Okay lets go now. *Walks down the stairs* Mother told me that the Song Mansion is at the East of the Capital and I think we are at the east of the capital too. I don't know what the Song Mansion looks like, it probably has a sign that says Song Mansion on it. Hmm since you have a collar on your neck that means you have a owner. When we are done talking at the Song Mansion we can go around the capital and see if there is any paper that says that they lost their cat or something, okay? Meow! Okay! [Song Mansion] Look were here! Lets go, we have to find a man named Song Lan. [Guard] Who are you and what are you doing here? I'm Xuan Yi and I come to see a man named Song Lan. Okay you may come in. Thank you sir. *Picks up Lan Yi* [Maid] Hello young man, I'll guide you to where your going. I want to go see a man named Song Lan. Right this way young man. Here we are at the Master Song's room. Thank you. *Opens the door* Hello sir, are you Song Lan? Yes, who may you be? I'm Xuan Yi and my father is Ming Yi. Oh Ming Yi! I was your father's old friend. It's really sad that he passed away when you were kind of young, it must have been tough for you since your father passed away. Well it wasn't hard for me it was hard for my mother, she loved my father really much. Ah what was your mother's name again? Xuan Jie. Ah okay. Oh right sir, my mother said that you have something to tell me?

Call me Master Song. Okay Master Song. Come and sit down Xuan Yi. Your father, Ming Yi had a journal. He knew that he would die soon from the poison that was in him but unexpectedly he got killed by the Chu's for not giving them money. Before he died he gave me his journel it had all the things he knew or what he found. I read his journal from the beginning to the end. At the end of the book there was a note that said that i have to tell you something when you are old enough to know. I was shocked when the end of the journel was about you. Me!? What does it say on the page!? When your mother gave birth to you, your father held you and he noticed... . What did he noticed, tell me!? ...You have the Phoenix Blood. Phoenix Blood!?
