Lu Wushuang is a fictional character in Jinyong's ''wuxia'' novel ''The Return of the Condor Heroes''. She is best known for being kidnapped by mortal enemy Li Mochou , forced to become her disciple, and for her romantic attachment to the novel's main male protagonist Yang Guo , which was unfulfilled because of Yang's unwavering commitment to Xiaolongnü .
Lu's family was massacred by Li Mochou, as Li sought revenge against a reneged promise of marriage. She escaped from Li after serving as her disciple, and during her travels met Yang Guo, and was attracted to Yang's carefree nature, especially after several close-encounters against their enemies.
Lu also has a cousin, Cheng Ying , who is a young disciple of Huang Yaoshi . Lu and Cheng would accompany Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü in their fateful journey to the Passionless Valley ; and they served to console a mournful Yang after the disappearance of Xiaolongnü.
