Internet Account Keeps Coming Back after deletion on MacOS

Today I tried to delete an inactive Internet account on system preference. It was deleted successfully but come back again after 20 seconds. This drives me nuts.

I tried these methods, but none of them works.

Boot in safe mode, delete account.
Delete record in ZACCOUNT table in ~/Library/Accounts/Accounts4.sqlite.
Delete related items in Keychain Access app.

Later, RedHatDude’s answer gives me a clue, it looks like a iCloud sync problem. I tried to delete the account on my 3 MacBooks together. Thank goodness! It does not show up again.
