducting secret experiments, and cutting me off from house decisions. What else do I believe in?"
"And what about you?" Yin Hua replied with a cold voice and a sinister tone. "Sending behind your father's back, whispering to the guards, always putting me in danger. Don't act innocent."
The conversation escalated, they Voices echoed in the large hall. The servants had been watching for a long time, their ears pricked up to hear every word. The guards moved awkwardly, not knowing where their true selves lay. For the first time, Yin's brother's bond was broken open, a sight for all to see.
Unlocked Price: [Smoke Bomb of Misdirection]
Adam's eyes lit up
as the system message came out. The Smoke Bomb of Misdirection was a valuable tool in his arsenal. It was good for creating chaos or facilitating escape.
That night, Adam met with his growing group of friends in a lonely barn. High in the air of hope, the servants were encouraged by Adam's recent successes.
"The family changes," Adam began in a firm, commanding voice. "But this is just the beginning, we sowed the seeds of disbelief, but now we have to feed them. Feed their paranoia. Create situations where they can't Help but doubt each other when the time comes, they will be too broken to stop us. "
Lao growled. "We will do anything. "
. The other slaves grumbled as they agreed, their fear gradually turning to determination. Under Adam's leadership, they began to see the possibility of freedom—not as a distant dream, but as a real reality.
Adam leaned back with a sharp smile on his lips. His mind raced through plans, one after another. The deception of Yin's last land was not just a prison. This was his playground, turning into a battlefield.
