Kayue Town's civil affairs building, located right in the center of the small town, faced the town square. It looked ordinary, but it was exceptionally clean and chic. The man who greeted the trio was a middle-aged man who seemed very kind. Seeing that the Chinese young man had bought Dolly Ranch, he did not show any bias, offering only enthusiasm and politeness, and his service was very attentive and thorough.

Wang Xiaoqiang thought he was just a government employee, so he didn't pay much attention to him, until after the paperwork was completed. The middle-aged man shook Wang Xiaoqiang's hand and said, "Mr. Wang, feel confident in running the ranch and make a good life here, and if you encounter any difficulties and need help, just ask..."

Wang Xiaoqiang was taken aback for a moment, thinking to himself that this employee was speaking out of turn. How could a mere civil servant say such a thing? Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's stunned look, Mikoer quietly reminded him, "This is our town mayor, Mr. Charles..."

"Uh, Mayor, hello, I apologize for my oversight..." Wang Xiaoqiang really hadn't expected that this person, who looked no different from an employee, was actually the town's mayor.

However, such an approachable mayor was indeed a rarity. On the way back, Mikoer gave him the scoop, "Wang, do you find the mayor easy to talk to? Actually, he isn't just easy to speak with. He is extremely polite to every rancher, or rather, to every big tax-payer..."

"Uh..." It was then that Wang Xiaoqiang remembered another sharp issue: taxes in the United States were incredibly high. It was a stark contrast to the cheap land.

After buying Dolly Farm, Wang Xiaoqiang also received his Green Card.

It was a cause for celebration.

That evening, Mikoer took Wang Xiaoqiang out to a bar in town. Kayue Town wasn't big, with only two bars. They went to one nearby called Willy's Bar. The bar wasn't large, but it exuded the style of the country bars Wang Xiaoqiang had seen on TV. Despite its size, the bar had everything, with Whiskey Soda being the main attraction, accompanied by engaging DJ music. Next to the bar, surprisingly, was a billiards room. Since it was the weekend, the place had a decent crowd, creating a lively atmosphere. Mikoer, a beautiful girl, drew attention wherever she went. As soon as she entered the bar, she attracted many men's gazes. Many there knew Mikoer and that she never dated. So, when she suddenly brought a Chinese young man into the bar, surprise mixed with inevitable jealousy ensued.

"Jack, didn't you say Mikoer doesn't date guys? Now she's brought a dude in here, and he's a yellow-skinned monkey..." a bearded man said to a tall and burly young man.

"Yeah, Jack. Are you not as good as that yellow-skinned monkey?" someone chimed in, deliberately taunting Jack.

"Haha..." The crowd laughed.

The tall and burly young man named "Jack," under the mockery of the crowd, stared red-eyed at Wang Xiaoqiang and Mikoer.

Jack was one of Mikoer's pursuers, and one of the most ardent at that, but she had rejected him. Mikoer seemed to have no interest in men and turned away all comers.

Jack had thought she might be a lesbian or psychologically troubled, so he had given up. His pursuit was known to several of his friends and even to some regulars at Willy's Bar. Now, seeing Mikoer bringing a Chinese young man to the bar and getting cozy, Jack's pride was on the line. Looking at Wang Xiaoqiang's small stature, Jack's rage was uncontrollable, and he wanted nothing more than to tear Wang Xiaoqiang apart.

Without saying a word, he picked up a beer bottle and walked over to Wang Xiaoqiang and Mikoer.

Mikoer and Wang Xiaoqiang were discussing future plans for Dolly Farm when suddenly, they saw Jack staggering over with a beer bottle. Jack arrived at their table, slammed the bottle down heavily, then glared menacingly at Wang Xiaoqiang and demanded, "Mikoer, what is this yellow-skinned monkey to you?"

"He's my friend…" Mikoer said, looking somewhat panicked. She knew that Jack had some Kung Fu skills and liked to assert his dominance aggressively. With a penchant for violence, she feared he would target Wang Xiaoqiang, who in stature was no match for Jack's nearly two-meter frame.

"Friend? I thought you never had boyfriends?" Jack's gaze shifted back to Mikoer, "And now you bring this yellow-skinned monkey here to disgust me..."

With that, Jack's yellow-haired hand furiously grabbed Mikoer's slender white hand, "Stand up and explain yourself to me..."

But before he could finish his word, "chu," he felt his arm tighten suddenly, then a searing, powerful force, like an electric current, grip his arm tightly, almost crushing it.

It was Wang Xiaoqiang, who feared the big man might harm Mikoer, grabbing hold of his arm in time, with a burst of Aura of Geng Metal energy.

Jack screamed sharply in pain and immediately let go of Mikoer's hand.

The bar's lively atmosphere paused for a moment as everyone stared bewildered in their direction. Jack's friends watched, eyes wide with shock; it was inconceivable. How could the strong and muscular Jack, who resembled a bull, scream out in pain from the grip of a seemingly weak Chinese man? It was too unbelievable and humiliating. If Jack couldn't regain his dignity, he would never be able to hold his head up in town again.

