The black-robed man usually spoke very calmly, but when he said this at this moment, his emotions clearly rose.

Lin Qingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly. "Sect Master has held power for a long time, so you're naturally not unfamiliar with this feeling."

The black-robed man shook his head. "That's different."
