    Default Was anyone else stunned by Wang Yuyan's beauty?

    Duan Yu is mostly disliked because of his obsession with Wang Yuyan (and her beauty because she looked like the statue). It seems to me that he was the only one that pursued her. Other people, however, didn't care. Some tried to kill her without having a second thought. Murong Fu picked to marry the Western Xia princess, without knowing what she looks like, to restore his dynasty over being with WYY, who is as beautiful as a goddess.

    Unlike WYY, XLN had many who was willing to die to be with her. Of course, WYY was not as beautiful as XLN, but she sure wasn't average looking either. Was DY just a passionate man? Was it because he has not seen exceptionally beautiful girls in his life before, and WYY just happened to be the first one?

    Was anyone else in the novel shocked by how beautiful WYY was, or was DY the only one?

    Neither Wong Yu Yin nor Little Dragon Girl accomplished what the Manchurian princess, Double Fragrance, accomplished in BOOK & SWORD: GRATITUDE & REVENGE. Such was the beauty of this princess that she immobilized an entire army.

    Yeah, I just noticed Jin Yong's top 3 beauties have really boring personalities. While the ones that are not as stunning (but still beautiful) are really clever and interesting (Huang Rong, Zhao Min, Mu Wanqing...)

    The wuxia beauty that I'm most curious about is Lam Sin Yee from Gu Long's SENTIMENTAL SWORDSMAN, RUTHLESS SWORD. Apparently, the only man immune to Miss Lam's charms was Lee Chum Foon. Ah Fei, Ging Mo Meng, Seung Gwoon Gum Hung...they were all vulnerable to her wiles.

    Is that why Crystal Liu Yifei played both XLN and WYY since these characters were supposed to be the supremely beautiful?

    Seung goon not so much though right? It seemed that he was using her for her body more than she was using him.

    Probably. Seung Gwoon got away from her unscathed, but considering Lam Sin Yee's track record, I think he was a fool just for risking it.

    This is the same guy who wanted to see if he could dodge little li's flying dagger just for kicks.

    True. I think Seung Gwoon Gum Hung had a death wish. He seemed to have a good grip on everybody's limitations except his own.
