Looking at Wu Kong, who was thrashing about, Di Tou didn't know what to do. Logic told him that the correct thing to do was to shoot out the Spirit Needles and temporarily suppress the Yin Body so that Wu Kong wouldn't be in danger, but if he did so, all of his efforts up to this point would be for naught.
After all, the whole point was to try to help the Yin Body. Shooting them… didn't seem like a great idea. Although he had already done so earlier, at the very least, that was when they could resist, so it seemed a bit more okay..? Looking at Wu Kong's eyes, Di Tou shook his head and decided to shoot out the needles. Although it was perhaps a bit cruel to BeiDou, it also wasn't fair for him to risk Wu Kong's sanity over his own intuition and the little bit of progress that had been made. Waving his hand, Di Tou shot the spirit needles at Wu Kong, spacing them three seconds apart to minimize any potential damage, only to quickly pull them to a halt in midair.
