"Honored guests, this is the cabinet for gloves, would you like to see these first or the handwarmers?" He asked with his upper body bent almost parallel to the ground.

"Since we're here already, then let's look at the gloves first." Shen Tianyu asnwered for them both and the shop attendant opened the curtains hanging over the cabinet. He gathered the cloth and put them behind the hooks that were on each side of the cabinet. "Ah this... no wonder..." Shen Tianyu nodded in understanding as the gloves on the cabinet cupboards enetered her line of sight. There were gloves made of various rare materisl, including Golden Beetls thread, Hell Spider silk and hides of special demonic beasts. Certain demonic beasts have an innate ability to store some of their power in their physical body or hides so upon death, a portion of thir power remains in the corpse. However, if left out for too long or not treated approproately, the remaining demonic power will dissipate into the air. These demonic beasts were in a category separate from those with elemental attributes and are usually more sought after than other demonic beasts, as prey. However, only demonic beasts at a high enough level to gain human form can fully digest all the power such demonic beasts hold so even if a low level demonic beast weere lucky enough to consume one, their power level would not rise as quickly as a high level demonic beast that swallowed them. In order to protect themselves, a lot of these demonic beasts have tough hides and skin, which makes the hard to swallow and be physically digested. Combined with their remaining power, it could make for good armor or protective clothing in the case of humans, since their digestive system is not strong enough to digest such demonic beasts and many cultivators are unwilling to stoop to such barbaric levels to raise their power. Another problem is that, though convenient, these demonic beasts practice demonic beast cultivation and not spiritual cultivation so a mix of two different cultivations could cause serious injury instead of raising the human's cultivation level. 

"That's right. Even with the existence of other sects, our kingdom is not to be looked down upon." Rong Jian smiled proudly on the side with his hands behind his back.

"Well, second brother is second brother." Rong Jian shrugged off her question as if that explained  everything. "Are you sure you want that one? It doesn't look very..." He changed the topic, focusing on the glove she was holding in her hands.

"What are you saying? This is a product form your elder brother's Store, how can you slander it like that? Besides, this color is easier to maintain. The ones with fur get dirty at the drop of a hat and are difficult to clean. The gold and silver ones feel like the colors will start dropping like stardust the moment you move them. And the ones with a bony exoskeleton look uncomfortable unless your hand fits them perfectly." She flipped the gove in her hands over and reached one of her hands inside to see how it felt. 

"You just said such a thing but aren't you dissing his items all the same?" Rong Jian leaned a bit closer to see how it fit, making sure to stay far enough away that he wasn't within her personal bubble. 

"Well, I'm your fiancee, at most he's my future brother-in-law. Besides, this isn't distaining his products but explaining to you why I didn't choose the other ones." She nodded in satisfaction at the feeling of the glove and reached out for the other one still sitting on the cupboard. "I'll take this one."

"Wangfei has made an excellent choice." The shop attendant encouraged her decision as he moved to close the curtains. "That pair of gloves is made from the hide of an Arctic Elephant. Not only does it keep you warm and is elastic enough to fit on anyone's hand, it also has a shielding array inscripted on the inside. With the Arctic Elephant's innate power, it can also keep you cool during the high temperature summers of Rikui Kingdom." He bowed and led them away, presumably to the cabinet for handwarmers.

"Mistress, there's an uninvited guest!" A voice sounded inside her head. Xue Lang had been let into the front of the store but was told to stay outside when theyw ere about to enter this section of the shop because the attendant had been worried that some of the items inside might have peeked the spiritual beast's ire and it might cause trouble. While th guard that escorted them stood guard at the door, Xue Lang was wondering around the back to cover the guard's blindspots.
