Sun Wukong pretended not to know.
After hearing the words of Sakyamuni Tathagata, he decided to leave without attempting to become the Jade Emperor anymore.
In an instant, Sakyamuni Tathagata himself was stunned.
Who could have expected that this monkey's face would change faster than the flipping of a book? Just now, he looked as if he was keen on becoming the Jade Emperor, but as soon as the Buddha finished speaking, the monkey changed his mind!
It should be known that Sun Wukong has now let go of such a colossal mistake.
He had burst out of the Helmet Armor Palace, injured the Four Great Marshals of the Ninth Celestial Palace, sending one directly to the Investiture of the Gods, destroyed so many palaces and now injured so many celestial soldiers and generals.
And he still wants to revolt against the heavens.
Let alone the fact that the great monk before him would not agree, even the Jade Emperor would not consent.
