Emerging Talent is a Wandering Tale in Where Winds Meet that sends you across Qinghe on a small errand for Yan Cangfeng, an old man waiting in Harvestfall Village. The quest revolves around delivering a box of incense ash, then quietly following up on what he does with it.
Quick answer: Talk to Yan Cangfeng at the eastern entrance of Harvestfall Village, retrieve the Strange Wooden Box from the broken cart south of Bodhi Sea, hand it over, eavesdrop on him during the Zi hour by the western graveyard, take the Secret Letter he leaves behind, and return it to him the next day to complete the Wandering Tale.
Where to start Emerging Talent in Qinghe

Emerging Talent walkthrough
Note: Steps 3 and 5 depend on adjusting the clock. If Yan Cangfeng is not at the graveyard or in the hut, re-set the time to the Zi hour or to the following day before checking again.
Emerging Talent rewards
Handing the Secret Letter back to Yan Cangfeng closes out the Wandering Tale and grants the following:
| Reward | Amount |
|---|---|
| Echo Jade | 20 |
| Qinghe Exploration | 10 |
| Character EXP | 1,500 |

You will know the quest is done when the reward summary appears after delivering the Secret Letter and Emerging Talent no longer shows as active in your Wandering Tales log. From there, you are free to continue with the rest of Qinghe’s exploration content.
