Sun Wukong had already gone through quite a lot.
While he was shocked by what his senior brother had said, he quickly understood that his senior brother certainly wouldn't be one of the myriad gods and buddhas.
Otherwise, there would be absolutely no need to speak to him.
Moreover, the questions Wang Yang raised at the beginning were exactly the reason he proceeded with caution, and although he was still involved, it was clear that much had changed.
Without Wang Yang's input, he might have fallen into a trap by now.
"Then, senior brother..."
Sun Wukong went from shock to calm, and then looked at Wang Yang with unrest.
Although Sun Wukong was now convinced that Wang Yang wouldn't harm him, he was still a bit worried; he did not want to believe that his respected senior brother would also be against him.
As such, he simply couldn't bring himself to speak up.
