~ Ming Xin inner thoughts after his self-exile |
Background
Ming Xin is a young monk who is always seen wearing white Buddhist robe that is free from even a speck of dust. His first appearance happen when he and his master had come to the Eternal Peace Empire to "block the gate" of the Eternal Peace Academy for 3 days or less if he loses to someone in a fair fight. He lost to Qin Mu and became friend with him. Later, once the Disasters hit the Eternal Peace Empire, because of his association with Qin Mu, he is the victim of bullying and discord of other monks, so he leaves the Rulai Monastery to learn more about the world but as he saw the suffering of humans, the inner devils of monks and ordinary humans alike who would resort to cannibalism to even eat their children or how a father and son were killing each other for food in these hard times. At the same time, seeing how the "true" monks have shut down their gates and live well while the mundane world suffer and is like a hell, he decided to join the army and help as many people as he can while cultivating to become a true Buddha that will bring salvation to all.