Mikoer was also amazed at Wang Xiaoqiang's strength, her beautiful blue eyes fixed tightly on him.

"What the fuck, did you use something sneaky on me?" Jack simply couldn't believe that Wang Xiaoqiang was that strong; he was convinced Wang Xiaoqiang must've used some trick.

Wang Xiaoqiang let go of his arm and shook his hand in front of him, "Kid, watch carefully..."

Seeing nothing in Wang Xiaoqiang's hands, Jack was stunned and confused but still didn't believe that mere strength was enough. He sneered, pointed to an open space outside the bar, and said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "If you have guts, let's have a little sparring session outside..."

"Wang, don't bother with him... let's go..." Mikoer grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang's hand, ready to leave. Regardless of whether Wang Xiaoqiang's show of strength was real or fake, she didn't want him to fight Jack. She was afraid Wang Xiaoqiang would get hurt. Jack, known for his violent nature, would not let Wang Xiaoqiang off easily if he got the upper hand. Even if Jack didn't kill him, he could leave Wang Xiaoqiang crippled.

"Think you can leave? No way, unless you crawl under my legs…" Jack spread his legs apart and pointed at the space beneath him with his finger.

"Fine, I'll take you on, but I hope you don't regret it…" Wang Xiaoqiang broke free from Mikoer's grip and walked straight out to the open space outside the bar.

This indeed made the room full of Americans take a second look.

Jack wore a triumphant sneer on his face as if he had prevailed, muttering annoyed, "Alright, I'll go finish off this yellow-skinned monkey."

Mikoer was extremely nervous and pulled out her phone, ready to call for help the moment things went south.

Jack walked out to the open space outside the bar and stopped opposite Wang Xiaoqiang, and the two squared off.

All the eyes in the bar were riveted on the pair. With his height of over 1.9 meters, Jack was considered a big guy even among American men, his muscular build making him look like a brown bear at that moment. In contrast, Wang Xiaoqiang was only about 1.7 meters tall, which was considered short in the United States, and compared to Jack, he simply seemed too weak.

"Jack, if you can't handle him, you might as well just pee on yourself and drown in it…" said the man with the mutton chop beard loudly.

Upon hearing this, Jack's fury erupted, and he took it out on Wang Xiaoqiang, reaching forward to grab him by the collar of his neck. Just as he was about to lift Wang Xiaoqiang up and slam him down hard, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't hesitate to punch him in the abdomen.

The Aura of Geng Metal burst forth.

Argh~

Jack cried out in pain, then released Wang Xiaoqiang, clutching his stomach and staring intensely at him with eyes filled with shock and extreme humiliation.

"I told you you'd regret it. I'm giving you a chance now," Wang Xiaoqiang said contemptuously. "Apologize to me, and I'll let you off. Otherwise, I'll knock you down and step on your face… hard."

"Jack, you coward, you can't even deal with a yellow-skinned monkey…" the mutton chop man yelled, seemingly reveling in the chaos.

Upon hearing himself referred to as a "yellow-skinned monkey" again, Wang Xiaoqiang's anger burst, and he pointed his finger toward them. He simultaneously drew out a needle-thin strand of Metal Element Spiritual Energy.

The needle-like Spiritual Energy shot directly into the open mouth of the mutton chop man and struck his throat, feeling like a needle was piercing the tender flesh there.

Argh~

The man with the mutton chops let out a muffled cry, then began coughing while covering his mouth. He then inserted his hand into his mouth, constantly digging around in a comical and pitiful display, as if he had a fish bone stuck in his throat.

The others witnessing this were baffled and a sense of awe washed over their faces. How could this young Chinese man do this with just a point of his finger? Could he be an Immortal?

While Wang Xiaoqiang was dealing with the man with the mutton chops, Jack, having regained some of his strength, seized the moment Wang Xiaoqiang was distracted. He bent down swiftly, grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang's legs, lifted him up, and with a mighty heave, hurled Wang Xiaoqiang's body against a wall.

Jack's brute strength and extraordinary endurance manifested in the throw, catapulting Wang Xiaoqiang into the air. But as he grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang, his hands were also struck by the backlash from the Aura of Geng Metal within Wang Xiaoqiang's body. Now his arms were tingling as if electrified, a numbing and throbbing pain that was unbearable.

Wang Xiaoqiang's body sailed through the air as if weightless, ending up crashing hard against the wall.

Bang!

After a heavy thud, there was silence.

If Wang Xiaoqiang had been any weaker, his very life would be at risk!

Everyone in the bar rushed outside to see what happened, with Mikoer in the lead. Her heart was in her throat. She ran to Wang Xiaoqiang, intending to help him up, but before she could reach out, Wang Xiaoqiang rolled over and got up on his own.

There was none of the bleeding from the corner of the mouth that they had expected, none of the injuries all over the body, none of the screaming in pain, none of the gasping for breath…

Instead, there stood an unscathed Chinese young man. Wang Xiaoqiang was still full of life and vigor. At that moment, they all remembered a saying: The indestructible Little Qiang! (To be continued.
