If you happen to walk out of the place like i accidentally did don't turn around and run back.
You will end up in the instance instead of where you should be.

At the bottom of the stairs to the left of the temple you'll find an NPC called Elder Sage Wind-Yi.
Speak to her, she'll give you the option to go to the temple.
And port you right back to where you should be.

Hope this helps

Description

Do you like fireworks, sir? I love them! In older times we would set them off to frighten away demons, but I just like them because they're pretty! I think there are still some old launchers lying around the temple. Would you go set off some big fireworks for me? It would make me so happy!

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.
