In short, even though all of his subordinates were very loyal to the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard], but they would still need to follow the order from all the higher-ups.
If the higher-ups of Lizard Clan ordered some of his subordinates to report everything that happened on this mission to them, then his subordinates would not hesitate to tell everything to the higher-ups, including how Tang Li Xue came to their squad and acted as if she was an old friend of their squad leader.
Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] discussed for a while about how they should act in front of the giant lizard squad to not make that squad and the higher-ups felt suspicious toward both of them.
In the end, Tang Li Xue and the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] decided to act as childhood friends who had not met each other for a very long time.
It was actually Tang Li Xue's idea from the novel she read in her previous life. It was a very cliche excuse, but 100% works in every novel story.
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] was already thousands of years old anyway. Having a few hundreds of childhood friends from the other beast races were not strange at all, and it was normal for him to forget some of them.
After discussing it, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] brought Tang Li Xue with him back toward the giant Lizard camp.
Tang Li Xue rode on the back of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] with Yaya and Little Loki, but the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] suddenly said to Tang Li Xue: "Oh, right... Little Lass, you can wear back your fox mask and black cloak right now. You do not need to worry. My subordinates will never dare to attack you with me escorting you here."
"Uh... All right..." Tang Li Xue felt confused at the Fake Dragon's sudden request, but she decided not to ask and wore back her fox mask and black cloak. freeweɓnøvel.com
Actually, the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] also did not know why, but he just felt really uncomfortable and annoyed when all of his subordinates ogled Tang Li Xue's beautiful appearance before. That was the reason why he told Tang Li Xue to cover herself again with her fox mask and black cloak.
It did not take long for the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] to bring Tang Li Xue and her two companions back to his squad camp.
"Eh? Our Squad Leader has come back!" One of the giant lizards on guarding duty exclaimed when it saw the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] landed on the ground near there.
"How about it? Is he coming back alone or..." The other giant lizard immediately asked.
"Yes! I win the bet! Squad Leader really brings that stunning beauty back! Woohoo... Where are your vitality stones?! Gimme, gimme..." The black giant lizard shouted as it jumped in delight.
"Tsk... Squad Leader, how can you betray our trust like this?! We thought you are gay and beauty means nothing to you at all!" The giant lizard team who lost the bet shouted in disappointment.
The expression of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] immediately blackened like a bottom of a pot, while Tang Li Xue almost laughed out loud when she heard their conversation.
"Do all of you really have no other job to do?! All right, then I will give all of you a big job to do! Get ready to sortie in ten minutes! We will attack that humans' dwelling place again!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] shouted with a cold tone to all of his subordinates.
"Understood!" All of the giant lizards shouted at the same time
The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] wanted to brief them on the current situation and told all of his subordinates about Tang Li Xue and her Instructor's plan.
But the flirty giant lizard sneakily asked Tang Li Xue before the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] could do that: "Hi, little beauty! Why do you wear that ugly mask and gloomy black cloak to cover your charming face now? You should have more confidence in yourself and do not need to be shy to show yourself..."
"Eh? Really? But sorry, I can't. Your Squad Leader is the one who told me to cover myself..." Tang Li Xue innocently replied to reject the flirty giant lizard's suggestion.
The other giant lizards who accidentally heard Tang Li Xue's reply stared at the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] with the 'I know what you feel' sign and snickered at him.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... I never know that our Squad Leader is such a possessive guy. He even feels jealous at us when we only..." One of the giant lizards whispered to its friend, but the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] immediately interrupted them with his shout before they could discuss it.
"It seems I give you all too much time! One minute! No one can talk anymore! Or I will punish all of you very harshly!" The [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard] roared in anger.
All of the giant lizards hastened their preparation, and they hastily awoke the other giant lizards who still fell asleep.
In only less than one minute, all of them were already lined up neatly in front of the [Red-Eyes Winged Lizard].
