Chapter 70

At this moment.

The bus was in chaos.

Everyone, realizing what had happened, started screaming.

"Ah! The bus fell into the river!"

"We're done for…"

"Help! I don't want to die!"

"Driver, please, open the door so we can swim out!"

The driver, sitting at the front, had already been knocked unconscious by the impact.

Others tried to open the doors, but found that both the front and rear doors were jammed and impossible to open. This was due to the immense water pressure from the river outside, combined with the air pressure inside the bus, creating an enormous force keeping the doors shut.

Several high school students, understanding this principle, prepared to break the windows to let water in and equalize the pressure so they could open the doors.

However, all the bus windows were made of toughened glass, and the window opener had gone missing in the collision.

"We're done for, we're going to be trapped here," one of Wen Xingyi's friends said in a panic.

Many who couldn't swim turned pale with fear.

The elderly woman responsible for the disaster suddenly screamed, "You young people, think of something!"

Hearing this, almost everyone glared angrily at her.

If it weren't for her, they wouldn't be in this dire situation.

A thief in old age is still a thief!

Everyone wanted to beat her to death.

No one paid her any attention…

Chen Ye looked at the woman with icy eyes.

He could swim, and with his enhanced attributes, breaking out and swimming to shore would be easy.

But as for saving others, it would depend on his mood...

Seeing the bus sinking faster and with no one able to find a solution, Chen Ye sighed and stepped forward.

There was no room for being low-key anymore.

In such a situation, staying low-key would be playing with his life.

"Move back, all of you!"

Chen Ye went to the front door of the bus.

"Old Chen, what are you doing?" Jiang Tao asked.

"Opening the door! Saving you all!" Chen Ye replied seriously. "When the door opens, a lot of water will flood in. Hold on tight to the handrails. If you can't swim, close your eyes and hold your breath. I'll try to get you out."

With that, Chen Ye approached the front door.

"Old Chen, don't joke around. The door is sealed shut by the pressure. You can't open it..." Jiang Tao said. "Even if you can open it, you'll be the first to get hurt when the water rushes in!"

The elderly woman suddenly screamed, "No, I can't swim. Don't open the door! Wait for the police to rescue us!"

She tried to grab Chen Ye.

"Get lost!"

Chen Ye wasn't going to tolerate this troublesome old woman. He kicked her, sending her flying backward.

A normal person would likely pass out from such a kick from Chen Ye.

However, despite her age, this woman was quite healthy from all the square dancing she did and only let out an "Ouch" without fainting.

Of course, she couldn't get up to cause more trouble.

No one objected to Chen Ye's actions, and some even wanted to applaud him.

Everyone knew that if they didn't escape now, they wouldn't survive until the police arrived.

Chen Ye didn't waste any more time. He clenched his fist and punched the door.

Boom!

It sounded like a thunderclap in the bus, and everyone's ears rang from the noise.

The door that no one could budge was blasted off by Chen Ye's punch.

Everyone was astonished!

The next moment, a torrent of river water flooded into the bus.

Chen Ye, with his high agility, quickly moved aside to avoid being hit by the incoming water.

"Hold on tight!"

Hearing Chen Ye's reminder, everyone grabbed the handrails and closed their eyes, bracing for the water.

The water surged in, and within seconds, the bus was submerged.

The girls who couldn't swim started flailing in the water.

It was a natural reaction for those who couldn't swim, struggling desperately when submerged.

Chen Ye took a deep breath and opened his eyes underwater. (Underwater vision is possible but limited.)

To his annoyance, he saw that Wen Xingyi and her friends, along with Jiang Tao, couldn't swim.

With no choice, he went over, grabbed Jiang Tao by the collar with one hand, and held Wen Xingyi's delicate body with the other.

Yes, it was preferential treatment!!

Another reason was to prevent Jiang Tao from panicking and clinging to him, which would hinder his movements.

Experienced rescuers know that saving people in the water is dangerous. Those who can't swim will grab onto anything, potentially dragging their rescuer down with them.

When he grabbed Wen Xingyi, she clung to him tightly, her legs flailing.

Fortunately, Chen Ye was strong enough not to be affected.

With these two in hand, he used his telekinesis to pull Wen Xingyi's three friends.

Chen Ye quickly swam out through the front door.

Although his hands were full, his telekinesis acted as a propelling force, pushing him forward underwater.

As for the others...

Sorry!

Chen Ye wasn't an octopus.

With limited ability, he could only wish them luck.

Soon, thanks to Chen Ye, the young people reached the shore.

In addition to Chen Ye's group, an elderly man who could swim also survived, bringing the unconscious driver with him.

Grandpa is indeed grandpa!

As for the troublesome elderly woman...

May she be just as troublesome in the afterlife!
