The meaning of Xia Hong's words is that her authority as his wife is locked within Xia City, and it doesn't work beyond the city in other territories of Great Xia.
Of course, Li Xuanling is also aware that Xia Hong has done quite well to this extent, so even though she pouted, she didn't say much and continued to follow Han Yue and others into the city.
"Senior Li, your residence is also in the Outer City; I'll personally take you there."
The group hadn't entered the city yet when Hong Yu caught up from behind.
Li Tiancheng was taken aback, clearly not expecting the temporary dwelling arranged for him by Great Xia to be in the Outer City.
"Senior Li, no need to worry. You won't be living cramped with others. The Craftsmen Department has built individual courtyards for each Cold Resistance Level person who came from Long Mountain. Director Qiu said this counts as an advance, and once you have enough Contribution Value, you can repay it at the Camp Supply Department."
