This quest turn in is under the gates that you see in the log in screen. Some times the ? on the map shows in the wrong place.

The dialogue has changed for 5.4:
Yu'lon says: Let us draw ourselves together to rebuild this sacred place, the first step toward healing a war-torn world.
Niuzao says: These outsiders have brought chaos to this land. Can we trust them to set it right?
Chi-Ji says: I have faith in our friends from beyond the mists.
Xuen says: Their strength is an inspiration... and sorely needed. We must trust that their hearts are pure.

No... you are not crazy - Sunwalker Dezco is no longer at the gates. Madame Vee Luo (innkeeper at the Shrine of Two Moons) is now the turn-in for this quest... through the gates, down the Golden Stair and hang a left. Shrine will be around the next corner on your left. Upstairs, through the door on the right - she's right in front of you. Don't forget to make the Shrine your hearth because it has all the portals needed to get where you need to go.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Before this quest

Taken from the quest's prerequisites.

A Celestial ExperienceKun-Lai Summit · Level 20-35
The human calf is arguing on our behalf. He is well-spoken; I can see why Baine Bloodhoof regards the prince so highly. Still, the argument does not go well. I am of little consequence, but you are a hero of the Horde. Perhaps you can intercede in our favor?
