Calm before storm

The masked knights get together for a night of celebration before starting the battle. HuaiZhu and HongYe plan to take on the battle themselves and leave their friends behind.

I wonder if he would have not tried to bind JiaLan in if he truly knew the outcome, or would he have been like old Yang and done it anyway, vainly thinking he had the power to contain her indefinitely? He is both self righteous and trying to look out for them. HongYe finds the last portion of his father and gets the WangQuan sword.
