How to find a Flesh Lily in Phantom Blade Zero and complete the quest
Yu'er wants you to find a Flesh Lily to help her father in Phantom Blade Zero
Finding a Phantom Blade Zero Flesh Lily for Yu'er is one of the first quests you'll get in the game, but it takes a long time to complete. Yu'er says she needs one to make a medicine that can help her sick father but has had no luck, so that's where you come in. The problem is that there is only one Flesh Lily in Weeping Creek Valley, you can't get it for at least another couple of hours, and it's guarded by a tough boss. But it's worth finding as this quest becomes more important later, so here's everything you need to now about finding this Flesh Lily in Phantom Blade Zero to help Yu'er.
Phantom Blade Zero Flesh Lily location
You can find a Flesh Lily in the Phantom Blade Zero Hua boss fight arena. This boss is found near the Valley Sha-Chi Tower, which is towards the end of the Weeping Creek Valley region – you'll reach the tower just by progressing the story, but Hua is not found on the main path.
To get to Hua, Deadly Betrothed, start at the Valley Sha-Chi Tower 1st Floor Bell and run to the opposite side of the tower, bearing right. You'll come across a large hole in the floor with a wooden slide. Ride the slide down and, once you've killed all the enemies at the bottom, take the path covered in red flowers and candles to your left.
To get the Flesh Lily you must defeat Hua first (unfortunately, you can't just grab the lily and dip) which is quite a tricky early-game boss fight. My advice is to avoid the red flowers as much as possible and use this as an opportunity to practice parrying and dodging, particularly to avoid her brutal grab attack, but there are detailed tips in the linked guide above.
Once Hua is defeated, grab the Twin Flesh Lilies blooming from the corpse in front of her dresser and then use the nearby Flesh Lily Fields Bell to fast travel back to the Outpost Bell. Speak to nearby Yu'er and hand over the Flesh Lilies. Since she needs only one, she'll insist you keep the other.
The quest isn't over but there's nothing more to be done in the Weeping Creek Valley for it. So, make sure you've also wrapped up as much as you can of the Phantom Blade Zero Whence The Weeping and Phantom Blade Zero Festering Secret quests too. You should also try fighting the Phantom Blade Zero Gold-Masked One at the Long Pillar.
Phantom Blade Zero Flesh Lily quest walkthrough
Now that you've got the Flesh Lily, there's not much more you actually need to do for the 'Flesh Lily' quest in Phantom Blade Zero since it all ties into the main story from this point. Regardless, here's a breakdown of all the steps:
- Progress through the game's main story to reach Pangzhen and go through the town's first area. You'll eventually see a cutscene in which Yu'er is killed by Blaze, Shadow Warden Captain.
- Defeat Blaze – a cutscene will then play showing Yu'er's corpse getting abducted by the Herald – and then collect the Crimson Flesh Lily left behind by Yu'er.
- Continue following the main quest through Pangzhen and you'll eventually reach the Backstreets area. You can wrap up the Phantom Blade Zero Four Fierce Axes quest as you move through the town.
- Work your way through the Backstreets to get to Yu'er's father's house – this isn't an easy journey as you have to fight the Phantom Blade Zero Gu Wanyue boss on the way and there's a tough cavalry boss right outside the house.
- Speak to Yu'er's father, then give him the Flesh Lily.
- Keep talking to him until he hands over the Blessed Jade Pendant Accessory.
With that, you've completed the Flesh Lily quest, which also happens to be part of 'The Heart's Trail' main quest. Not long after this, you'll also unlock the Phantom Blade Zero Flaming Mane Phantom Edge, allowing you to burn down bramble branches that block various paths throughout Pangzhen and even some of the regions you've previously visited.
Make sure you also help Yu'er in the Crimson Forest with the Phantom Blade Zero A Healer's Mercy quest.
