Song Qing didn't expect Ling Chen to pull such a move, and caught off guard, his body immediately lost its balance, tipping forward and plunging headfirst down the slope. But before Ling Chen could rejoice, his expression suddenly changed drastically.

While falling, Song Qing grabbed at his pants, dragging him down together.

For a moment, both men involuntarily tumbled down the steep slope.

Reaching the bottom, Ling Chen shook his head, groggily getting to his feet. Rubbing his somewhat swollen forehead, he silently rejoiced that the steep slope was covered with weeds and few stones; he wasn't battered, and apart from feeling a bit dizzy, everything else seemed fine.

Catching his breath, he looked around and saw Song Qing lying about ten meters away, still conscious. However, during the fall, his Soft Sword had been lost.
