Chapter 16: Seeds of Discord
The morning sun shone above the Yin Family's home, casting a golden glow on the ground. The air was heavy with darkness. The end of the feast and the mysterious disappearance of the scroll from the library had everyone in a state of confusion. The servants hummed softly, the guards doubled their guards, and the family members walked away unperturbed.
Adam watched everything from the shadows, a satisfied smile tugging at the corner of his lips. this The chaos he sowed slowly grew like a seed, and the Yin family began to crumble under its weight.
As he went about his business, Adam listened silently, taking in the small details and activities of his family.
"Patriarch Yin is angry," one of the servants whispered to another as they cleaned the marble floors. He believed there were spies on the ground.
"Spies? Do you think that's true?"
"Who knows? But the guards Have been ordered to search every corner of the house. They'll even question the servants. "
Adam sent the information, the idea running. The Yin family's paranoia is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it was disturbing and unbalanced. On the other hand, it meant he had to be very careful.
That evening, as the slaves gathered for their small meal, trouble was evident in the air. The previous story faded, and it emerged into a fearful state The whisper of thought
Adam sat in his front corner, eating slowly and watching the others. He also saw the trouble among the slaves. Accusations were beginning to fly, simple but poisonous.
"I saw you last night on the sidelines near the east wing," one slave sneered at another. "What are you doing there?"
"I'm not even close to the East Wing!" The accused shot back, raising his voice. "Don't you dare pin this on me!"
Adam frowned and looked at the seeds The difference takes root The Yin family's cruel rule created an environment of distrust and deceit. All it took was a little push - Adam was more than willing to give it.
After that night, Adam returned to his secluded corner to work on the garden. Scarlet River was doing better than he had expected. With each step, he felt his spiritual power grow stronger and more manageable.

"Argument, huh?" Adam muttered, a wicked grin spreading across his face. - Moving now.
He spent the next few hours thinking of ways to add to the chaos without being noticed. The Yin Family was one A powder keg, and Adam swore he would be the spark that would ignite it.
days later, Adam put his plan into action. He began by manipulating the slaves, making accusations and making up stories in casual conversation.
"I heard the guards found some strange footprints near the library,"
whispered to a group of slaves as he worked. "They think someone inside could help someone outside."
The slaves turned to look at him in confusion, their thoughts racing.
Later, Adam chased the guards, casually mentioning family threats.
He looked innocent, and said to one of the guards, "You'd think the real danger was outside the camp." "But who knows? Sometimes the biggest threats are the ones closest to home."
The guard's face scrunched up, his eyes darkening as Adam's words sank in.
By the end of the day, the ground was rumbling with excitement. The guards themselves were stronger. They asked, and then the servants were divided. Adam looked at everything with great interest.
But he was not done yet. His new move was aimed directly at the family members.
That evening, while the family was in turmoil, Adam went to the patriarch's study. It was not right to take anything. His job was to leave a recognizable mark - something that would shift the blame to another family member.
using a piece of clothing he stole from Yin Friend's Room Adam wiped the edge of the patriarch's desk, leaving a faint trail of his scent.

Sitting in his corner, the Tier 2 Cultivation Tablet glowing in his hand, Adam agreed for a good time.
"This is the beginning," he whispered, swallowing the pill and feeling the energy welling up inside him.
His cultivation increased, the effects of the pill making his progress even more rapid. Adam held his hands, and his inner strength grew stronger every time.
